Keeping track of "source material"...

2009-07-14 by ss

I'm finding that especially with Melodyne Studio now that keeping  
track of "source material"
is becoming increasingly difficult!

After something goes into Melodyne and I have multiple arrangements it  
is so easy to lose track
of the original sound material that was the source of some of the end  
product that I'm having
to design custom sheets to track the work through its phases.

Anybody else finding this to be the case with your work?

I started with regular cue sheets (Excel) and redesigned them.

I keep thinking of that lawsuit where that musician sued the "Beastie  
Boys" and won
over "performance" in the three note sample rather than the sampled  
notes themselves!

I never "rip", but it makes one wonder about material and where it  
goes and where
it comes from these days!  :-)  A friend of mine uses a Ringo Star  
Beatles drum-hit
over and over again in his work.  He loves that particular hit!
