Mundhinam Parthene Instrumental

This is the latest instrumental i have done. It has taken me more than 3 months to finish doing this in my newly upgraded home recording " Noize Factory". And the good news is that i am out of hibernation and i am going to do a lot more soon!!

No , This is not done on a karaoke!!!. All the tracks have been recreated in my studio including the strumming guitar which comes from a software called BigfishAudio Rhythm Guitar and FX. This is the same software used by Harris to compose the song, And yeah this is the same strumming pattern George Micheal would have used in his song called "Faith". So the sample itself is called the Faithy Strum.

This is the first instrumental i have tried to do some active automation A.K.A Mixing, with an equipment called B-Control ( Behringer BCF2000) in my studio.

I have taken a lot of pains make it sound as close to the origional as possible.

Kindly hear it and post your comments

Hi Ashwin,

Great job! You have mimic-ed the original very well. The sax sound in the interlude was too good - very close to the original. What did you use for this? The playing could have been better though. The rhythm guitar sounds exactly like the original. I am surprised that music directors use Guitar strumming loops when they have easy access to so many musicians. Was this strumming pattern a pre-built pattern provided or was the pattern constructed by you?

Expecting more from you. :)

ramesh:

the sax in interlude wax from my Yamaha PSR2000 which was tweaked to get a more vibrato effect and more tenor.

The strumming pattern was a prebuilt one in the software called " bigfish audio rhythm guitar and fx" it came at 80bpm and in C,F,G (MAJOR CHORDS) AND Cm,Fm,Gm each. i sped it up in soundforge and transposed each sample to the chords i want as the song was in B major scale with chords in A, Bm F#,C#m g#m

Hi:
While I was searching for karaoke, i stumbled upon your blog and I heard your creations and was amazed at the effort and time you have devoted to express your wonderful talent. Keep up your good work. On a selfish note I am looking forward to more solo tracks which then I could steal to create my karaoke. When you have time, please visit my blog at http://blogs.usindians.com

Once again, nice work.

Shiva
