Nice job Mike.
One of the most exciting Beatles tracks for me, and done and dusted in one day from start to finish.
Most of what George played was double tracked and when you listen to early takes you understand why.
He dropped loads of danglers and the double tracking hid it.
I ramble.........
Anyway, I enjoyed it, lot of work gone in.

Excellent!

I don't think many Beatles songs work well in the Shadows style, but this one definitely does.

Thanks for listening ecca, the opening stereo parts are certainly shifted a few ms from l/r to give that distinctive sound. DT'ing was the norm for most beatle tracks particularly the vocals.

Thanks Ian, it took little while, about 2 weeks with a bit of a break the last few days for a drop or two. The drums as all my sequenced parts are, input as a note/hit individually into midi tracks in Cubase 5, the drums are a vsti BFD2.see this link http://www.fxpansion.com/index.php?page=53

UF,glad you liked it, although it was really meant to try and get somewhere nearer the beatles than the shads.


Cheers,

Mike
