Drums sound programmed. Its really obvious, try to make them sound more natural. That was my first thoughts. They sound good in the mix though.

ah, I was going to buy the truth set but I may hold off and wait to see the new stuff. An AA set sample? That would be awesome

Yea I was wondering if he used an MPC style thing or if he created his own samples or what

Just like the kicks, snares etc. throughout the synth parts

Just wondering what Joey uses for beat production? I did a search and didn't seem to come across anything.

Sturgis is a magical wizard with the pod. I have it and have not had much success with it so far lol. Def. not making any Joey Sturgis tones

do you think you could achieve a similar sound with Pod HD?

How would I go about re-amping?

I'm not a big fan of itb guitar amp simulators. I not sure how I would re-amp the guitar and produce a decent sound. The ones I have experimented with don't really sound good and cause a lot of latency and other issues that takes more time to fix than its worth really. I'm sure if I had a 16...

It takes a little time if you want to learn how to program synths. You can probably find some decent in depth tutorials on youtube or google but I would suggest buying a book on it. Another alternative: You say you use Sytrus, read the manual. If it doesn't have its own product manual, I...

Joey is a freakin genius. I would kill to be able to produce something that amazing.

Right now I'm running an Ibanez RG4Ex through a Line 6 amp and then out from that straight through the DI. I was wondering what are the best settings to set my amp at. I've read that you're not supposed to record a lot of bass with guitars because it will take up too much space in the mix...
