Here my take on Eye of the Tiger, just feels like I'm putting lipstick on a pig.
I upped the tempo and gave it more crunch. The bass and galloping guitar in the background reminds me of kiss during their disco phase.
I didn’t do any vox because I have a hellacious cough that won’t stop for the past couple of weeks.
I wanted to do more, but I just don’t have the energy right now.
I used the following.
Jackson King V with Duncan distortions and Epi 58 goth explorer with Fishman Fluence moderns for the main riffs.
The gallop is my BCR Kerry King Warlock with stock pups.
Bass is my trusty Ibanez 605
All through various presets on my HX Stomp ... and yes I used Beast Mode!
Mixed in reaper
If anyone is brave enough to want to do the vox on this let me know and I can send you the file.
Or maybe I could try to contact Dave Bickler and do an eye of the tiger / real men of genius mashup
Here is Metal Eye of the Tiger. Enjoy~

I like what I have, I paid for it and use it sparingly as the Livetrack L20 is my go to for recording. I hate to pay for yet another program. It is Samplitude Pro. Has more than I need.
I tried Reaper once and cannot remember my dislikes.
Either way, should they not all work similar in that regard?

So if I find a song midi file, how does it become drums only? By slapping the drum plug in on it?

Yeah…pretty much…if you can find a plug that works with what you use. If what you use will let you load up VST plugins, should work fine.
Here is a bad analogy: think of the DAW software as a player piano, with the ability to change its sound to suit your needs(drums, keyboard, whatever plugins work for you)…think of the midi file as the music roll that you put in the player piano, to make it play.
You can make your own, or find one that someone else has made.

Cool! I will indeed look into that. MIDI means I can make it virtually anything.
I don't use the computer with a DAW as such, I much prefer the L20
So what I did was take both the song and the drums only on 2 separate tracks in puter. I copied a section of drums with a steady beat to use as click to time beginning. Pasted in front of each.
Now when I copy those to L20 I will have a stereo track of song with opening click and stereo drums w opening click. Play along, add tracks, do my thing then delete the song track thus leaving only drums plus my stuff.

Beauty, eh.
