Guitar is cool, the drums well....
 
Did you try running the drum parts out to different tracks and using some other toys to tailor the sound some?
 
Thanks for sharing.

Clint, I like the tune a lot.  I'm curious as to why you use would Melodyne on the bass.  Bass sounds good but seems a bit choppy or staccato.  What are you using for bass? If it's a synth would you like to have a live bass track some time?  Your music is good, Clint.  Keep 'em coming.

I used a bass for bass! I used melodyne because this was a quick one take kind of deal and it wasn't played very well Hahaha! I didn't do a lot of work with melodyne...maybe 10 minutes.
  You can play bass on anything you find interesting...It would be fun. I'm going to redo this song from scratch I think, add some vocal and maybe...a beginning and an end! When I get it close enough to play along to I'll send it your way if you want. It would give me a reason to try the gobbler thing...I haven't registered for that yet.
 
@Wookie...I didn't separate the tracks like I should have. I didn't add anything to the basic session drummer midi at all. It was only going to be a click track to play along with and try the new toys in X3. In hindsight I should have done a lot different, but it shows the Tape sims off for those who may be interested in them. I also have Klanghelm SDRR on the bus in desk mode, but it's not being pushed to hard. I do have Valhallaroom on the drums as it was new to me as well. I bought 3 new plugins along with X3...so I was using them all and trying to learn the ins and outs of each plugin. By accident I ended up liking this for the old sound I think it has. Sounds like a live band screwing around at practice or something.

I don't know how my response became part of your quote?

Hi Clint.  Good stuff on this one.  This is a nice song and your guitar playing is excellent.  I understand what people are saying about the drums but I am a bit of an odd duck.  I'm always looking for a retro-live performance Blues sound.  I guess it reminds me of the quality of the 78's, 45's, and 33's that I listened to as a kid.  Your production is great but that tinny sound of the drums -- to me --- gives it that kind of live performance feel.  Now a good vocal that overdrives the mike would give it a good retro feel.
Great number -- keep them coming.

Thanks Freddy! That's what I was liking about it. That older sound...

As said. A kicking guitar and a nice warm groove but a really odd snare tone. lol
Very dry rattle and separated from the rest.
Again, excellent licks.
