Have you ever done an in depth video showing your mixing and post process? Would love to see a full walkthrough going from your raw performance to the finished cover.
i was expecting he would do something like you mention here but haha he didnt...
Matt pls read the comments. nobody is gonna steal your style. we just love to play guitar wt the original track. so plss teach us
@@dpedrosoliano You just have to set the recorded guitars just a bit louder than the track and then do an EQ band cutting about -8 dB and then move it around while listening until you find the spot that makes it sit better in the mix. Then you just do small tweaks until it sound the way you want. Obviously it helps if the guitar tone is similar to the original track. Also sometimes it might be better if you don't double track your guitar, it really depends on the kind of song/genre.
thank u so much! @@AnimeTabs
Your covers are killer bro. They deffo live and breathe unlike others I’ve seen. The time and effort put into post mixing etc pays off. Btw I Saw what a nightmare you were having on
Insta with this vid haha thanks for sticking with It and getting it out to us! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
A lot of cover artists could get help from this. Like you said, so many others you can't hear them playing or all you hear is them playing.
Hey Matt you should cover Orion I think with you guitar tone and the second part with the harmonies you would sound amazing :)
How do you add the original song in the daw? Thats my only problem I can't figure out
Great video, and congrats for getting it out! I hate when shit malfunctions!! And if people can't hear the obvious difference between the overdubbed guitars and the original track, that's on them. I swear everyone's an expert these days lmao 🤘💀🤘
is there a way to use the original song without having the original guitar solo poking out from under nearth what im playing?
Do you EQ the mids or anything in the original track? To help the recorded guitar sit in the mix better?
1:22 had me spitting out my drink 😂😂
I'd buy this dude a pint if I met him not only is he fellow brit but he's also an ace guitarist who has great taste with Blackstar backline.
Keep doing what you do man 🤘
Love your videos man everytime i watch you it makes me pick up my guitar and play when i havent had the inspiration to, thank you matt \m/,
Do it mann! I’m struggling myself lately but if I can pick it up you do it too! 👊🏻👊🏻
How do you upload a bands song into your daw?
Anyone who says they can’t hear your guitar hasn’t practiced their guitar enough 😂
I useably use custom backing tracks but you are right I am covering enter sandman now and im using the song I think it is better im not done yet but it feels better , and its cheaper lol thanks bro
You know if there's any difference with copyright or RUclips police?
Great stuff man!
That guitar is the meanest baddest guitar I’ve seen. Mines is in the corner shaking 🤘
so wats the point for holding a guitar
Becsuse it’s fucking sexy!
this was not useful at all
Yes it was not
Why?
THANK YOU! Im seeing people in comments going "nice video man" wtf! The title, the chapter names, his very 1st sentence, eveything is misleading about this video. All he said was "oh, give'it a go" and that's it. No tips, no eq strategies, nothing useful.
Because he said NOTHING, the title, the chapter names and his very 1st sentence lead you to think tht he's gonna show you HOW TO MIX A KILLER GUITAR COVER USING THE ORIGINAL TRACK to then tell you "give'it a go 🤡".
ive been trying to record again recently and have been trying to get better quality recordings, so thank you for this. also, first.
how do you even download the song
Hey Matt, I have just started my own channel and want to upload higher quality videos, using Mp3 backing tracks, either original or backing track purchased. I just don't understand where copyright comes in to it. I see loads of other players do this, so I guess it's fine?
I wanna know about this too
@The_Majestic _ I've since looked into this and every cover is copyrighted, but alot of artists are simply very lenient. So you're technically always in a situation where an artist can claim against you. So its simply luck of the draw! You can get licenses to cover you though if you want, I've not looked into this too much but I don't think this means an artist can't claim against you or try and take money from any money you make. So just do what you want basically! Some if not most artists probably appreciate the extra exposure! And it's not like you're making a fortune off their music. They'd probably be more interested in you if you were! ...but we have tribute cover bands, so again it's all bit of a haze! 😅
2 questions!! So it works the same as bass? And that means you have to play it exactly as the original track? I like to change up fills or solos.
Matt the rizz master
Man I wish I saw this alot earlier. I dig this video and method
Hey mate, great video. Just wondering about lead sounds and solos. I struggle to get a good sound. But i only record down the middle. Should i record my solos one each for left , right and centre?
How do you get the song into logic?????
I hope this is a good video
Managed to talk about the topic but not actually say anything substantial.
Can you make a video on your mastering process
To be honest mate there not much process other than more lows or more highs or more miss it less ha ha
Does anyone know how to load songs into the daw?? HELP
Drag and drop mate
@@mattriffmaster Ik that mate, but do you download the songs from youtube into mp3 and then drop them into the daw? or do you have to do something else
@@armandooropeza5856wish I could get an answer for this too
Do you make the tempo match the track and is that hard for you cause it screws me up
How do you add the video?
i have done this plenty of times, but youtube or FB keeps flagging me for copyright shit...
Yeah that happened unless you create a full band cover
@@mattriffmaster well i even tried doing tutorials for slipknot songs and still flagged for a song thats everywhere on youtube, seems pointless so i gave up. I just link my vids to gdrive and people decied to DL or not.
Yeah I’ve had that if I’ve played a riff too long it can flag it which is pathetic
Fantastic video - thank you for posting. You know your stuff...
Happy to help
do you get get copy righted using the original song ?
Yes mate
@@mattriffmaster But dont they take your video down? Or kill the original track sound? Im trying to do a bunch of covers but i get copyrighted even tho i write that i dont own the song, i do 1 track left and 1 right, do you put your original track center or the daw splits it into 2 mono tracks and you panned them left and right also? Thank you so much if you respond
Show how to mix it
Tough to say because it’s different everytime depending on the track just gotta use us ears mate and make it fit
@@mattriffmaster yes I have never mixed nothin
We all start somewhere dude I was the same but after I recorded my guitars I pulled up the EQ and started moving things around until it sounded good that’s all I did
where do you get your tracks from to use as a backing track in your daw
I use the original track but mix it so my guitars are above the tracks guitars
@@mattriffmaster How do you get the track into your daw? I've tried it with an itunes song but it wouldnt work
Jist drag and drop mate
You can’t just drag and drop .. Tried it using ITunes and with Windows Media Player…
I’ve seen others say the same.. I’ve tried it over and over .. Doesn’t work for me ..🤷🏻♂️
@1:00 *checks own guitar videos...* yyyyep. Well this is why Im here aint it
Grrrr
So how do u bring the song to daw ?!
Create a track in the DAW then drag and drop
@@mattriffmasterdrag and drop what?
5 minutes of explaining that you need to mix it to make it sound good (duh) and then nothing more in depth than that
Where do you get the original song? I’m trying to get my song from iTunes to reaper and it won’t work
I purchase it or download it then just drag it into my software
@@mattriffmaster so how can you download it for free?
Are you sponsored by Blackstar?
Yes mate
Can you tell xD
So really this is a defense video and nowhere do you actually show us the mixing process.
V.... agina
@@mattriffmaster ...
Man this isnt a how to video at all but more of a suggestion video
This is how to videos at all …. More of a suggestion? …. Wanna re- word that bright spark?
Can't stand that accent.
😂 and I’m sure you sound TERRIBLE aswell
@@mattriffmaster it is not about how I or how you sound. Just that heavy british accent is so unbearable. Why you britisih people just don't speak like why it should be? Just speak like an American, without any terrible accent.
@@mattriffmaster I am not an American and I think (I believe all the europe thinks like me) American accent is just so basic and enough, when I try to even listen something from a British it is being just so unstandable.
Well I’m British And fucking proud
@@mattriffmaster you can be proud of being British but I advise you not to be proud of your accent cuz it sounds like a panda trying to get something out of its mouth
