I'd have thought the first 2 were rich's "duke of metal" jcm800? sounds really great especially on the first album whatever it is.
I'm pretty sure rich said all that remains was xxx.
I saw a vid recently where Rich stated he used that 50w JCM on everything he's ever released pretty much. It's certainly a badass amp if that is the case, so damn crunchy and huge sounding
But funny enough, Ive always LIKED this album and the sound quality kicks ass. I had no idea Andy touched it, but To find out Andy worked on it makes sense. Tight clean production!
I didn't think these particular threads would succumb to the same 'lolzomfgnecr0bumpz' as those in the other forums but nevermind.
It's only because I was cruising Youtube and came across Rich Ward's new band, and that lead me to a vid where he was talking about how he does things in the studio.
Monster Kick by any chance? I've tried using samples from that and the D5 but on their own they just don't stand up. They sound great blended in though as reinforcement.
