    The Roth Army All Star Band Jams thread..

    This is where we'll put it all together. We have the concept, now it's finally time to make it happen.
    There's a lot of talented members here and it's time we had some fun with this. Once the grooves,keys and delegation of parts are agreed on, we'll need some basic rules.

    1. Once a basic drum track has been laid down and passed around, it's entire length cannot be altered. Reason: to keep the count in preserved and it will make it easier to sync to when loading and aligning the track/s into each of our recording stations to play along (As we all tend to use different DAW's). Same goes for any other instruments or vocals...

    2. All tracks to be recorded @ 24 bit/ 44.100 sample rate.

    3. All tracks should be recorded dry. VST's should only be added @ the mixing stage> of course myself and Jay will be adding cabinets in post tracking via Recabinet. ( The Recabinet option will be available to anyone who opts to go direct with their guitar or bass tracking).

    Well that's a start. I'm sure we'll add rules as along the way...

    As for "producer/mixer/mastering guy", I will throw my hat in the ring . I have my own studio running Nuendo 2 (upgrading to N4 very soon) and I have the time to put in to dedicate to the cause... (Jus' sayin')

    Discuss....
    Trolls take heed...LOG OUT & FUCK OFF!!!

    Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

    Let's start with idea's. Chef made some good points regarding the diversity of the songs (based on 3 for starters)...

    Also, time frame per song. I think, seeing as we're all over the world, I think once the ball gets rolling we should allow 1 month per tune.
    Damn, in 10 mths. we could have enough material for a release. I bet we can assemble an album's worth of material quicker than VH...

    It's gonna be cool to show the diversity of ideas and talent of us Roth n rollers...

    The thing is les, I'm not altogether certain if I could track my parts, let alone convert them from my 4 track to digital, which is about all of the equipment (4 track, bass and amp) I have left after the divorce.

    my problem would be the fact that i use a zoom mrs802 stand alone daw. i could bounce your tracks onto my machine, then produce a track which would synch up...or bite the bullet and get a cracked pro tools... or i dunno. tell me what you think, guys. also, we're going to end up with too many guitarists just like irl so maybe allocating a pair of guitarists for each song, or perhaps pick a key and a style and whoever comes up with the best peer voted riff or....geez i dunno. anyway, i'm definitely in.
