    Hello all, I forgot to ask if you were all done tweaking things from your end (before Mark Complete). I just unlocked it in case. Let me know BROZ CyberBass Bdajaysus

    I saved a mix with the tiny timing adjustment to BROZ vocals. See what you think?

    The only other tracks to be recorded I could think of is a 2nd back-vocal at the end ("keep it to yourself it's my life") plus some hand clapping as per the Billy Joel recording. @broz le me know if interested.

    @BROZ: I meant to suggest that you could add a 2nd vocal in the outro. Let me what you think.

    @Eric : have someone do the actual backup vocals in the song. I can do them if no one else does.

    Hi. A few things..I submitted two vocal tracks. Use them if you like. The second track I doubled the chorus which I think sounds pretty good. If you want to feel out who may want to work on a track use the messaging feature instead of randomly inviting people. Use the original full song as the backing track. It makes it easier to record without dealing with other muscians latency. I can't wait to hear this published. Fantastic job everyone else!

    Thanks again my friend. I'll definitely follow your advice on invites. Last thing I want to do is offend anyone. Let me know if you make more tweaks that you want published.

    You're the 2nd telling me about keeping original songs as BT so it's duly noted!

    @Eric : I adjusted for latency so whatever you want to do with the tracks at this point is your business.

    Hi @pcderic sent in a drum track let me know if it works for you sounding solid guys. Personally Eric I prefer to record to original backing track with everything intact , I find it easier to pick out snare and kick and fills in the mix , once I've recorded the playing field is all yours.

    Sure works for me. Great job once again! Oh. I wouldn't have expected that you would prefer the original song as BT. Next time, don't hesitate to ask me to put the original . But now, there's definitively no difference in the result! ;-)
