    If I get chance, could I have a go please? I'd like to add ridiculous lashings of reverb to it :) where does one download the files?

    So....heres my effort..Immusing Studio One V4



    Started with drums, Stripped all silence from Kick and snare, some in auto some manually, treated both with Shepps Omni and S1 Fat channel, pus mixverb on the snare.

    Toms, stripped all silence, plus manual editing, Omni channel and Fat channel again, panned Hi / Mid / Low

    OH LR panned, no FX.

    All drums sent to Bus, Omni Bus compression and slight reverb.

    Rhythm Gtrs, dusplicated track, panned LR with -15ms / +15ms delay / advance to add width, added S1 Fat channel for Comp. EQ etc.

    Lead Gtr - Kept central, Fat channel, some Beat delay, Abbey Rd Reverb and slight widening.

    Vocal - Duplicated track, original down the middle, duplicate hard right with advance 10ms low in the mix, tread with Waves RVox, Omni channel, Mixverb, Pro EQ.

    Main Bus - Post Limiter +1Db,  EQ to Hi Pass, DBX 160 compression ( light comp), Abbey Rd Vinyl grit.

    Hope you like it !

    I like what you did to my voice! :)
    We have to be so very careful, what we believe in...

    I've finally finished pointing and clicking in GarageBand and now have something I am reasonably happy to submit. However, I'm not sure how to create an mp3 file from my GB project and hope that someone here has that knowledge?

    Make sure you have the "cycle" on and you have dragged it to cover what you want to export:



    Goto "share" at the top of the screen and select "export to disk"



    in the next dialogue box select "mp3" and click "export cycle area" and export it to where ever you want to save it.




    Hope that helps

    mp3 file submitted. Given no prior experience of mixing, I used the standard options available in GarageBand, and adjusted panning and volume here and there, and doubled the rhythm guitar and vocal. The resulting mix does not materially change the open, riffy, nature of the original CCR recording.

    Just sent in my mix, really enjoyed playing with a live recording, Not sure if the drums sound right but here is what i have done.

    Guitar: Duplicated panned left and right and added a virtual amp to one of the stems
    Bass: Added some more punch
    Drums/Snare: Some slight reverb and compression
    2nd guitar panned to one side
    Vocals : Duplicated and added reverb and delay to one side

    Now that was fun, can we have the other recordings to play with?
