Argh, didn't read this properly, sorry. Post removed.

Thanks for the tip Lasse, I'll be trying that tonight. :kickass: I love this place so much, learned heaps in the year I've been here.

Not to mention that 99% of everybody else on the planet can't distinguish real drums from programmed ones anyway. I've not ever been asked if the drum sounds I use are fake or programmed (even by other musicians), even though I use SSD and to me it's a long way from natural sounding...

Thanks Onqel, another top-quality plug! I like this even better than SoloC for the boost, and I'm glad it's finally got a GUI (been using it naked :guh: )

Thanks for putting the files back up, and thanks for giving permission Ola. My 6 month old daughter was stomp dancing to this last night, she particularly likes the part where the vox come in!

Dude I was weighing up basically the same dilemma only a couple of weeks ago, except I was tossing up between the Profire 610 and the Saffire Pro 24. FWIW I got the Saffire (DSP model too) because as solid as the 610 appears to be, the Saffire has those hallowed Focusrite preamps. At the very...

Icee - I've been on this forum for a good while now, over a year all up if you include my early lurking days, but I've only made a handful of posts as I've been busy reading. If you want heavy mixes this is THE place to learn from and these are THE people to learn it from. Read, read, read, put...

Looking forward to it mate!

Once again this slays Erik. Gonna have to get another iPod that's not full of your tone test clips... The riffs in this song are the next level up from your Dandelium demo though mate!

I hereby formally request that article! This was awesome man, very easy to read and very helpful to me personally. Thanks for sharing!

Graphtech supercharger kit is in the mail, looking forward to the both the tuning stability and potential sustain gain. Anyone noticed the reduced highs after installation that their website mentions? This might actually help warm up my guitar. And I ordered the D Activator-X, time will tell...

Also pick hard man, Erik does.

Yeah that's the X2N description, I looked at that originally as X2N + alder is thought to be a good match (Death!) but decided the D Activator-X might suit my guitar as it pumps out the mids and rolls off the highs a little more. At least going from the diagram on the Dimarzio site anyway. Will...

Thanks for the responses. Obviously the guitar tech at the local music store here sucks, he couldn't get my Fender to play nicely in Drop C let alone way down there. Must learn to do this myself. So far I'm interested in the Graphtech nut and bridge saddle packages, bit apprehensive about the...

I've got a '96 Lone Star strat that I want to customise to make it more metal appropriate. Customisation is my only option as I can't afford another guitar and don't want to sell this one. I need some guidance from those with more experience as to humbucker and nut options. Any suggestions...
