JVM410 + Impulses

[Carlsman]

Hi.
My band is going to record an album soon. I'm trying to get a nice sound from my JVM with the use of impulses.
Please tell me what you think of the tone!

And by the way, we're a poppunk band, so don't expact anything heavy!

Cheers!

Soundclick
only drums and guitars on this one and the playing is pretty sloppy

I like it! The drums sound very punchy. Also where is the bass?

Edit: Sorry didn't read that very last line.

 

[Carlsman]

The bass is not recorded on that one yet. It's coming though.
Here's some info on the guitars
ESP Eclipse Seymour Duncan > TS9 > JVM410 OD1 Green > Firestudio > Impulses.
Dualtracked.

What about some info on the drums?

 

[Carlsman]

Drums are DFHS with steven slate samples on snare and toms.
I haven't done much to the drums. Some EQ and compression on the hihat, overheads and ambience and a little compression on the snare.
On the masterbus I've got one compressor and two limiters.

Sounds great man ! I would only pay attention to the parts when multiple guitars appear (I think there's a bit of midrange built up) Other than that I love both the sound and the tune !

I used the Premier drumkit in DFHS.
The snare is the Snare3Z1a from SSD2.0 with a little bit of compression and a little bit of Z4 samples.
On the toms I just used the Qiktoms from SSD2.0, no other processing.
On hihat, overheads and ambience I used the URS Strip Pro. I used these presets on the channels:
HH - Drums:Hat
OH - Drums: OH2, and then I put a lowcut filter at 500hz.
AMB - Room: Room3, and then lowcut at about 100hz.
That's pretty much it. I feel like I'm a little bit lazy when using presets but at the time I was just trying to get a good tone and didn't care to much about the drums.

Akarawd, you're right about the midrange. I have to do some more eq on the guitars!

Thanks guys for your comments!

Great drums.

Punk-rock tunes like this are very refreshing to hear sometimes.
