    Piggy from Voivod tribute clip

    I wrote this riff instrumental with Piggy in mind. His style was so underated and I still hear stuff in albums years later that surprises me. JCM800 boosted by a modded RAT. G12t-75's Tokai VC75 with EMG89

    5150 and JCM800 recorded via 2 SM57's clip (SSD4 drums)

    Only a quick clip...I never do this, but I have two amps and two cabs so I thought I would record both at the same time. Chain: LP Studio (stock) > Hardwire CM2 boost > Ibanez stereo chorus (to split outputs) Left side: JCM800 > Celestion G12t-5 > SM57 Right side: 5150 > Warehouse CL80...

    KATIS JIM / EXORISTOI - O LITROTIS - Rare Greek Heavy Metal LP

    Note, crank the clip as it is only a mix, I did not play loudness wars with it yet... I just restrung and intonated my bass so I figured a track I'm working on would be a good op to see how they sound. The cobalt strings on my Les Paul have been on for a few weeks, but they only have a few...

    What plugs do you use to dirty up your tracks?

    I currently use Devil-Loc which is a distorting compressor and even amplitube 2 and 3 if something sounds too nice and bland. What do you guys use to destroy angelic basslines etc?

    Topic: USB2 vs PCIe Which will allow me the most tracks/vst effects/vst instruments?

    My M-Audio fast track is starting to chug, I think USB 1.1 is catching up with it as CPU and disk % is in single figures even with 20 tracks and effects applied. So I think the USB 1.1 is the bottleneck or it just does not like my AMD setup. I asked around and not many people can give me a...
