Its a pretty cool sound you got on this dude's DI track dude! Can you get a tone like you did on that short clip using ryan's s-preshigh impulse? Its just I like this sound but don't own Recabinet or any of the Redwire impulses

recabinet is only $15

Well, this is the first time ever that someone likes my tone, so thanks a lot. When I got Recabinet and Red Wire I tried to copy the s-preshigh impulse because I rely liked it but it kind of gave an unwanted amount of low-end when used with my 7-string guitar. I think the combination I used with those impulses sounds kind of different from my original imitation, but here's the same settings with s-preshigh: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1643345/zz99 - Misc Shit/le456 s-preshigh.mp3

Same settings, but different EQ:

--- HP: 80
--- -3dB: 130 (q= 7)
--- -2dB: 2800 (q= 25)
--- LP: 10500

I doesn't sound exactly the same, though, I think it has more highs and less middle than my first one, but I am sure that further tweaking would get a tone very similar to the original one.

Also: Recabinet (the complete library with modern and vintage impulses, see their website) is only 20 usd and the Mesa Rectifier Red Wire impulses are just 9.95. I think they are both really worth it.

Dude, im fucking in love with that tone ! specially the one in the beginning, the riff with that tone sound very slipknot-ish right?

Amazing job!

Yeah, I really like the samples you have put up! I'll try the same settings out later on a song I'm working on.

It's kind of trial and error. There's some threads on guitar EQ, I remember learning from those threads, you can search for them under this same sub-forum

Ok, here is a rough mix using the settings you posted -

http://www.esnips.com/doc/f7f6855a-f30b-4058-b625-e4e21f7b0e62/Inhalation-Of-Bile---Mix-1

The bass was TSE X30.

Let me know what you think and what can be done to improve the sound!

sounds good to me, maybe the bass should be a little louder. I'm sure you could get better feedback if you post it in the rate my tone forums, as I am no expert obviously. Anyway, I like how it sounds, man

Thanks dude, I have also posted it in the rate my mix thread now.
