Gilbertk Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I started a new Youtube channel called "Great Rhythm Sections" where I'll post classic songs with the drums and bass isolated. Here's one of the first few I posted, which is The Trees. Enjoy! I won't usually, but I included the keys for this song because Geddy plays them and well, he is half of the rhythm section soooo... yeah. Also it gives a little context for Neil's parts. Enjoy! Oh and if you have any requests for more isolations don't hesitate to ask! I'm willing to post any part isolated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USB Connector Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Nice. I'm curious, do you have access to the masters or is this a very painstaking process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a process I would love to learn it, but through scouring the internet, I found many MANY original multitracks from lots of artists.

Tommy Sawyer Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Sounds great! I love the faint vocals so it's easy to tell where you are in the song. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenken Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Something I notice often in these isolation vids, is Geddy often sounds like he's a hair behind the beat with his notes. It's weird. Anyone notice that? Im guessing he played like this on purpose, and you dont really notice it listening to the full song, but it's apparent when you strip everything else out. He sounds slightly slow to me, timing slightly off or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
third hand grace Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Ive said it sooo many times before.... If Rush would release cds of them isolated I'd buy every single one, thats guitar/bass/drums/keys/ effects. This would make some Big Money for them!

Yeah ive heard a lot of these isolation tracks, and in many of them Geddy is playing a little behind the beat. Listen to this one. He's definitely not hitting those notes right on the beat, he's slow, but you dont notice it so much when all the music is there. It's really weird. I wonder if he was playing like this on purpose in the studio recordings, or if he just isnt a human metronome like Neil is. But I dont get it because anyone that plays bass will tell you it's not hard to play right on the beat, and like you said, he didnt always play slow live. It's a mystery to me.

stdio Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 These tracks are rips of the audio files from the Rock Band and Guitar Hero video games. They are not THE actual tracks from a master tape. The masters were provided to the game makers. There are tons of these on the net. All of MP is available. Check the Making Modern Music section and do a search. Check 'em out .... they are awesome!!! Lots of fun to jam to if you are merely a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastille Dave Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 to me, the Alex's guitar seems to get farther and farther back in the mix from AFTK on up to say the end of the 80's. don't get me wrong, I love the bass and drums but I can adjust the sound to hear those more, I dont necessarily have controls to hear the guitar louder. I would love to hear anything guitar only from basically '75 up through the 80's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
