Cheers for the reamps guys! Just for the record, I'm not looking for a final product or to have someone reamp for an EP or album or anything (yet...), this is just to make sure my DI's are up to par and to give you guys some solid playing with which to reamp!
Scoot; I really like the raunchy, growly character to the amp, but it needs way more cut! First clip is the best; up the presence and treble and maybe mic more towards the dustcap and you'll be in business. That'll also help bring out the 'melody' as you put it. Which cab are you using, btw?
Burny; I agree, non-Fredman sounds way better. Yours also has a bit of a muffled quality to it, although not as much as Scoots. Are you LPF'ing at a low spot, or is the amp just not dialed in for a lot of treble?
Marcus, you've really gotta try the 89. I know you didn't like the 85, and I agree - it's too muddy/cloudy in the low midrange and doesn't have a tight enough ass. That said, I prefer EMG's at 9v (even the 81), so that could come into play. The 89 is really an organic 81, though - the smooth top end and organic qualities of the 85, but the tighter low end of the 81. And it 'splits'!
