Due
to the restrictions of copyright law, we were planning of recording a
cover of a song. However, due to the complexity of it, we instead
decided to look for something free to use. The song we intended to cover
just happened to also be free to copy, distribute, transmit and adapt
under creative commons, so seemed ideal.
Both the guitar and bass lines of
‘Angels’ by the XX would have been recorded through a Yamaha THR10
amplifier/interface into Cubase 6LE. The dreamy feel would have been
created either through use of an in-program plugin or a Boss Me-20B
effects pedal and the drums would have been recorded in the step editor,
also with appropriate effects added.
As we are going to be using it for non commercial uses, we are free to
use it under the conditions that we reference the artist, as well as
providing a link to the creative commons page with the finished upload
on Vimeo
Audio from a wedding video on Youtube was also added, as it relates the
the content of our production and helps create
meaning.
Add information about extracting audio through Realplayer:
Adam then recorded the soundtrack as previously planned. However,it wasn't
possible to use the effects pedal he intended to use, as the interface
only accepts a mono signal. For this reason, he instead recorded a clean
signal for the bass parts and used a plugin just for the guitar parts,
with the addition of a 'hall' effect on the actual amplifier.
