CLIP: Recto into g12T-75

[Lasse Lammert]

just fannying about with this setup (trying to like the t75 ab bit more).
I was going for a kinda DHIADW feel...hence the similarities in the riff...I used a bit more Gain though, it was not my goal to copy it spot on....I just wanted to achieve a good tone with the t75...which has always been hard for me.
I really don't like this speaker too much...still some of my very favorite tones have been recorded with this speaker so I though I'd give it another try.

how do you like it?

A little boomy but not bad at all!
I wanna buy a 1960 cab because also my favourite tones was done by 75's.
Where do you find the spot on a 75?

 

[JonWormwood]

Was this center/on axis with a 57?

 

[Lasse Lammert]

the boomyness comes from the bass, I didn't spend much time on that.
2x sm57, both mics were on axis..one was dead center, the other one a bit more to the side.
the outer one was like 10-20dB softer than the center mic

EDIT: reduced the volume of the bassguitar a bit...same link

Sounds good Lasse.

I've always liked playing my Recto through my Marshall cab on the occasion I haven't got my traditional cab with me. I have only tried micing it through that cab once through and I had the mids too high and it came out very boxy.

I'd love to hear this tone in a mix...I think it'd sound great.

 

[::XeS::]

You could try to put the sm57 on axis to the junction (dustcap / cone) and raise a little bit the recto's presence...I'm curious

 

[Lasse Lammert]

will record more files later

Sounds good to me! I don't think 75s are bad speakers, but they are not my favorites. The generous low end is pretty fun to play on, but I'm not always a fan of the high end sizzle...although with certain amps it is cool!

im liking it, its a tad too grainy for me, but its something that i can live with and can be fixed with a bit of eq, all in all its pretty decent!

 

[John_C]

i reckon that sounds good. Maybe blended with a single 57 on a V30 would sound nice

It's refreshing to hear something other than V30s

 

[Metaltastic]

Pretty cool, a bit more sizzly than DHIADW, but honestly, sizzle is kinda what I feel that tone needs more of, so I dig it! Still, it could use a bit of taming IMO, a happy medium!

 

[ParsonsMatt]

Sounds good!

Why don't you ever post drums with your clips?

 

[Lasse Lammert]

well...just trying some reamping between my projects....don't have the time or skills to program drums

usually when I'm posting full songs with drums it's from bands I'm producing/mixing etc....
these comparison clips are jut shootouts I'm doing for myself which I thought you could be interested in

 

[grywolf627]

Actually Lasse, I quite like this tone.

+1

 

[Habsburgs]

Nice tone! You should make an impulse

 

[lolzgreg]

It's a bit too grainy and I've heard better from you, Lasse. Keep workin at it.

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

Interesting...would love to hear more longer clips, maybe "Dead Heart in Derbyshire" or "Engines of Backstage"

 

[TheDude]

Lasse, try to aim the mic on axis, just outside the dustcap and move it close/further away until you get some high end. Sounds just little too "centered".

oh, I like it btw!
