5150 rythm channel settings for rythm guitars

[_Protoss_]

The band is my own - Machinate; however we don't have a vocalist and are having real trouble finding someone

Glad you liked it dude, there are some more songs below (with the same guitar sound etc):

OMG!

Nothing to add

I hate to question this but...these songs were quadtracked?

Regards!

Yep quadtracked, and the TS is the stock PodXT one.

Cheers for the comments guys!

I have reached a point where I only use the Green channel for dirty guitars...always TS in front (actually prefer SD-1 lately!) level noon, tone 1 o'clock, gain off or almost...

Bright & Crunch IN
Pre-~1 o'clock
Bass-between 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock
Mids- between 9 o'clock and 10 o'clock
Treble- noon to about 1 o'clock
Post -~10 o'clock
Res- 2 o'clock
Pres- 3 to 4 o'clock

Yeah, a little ambiguous, sorry, but the settings change depending on guitar and cabinet being used. I've got a Frankenstrat loaded with an old EMG 85 with 18V mod that sounds so big I have to dial back the bottom, especially as the post goes up.
I guess the settings change based on what sounds best to me!!

im a huge fan of less pre-gain on the 5150 5 at most usually around 4 low 6 mid 4 high 6 pretty brutal tone from that

almost the same settings and we have a block letter and a 5150 2

Machinated, the band is spectacular (and the tone) I'd sing for you if you could smuggle me out the US

If your up for recording some vocals over these tunes, seriously go for it man and send em over!

Sounds fucking awesome man. Really, really good. Amazing tone.

What processing is on them - a C4 across the low mids plus the odd 1dB notch here and there? (and of course the old HP/LP)

 

[Machinated]

Cheers Dan!

No C4 - Just a bit of EQ and HP/LP from URS CSP. I'm sure that on this one that the cuts and boosts are less than 1dB just to make a little space here and there.

 

[Machinated]

Does your 5150 have factory tubes?

Whoops - missed this. Tubes are stock factory ones.

 

[Sly]

Machinated, how do you set your tubescreamer for this tone ? Typical drive 9 o'clock, tone 12 o'clock, balance 12 o'clock ?

 

[Machinated]

Yeah, roughly that, maybe the drive and level a little higher though.

Really need to buy a real TS.....

well, I tried, remember? Or did I ever send that over? I'm more of a melodic singer, scream once in a while. The song you sent me, I had a killer melody for it, but it was out of my range in the tuning you used. But I did dl all the songs. If I have time I'll fuck around with them, get you all fired up, then say "fuck it" and not send it to you. I'm too critical of my own voice.

 

[Machinated]

Ah, you didn't say you got something recorded in the end. I'd still love to hear it, even if you aren't 100% on it - still better than nothing IMO.

Send ME!!!!!
