Thanks for this. I love these kind of FX and bell cymals like the Zildjian ice bell.

One of the things I really like about the Central Station that I didn't like about the Big Knob is the rack unit+remote. With the Big Knob I had to use longer cables to go from my interface to the BK and back to my monitor amp (using passive Events), but with the CS, it's in the rack with my...

As for the BK being faulty, I concur with Ahjteam, try your signal chain with the BK removed to see if the noise is a bad cable or a fault somewhere else. If not, then it probably is a faulty BK. As for possible alternatives to the BK, if you're interested, I had a BK for a few years and...

If I understand correctly what you're asking, the closest thing I can think of is there are some seperated multitracks of popular metal songs on YouTube. They're seperated out as far as 'drums track,' no individual drums, only full drum bus mix, 'guitars' which is usually all guitars, 'bass,'...

I tune my King V to C standard and use 13-56. I suppose I could go heavier, although I'm not sure my tuners will allow for much more. I made that mistake once before where I bought a set that was heavier and the lowest string wouldn't fit through the damn tuner. I don't recall the size of...

I have several different Jacksons. I have a Rhoads V that I'm planning on putting some lighter guage strings on for doing leads and solos, perhaps I'll try that one for cleans as well and see how it sounds. And I'll experiment back and forth between neck and bridge and in between. All my...

I'm using a Jackson King V with EMG 81/85's currently. When I do something clean tone, I usually keep it switched to the bridge pickup, and I'm using heavy guage strings. I'm using Amplitube 3 with the Rectifier model, on the clean channel for all my cleans. The clean sound I get is pretty...

I thought this was pretty good actually, and I think the singer has a great voice honestly. For whatever that's worth.

YAY! :D

LePou, if you're taking a break from plugin development, are you not going to finish LeCab 2? Just curious, as I've been looking forward to that for quite a while. Thanks for your awesome work. Many of your plugins have become 'go-to' things for me.

I'm not quite sure how to answer as to whether it's worth it or not because I don't know how much you'd use it, but for me, when I need to burn a redbook compliant CD, CD Architect is a must have. The way you can arrange your tracks on a timeline and determine the amount of time between each...

Sony CD Architect. I've been using it for over a decade. It's pretty much the best redbook CD app in my opinion.

Have you used the Concertgebouw 1200 seat concert hall set?

Honestly, in the context of being double tracked and in a mix, they both sound pretty beast.

Sounds like maybe my first instinct was the right one after all. I'd heard quite a few good things about those ART units, but I guess I second guessed what I'd been hearing. Thanks for the input everyone.
