    Demo of how master volume affects guitar sound.

    Cool test. I liked it at 4 best.

    I'm dumb, can't make my own IR

    I have no idea why it would be different than shooting an IR of any other signal chain. Take it with a grain of salt. I am probably less versed in this than you, just saying that I remembered reading somewhere that Rectifiers were more difficult to capture for some reason or another related to...

    I'm dumb, can't make my own IR

    Just to add, I feel like I have read that Mesa's power amps are designed in such a way that makes them more difficult to capture a good IR

    Kurt Ballou Signature Series Drum Library

    It's presale currently. We get the actual kontakt instrument the 23rd. I will try to post something.

    What happened to this forum?

    I would be all about some practical info on drum tuning. I feel like I have a good grasp on most things but drum tuning is something I know little about.

    TESTAMENT

    This is super promising. I liked the production and some of the playing on the last one but couldn't get over other aspects. This just sounds crushing and on point. Wish Andy would pop in and tell us some of the details about the mix on this one.

    Top loadboxes for the money

    The Fryette is on my short list of must own items. The loadbox and direct out aspect is cool and surely an improvement over the Weber Mass I use currently, but what I am most stoked about is the effects loop. I can finally dial in my pedalboard and have my delay and verb effects consistent from...

    New Metallica

    Hetfields vocal delivery is the worst part to me. The mix almost works in a punk rock old school kind of way. As a fan of audio that sounds good it bothers me that it doesn't. particularly when I know that these guys could hire anybody they wanted. What frustrates me though, as a fan of the...

    New Machine Head song

    The last couple records have been pretty solid. They were due for a stinker.

    Dirk Verbeuren new Megadeth drummer!

    I think it's pretty cool that he joined Megadeth. Im sure he could use the extra income that a high profile gig like this affords. He will probably hang around for 3-5 years like everyone else and go back too doing more underground technical stuff.

    Kick Mic Shootout! 11 mic's, 3 positions

    Yeah maybe. Glad to hear that hasn't been your experience though. Due to the popularity of that mic on this forum I sort of wondered if it was a unique situation.

    Kick Mic Shootout! 11 mic's, 3 positions

    Cool shootout. I have a buddy that runs a fairly busy studio who has gone through two D6's in the last year. Doesn't seem very reliable long term. I want to try that new AKG D12 model they came out with. It got a really good review in Tape Op

    Celestion H Creamback VS Vintage 30.

    Both do sound awesome, I still prefer the V30. It just has more cut.
