Abbey Road #9 - You Never Give Me Your Money - The Beatles

It's funny because I was checking this project yesterday to see if there was anything new. Jason, your vocal tracks are simply amazing. As soon as you hear "You never give me your money," the magic happens. Really. Thanks for the update :-)

jdOzman - Beautiful Jason - thanks so much for subbing those vocals. The puzzle is coming together!

Hi Rob, doesn't matter to me, 'unlisted' and 'Private' don't 100% work as they should. As soon as there's a comment, it is seen in Comment-Feed.

@YvesC: haha I didn’t know that Yves! Had an unlisted collab get 8 views and I was like, whaaaat?

Comments can be a problem.

Yes. A bit of a surprise for me. Is that tempo change on the original recording or some kind of YT or digital processing artifact that got added?

Very nice tracks, btw. Top notch as usual.

@Bob : Thanks Bob, your track is excellent too. It was a surprise for me too when I realized that the lenght of the BT was a bit longer than the original. I first used the original and some AI to remove the guitar from the mix for recording purpose. I wanted to work with the original to compare the tone and the relative volume of the guitar parts of my mix with the original mix. I then realized that my records couldn't be fully in sync with the whole duration of the BT. There was some kind of slipping as the song progress. I made some comparisons and found that the BT duration is longer, 100,08% of the original. I then stretched the original to that amount and then BT and original were in sync. I had to redo all my tracks. Strange.

Hi Claude, can't you stretch-edit your tracks ?

@YvesC: Hi Yves. Audio I can. Video I don't know. But it's done now.

I could have stretch the video for you. Would work better if your source is >15 FPS. Next time :-)

@YvesC: Good to know. Thanks!

@Claude : this isn't the first time I've experienced tempo glitches on Bandhug. It doesn't happen often but there have bern song that I'm playing to and into and all of a sudden I'm not on the beat, so I cancel and start again and sure enough it happens again in the same place. I usually catch it right on the third try but there should not be a tempo change like that in a song. I think republishers of unofficial YT videos that are copyright protected fiddle with them to get by the algorithm.

hotpico - Claude, I recorded to the BT as reference and I think we sound ok until the very end as the fade becomes more extreme. Do you think adjustments need to be made? We also need some water-filled china and crickets for the ending lol

@CyberBass: Fantastic track Rob! And the sound is very Beatles esque. I love it. The ending is going to be hard to achieve correctly. I reversed the original fade out to hear correctly what was going on and try to follow the original groove. But having everyone in sync will be probably impossible. We will have to shorten the fade out I think.

@Claude : Thank you so much! I spend waaaay too long on my tone lol. Even bought a new pedal. Joyo American does a decent Fender Bassman AND I put some insulation under my strings near the bridge for that dead sound. I think I will just fade out the whole combined track when we are done uploading and mixing. Not sure yet how I will do that. Or I will fade out each track individually and re-upload

hotpico - Claude, the tone, the video edits, the guitar work, the audio edits! You set the bar my friend that was absolutely fantastic. You obviously spent a lot of headphone time listening to the Beatles! Super happy thank you

@CyberBass: Oh yes, I did :D Happy you like it

Super-awesome guitar work Claude !

@YvesC: Thanks Yves!

Thanks, Yves. Yeah, a little bit improv I'm afraid, as usual for me. Haven't listened to it other than a couple times on phone, which is all high frequency, but a good way to check timing. I think too early to tell. For one thing, there are two BTs. I didn't realize that when I recorded. There's some resonance going on.

@Bob : Excellent Bob! I'm tight for time rn so I did a quick sync, dropped the other BT and published. Back soon!
