Just me on my lonesome :p I had to borrow the studio bass (a huge Fender Squire with dodgy intonation) which was a pain because I've only ever played bass a few times and I didn't get a chance to practice anything (made the arpeggios extra difficult in the middle section!).
The drums are actually midi, programmed one beat at a time in Cubase. They sound like a real kit because each midi beat is routed through Battery which syncs them up to real snare/bass/tom samples from a live kit. The most difficult thing about the whole track was the drum programming, the guitars were fairly simple and were recorded in about two hours, the bass took about an hour because I had to make it up as I was recording it!
In all it took a day to record all the parts and get the mix to where it is now, probably would have taken a lot longer with a real drummer. Thanks for checking it out though, I really appreciate it!
