PauBass Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 [quote name='Happy Jack' post='396018' date='Jan 31 2009, 11:03 AM']You've just opened my eyes to a whole new world of jargon and acronyms! What the hell is [i]seeding a torrent[/i], can anyone do it, and is it considered impolite to do it at the dinner table?[/quote] I have no idea to be honest... but don't worry, we don't need to know that. All you have to do is here: - Click on the link: [url="http://www.gearslutz.com/board/gear-shoot-outs-sound-file-comparisons-audio-tests/348908-all-rock-band-songs-individual-tracks-learn-pros.html"]http://www.gearslutz.com/board/gear-shoot-...learn-pros.html[/url] - Now you are on the 1st post of that thread. - You have to download the "Download #1", which has 8 different parts to it. You just click on each link and download them directly from Megaupload. Only problem here is that Megaupload only allows you to download certain amount daily and, with just the first part, you exceed that amount. What you can do now is to switch off and back on your modem/router after you've downloaded a part... by doing this you'll get a different IP address everytime and you can download as many times as you want. - You need to download all the 8 parts before trying to extract them. Once you have them all, extract the first part, entering the password provided by the guy, and that's it. - It's a slow process and it takes time but it's well worth the wait...You have 269 songs! To open the songs you'll need a software, I'm using Audacity which you can download for free directly their site. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eight Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 [quote name='PauBass' post='396040' date='Jan 31 2009, 11:35 AM']You need to download all the 8 parts before trying to extract them.[/quote] Get Linux. Xarc can extract files from the parts you have downloaded. i.e. I have parts 1 - 4 and got the tracks out of that even though 5 - 8 are still downloading. Had quite a laugh with them so far. Open in Audacity, mute most of the tracks and jam away. Must have played Livin' On A Prayer a hundred times yesterday - or tried to at least. Bit harder than it looks.

xilddx Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Fascinating as they are, I think this sort of thing would make any musician feel like they were walking naked in the streets of Riyadh. Isolation of something is to reveal its flaws, and people passing judgment on things like tone, timing, errors and erroneous noises outside the context of the whole recording, is a bit weird. Would you isolate the rice from a risotto and tell everyone you think it tastes bland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do what sounds right for the BAND, so you have to learn to compromise your tone, so that it fits in with what everyone else is playing. The sound I use for practising at home is FAR removed from the sound I use on Stage. Just use this facility the way you would use tabs. It helps you find out exactly what the guys were playing on the recording, and you can put your own stamp on it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
51m0n Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 If I'm recording my own stuff I definitely listen to it in near isolation - cos I like to know its right. But thats the advantage of doing things in your own time. A lot of this is actually recorded to a budget/deadline, so that kind of thing goes out in favour of the right feel and 'did it go ok for you?' In fact the only time I have heard of people really scrutinising individual tracks in isolation was Stu Hamm being pulled apart when recording for Steve Vai (a bar at a time apparently) - but then Vai was never into groove above precision I guess (and he's clearly a twerp!) This stuff is fascinating, but seems to miss out on something important, and that is what was done to the raw track during mixdown, ie gating out rubbish, and any other clean up that might have occured.... ....cos these sound like raw raw tracks to me! Still a great resource, and Flea is seriously tight sounding in Give It Away, superb groove that (wish I'd come up with it!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll list them in bands Alphabetically, and update this first post when more tracks appear.
