I need help!!!

 

Somebody on here (who shall remain nameless) originally said that if I sent him the gp5 file of one of my songs that he would lay down the acoustic guitar and drum tracks for the song, then hend it back to me for completion. Well, he changed his mind at the last minute, and now I don't have a drummer or acoustic guitarist for this track.

 

Another member on here has offered to play drums for some of the songs, but he would be coming up with his own stuff, where as this song has the drum parts already written.

 

If somebody could help me out on this, I would be most helpful. It's purely a volentary act, however, because I haven't any extra expenses to offer payment at the moment, but I will give credit to whoever helps me out in the liner notes of the song in question.

 

Take care, my friends.

Yes, let it be known that The Pessimist is indeed helping me out with my project, and I am very grateful to him.

 

BUT.........

 

I still need someone who could lay down a drumtrack that follows the drum notation I've already wirtten for this particular song.

 

I wouldn't even mind it if the drums were programmed, just as long as they sounded real and followed what I wrote accurately.

 

Such a dillemma. I wish I knew how to do all that stuff myself, but I just don't.

 

Well, the only reason I have chosen to not hand this particular song over to my other drummer friend is because I think he likes to come up with his own stuff rather than play what someone else has already written for him, which makes perfect sense, and I'm fine with that, but in this particular case, I have written all of the song's parts myself already and I already have an image in my head of what the song will sound like finished, and to hear it with completely different drum parts wouldn't serve the song well, in my opinion. In the future, I plan on leaving the rest of my songs unfinished enough to where the folks that are collaborating with me can have more creative input involving their own instruments' parts, but this song is already done, more or less (Except for some piano work that I will let my friend The Pessimist come up with).

 

I know it's probably a bit prideful of myself to wanna stick to exactly what I wrote in the drum department, especially since I'm not a drummer myself, but yeah . . . I'm young yet, so hopefully I'll grow out of my narcissism before too long.

 

Erhm . . . no offense, but those drumtracks in the link you sent sound pretty fake. I mean, I'm not at all aopposed to you helpoing me out with this, but I wouldn't want to feel like it was all a big waste if I hear the result and decide not to use it.

 

It's up to you. If you still wanna help me out, then let me know and I'll along the download link to the GP5 file.

 

Peace and love.

 

I will give my drummer freedom on every other song I haven't already written the drums for, .

 

So I take this as a 'no', then?

 

 

Now on to the other matter . . . anyone here wanna help me out with the acoustic guitar parts? Not the entire song is made up of acoustic guitar work; I can play all the electric guitar stuff, but you see, I don't have an acoustic of my own, and the clean sound on my electric guitar doesn't cut it (I already tried recording it that way, and even when the awesome drum sounds from Alan included on the track, it just doesn't sound as warm or full as it could if an acoustic were playing those sepcific parts.

 

Not to worry; the acoustic guitar parts are very easy to play. Anyone who has read the score for this song obviousely knows what I'm talking about. Just basic chords and rhythm structures, nothing too awfully difficult.

 

If no one volenteeres, then I will just ahve to wait until I can get an acoustic myself. Not a huge problem; but it would be very appreciated of course if someone would be willing to help.

 

Any help whatsoever in the acoustic guitar department would of course be appreciated, and all the due credit will be given as well. Though, I've already layed down the acoustic guitar tracks for my first song.

 

However, there is plenty of room for acoustic guitar in this project of mine, and since only one song has been recorded so far, there is still plenty of room for input from other people where all of the instruments are concerned.
