| ABBA gimme gimme gimme - the intro in cubase. Please read the complete story: The story about... I tried to do that song already in 1999 but my problems were the bad synthesizer and the cheap tools I had. So I only finished like some tracks and left intro work undone. I just didn't like it, sounded cheap... Today I found my old midi file on my old data cd-r's and I thought well now you could try it... I had to play some stuff again on the keyboard of the piano and some tracks I used from the old file.Used Steinberg tools: Cubase SX Hypersonc 2 groove agent 2 Played in with Yamaha E-Piano PDP-100 and my "ears" I can't read notes. And I don't want to read them... *laugh I am making music since i was a child. I "play by hearing". I first started with keyboard later e-piano and guitar. All these three things work quite well. I hear a song and after a short while I am able to play it. |

| First one thing: It is almost impossible to make that song "real sounding like the original" with virtual instruments. The guitar intros can't be better made without real guitars! There they are the limits of midi music... Without "my hands", it's just too much work to cut all these videos together as before. And this time it would even take longer cause it was more work! So... here is how far I've got... again made by "hearing the original and then doing" The song tempo was guessed by me. I set up here 100bpm. today I cheched out the original and came out with 102.200btm. hehe... ;o) Used Steinberg tools: Cubase SX Hypersonc 2 groove agent 2 Virtual guitarist e Played in with Yamaha E-Piano PDP-100 and my "ears" instruments: Hypersonic2: Picked Bass E-Guitar/Power Chords overdriven E-Lead Guitar overdriven E-Guitar Strat Jimmy Riff Double E-Guitar Strat/Mutes + Pops Velo clean Breathy Hybrid Ahh Male Ahh Choir XXL Syn.
