How I Did It


by Admiral Bob
Samples are used in:
Tools I Used
Recorded onto a Fostex Mr-8 with an SM58 on the neck joint of the guitar and mandolin, and an SM-57 on the sound hole. The strings were recorded into Reaper and then VSTied using the M-Audio general MIDI module using both a violin and string pad.
Samples I Used
No samples.
Original Samples
Two guitar parts, a mandolin part (all stereo), and a string part to accompany the guitar break.
Process
Recorded it mostly on hardware, brought it to the DAW and added strings.
Other Notes
There's a shortage of Xmas stuff here.
