Well, I don't mean remixing drinks, though, hey - I'd be down with that, too!
I've been working from time to time remixing the song that was based on an HXDA demo. The idea of the amp demo was that there would be no overdrives used, and nothing would change on the amp settings from track to track. All gain changes would come from the guitar's volume control, and that's the way it went down.
I started this on my McCarty, but during production traded it in on a 594, so I did the solo with the 594 and a wah (or more accurately, the wah on my Eventide H9 with an expression pedal), and a bit of delay.
My bandmate (lyricist/singer on this track) had some suggestions about guitar and vocal levels, and they were good ones. I felt I needed to play around with panning, imaging, etc., and finished this up today.
Several of you have heard it, but this version (mix No. 17!) sounds way nicer.
In any event, a guitar amp demo turned into a song, called Waves of Blue. Usually I'll make excuses for the playing, etc., but this time I think it's pretty good. I can even tolerate my bass and organ playing.
