ScrewMaker Remix of Sol Skugga's "Share Tonight"

Check it here:

ScrewMaker Remix of Sol Skugga's "Share Tonight"

This mix was done in Pro Tools 8.

Sol provided Drums, Bass, and Vocal Stems.

Used some of the original drum tracks layered with the new drum tracks during the choruses.

Used the original synth bass layered with a new bass from Xpand. They played tag throughout the song.

Added an arp using Motu's MX4, a super gnarly synth !!!

Drums programmed using Structure with a bunch of old AKAI sample libraries, a couple of loops chopped up on individual tracks, along with the proverbial 808 Kik 'O' Doom and some Crashes from my Secret Stash of Gnarly Samples.

Guitars were mostly tracked thru MainStage using various Logic amp sims and Waves GTR Solo.

Used a hotrodded Strat thru a Boss pedalboard with goodies such as Dunlop DimeBag modified wah (thanks Geno Lenardo from Filter !!!), Boss Turbo Overdrive, Distortion, Comp, EQ, Flanger, Phaser, Chorus, Tuners, and a Dunlop Volume Pedal.

And of course the E-Bow !!!

Mostly used Digi EQ and DDL, TL Space, BombFactory LA-2a, Fairchild, and JoeMeek EQ and Comp, T-Racks EQ, Maxim, and Nomad Factory Analog Trackbox for the mix.

Gnarly !!!

Blinko, Blanko.

iZotope RX

I've been working on a project lately where some stuff needs to be cleaned up. Bleed on microphones and stuff.

I'm using this: iZotope RX

Very impressive. It's like Photoshop for audio cleanup. Pretty darned idiot proof too. LOL. Check out the demo.

As you were.

YellowTools Independence

I've been checking out this sampler a bunch lately. Stoopid powerful. Awesome to program.

I've been using it for drum kits and crazy processed, arpeggiated synth and bass lines.

And the starter version is a free download: YellowTools Independence Free

Carry on.

Route 66 Studios

Have an older cool guy Ensoniq, Korg, Roland, etc. synth or sampler needing parts, manuals, drives, etc.?

Check out this: Route 66 Studios

Cool Dude. Cool service. Knows his shit !!!

That is all.
