Songwriters Pack demos

[Scott]

This is my first post in a long time. I just got the Songwiters Pack recently and it has made my songwriting “scratch pad” so much easier. There are definitely some usable loops in the pack, but for my use they give me a way to make an ambient metronome in order to record my guitar riffs/ideas in really short amount of time. No programming or loop construction is done. I just drag and drop and jam out. Then I can build my drums/loops as I go, while already having a reference demo track. I love it!

I did these tracks last night in the matter of minutes, it seemed like. My playing is a little sloppy, but I get my point across…LOL.

Very nice! I really dig your guitar tone.
And your tunes sound really good as well.
Glad to hear that the SongWriters Pack is working for you.
I love it, too. Matter of fact … I used it on my latest tutorial video
(sorry for the plug)
ToonTrack really did a nice job on that pack.
Thanks a lot for sharing … don’t be such a stranger!

Thanks for checking them out! For $19, the Songwriters pack is a steal. I will still program my drums later using other EZXs.

I use a Randall RM4 as my guitar preamp. I have 2 XTC modules that I have tweaked/modified for the Red and Blue channels of a real Bogner Ecstasy. I also use my modified TS9 as a front end boost. I’m pretty happy with my tone right now.

Thanks again! As I write and complete more tunes, I’ll be posting everywhere. I’m really hoping to finish an album’s worth of material.

Thanks for checking in. What’s next? Hopefully a final arrangement, including a full drum track, and then track guitars, bass and vocals.
