Very cool bass sounds! Ya can get some really good bass sounds using midi, but nothing beats the real thing! I was actually snapping my fingers along to this one without thinking of it's title or the lyrics. Something subconcious maybe? Did you put backwards messages in this one? :p
Man, this is really AWESOME, Matt! I was quite a Prong fan from back in the day. I have both the Beg To Differ and Prove You Wrong albums. I listened to Beg To Differ fairly obsessively back in the eary to mid 90s and still give it a whirl every once in a while. Prove You Wrong is really good too. I have scoured the internet looking for MIDIs for Prong songs, with hopes of covering them, but this is the only one I have been able to find. While not my favorite from them, it is a great tune and got them a lot of attention when it came out.
Anyway, you really sound a lot like Tommy Victor on those vocals! You would make a great stand-in for him if he ever left the band and they wanted to keep going. :o) As far as your recording, both your bass and guitars are very fat, punchy and gritty. I love the bass part by itself during the intro (Really fat!). This recording was performed and mixed really well (sounds great!). From one Prong fan to another, I easily give you 5 stars for this gem.

You guys are awesome! :thumb:
I completely agree nothing compares to a real bass. I'm usually just too lazy to do it myself:toothless: but the midi bass was so wrong I couldn't even use it and I really wanted to cover this.
KC, good to see another Prong fan! I wish I could find other midis too. Let me know if you come across any and I'll do the same. I'd love to do "This is only a Test" :rock: Thanks for the listen bro.
Mac,Dallas,MATT,Janelle,Bahamut and Per thanks for the listen and posts.:bowdown:

I really appreciate all the great responses. I've been trying to focus on production alot lately and am trying new mixing/EQing/layering techniques. Thanks for all the great feedback.
