This is my first reaper project. I posted a work in progress before, but I think its done now. I could remaster if needed. It started out with verses, but after I tried tracking vocals, and reminded myself how much I can't sing, it became an instrumental. So now what were verses got sliced and diced into short little parts. I appreciate any suggestions with arrangement, mix, etc.. registered reaperite Project name is Erosion Code

k235 thanks for the reply and the props :). I dont think I understand about the timestretch. If you happen back to this thread, can you elaborate on the timestretch? I dont have any actual timestretching in there. There is a tempo change (120 to 60bpm), and some reverse snares that have an odd effect (those I like). There is also some edits that I was a touch worried about. Maybe you are hearing them and if so I have some work to do. Anyway, if you can detail what your hearing I really appreciate it. Thanks again!

sorry, i meant pitchshifted. :) the chord change with the guitars at the very beginning (~0:00:07, maybe f>e?) sounds like it "wasn't there" in the recording but was added later (split and pitched down?). similarly at ~0:00:26. the other riffing sounds fine (on my speakers) if you did the pitch shift on purpose, by all means leave it that way. it sounds a little too artificial for my taste, but that might as well be the desired effect. plus im not knowledgeable in reaper enough yet to know if there are different pitch shift algorithms, if so, might wanna try one of those. and maybe i'm mistaken altogether :)

Gotcha, it actually was performed in the different key, however that part has an edit where a section was removed. I had the "verse" sections playing two sequences of each position. It is the edit you are hearing I believe. Thanks for the explanation. The edit must be a bit unnatural. Ill chew on it for a bit and hopefully come up with a solution. This was the original composition (unmastered) ****************** maybe the cut section was too soon? Anyway, thanks for letting me bend your ear on this

k235 I think I know what your talking about. After the "punches" its a keychange going into the "stacatto" part. Thats an intentional quirk :)

MichaJo thanks! Believe me, the ability to just shred gracefully like Yngwie, Petruccie etc.. is a goal of mine :) I seem to be able to shred in short spurts only. lol thanks and Im glad you enjoyed it

Composition - awesome Execution - awesome Mix - Very nice as is. I hope it doesn't really fade out. Does it? This could be mixed a few different ways depending on target audience. IMO The drums are a "little" low for me. Would 1 dB up on drums cause the bass to disappear?

This is good shit, Maynard. Great riffing, great sound. Nice choice of leads. Here are some things I'd do -- not necessarily that you'd do them. 1.) I think the drums could be louder. Not a lot, but enough to give a little more power to the mix. 2.) The drum programming in many places is very good. In others pretty basic. It's particularly noticeable on the transitions. Were this mine, I'd spend a few hours really tweaking the velocity levels and working on the transitions into and out of key changes. But, I could listen to stuff like this all day. Good stuff!
