Remain Indoors - Periphery instrumental cover made using Reaper
Hi all
I just made a cover of Periphery's song called Remain Indoors from their latest album Periphery III: Select Difficulty.
Now I know that I can just buy their producer pack and get the stem tracks for drums, bass, synth, etc, so I can just play the guitar parts. But I want to cover all the instrumental parts by myself.
This is not a 100% accurate cover, this is my ear interpretation of what they play on the song, and some of the parts were even improvised because I can't figure out what they played.
Here it is:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaqGki3b66w
Guitar and bass went straight to Positive Grid's Bias Amp Desktop with some EQ, compressor, delay, and other tweaks. Drum is MT Power Drum Kit II. Synth is Yamaha PSR S710 and TAL Noise Maker.
Recorded in Reaper, and I tried to use ReaPlugs(ReaEQ, ReaComp, soft_clipper, stereo_delay) as much as possible without resorting to too much other plugins to work on this track.
I know my mix is not perfect and is sounding quite different than what the original song sounds like. So, if you have suggestions on that, please let me know and I'll be very happy to learn and improve.
All comments, suggestions, constructive feedback are welcomed! Enjoy

Sounds great man! Even if it's not note for note, you nailed it.

Yup, sounds very impressive.
(I didn't know they make JEMs in HSS flavor)

ScottyD, Zeekat, Rusty Falcon, thank you for the kind words! Means a lot to me I'm really trying to improve both my playing skill as well as my mixing skill too.
Zeekat, it's not a stock model. This is actually an old Korean Ibanez JEM-JRWN from 2003 or 2004. It's originally HSH just like every other JEM, but sometime in 2011 I replaced the pickguard and pickups(INF pickups). Might as well convert the whole thing to HSS to suit my need at the time.

Ah, weird I didn't think about that, did similiar thing to my RG-ish guitar (replacing HSH with HH in new pickguard). Normally I find pickguards annoying, but having ability to swap pickup configs at will is indeed a plus.

I agree with you, the ability to quickly swap pickups by just changing the pickguard and using solderless terminal connector has allowed me to dramatically change the guitar tones in a relatively effortless way
When you changed your RG from HSH to HH, do you also change your pickup selector switch?

Changed 5-way to 3-way, I'm past experimenting with coil splitting, plain humbuckers are the best

I see, agree with you Zeekat! I have a 7 string that's just HH with no fancy wiring, love the sound too!
The HSS JEM was needed for my previous live gigs, but now that I have two HSS strats guitar, the JEM got little use in that matter. However, I'm too lazy to go back to HSH, so might as well keep it HSS and sacrifice the guitar for the AGCFAD tuning for this cover song
