BTW: what rhodes soundfont is it? Sounds good.. Let's say we got you two piano players Pa and Pb and we have some melody instrumentalists I1, I2 (or whoever wants to chime in). Then we could do it like this: Head (with some Pa stuff in the background) Solo Pa Solo I1 (more soft Pa stuff in the back) SoloI I2 (Pb takes over now in the back) Solo Pb Head (with some Pb stuff) Ending [which i'll come up with sometime. maybe just a fade out on Ebmaj7 Abmaj7 Ebm7 Abmaj7 rep. :)] I'll rerecord the thing with click track again, so my shoddy timing doesn't throw you off so bad and that there's some reference timing available (in case anyone wants to play around with sequencers and drum computers). I'll play 4 choruses with space for solo in the middle.. Then everyone can blow over them (take 1, 2, 3 or 4 choruses or copy and paste for more if you please. On both of your recordings (Josh and Atte) i thought: "damn, why does it have to stop already?"). If we can't play together live we can as well make use of hd recording technologies (usually i'm not a too big friend of click tracks). So everyone just record something over it that you like.. Then in the end i'll cut it together :) BTW: the changes i posted are wrong. This is the corrected version: A: ||Ebmaj7 | |Bbmaj7 | | |Am7b5 |D7 |Gm7 | | |Cm7 | F7 | Dm7 | Gm7 | |Abmaj7 | | | | |D7 | | | || A': ||Ebmaj7 | |Bbmaj7 | | |Am7b5 |D7 |Gm7 | | |A7 | |Dsus | | |E7 | |A7 | || Regards, Flo P.S.: This is the plan: I put the click on i.e. 200 bpm in ardour, but don't export it with the audio.. Then i encode the audio to .ogg (for bandwidth) and someone else downloads it, converts it back to .wav, imports it in ardour and sets the click to 200. Will this work? Does the .ogg encoding and decoding alter the timing of the audio stream in any way? -- Palimm Palimm! http://tapas.affenbande.org
