Score question
« on: February 10, 2011, 05:59:28 PM »
well, i have a question  :biggrin:
did JP do reamping or something on score. I noticed that he is not playing some parts on Under a Glass Moon but you can hear them. Did he like play the whole thing again just to record or what?

There is probably a topic about this but im lazy so bare with me mods :)

I don't know for sure, but it's probably a pre-recorded back track. Since there's only one guitar player in the band, some parts can't be played, so they're either omitted or played on a backing track.

A camera man stepped on a cable, killing his rig for a chunk of the song. that little bit was overdubbed in the studio to keep it flowing. nothing major

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Definitely not this. Dream Theater don't overdub like that.

I have absolutely no recollection of that.  I've seen it mentioned before, but I seem to have blocked it out.

Argument, the presentation of reasonable views, never makes headway against conviction, and conviction takes no part in argument because it knows.

I've never heard the camera man bit, but I definitely know that the rig went down for a good chunk of the song.

This.  I don't know what the problem was, but the guitar stopped working for about 30 seconds or so, and MP really almost went into panic mode.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I'm surprised you guys didn't notice it, I immediately caught and told my buddy. I remember the look on jp's face like "shit" and he walked back to his rig.
