Good Riddance

Minutes ‘ Seconds (Italic 11pt Arial)

For my final assignment, I decided to do Green Day – Good Riddance. I decided to do this for my final because I am very familiar with the song, having been the first song I ever learned on guitar.
I recorded electric guitar via Pro Tools in Studio 1. I also recorded Bass Guitar via the Avalon. I used a click track whilst recorded to save time shifting regions.
I recorded the picking start of the song first, then simple chords. After recording, I edited using Pro Tools in the Mac lab. I cut out certain parts of the recording and arranged them so sound like the actual song. I used a few plug ins on the guitars, especially on the bass to bring it up in volume.
Volume automation was used on the bass guitar, and panning was used on the electric guitar.
I routed Reason to Pro Tools and used a MIDI track for the drum track. Simple drums were played on the Novation and the mix was complete.
