Fell in love with a girl | white stripes cover
After doing my play along to Ceremony by New Order, in which I had to learn all the parts including the crazy consistent hi hat motion, I decided to fall back to a song that is just as good but a bit more simple in nature, as well as a song I already knew.
The one difference to this project is that I found a voice only version of the song so I was able to play the parts and mix in the voice of Jack White.
How it was recorded:
Like other play alongs, I set the guide track and played the drums to that. I then did the same with the guitar part. The only difference, as mentioned above, once that was done, I was able to remove the guide track all together and just turn on the voice track.
Drums
Drums, as always, were recorded using my alesis strike pro module going directly into Logic via my Focusrite 18i20.
Like the ceremony cover I used the same pre-configured Gretsch kit that came from Drumtec.
Guitar
I played the guitar through my spark amp. That seems to be the goto now for all the guitar covers I do. Its just so easy to find a tone from the tone cloud and not have to deal with tinkering with pedals. For this song, I was able to find a Jack White tone that sounded right on.
Bass
There is no bass for the white stripes!
