hi ! for a new project of mine i'd like to have a similar rhythm guitar tone as this ( there is a little gap with the guitar alone at 0:29). i can shape decent tones i guess but i still cannot have this "grit" and that's what i'm looking for. might be a cranked preamp or simply a tube...

thnaks but i've already bought it. but i needed an upgrade from pt10. so $199 in all case.

thank you ! so i gotta buy and install it now !!

hi, i'd like to upgrade to protools 12 from my protools10 before dec 31th but i want to be sure what i buy as there are several upgrades. i am a bit confused. i think this one is the most complete one: http://www.thomann.de/fr/avid_upgrade_und_support_plan_12_m.htm, same as this one i guess...

i don't kow about their name history :) but they had big gigs in the past such as wacken, etc . and they will be on tour with soilwork and hatesphere soon. to be honest, i'm not fan, it's just a good band and only some of their songs are great to me, the others are pretty generic. i don't...

Hi. i don't know them since longtime but i quite like their stuff. Here is a song from their last album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=1&v=NnG3Wqw70cQ I don't like the production of this one tho. very muddy guitar tone and this snare sounds crappy as hell to my ears . their previous album...

hi. I'd like to buy a new bass for my home studio and it seems that for the price these ones are very good but i don't know which one can fit metal tones best. thanks for your help . http://www.thomann.de/fr/fender_squier_vint_mod_jazz_nt.htm...

my typical preprocessing for vocals is vocal rider, i print it then i apply vcc , slight compression and limiting and i print the result that will be imported in the mixing session. for bass it consists in light limiting and a touch of compression. that way i get somthing more compact if that...

by preprocessing i did not want to say adding verb, delay, or even eq actually but just taming peaks and adding a touch of compression if needed. just like it'd be done at the tracking stage. somtimes i receive projects that have tons of vocal tracks and starting from zero in the mix session...

hey i wonder if it's a common practice to preprocess tracks before mixing them. i usually work on bass and vocals raw tracks (vcc for a bit saturation and coloration, limiter, slight compression...) and print them in order to use less processing during the mix and save cpu. do you do that way?

thank you! so if it does not have major consequences in term of parameters or something and may "fix" some things, i'lltrash them all.

hi sneapers i work on a mac (os 10.8.5) and protools 10.3.9 with a digi003. i want to clean my system. i downloaded the protools pref & database helper software and i'm not 100% sure of what i have to check. I didnot find precise answers regarding my gear. for me "digisetup.OSX", "dae prefs...

sorry , I dont understand. I would be interested too but I cant buy any pack on your website.

good tips here! I usually use ssl comp too but I'll try the slate comp, I use them in every mixes and they sound really good. I'll give it a try with two limiters , makes sense! I only have t-racks brickwall limiter and l1 though. I also tried once with parallel comp but the result was weird...

does anyone tried this for mixing real drums? i have a demo to mix for my band and we dont aim to get a pro sounding stuff, just a preproduction. if this thing works with real drums , it could make us save a lot of time and better results for sure.
