Journo's Backing- So It Is - Jim's Take

Had a lot of fun with this one Journo! I put a little light rhythm track in on one side of the track and a slow hand solo over it. Great Steely Dan type of tune!

Thanks for the backing track!

My Take:

Jims take over So It Is

Thanks Norm! If you ever feel like coming by the shop on a Wednesday night for a little jammin let me know. You know how to get there! Just call me first to make sure we aren't skipping a night.

We're planning a Katrina benefit concert with a few other bands at the Laguna Town Hall, hopefully EOM. When things develop further I'll let you know. This is probably something that should be an ongoing effort on our part. I could not think of a better thing to do with our group.

Thanks Mats! That vice was just perfect! Loved the tune.

Thanks! Hey, I see you are in my neck of the woods. I checked out your site and noticed you had a track where Norm did a solo over my backing "Down Here On The Ground". He sure got some sweet tone out of that nylon! Funny how stuff gets around!

Thanks again!

I always get a bit embarrassed by the fact that I'm just using a pod pro and fiddling around with it to try to get something reasonable out of it. The pod seems to record really well and from there I usually tweek the tone a bit more in Sonar by using the EQ and a little lexicon stereo spread to thicken it up. All very non-scientific monkeying around on my part compared to the awesome efforts I hear from the greats that frequent the board.

I once saw a thread here that had pictures of folks gear. I could not believe it! There are some real serious gearheads here! I'm just glad to pull off what I can and not get laughed at with my meager setup! LOL

Thanks,

Jim

 

Hi Mats,

Thanks for the encouraging words! I have a number of backings at this address:

Hope you like them!

Thanks Buddy! I put this up over at Wholenote too with the backing and your solo. I think Chris Pinto is going to give it a try. A little bit of advertising for you! LOL

Sometimes I luck out on finding decent settings on the POD. Speaks well for the POD actually because I really don't spend much time trying to tweak it.

Glad you liked it!

Hi Mats.

Not to steer you away from this great site, but wholenote was where I first found the AAT or BT as you call them. The site is
www.wholenote.com. I put your backing up in the announcements forum which is where most of the member track stuff happens. It would be great to see you there!

Here is the link to the announcement:

Journo's Track at Wholenote

I think you are becoming famous there!
