Tune in 4 hours started by a free guitar amp VST
I had some time without the family today while the wife was attending a baby shower with my daughter and the teenager was wandering around with friends. So I was bored and decided to look for some freebie amp sim VST's to get some new guitar tones. A YouTube video filled with some really metal sounding sims led me to look up and find one to download. I stumbled across this page: http://pvdhp7.wordpress.com/That thing is very metal and not too versatile, but it sounds OK for it's purpose, particularly with the gain way down. I started playing around with the tone and ended up riffing some stuff out, which led to tracks, which led to layers, which led to a song. No loops, little editing, the fretless P-bass, typical Wogg drums and sound completed in about 4 hours. https://soundcloud.com/paul-graves-1/hot-biscuit Here's a bit more about the Sonar setup: Sonar X2 Studio Waves Renn v9 plugs for compression and EQ All live tracked into old school M-Audio Delta 1010 input Modest AMD Phenom II X3 setup, required under 20% CPU to do the whole thing

Nice jam Paul. Love the drum sound on this. Bass is quite dominant in the mix, the wide panned guitars could come up a fair bit I would say. Timing is a little 'sticky' here and there, but pretty darn good for 4 hours!

Excellent observations James! There's a simple explanation: I'm primarily a bass player. Anyone who doesn't mix bass strong is doing it wrong  That also contributes to the little timing slips here and there, I'd have to give up and pull in some better drum and guitar players to lock it down more solid, but I really have a ton of fun trying to keep up with it all myself.

Nice jam! The parts play against each other very well. Isn't inspiration a kick?

I think there's someone "up there" been waitin' to send that one down. I just had to jam along. Sometimes the quick and dirty ones are THE BEST. I agree with James, the wide panned guitars need more.

Thanks peeps. I'm working on a new mix, but Soundcloud isn't cooperating to post it. I'll update when I can. I think I made the kick punch harder and thickened / brought up the guitars.
The drums aren't "vintage", but may be good 20 years old now. The heads are getting pretty vintage though :)
