Do any of you guys know the nitty gritty on what was used to record the guitars and bass on Chaosphere?
There have been tidbits over the years, like how the band liked to run some TC Preamp Boosters into the amps and also graphic EQ pedals, but I've never had anything solid. The general live set-up they had seemed to be pretty convoluted.
The combo of the guitars/bass on that album is one of my favourite sounds ever, and embodies to me why the Rectifier is one of the best amps ever. The bass grit in particular sounds godly on this album, and I'm thinking it was likely run through the Recto as well?
Goes without saying that all of Meshuggah's material after this album went down hill, sonically. Not to mention rolling with those horrid trends to use digital amps.
I'd like to recapture some of the magic of Chaosphere - in particular the ability to pull grinding bass sounds which improve the perception of the guitars so much.
