Scratch

Anything really. Whatever you're good for. 

sydrodk, would you mind uploading some audio of you playing guitar? If you're good enough I can put you on guitar and I'd be on bass. 

Also edited the main post - now each one of you will need to upload a short audition so I can see your skills

sure I already have a project in my gallery called I'm bored that has me playing some songs

Ok, added to main post    Hey, recording2 on that project sounds pretty good, loved those chords. Perhaps you'd be better off playing the chords while I play the lead, since recording1 (which had some melodies rather than just chords) was kinda sloppy, but I'll assume it was because of the mic - hopefully you can find a way to hold it properly. 

I've never used mic stands (or mics at all, haha. I connect my instruments directly to an USB interface), but I guess you could buy a cheap desk stand and you'll be good to go    Either that or you could figure out a way without buying anything.

Can I be an Autotuner/Editor?

We need a name for the band. I'll suggest a couple:

Crazy Owls- I thought up this name since I am an owl fanatic, but I'm not too sure everybody will like this name.

Scratch the Kats- This is after all a band on Scratch, right? In my opinion this is a good name. 

I'll make a Weebly website once we come up with a name. 

I may join for some keyboard synthetic sounds, but I can't play any super complicated beats...

You see, I never actually took piano lessons but I have a keyboard and I'm pretty good at coming up with beats...

here's my audition: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/jslomba-test/1891332. sorry for the slowness in the beginning, I can fix that.

K, added brettman to the list - awaiting auditions.

jslomba, your audition doesn't really have the best sound quality and it's kinda sloppily played imo.    Perhaps veggieman could be the drummer and you design the logo once we decide on a name? If you're good enough you could be our graphics guy when we need advertising, album covers and the such 

I'd also like to audition for keyboard.

I could play some synthetic stuff and help write some of the songs...I'll send an audition soon.

did veggieman do well on the keyboard audition? because my drum one, I couldn't find my good mic and I was in a hurry and I couldn't come up with anything good, so maybe he could play keyboard and I could play drums.

He's a pretty decent keyboardist from what I heard, but I still need to hear brettman's audition to decide.

@designer45: Pretty good singing, you seem to have trouble reaching a high note in the end but I don't really mind that. You could try to get a better recording quality though, not sure if it's just Scratch compressing the audio though.

hey, you know I kind of suck actually 

what if I helped smooth out some of the audio and developed some basic beats for songs? maybe write some notes for a few of them...
