Just instrumental for now. This was a lot of fun to record! I made something up for Fredrik's solo section instead of trying to learn his fucked up alien transmission.
This was tracked through my Axe FX for the DI signal. I ran it into Reaper and used ezMix 2's Meshuggah presets for the guitar and bass sounds, with some tweaking in the mix. The drums are the Superior 2.0 Koloss pack, with some tweaks.
Also, I definitely didn't program these drums myself. Tomas Haake did. These came with the Metalheads expansion for ezDrummer. If they weren't pre-programmed I probably would have never done this.
From the original teaser post:
"Since I just got my first 7 string, I decided to do the most cliché thing possible and record a Meshuggah cover.
This is also a chance for me to play with Toontrack's Koloss samples for Superior Drummer and Frederik Thordendal's Koloss presets for ezMix. It's also an excuse for me to be lazy and not fiddle with settings, and focus on learning the song instead..."
