dogs: pink floyd "cover" part one

by Mark: Best Pink Floyd song ever, Gilmour is the king!

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older
And in the end you'll pack up, fly down south
Hide your head in the sand
Just another sad old man
All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone
And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone
Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everythings done under the sun
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a pat on the back
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
Who was dragged down by the stone.

Did you really make the drums with Guitar Pro? GP's drums sounds shitty :/ or did you change the sounds with another software?

[MrMjhdP]

@totomgs Hey Thomas, thanks for asking. I made a midi file in GP and used it in my Cubase mix. Used Toontrack superior drummer 2.0 to make it sound Like that. Take care.

***** FAVORITED *******

~m~

[MrMjhdP]

@Marco262a Now I feel blessed and privileged too, thanks for that Marco!

Cool!

[videoprototype]

wow, nice effects! you made this? 5 star stuff man!

[totomgs]

@MrMjhdP Oh ok, thanks!

[MrMjhdP]

Software: Guitar pro for study and creating a midi file for the drums and bass. Cubase for mixing, Trilogy on the bass, Toontrack on drums & Reason for the synths (abbey roads). I played the guitars trough guitar rig and versions of Amplitube. Effects are from Nomad Factory and mastering is done with Tracks de luxe.

I hope this answers your question.

[MrMjhdP]

Promise you won't make fun of my sound card being a Creative Audigy Platinum EX with an external drive. I think I've got this one for about a decade now.

Cool stuff. A lot of your bends sound flat. Im not sure if it was on purpose or not.
