    metal core mix. [KSE-style, 5150, Mesa]

    The sibilance of the vocal is a little harsh and pushy especially on the stereo vocals during the chorus. Cymbals are a little too focused in the lower high end and not sitting clearly in the presence region. Low end is pretty punch though and sounds good.

    Atheos (brutal death metal) - input to final mix

    Bass sounds like it has a bit too much low end in it, are you high passing the bass at all? The low end relationship between guitars and bass is 100% of what makes guitars sound fat. Bass is a bit loud I'd say, and the low end of the kick seems to not have any room to be punchy. Is your bass...

    New Slipknot ".5: The Gray Chapter" - Drum Sound

    My only problem with "raw and natural" sounding drums is how much less headroom everything else can take in order for them to feel huge. The bass on this album mainly just feels like it's not even there. I like the production but the low end doesn't feel nearly as consistent and huge as other...

    Best bass distortion plug-in

    Gonna have to check these out. I wonder if you can profile those pedals by themselves convincingly with the Kemper now that they let you profile heads without cabs (in the beta firmware as of this posting).

    Mixing Practice - Metallica Battery (DI/Stems/Vocals/MIDI included!)

    Wowwwwwwww, I'm literally in the process of tracking a cover of this with Markie also lol. I'll still post mine since I'm gonna go all out on it and do a ton of vocal tracks too. Thanks for the post! Edit: Dawg that's not how those riffs go lol.

    Andy Interview (kemper related).

    I'm so happy to hear Andy isn't some analog gear snob and keeps pushing his productions forward with advances in technology. What a great idea with the playing the tracked amp with the DI. In making my impulses I've been thinking of fun ways to trick the Kemper and my DAW into making better and...

    DACs for 2014/2015

    The difference between converters pales in comparison to many many other aspects of your chain, and far less than acoustic treatment for your control/tracking room, so make sure that's up to snuff before you spend that much on so few channels.

    Rosen Digital Impulses

    We're referring more specifically to EQ, saturation etc., not stuff that's on auxes. We didn't want the mix to be BORING. We lol'd at mexican seinfeld comment btw

    Practice Time 06 - ALL THAT REMAINS - This calling

    Thanks! Yeah the video is just a few parts with drums since I'm talking also, 98% of the video is edited so the camera mic cuts out appropriately.

    Practice Time 06 - ALL THAT REMAINS - This calling

    I love this song, thanks for the DIs! I did a mix and tutorial on my mix. both to promote our new impulses and also because I believe there are no secrets :D I re-tracked the bass DI to be more simple like the one in the song, I explain it in my tutorial. I also used the real vocal stem as...

    Lasse Lammert Rig Pack for Kemper

    I wanted to say that I'm receiving my Kemper this week, and a large part of why I bought one was because quality profiles like this are available. The Kemper is the such an amazing device, and I'm beyond stoaked to reamp shit with these profiles.

    Metalcore/Djenty Production (Advice?)

    This has a lot of potential imo. Guitars a way muddy as people have said, I'd try a different reamp if possible, something brighter in general. Kick drum is perfect probably, the rest of the kit just needs to be brightened up a bit, it's all a bit mid focused right now. Brighten up everything...
