[MikeStudies]

Nice tune man!

@MikeStudies Thanks man!

[soldo212]

Nice, good song

[satanicmelon]

very good dude :) its something not quite normal normally people compose and its emotionless this is really deep music keep it up. all i might say is have you considered getting a proper drummer to accompany you cause then you could have something that music producers would buy. anyway nice tunes keep it up.

hey man i was wondering if you could tell me how u uploaded ur song on myspace. I have riffworks and it says i have to much MB for it. Can you tell me how to upload it?

[bigsponge]

Hey. When you mix the song out of Riffworks, it turns into a WAV file which takes up more MB than MP3 file. So you gotta turn it into an MP3 file. I use the free recording software called Audacity to import the WAV in it and then I export the WAV as an MP3. It will give you options to what type of file you want to export it as.

Thank you!!

[MichaelERutherford]

No Problem man :)

[EricMaldonadoMusic]

Great song!! 1 tip for bass emulation, get a clean setting on your POD, roll down the tone on your guitar all the way down, switch to the neck pickup. That will get you as close as you will get with an electric guitar.

[bigsponge]

Thanks!! I never really thought about doing that. I'll try it!

[22aj11]

i have a question- how do u make the backround music? it sounds so amazing. you have sooo much talent my friend =)

[bigsponge]

Thanks!! I have this recording software where you can record drums in one track and add guitar to it on another track. And then lead. You can do it with any software. The drums were built into the software I used which was Riffworks. But I also have a drum machine that I use. :)

[JoeyGinorio]

Great job, what makes originals good is whether they are actually "original" and don't sound like other songs. This song had a great diverse tone. Keep up the good work.

[bigsponge]

Thanks alot,i really appreciate that!!

[JaymzRG]

wow dude you're really great! i really like your technique and style! keep up the good work! 5 stars and favorited!

[bigsponge]

Thank you!!

[DiaryofaMadman1982]

I freaking love your tone man. You rock!!!

[bigsponge]

Thank you!!

[keymaster2]

Is that a drum machine you used?

Nice song Chris. Keep up with the music and one day it'll take you places. How much have you spent on gear and audio editing programs?

[bigsponge]

Thanks man!! I have a drum machine but in this song I used the built in InstantDrummer in the Riffworks software i have.

[keymaster2]

I never got use to hearing drum machines. Being a drummer its just so fake and annoying. Especially the ones that have snares that sound like banging on a trash can, I hate those. Your pretty much the only guitarist I know that doesn't play metal. Don't be afraid to experiment.

[pollin]

Cool One Man,but there is missing bass!! and also the drums could have a lot more of work,keep rocking!

[bigsponge]

Thanks!! Ya that's what i'm saving up for right now, as soon as i get one im gonna add the bass in it.

[LaiYouttitham]

That was awesome man!

[bigsponge]

Thanks!!
