Mellotonaut - It seems you are one of few who actually like this crazy drum part.
My best mic right now is a Labtech $3 special, but perhaps some vocals will eventually appear.
Kara - I am in the middle of the 40 day demo for TruePianos, and still undecided on whether to buy or not. On one hand, I fear it is not quite realistic enough to merit the price. The decay of the notes does not seem right to me. However, it is very responsive and fun to play... a much more realistic feel than some soundfont or free piano vsti. And it does not require massive amounts of RAM and hard drive space for samples.
Laguna - The piano was not played on tempo (pure magic that I hit 2 minutes), so there is no quantize. Most of the track locks in very nicely. However, the syncopated snare accents are off, made worse by the kick bass disappearing. Sometime I will experiment with using sustain pedal as a kick drum. They were intended to sound human, but not intended to be so sloppy.
Although it is partially improvised, a lot of time was invested in the piano part. The drums were a rush job. A few minutes etching out some concepts, and then 3 recorded takes, and then I thought "OK, this one is good enough." Lesson learned.
Thanks to all for the feedback.
