oldschool meets breakdown? dense thick mix

[Jaymz]

So when Lasse says the mic was off axis is that pointing towards the center of the speaker or pointing outwards?

Erm im not sure about that one, I would assume pointing outwards but he will clear this up

 

[GuitarHack]

Since Lasse said it was OK for The Shred to post and since he couldn't remember the mic pos'n details I assume it's OK for me to clarify. The mic was mostly over the dustcap (so closer to pic 3 above) with about 4mm over the cone. It was pointing slightly towards the centre of the dustcap. Yes, towards the fizz. I am in severy fizzyland with that position using the same cab (albeit mine is slant and his is straight).

I really love the guitar tone... however i felt you had your own unique sound when using the ENGL...

 

[poidaobi]

(I know, Metaltastic will call it "woolly", I was going for a kinda Devil Driver type of tone on the guits ).

Hi 'woolly'. I'm boxy.

Damn song wont work for me.

 

[Lasse Lammert]

yeah, it was between #2 and #3, I'd say it was #3 , moved a few mm to the left (towards #2). so I'd say thw #3:#2 ratio was like 80:20.

mic was angled/pointing towards the center (but really just very slightly...dunno, like 10 degrees or so

I'll post the ampsettings before long.

#Gavin: I'll continue using the Engl cab as well of course....just gotta dewll in Mesa Land for a bit now

the Engl will always be my go to cab when it's supposed to be a bit more rock/less smooth, but when the Marshall would be too much.

 

[poidaobi]

Ok fucking sick as expected. Got it working.

Fuck can't wait to get home for the weekend and record the mesa.

 

[J.DavisNJ]

Ah thanks for the clarification!

Whenever I mic that close to the dustcap, my sounds is thin and fizzy to all hell!! how to do you do it, kind sir? lol.

Keep it up w/ the Mesa cab...\m/

[J.DavisNJ]

I usually end up with something close to #1, but then it lacks the high end clarity, but has lots of body. Hmmm.

[MetalJonesy]

really digging the guitars and kick!!

 

[Metaltastic]

Hi 'woolly'. I'm boxy.

Hahahahaha, you two play nice now!

 

[Force666]

Loving this mix. Personally i'm really liking the snare. Has qualities of one i'm recording right now. Was it by any chance a 13"? Any chance of a snare sample coming from this one?

 

[Jaymz]

So kinda like this?

With the mic itself slightly left aiming toward the spot pictured?

Sorry the red spot isnt bigger, but you get the jist of it

 

[Metaltastic]

Hahahahahahaha, that's one big fucking dustcap James, not exactly accurate to a V30

Hey im drunk and it was the first thing to come up on image search, give me a 5 minute break haha :Smokin:

 

[Jaymz]

That is actually just fucking shite....ill leave it up got a laugh. Let me post another.

 

[Jaymz]

Ok take 2 as Dr Flangeweed pointed out it was fairly inaccurate, here is my second attempt:

 

[Splat88]

Not a fan of the vox, but that's not your fault! This is a very professional sounding mix overall and I'm very impressed. Great work!

 

[JoeJackson]

Holy crap, the guitars sound awesome ... any chance to post a short clip of the rhythm-guitars only?

 

[Lasse Lammert]

updated with a cunthair more crack on the snare:

almost the same
