Hmmm... Yeah, probably. I was going to put these all in one directory with appropriate file names. So this won't be so much confusing as it will time consuming downloading them all. How about I do a quick mix with just adjusting volume levels so each part can be heard reasonably as I get each file? I can then provide the "production team" the individual raw files at the end...

Can't speak for other software, but you'll need to do a multi-track recording if using Cool Edit Pro. It's pretty easy to add one track and record on another. What software are you using?
Comfirmation on the bass right here, and billy i dont think i big solo would be appropriate for Greystreet or really any solo at all, we dont need to get to carried away with our first attempt, keep it simple..

Again, how can I confirm that I will am this?

I wouldn't think distortion would count as an effect in your case as you obviously want some distortion on leads, but again, keep it simple.

I totally agree about keeping it simple, especially with this many participants. Also, don't solidify your parts too much yet. Some of the improv people are definitely going to want to work off what others have done and try to compliment each other...
For whomevers mixing it I can send you a very nice effects package. Maxx bass, for everything low, Audiotrack for alot of the compression/limiting, really nice reverbs, and other stuff too! Its really good
I'm confirming my participation on the drums.. as long as we get to it before the 30th.. after that I can only get to my set on weekends (drumset doesn't follow me to my apartment ) .. and yah, I'd love to try and mix them down the road from now

Cool. Don't worry, I just took the "6string version" from Dmbtabs.com and strum the G and b string parts in the main riff rythm, and for the chorus, just some Chord following Arpeggieos (sp). I think that is simple enough.
YEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAA!
This is gonna be a blast!
Ok last night I didnt get much time to myself cause I wasn't home but im pretty certain ill get it done tonight and i'll pass it on to roast and we can get this going..
As for CEP 2.0, use F12 to toggle between "Edit Waveform View" and "Multitrack View" (also under the View menu). When in Multitrack view go to Insert-->Wave from file... and browse to the MP3 for the progress track once I send you a private message with the link (obviously, you'll need to download it). Then on Track 2 in CEP, select the red R button so it's highlighted. When you click the circular red Record button on the bottom left it will play Track 1 while recording to Track 2. You'll want a pair of headphones for this so you can hear Track 1 but it won't be recorded on Track 2, i.e. you don't want to do this through speakers. You can experiment with this by using the CD version, but when you record your real track, use the progress MP3. Lemme know if you have any more questions.
