I am gonna try and do All Time Low – Umbrella and Metallica – Die Die My Darling for the cover pack, and Devin Townsend – Bad Devil for the favorite artists pack. If I get any more time after that I might try doing another Buckethead song for the previously released artists pack
You really have to be in the multitrack celebration pack, come on.

Anyone to do a Pogues song (even if they’re not really irish) ?

Yeah the Daft Punk stems was a fluke, they were either bad MIDI renditions of the real thing or remix stems that was also in the wrong tempo for a song I don’t like at all from them, so what should I do for the Multitrack Pack if I am to join in on it?

Well I see they do have stems for Serj Tankian – Harakiri which I could have interest in doing, though I am not all that comfortable with paying around 20$ for stems that may or may not be fit for charting (I heard talk about missing parts of some of the DT tracks from Jammit).
You’re right about missing parts. I just bought Too Young to Fall in Love by Motley Crue and the harmony vocals are missing. Pretty disappointed.
doubtsDon’t doubt Jammit. By and large their stuff is beyond excellent.
I just bought Too Young to Fall in Love by Motley Crue and the harmony vocals are missing.See above. I’m willing to wager you missed the second harmony stem that comes separate from lead vocals.

Pretty disappointed.I never encountered a missing part but even if you have something that Jammit doesn’t cover (in example the saxophone), that is still in the full mix and can (actually has to) be extracted by a simple process of inversion, something you need to do anyway to get the backing track. Which is why we suggested you asked us what to do with the tracks in the first place.
Btw, missing bits and pieces are not uncommon in Rock Band. Queensryche’s Silent Lucidity is missing a vocal note on Jammit, it’s baked in the backing track AND at a very low volume. Lo and behold, the same note is missing in the Rock Band official DLC of the track, probably because it was baked in the backing track for them too and they left it out. We are always talking multitracks here, meaning not everything is guaranteed to be 100% as the final mix.

Those stems I got were not from Jammit. I got them through the Special Edition of the Black Clouds album, which came with a “Producer Edition” of all tracks. And it’s those stems that had the missing parts (which I assume are samples and could not be included). Everything I’ve gotten from Jammit had nothing missing (but the track I’m doing is not on Jammit anyway.)
I’m willing to wager you missed the second harmony stem that comes separate from lead vocals.There are two stems on guitar, but only one on vocals. Am I missing something?

Thank you

No, that song does not have harmonies in the audio provided to (and by) Jammit. You could see that by playing the preview for the vocals track on the Jammit website. It shows you that there’s only vocals + backing. So they’re giving you what they got. So yes, in your case there are no harmonies. If the “original” song had them, then what the studio sent Jammit is different, and much like HMX, there’s nothing else they could do.
In the future, make use of the preview function. Each preview is tailored to each song and each track, so you can see exactly what you’ll be getting before you buy it, including how many vocal/guitar/keys parts.

I still plan on doing the song for the anniversary pack even if i have to figure out a way to isolate the harmonies from the CD track.
That is a horrible, horrible, horrible idea. The likelihood that you will isolate harmonies out of a full mix cleanly is abismal. And the likely result is that the CD mix and the Jammit mix will be of different lengths, tempo, or composition, as it tends to be.
The best option (and if it were up to me, only – but don’t worry, I don’t make decisions anymore), is to chart only what is in the audio you’re working with. If this version of the song has no harmonies, then chart without harmonies.
