We still don't know (I think) where the project will stop. The current intention is to stop before the sung portion ( ), but maybe it will grow? Who knows.
I have worked on the MIDI yesterday! I listened to the song very closely, and yeah, the guitar riffs were a tiny bit off. It may seem like an insignificant detail, but in the final product, it can make quite a change. Also, the bass guitar during the high pitched lead melody was very weird. It sounded stuck in C, while the chords changed from Dm to C to Am. The performances are pretty much "flat", so I'd recommend the players to improvise a bit, especially the bass. Listen to the original - the bass player improvises quite a lot, and it has a great effect in the final product. Another "fix" is that I added the piano part. It's very subtle, but noticeable. There is also yet another synth part - very brief, in the first few bars, some synth string-like chords.
As soon as I can, I'll make my version available. Maybe tonight. I won't dictate that my version is the definitive. I think it's up to the players to decide what is more accurate. And, again, I tell you to listen closely to the original. It can clear out many doubts.
