Sounds cool, the guitars are pretty old school which is nice, the kick gets pretty lost in the mix but other than that can't wait to hear the finished track.

 

[chaosmonger]

sounds good to me. One question:
GEAR USED????
(Guitar, pickups, amp, cab, mic, mic pre, etc., please)

 

[broken81]

kick gets pretty lost in the mix

yea i just tried on a few different systems and anything with no bass you cant hear kick at all

gear used

guitar= aria pro II knight warrior with a Seymour Duncan distortion pickup (passive)

guitar head= peavey ultra plus 120

cab= Marshall 1960 with g12t 75

( speakers actually date back to 1979) this cab actually was the guitarist of Halloween for sure and stryper i think a couple local guitar hero's. Drummer from Halloween runs a studio my band recorded at before but long story how i ended up with cab.

Mic= sm57 on axis 1 inch back and 1 inch to side of cone

Mic= senhiser e609 right in middle of cone

I recorded 2 tracks with e609 and 1 track with sm57

preamp were just stock digi001 which is digidesign digi001 interface

i rolled up from 60hz on down and high passed at like 12k and used Andy's c4 preset and thats about it!!

oh yea i was just testing tone my guitar strings are like 3 months old uke:

Waiting to put on new ones till drums are 100% done so tone should improve a bit.

Not to shabby, I agree that the bassdrum gets lost at times.

 

[Murderislegal]

Sounds pretty good.

 

[broken81]

yea i changed snare sample and did some compression to bring up the thump in bass and gave it a lil more click (mixed in pantera kick)

I will post more clips to real recording of song soon!!
