Just fooling around with EZ drummer and recorded this somewhat cheesy song with shuffle beat.

Thanks a lot! Yeah it’s just me (I just hate hearing my own voice…). 😉 I do play in other bands too but sometimes I record my own songs.
I’m using Pro Tools Express (that I got with my Avid Fast Track Solo soundcard), EZdrummer2 and some EZmix effects. I’m planning on upgrading in the future but for what it is I’m quite pleased with how it sounds.

Replaced the midi bass with a real bass and remastered the track.

Yeah I like the real bass more than the midi bass. Mix is a little punchier as well. Any conciliation I hate my voice too…
