I saw the title and thought of Megadeth, and then I thought of Paramore. And so I hope to make something that sounds like neither one.
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D

Thinking maybe I'll hire a pro back-up band or steal some canned music, oh, and maybe hire an engineer and borrow/buy/steal some high end eq. This creating a new song for each fight s**t ain't working...
...wondering if the props dept could loan me a REAL machine gun...

Today I bought a Fast Track Pro, and I'm bringing my Nord and some mics back with me to tech school. I may try to put something together just to get the hang of recording again. Name suggestions for the newly-militarized Sober?

I hope you sent a royalty cheque to the writers of Blackadder.

We received a telegram from Mr Chaplin himself at Sennet Studios: Twice nightly filming of my films in trenches: excellent idea stop. But must insist that E. Blackadder be projectionist stop. P.S. Don't let him ever... stop.

Mine's at that stage where
(a) There's lots of tiny tweaks that could improve it, but
(b) I'm a little bit sick of hearing it, so
(c) If there's nothing I absolutely hate on a final listen, it's in.
Cubase rocks!
I'm saying the same about Reaper. After years of messing about with offline timestretchers, pitchshifters, deessers, companders etc, I find Reaper can do it all, do it well, and do it in realtime.
