Exothrash tone test!

[lolzgreg]

This is my first post here in a while, guys. A fellow forumite who purchased a custom impulse wanted a tone that was a Hybrid between Formation of Damnation and Exhibit B.

Dean Vendetta with Duncan Custom (my main axe)->Maxon OD-820 Pro->ISP Decimator->5150 III->Engl Pro Cabinet->SM57->SCA A12->RME Fireface 800 A/D

Nothing but a HP and LP:

Sneap, if you hear this per chance, I hope it makes you proud

I think you guys are going to dig it.

Wow!!!! This IS an Exodus tone!!! Good job Greg!!!

Interesting to see a 5150 III and Engl Pro Cab.. I was expecting a Mesa Cab for that.

What do you think of the SCA A12? Do you drive it hard? Does it add much to the tone?

 

[lolzgreg]

Thanks

It's a stellar preamp. I don't drive it super hard at all. I just drive it enough to get the signal hot enough into the A/D converter. I had the amp on like 3.2 post volume.

Gary Holt, is that you?

 

[lolzgreg]

I wish

 

[Triscore]

Sound very good lolgreg!

 

[AerialThesis]

there is a constant resonance around 2k and the tone is a tad too bassy for my taste. But the result is pretty pleasing.

Sm57 straight at the cone?

Sounds like the crunch channel on an XXX, but not as abrasive.


Well done, good sir. I applaud thee.

It's 100% on axis, just a bit to one side of the dustcap.

Gotta have a few things to myself. I think the biggest factor is the pickup and the way I play "thrash."
