Hey guys,
I need some help on my guitar tone. I've been working on it for a while now and just kinda burned out on it so I figured some extra input from people a hell of a lot more knowledgable than me would help. Here's the deal:
There is next to no mixing done at all on this sample. I high-passed the guitars at around 60Hz and lo-passed 'em at about 11kHz. Guitars are double tracked. Guitar used was an Ibanez S-series with Lundgren M7 pickups into a tubescreamer into the 5150.
Settings for the 5150 (all out of 10) are:
Gain: 4.7
Lo: 7.5
Mids: 2
Hi: 4
Res: 7
Pres: 8
Standard mic-up deal - on axis and off axis 57s right into the Digi 002.
The bass I low-passed at around 7 kHz and HP at around 60Hz again. There's some compression on the bass as well.
As for the drums I just boosted around 3k on the snare just to give it a little more pop and blended the born snare. If I remember right I've got a blend of the real kick and the shadows fall kick going for the kick.
I think that covers most of it. Basically what I'd like is just some feedback on what YOU guys think need improvement. I want to make sure that I have a decent enough tone that I can mix it and get it sounding good. Anyways, here she is:

Thanks a ton for all your help. If it is any help I can also get some pictures of the mic positioning up sometime tomorrow. Thanks again.
