Come on, look at the distance mics for the gats.

 

[Damian B]

Tiled floor?

Tiled floor?

KEEPIN IT FRESH when they record.

if you go back to the record this picture is from and listen to the guitar tone, you won't care to know how they did it, lol

it sounds like poop

I'm friends with Ross, the engineer who produced the first Devildriver album. Incidentally, I designed and built his website.

Awesome guy, incredible engineer with a lot of great credits in just about every style of music imaginable. However, he and I have had some interesting discussions/arguments about metal guitar tone LOL.

The drums on that album sound fucking amazing, it is worth checking out for that if nothing else.

I wouldn't say it's terrible, but certainly nothing special; kinda thin and reminds me of a Pod (mostly cuz it's undergained IMO)

IVe never heard the cd before. But if it does sound like a pod it would be funny as joey is known for using a pod and he doesnt like it.

 

[Jaymz]

I quite like the tone, but that is a RIGHT FAFF ON style mic setup.

 

[-J-]

looks like he worked on ratt's out of the cellar - good album.

Tiled floor?

Tiled floor actually helps a lot to setting the mic distances correctly

 

[musickey]

Can anyone explain why there is so many guitar cabs in use? I know it makes mention of a stereo setup.

 

[Lasse Lammert]

might be because I'm on the quest for weird guitartones today, but I must admit...listening to it now...I really like the tones

 

[nwright]

i've seen the Royer/MD421/sm57 setup in pics on here before...The guy from Theocracy IIRC...

Shane, sorry for this big OT and indiscretion, but.

Are you son of a Doobie Brothers Member???

[Genius Gone Insane]

Not that I give a shit but maybe a PM is more appropriate

 

[Metal Overload]

Well, i think it´s nothing bad or insultive, but if it is, Sorry Shane.

 

[FalseMessiah Mike]

Yeah not a fan of the guitar tone on that record, which is kinda funny considering the effort that must have gone into setting up all those microphones... can you say overkill? Drums sound quite good though.
