Looking for Final countdown synth recording

Sign in to disble this ad
A band I'm playing with insists on covering the final countdown and they want a pre-recorded synth playing the synth parts. Then we would just play over the top of the recording.

Does anyone know where I could find a recording like this?

I could make you one. I think I have the midi or could find it and just run it through my synth.

Download Guitar Pro and then the GP file from this page.

You should be at least able to print the sheets and tabs.

I use Tux Guitar (it reads and writes both Guitar Pro and PowerTab files) and it can export to MIDI as well. I can run it through my synth tonight if you want me to.

Here is a mp3 based on the Guitar Pro file tab. I don't have the original song so I didn't check it for accuracy. Listening to previews, I think the synth sound is close enough.

wow, thanks a lot for that. If you have time to run one through your synth that would be awsome. My band just played to the file that you left and we really appreciate it.

Thanks a lot.
