Hey Paulo. I just listened to this on my iPod. I didn't hear the click, but I do the think the drums are off like Jay mentioned. I'll PM Ken and see if he agrees. We might just have them misaligned or something.

I didn't relisten about the click but the kick drum is not aligned, that I know... The problem is that is out only in some spots.

What I hear is the bass is doing a standard country groove in the verses like so:
(highlighted are the beats being played)

1, and, 2, and, 3, and, 4, and,

If the kick locked in with that,.. it would be fine.  The chorus sounds fine.

Again just my opinion.  I don't know shit most of the time. ;)

HDA hit it dead on .

I just opened up the program to listen to what I played to and it's not even close to the bass that's on the finished track ( not that's it a bad take ,it just doesn't follow the kick ). There were also a few kicks that were not dead on also .

If you would like , post the latest bass sep and I can retrack tomorrow to it . I know were in the finished thread but you guys spent alot of time on this and I would hate to see you settle for something your not 100% happy with .

Let me know

Good song and a good mix , but now Paulo has the bass more audible than the earlier mixes he asked me to listen to you can really tell it's not locked to the drums.  You could spend a night splicing the bass to line up with the kick  , I've done it quite a few times...or retrack the bass.

We never finish a mix... we simply abandon them.

Yeah, that would be great Ken. I do think we should retrack it. I hate it's something that we didn't realize until now, but I think it's a decent song and would be worth it to get it right. Thanks guys :)

Perhaps I'm just out of the pocket, I know that Ken's in sync. (in Time)

As I get older, it seems that I have more trouble staying in the groove. That sucks for me, it was never a question before.  :-\

Well, you get what you pay for....LOL

Neither of you are wrong with what you played,.. just completely different grooves.  Bass is doing a country groove in the verses and drums are doing a push kick groove.

Once Ken re-tracks to the bass groove,... it will be just a matter of shifting a few things to tighten it right up.

Looking forward to hearing this completed,..again. ;) :)

Attached is an updated mix for this one with Preston's new bass. It's tight with the kick now. Thanks again guys. Had not listened to this in a while. You guys played great!

I've been listening to (and using) the wrong version of this for years.  Never noticed the update until today.  The "new" version rocks! 8)
