any musicians on this site? - Page 3

I have an old version of Sonar on my computer and I can get my hands on Cubase. We could pretty much do it with anything if we do it in straight .wav files. Someone would have to be in charge of accumulating and mixing the tracks into a finished product.

Oh...and there couldn't be any music reading involved if I was going to have any part in it.

The Cellar Rats

One key person here considers the doors a lounge act..

I play folk guitar and piano/keyboards poorly (but well enough to suit my meager purposes). I'm getting fairly good at playing jazz bass - my main hobby these days.

My current band briefly went by the name "Cellar Door", because of the quote from "Donnie Darko"...

Flint--- Just a drummer. Ha. Above, I tried to briefly list a forum band, but didn't have a drummer. Glad to hear that you have a det gargage to work with.

Flint · 04-30-2006, 10:59 PM

do drummers count? usually, only to "8"

smoothmoniker · 05-01-2006, 01:29 AM

oh wait, are we listing gear?

Hang on, lemme get another pen, this one's out of ink.

Ibby · 05-01-2006, 01:50 AM

Guitar (Ibanez RG550, I think? ...It's the S/S/HB one.)

Bass (Shitty Silvertone started bass, Traben Array 4-string)

trying to learn keyboards too, got me one of those crappy ones with the light-up keys

Rock Steady · 05-01-2006, 01:54 AM

Gear????

Mrs RS has a 1910 Steinway C Grand Piano. In Classical, this is as good as it gets. Thank goodness she's not a string player.
