Seeing as Master Of Puppets is not just a track but also the name of arguably the best metal album of all time, and one of my personal favourites, I'll allow covers of any song from the album.
And in a super-rule twist if anyone covers the entire album then it's a bonus 50 points!

Sorry for using words like "the thing" but I don't know what they are called. The things that you use for velocity, pan, sustain, pitch bend etc

It works for my mostly chord based rhythm playing, but I suppose that explains why my timing is all over the place and polish is a bit rough at the edges. It's interesting the different approaches that people take though, I'm aware mine is a bit weird but very much relates to my "do things just in time" approach, also doing things when the mood strikes and don't take long about doing it so you don't run out of time

I've been blending multiple tracks (long notes and trem) with volume/velocity automation in DAW rather than real time recording to try and get decent swells. I'm a beginner at orchestral scoring but it seems that percussion and brass really help with the dramatic swells. I might try adding some other string plugins as well. I'll happily accept all constructive criticism when my track is in the list
My biggest issue with the strings is that the faster notes sound really synthetic, which is a nuisance given they're doing the guitar solo! Still, can't argue too much given it's a free plugin
For this, the song was the first that came to mind as something silly to mess with. I tried a few things but then stumbled upon the funky clavinet sound whilst browsing Analog Lab and that riff pretty much wrote itself. Spent a while selecting the drum parts, then some simple organ and rhythm guitar chords.
Vocals were one take and purposefully buried/effects heavy to try and minimise the impact of such pearls as "the tropical scent of you lifts me from above". Stuck in a little Mambo No 5 at the end for fun, along with the little bits of Macarena. Finally, a couple of run throughs of the solo (homemade fuzz into software auto wah) and a generic funk bassline on my fretless.
Still not Metallica, but just as fun
Are we doing teaser pics now?
