Title says it all. I don't play my 6-string S770PB very often since I have an RG7621 but I have the opportunity to trade it for an RGA 121 NTF. Would I be losing money? Or should I just sell my S770PB and save for an Axe-Fx II since I rarely play my 6-strings anymore?

Hey guys. Spent the last week or so tweaking my Axe-Fx tone and this mix to get as close as I possibly could to the "Exoplanet" sound. Decided to just do an 18 second clip from the intro of "Advent". Here's the original: Here's my mix...

I'm trying out a new tone with my Axe-Fx and doing a mix test with the intro of "Advent" by The Contortionist. I've realized bass is a weak point in my mix and would love to hear it with a properly mixed grimy metal bass tone (albeit from a VST). So, before I order Trilian, Zombass or Texas...

I'm interested in buying Zombass 3 but I'd like to hear what it sounds like in my mix before purchasing. I'm doing a short mix test using the intro of "Advent" by The Contortionist and it would be really helpful if someone could bounce out a sample using this .MIDI and Zombass 3 (with a great...

Just wanted to get some feedback on one of my more recent mixes. Just wrote this riff to test out a new Axe-Fx tone (5150 sim). Drums are SSD. I'm looking for some tips, pointers, constructive criticism, etc. Cheers :kickass:

Hello, I've been doing quite a bit of changes to my mixing process lately and one particular place I realized I wasn't fond of was my snare mix. I don't think SSD is very well known for having great poppy/cracky snares (they have a decent piccolo but that's not what I'm looking for) and I...

Hey everyone. I decided I would upload a track I recently co-wrote and recorded for my new project Oculus. I would just like to hear everyone's opinion of the production and the song as well. Thanks!

Hey everyone, here's two clips I recently wrote and recorded. Let me know what you think! http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9951988/Eleven.mp3 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9951988/Shurima.mp3 :kickass:

Hey everyone, here's another recording I've done in the last month or so. It's sort of a progressive rock song, and I'd love some criticism (not only on the quality, but also on the music). ALSO, if anyone has a high-pitched singing voice along the lines of Claudio Sanchez or Anthony Green, I...

Hey everyone, I recently contacted the producer of King Conquer's last two albums "Decomposing Normality" and "America's Most Haunted" in an attempt to get the massive "shotgun" snare sound he achieved in these two albums. To my surprise, he sent me a great couple snare samples that I have been...

Hey everyone, here's a groove I thought a lot of people would enjoy and I would love some feedback! Also, if you like it I'd appreciate a "like" on my Facebook page, I'm trying to get my name out there! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wayfarer/179326788775312

Fractal has been out for weeks and I'm tired of waiting. Anyone have an excellent condition Axe-Fx Standard in the U.S. they want to sell?

I know, I know, we're on a UM forum but I've seen quite a few "Rate my mix" threads that aren't metal so I figured I'd see if anyone would be willing to rate this mix. This is a indie/acoustic project a couple friends and I have been working on over the last six months. We finished our demo the...

Anyone have some EVH 5150 III (preferably) or ENGL impulses they'd be willing to share? Celestion v30's and an SM57 or 421 if possible! I saw the comparison Ola did with the Axe-Fx and the real deal EVH 5150 III and would absolutely love to get my hands on the 5150 III impulse he used for that...

Hey everyone, since I use samples in a plug-in that doesn't "humanize" what I program, cymbal crescendos sound very odd. I am looking for a crescendo type sound that sounds somewhat like cymbals but is very uniform throughout. The exact sound I am looking for can be heard at 0:22 of The...

Hello. I wanted to see if anyone could successfully simulate the Circle Of Contempt tone on their latest album "Artifacts In Motion" using an Axe-Fx. Risto, of CoC, has said that they use the Axe-Fx now (they either used it or an Engl to record Artifacts In Motion). Either way, I would like to...

Hey everyone, just looking for some general criticism on this final mix I recently finished. It is all instrumental. Anyone questions, ask away. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9951988/Depths.mp3 Cheers.

Hello everyone, this happens to be around my tenth post on the forums and I wanted to give back some basic information to thank you all for the helpful tips and advice I've received while browsing the threads. The Basics of "Z" (or impedance): To begin, the "Z" is really just a symbol for what...

Hello everyone, I've heard a couple different opinions on this and I wanted to get it straight. When recording DI from the Axe-Fx to an interface, would I use two XLR to 1/4 inch cables from the BALANCED outputs of the Axe to the INSTRUMENT inputs on my interface? That is what I have gathered...

Hello everyone, I'm just looking for some general criticism on this mix. The guitars sound muddy to me and the the overall clarity isn't that great. I like how clean and clear Circle of Contempt's album "Artifacts in Motion" sounds, and would be very appreciative of some tips for cleaning this...
