i need some metallca tracks without drums. where to get? - General

im looking for anything of the master of puppets and justice albums some songs are easy to find, like master of puppets and one, but some i cant find without drums, like disposable heros any help is appreciated

Usually the other way around is much easier to find. Your best bet is a Guitar Pro track, and then mute the drum track in it.

is there like a database of GP tracks like that?

[url]www.ultimate-guitar.com[/url] has basically every Metallica song ever, and most have Guitar Pro tabs. Most of said GP tabs have drums.

that site, solid, seems to only have tabs on how to play it on the website, as opposed to gp tabs

Obviously the TXT files will be of absolutely no help to you. ...Fixed. I'm really on a roll with fucking up tags today...

There's people who can rip songs from guitar hero games, and since Guitar Hero Metallica included the drum controller, the drum tracks would be separate and removable. I have no idea how you'd go about doing that though.

any tabs that actually sound like the song as opposed to sounding electronic?

[QUOTE=gerbile5;27880293]any tabs that actually sound like the song as opposed to sounding electronic?[/QUOTE] They'll ALL be in MIDI format, so won't sound real.

[QUOTE=gerbile5;27880293]any tabs that actually sound like the song as opposed to sounding electronic?[/QUOTE] No. You're not at all likely to get any quality tracks, end of discussion. You may be able to find some, but you aren't going to find many. You're actually lucky that there are tracks like that. Do with what you can get.

You need to realize that the mixing, mastering and finally printing the tracks onto CDs and vinyls compresses the separate instruments into a single track, that cannot be separated apart the same way. Some people upload on Youtube tracks with only guitars, or without a certain instrument. It's usually from Guitar Hero, where they had used the original separate tracks. But regarding Disposable Heroes, there are separated [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5SeFa-o4WI]bass[/url], [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7NgtViEcpU]guitar[/url] and [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NDuZdo5LKA] vocal[/url] tracks, so mixing them together you pretty much get the song without drums.

Luck

If you're looking for drumless tracks in order to cover it and lay your own track there, you don't have to have the drum track removed. If you play it accurately, the original track will be barely heard.
