New song - The Ballad of the Dangerous Liaison

Hope you like it, took me bloody long enough to record! It's because I can't play the drums you see.

Awesome, pretty long song with a lot of changes in it. The drums sound really good, how did you do them?

Also, really like the singing.

Thanks! I'm using Sonar producers edition with the EZ drummer add-on. I'm useless at using the samples though so have to go through writing it from scratch, one mouse click for every drum/cymbal hit. Luckily once you've written a verse and a chorus you can just copy and paste, but getting it right the first time is the hard part.

Is it expensive? I haven't found a good way to make drums yet so I just use stock MIDI ones.

Belmit · 26-05-2007, 23:42

Unfortunately yes. Sonar is almost £400, and the add-on is about £100. I borrowed them from someone at work who's really into his music though, otherwise I'd be struggling with an old crappy drum machine!

Well I guess the general consensus for that one was pretty much apathy! Try this one, literally finished half an hour ago:

Change (For the Better)
