Groove Metal (sort of) track

Hey!

I broke my d-string on my guitar and got a bit inspired to record something. Funny, cause you have to think a bit differently and you end up with other stuff



I tried to make the drums a bit different on this one to keep a lot of transients in the snare/kick/toms, so they really would pop out. Is it too much?

Drums are sup 2.0 with rep. snare/kick.
Gtrs are just x50 + a lot of post tube saturation (maybe a bit too much?)

Still don't have any real bass here, so its just a pitch shifted gtr.

Any comments would be appreciated!

Hey, mate, how did you record the guitars?

Did you use TSE x50?


Great song.

Thanks!

Yep just x50.

The guitar chin is just my Fender Strat -> EMU 404 USB interface -> TSE x50. Actually I just used the default settings as you load it up. Then a bit of EQ to boost the high mids and highs, and finally 2 instances of Voxengo Warmifier for some extra tube distortion.

Digging both the mix and the riffs! great work man!
