    Need your help with DI guitar samples

    Hi, guys. I am constucting my own very simple DI guitar sample library. It will be used only for the first stage of song creation because I have problems with my left hand and can't play guitar as frequently as I would like. I am now in big pain and have to rest for awhile and to complete it I...

    Single coil friendly High Gain amp

    What about something from VHT/Fryette? I love their sound signature but don't know if they can rip like that with single coils too. Also, which model has the most amount of gain?

    Single coil friendly High Gain amp

    Hi, I have a Fender '56 Relic Strat with stock 3 Custom '50s Single-Coils which I love the sound of for non metal stuff but would like to be able to use it for metal as well. I know ideally I should go for a humbucker equiped guitar but still is there a metal amp that can sound powerful and full...

    -10dbu or 0db output?

    Thanks for the response Trevoire520 but with setting the fader so that the meter goes up to 0db, I meant for the mixer on the sampler and not the DAW one. So will the output from sampler be -10db despite the 0db setting of the mixer? Thanks!

    playing broken chords with two guitars

    I wonder how it will sound if for example I break down the minor triad chord into 2 dyads so that 1 guitar will play root and the minor third notes and the other guitar minor third and fifth notes. One will be panned hard left and the other hard right.

    -10dbu or 0db output?

    Hi, my hardware samplers nominal output is -10dbu (says in the manual). Now I wonder what comes out if I set the master fader to around 0db. Is it 0db or -10db then? Thanks

    What to play on keyboard over guitar chords

    Hello, metallers! I need some advise on the subject for composing black metal. I' ve done guitar tracks and on some parts I need some strings and choirs. What notes to play? Is it mostly doubling the guitar stuff, inversions, poly chords...? Thanks!

    is re-amp box really a must?

    Big boys at Palmer did it! A new reamper that has the -10dbV input option: http://www.adamhall.com/uk/AH_p--project_productdetailimages__prodid--875669__img--1 BUT I don't see a unbalanced input! That confuses the hell out of me:Smug:

    is re-amp box really a must?

    Thanks Marcus for the shootout! I think I liked the LLabs and REAMPV2 the most but all sound good. Now to my next question. Is there a reamp box that can accept -10dbV unbalanced as well? The thing is I would like to use the EQ unit first in the chain to alter the clean undistorted guitar sound...

    is re-amp box really a must?

    Hi, Metaltastic. Isn't sounding flat a good thing? I guess the harsh part can be tamed down with a nice 31 band graphic Eq unit that I have on hand? thank you

    is re-amp box really a must?

    Thank you sir! I suppose, with a guitar DI direct into distorted high gain amp would sound piercing as fuck. Maybe, for raw black metal that I am doin it would do just fine. Is it possible to post the comparison clips but with with the guitar this time? That would be really appreciated my...

    is re-amp box really a must?

    Hi, can't I just lower the output of the recorded DI track from line level to a guitar level and send it to the amp? I know the impedance is a lot lower but doesn't that make it even better? And there's one less box in the chain as well. Thanks
