I told you it was fine but people wanted the drums brighter, I EQ’d them brighter and I’m not surprised you hate it. The only way to EQ drums with full control is miking separate elements, I couldn’t do that. Boosting the top 10k also boosted a bunch of harmonics and the room reverb. Be careful what you wish for
I’m sorry if I’m not able to get access to a zillion different microphones to mic up the drums!
If you want to do another Beatles song why not do Helter Skelter or similar, I wanna hear some crazy singing
Surely Everybody’s Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey might be slightly easier and more practical?
OK, enough fiddling is enough, this is the final mix: https://drive.google.com/open?…..6zMBr4zJp3 To do anything more is just going around in circles and I want 7gig of hard disk space back
Wow, go us. 
to everyone who did stuff, to @ewe2 for mixing it, it sounds utterly fab! I can’t believe how professional it sounds, kudos to all!

I liked what you did with the drums, just pointing out what that leaves you with at a mixing stage. I enjoyed the challenge TBH, by the end there I had half a dozen bounced tracks together with various different mixdowns, it was crazy! Billions of 
for everyone!
Monkey is a good track to do, particularly for our budding guitar heros and it means I don’t have to sing (much, I can do a bunch of crazy cmon’s). It will of course require tambourines AND cowbells!

I’d be very excited to do a cover of Monkey. It could be very fun, is anyone else in?

Offline @The Hole Got Fixed if you do drums, try and record them really dry like the original, its a flat almost boxy sound, the snare’s very flat IIRC.

YAAAAYYYYYYYYUYYYYYYY 
I did an actual one of these when I saw this (except with one-fourth as many persons)
I was in a bathroom with profuse mirrors and it looked really cool, especially with my tailcoat, but MOST IMPORTANTLY I was elated that it was finished!
And it sounds FABULOUS! Kudos to everyone who contributed, especially @ewe2 who had to muddle all our stuff together.

Edit: I meant ‘yelling’, not ‘talking’. Typos

- guide guitar and guide vox
- bass
Typically Lennon, the rhythm will fool ya if you let it! I didn’t do all the cmons so there was some clear space to hear that section for players, but when we get to it, there will be lots

Would someone, perhaps you, ewe2, want to make a post summarizing the completed song (listing who sang, played, mixed, etc.) and a mod can pin the post at the beginning of the thread so it is easy to find? Or, Starr Shine? could edit her post at the beginning of the thread to include the information and the link to the song.

I can’t believe I forgot about those!
But most of all I can’t believe I forgot to put who mixed it…
Whoever did do that did one hell of a job!

Offline No kazoo because I have the memory of a flea. There was a ukulele guide but that’s all it was meant to be. I actually re-recorded the bass after I got the drum track so I would match the swing of it. I bounced-down quite a few things to sit in the mix right, it’s all spread over a dozen remake.

Holy toots Batman! 
I literally forgot it was there. Had to hunt through half a dozen projects until I found the original, it all got lumped into a bounced-down mix. Honestly forgot I did it and couldn’t hear it until you said where it was.
Anyway, guitarists: looking forward to a nice fat smoking George guitar wobble and solo-lette from someone on Everybody’s Got Something To Hide Except For Me And My Monkey. The guide guitar shouldn’t quite be doing what it’s doing in the verses: in the first verse it still does the rising triads but in the remaining verses it just plays the chords as accents (E 2 3 Esus4 E) and then repeats the rising triads in the ‘come on is such a joy’ sections, I just didn’t listen hard enough when I did the guides and chicken-scratched my way through it.
