I tried hard to copy Mike's drums, and I'm fairly happy with how they turned out - especially since I kept the original snare which was a royal pain to work with.
The synth parts are a little warmer than Mike's version because I felt the low end need a little help since the bass doesn't come in until the first chorus.
The vocals were tuned using Samplitudes built-in Elastic Audio tool (similar to Melodyne.) I also used Melda's free MAutoPitch plugin to auto tune my corrections even further. The vocal echoes in the chorus are done based on Mikes description in his Mix Rescue article. Very cool effect!
There's probably some masking still going on, but I'm not sure what to do at this point to clear it all up without destroying what I have. Let me know what you think! Suggestions and critique are strongly encouraged. Thank you.
