korn thoughtless cover

[Thailandyr]

wow! great work man! good guitar, good singing, and the overall result sounds awesome. i actually like it better than the original, since I've heard it one too many times :)

and for the guys that are criticize the singing : you should pierce your eardrums, since your hearing is useless anyway.

[Alan2496]

Hi there Thailandyr, much appreciated. This seems such a long time ago now, when I was teaching myself singing, bass and home recording to do these one man band type videos. It's good to look back on and I'm glad peeps are still enjoying it. Thanks man :)

[jessefan19]

Hey Alan2496, you sir have gotten my respect to this cover, and its takes ALOT of talent to get me to be listening, or to give respect to the person doing the cover, but not as much talent as it does when its a KoRn cover, and your cover is great. Good job, and keep up the great work.

[Alan2496]

That really means a lot jessefan19. Thanks for taking the time to comment mate, Cheers :)

[kornmario]

[carlisson2010]

very very NICE !

[Alan2496]

Thankyou very much carlisson2010!

[james3220]

great vid alan :D. I was just wondering, do you use a software to make you voice like a "walkie-talkie effect"? or is it sony vegas plug-in? Cause if it is sony vegs.. what plug in to put?

[Alan2496]

Hi james3220, many thanks mate. I don't edit any audio with sony vegas, I just make the video with that program. The "walkie talkie" effect (good description btw) was actually just a vocal preset in the gearbox software that came with the toneport ux2. I added some slight distortion and a bit of eq. I think for this song it sounds best to sing it "dirty" but I just wanted to try something a bit different. Even singing through a guitar amp with some dist will give a similar "megaphone" sound.

[james3220]

@Alan2496 thanks for the tip. :D

[lunaticmusicmaker]

Excellent job, man!! A+++ L\m/\m/

[Alan2496]

Thanks very much lunaticmusicmaker! \m/

[EddKonnekshun]

Hey Edd, Really appreciate that mate, I'm just happy with the amount of peeps that did like it tbh. Cheers pal :)

[Kekhamei]

hiányzik az erő a hangodból...

[dargelos21]

youre voice is gay, best go play to barby´s smallsister

[Alan2496]

you can say what you like about my voice dargelos21, but don't diss my barbie collection ;)

[james3220]

@Alan2496 Why are you trying to make fun of Alan?

You think it's funny

What the fuck you think it's doing to him?

He will not be drowned

(Alan will not be drowned)

By your thoughtless scheming.

sheees.. trolls these days. :D

[IzzyElonCantu]

Dude what program do you use to record yourself, you know how you have segments of yourself in videos, i've been looking everywhere i can't find shit!

[Alan2496]

Hi there IzzyElonCantu. I record each individual video, and then use a program called "sony vegas" to create the multi screens. Any video editing software that has a multi screen function should do. There are many tutorials on youtube for vegas and mutli screen creation in general. Hope that helps

[Khazanah]

Superb Vocal, I was expecting some clean vocal on this one but this is superb. :)

[Alan2496]

[ShadowCrowX]

wow this cover just grew per second! guitars layered up then you added vocals too, good stuff. what was the keyboard needed for? I didn't hear it much, unless it was filtered with the same riff as the rhythm guitar

[Alan2496]

Hi there ShadowCrowX , I was just showing how I tapped out the intro drums on the keyboard, it wasn't used for anything else in the song. thanks mate

[ShadowCrowX]

@Alan2496 OH haha I didn't even notice that. Again Good job on the double vocals, but how come Munky's octave powerchord parts?

[grizbazzen]

thankyou very much fedmans , cheers from the UK :)

[DeftonedKornKid]

Haha, this is prob my 3rd, 4th time commenting this vid again, It's great! I think I'm just gonna go ahead and favorite it this time! Man, you're really good and have a lot of talent. Major props! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Your voice is really unique. It's not JD's, but it's something killer of it's own! Any advice on using a pick on bass? You're good at it. but using picks is the hardest thing 4 me to do on bass.

[Alan2496]

Hey there mate, I really appreciate you taking the time to comment, It seems ages ago now since I did this vid and when i watch it I just see all the mistakes he he, but to recieve feedback like that from a big Korn fan like yourself means a great deal my friend, thanks very much Zac!

[Alan2496]

As for the pick I notice you have a great finger/slap technique, looks really natural. I would pick an easy picking bassline, maybe the line from hey man nice shot, nice alternate picking one and just use it as a warm up for ten mins before you play , and build it up slowly. with your skills mate you will have it down in no time. Thanks again buddy, cheers :)

[TheSarahJane1992]

Wow! Very nice!! Continue the good work!!

[Alan2496]

Good work dude! It's always nice to see people putting effort to do stuff all by themselfs. Too bad the mix is so muddy because especially your vocals are really good. If you need any tips for home recording, I'd be glad to help with what I know.
