The Happy Fits - Heart of a Dancer - Jousis Cover (Behind the Scenes)

I made this for this video:    • Path of Exile - The Forbidden Build 9 - Wa...   You can also find it on my Soundcloud:   / heart-of-a-dancer   I have a public Discord server:   / discord   The Happy Fits saw my cover of Dirty Imbecile, and liked it, so I asked if I could cover Heart of a Dancer too, and they said yes. So, I wanted to do my best. Here we are, a year later. There's always something I could improve, so I had to release it with things I'm not happy with, or it would never be released. FAQ: What software is that? The DAW is Reaper. It has a ridiculously-generous free trial length, and is only $60 full price. Used by many industry professionals. Would highly recommend it. Most of the plugins I used were eclectically-collected, and not necessarily the best tool for the job. For example, instead of trying to use my guitar chain exactly, I recommend you try to make it sound as good as you can yourself. You might do better than I did. Superior Drummer 3 is what I used for the drums, and it's pretty good. Expensive, but less so than hiring a drummer. This song in particular needs a real drummer. There are too many specific techniques in it to properly emulate with software drums. The timing is also fairly difficult in some parts. What guitar do you have? I bought the cheapest ($180) Squier HSS Stratocaster I could find, plugged it into the cheapest XLR interface I could find that also worked with my SM7B (audien evo 4, $110), and used Amplitube 5, with some free cabinets. This song exposes one of its weaknesses: I'm pretty sure the tone dials don't do anything. I wanted to adjust the tone for the quiet part, but it didn't change at all.
