A lot of rock music is recorded live in a studio to capture the energy of the performance, and the timing can fluctuate which makes it sound organic.

Eastman are cheap and good.

 

Really nice song!

Some ideas for the guitar:

- Try triggering release samples / fret noises instead of just letting notes ring out into silence.
- Sprinkle in ghost notes / choked notes.
- Hit the highest (or a higher) velocity layer on strong beats.
- Use bends and vibrato, especially for notes that are held for longer.
- Look into hammer ons/offs, sliding, pinching and tapping articulations.
- Don't skip out on the occasional chord instead of single note->single note->single note.

 

Great I will try it ,many thanks.
