Nevermore guitar tone in Dead heart...

[Keregioz]

I'm posting this thread hoping mr Sneap will answer... but if anyone else know about this please answer....

I want to know some information about nevermore's guitar tone in dead heart in a dead world like:
- What equipment did jeff loomis use??...
- How many times did he record the rhythm tracks??..
- How were the rhythm tracks panned??
- Did they apply any effect on the guitars? (compression, limiter, reverb etc)
- Did they use any other trick while recording or in the mixing process?...

ok, from what I recall. Some custom built 7 string with emg, tube screamer, Mesa Dual Rectifier, Standard Marshall cab and 2 sm57s. Tracked 4 times, panned 100% left and right and 80% left and right. No compression, limiting etc, just a touch of eq.

Ok... thank you very much for the info!...

One of the very best guitar recordings I ever heard and no comments about it??

Boy, things were very different back in 2002.

...I wonder how Andy had placed those two 57s....

"standard marshall cab" does that mean 75s?

I know it's an old thread but what the hell

Thanks Andy!

I noticed a lot of good threads from '02 when I clicked on the "last page" from the page navigator, Andy was way more active back then and you can actually get some really nice tips from back there too
