ThePretender Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 The credits doesn't mention those songs with strings being recorded for, so they're probably synths.

FORTsunrise Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 (edited) Didn't In Between have strings as well? I always thought that strings were playing through out or were they just synths?

gorast Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 There are live strings on HHH? Damn, need to re-listen to that, I always thought In Between was one of the six. also SIB and Numb sound really synthed Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/4663-lp-string-songs/#findComment-76622 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astat Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Reanimation -Opening (violins/cello by Phoenix) -Ntr\Mssion (violins/cello by Phoenix) -Krwlng (violins/cello by Phoenix) Meteora -Faint -Breaking the Habit Minutes to Midnight -Leave Out All the Rest -Shadow of the Day -Hands Held High -Little Things -No Roads Left -Blackbirds Take Ntr/Mssion and Faint off the list, and that's it. Ntr/Mssion is all piano, I think the liner notes on that were just copy-pasted from Opening. There's a quote from Mike in the From the Inside book (I think?) mentioning something about strings on BTH and Faint, but if they recorded them for Faint, they ended up not using them, the ones that appear on the album are programmed. Also, The Rising Tied had live strings on Remember the Name, Feel Like Home, Cigarettes, and Slip Out the Back.

JZLP-Benningstrong Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Papercut has strings at the end of the track but I dont think that those are live strings. Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/4663-lp-string-songs/#findComment-77200 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsw2010 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 WID has strings in it. Not sure if they're live though. I think they're synthazied. If not, it would've said so on the album notes.

LPMaskMan Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Also strings in the beginning of From The Inside, but I think maybe not real strings, just sampled.

Lotsa_spaghetti Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I'm pretty sure the 'strings' on In Between are played on an E-Bow. Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/4663-lp-string-songs/#findComment-117431 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astat Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I'm pretty sure the 'strings' on In Between are played on an E-Bow. No. An E-Bow doesn't sound anything like a traditional stringed instrument like a violin, it's just an infinite sustain device for the guitar (which is meant to sound like what would happen if you played a guitar with a violin bow, a la Jimmy Page). Pale? Those definitely sound like programmed/keyboard strings.

And I'm pretty sure I can hear Brad sliding his fingers up and down the strings.

And I'm pretty sure I can hear Brad sliding his fingers up and down the strings. I hear those sliding noises too, I actually wondered about that when the album first came out, but the band was pretty up-front about any kind of unusual instrumentation they used on other songs on that album, and they talked about the sparse instrumentation on that song in particular numerous times ("consisting of little more than Mike's vocal and a bass line" was the description of the seed in the MTM booklet). I think if it was guitar, Brad would choose to play that part live instead of the simple harmonic line in the choruses, as it's a much more dominant part. If anything, it might be a copy of the bass part that comes in during the second verse that's been run through some effects to make it sound synth-y. It's always possible that they just pasted those sliding noises into the song too, as you can hear a loop of a few of them over the last note of the song.
