PODxt + DFHS + Guinness Draught = New Tune

[Element77]

Check it out, I just posted a rough outline of a new tune "The Fault".
It makes me want to punch emo kids. Then feel bad about it later.
I'm sure I'll listen to it tommorrow and want to change some stuff, but I want to post it now. It's kind of a mess, and needs some transitions fixed but I'm impatient!

Put on your listening ears!

No expert but...

Sounds nice and big, man. A little boomy at 0.43+ though. I love the breakdown!

 

[Element77]

Thanks for the words! But what do you mean "0.34+"?

43 seconds. I hear what he means, but I kind of like it.

Great stuff dude!

 

[Metaltastic]

Wow, great tone dude - what model did you use on the Podxt? The riff at 43 seconds grooves really hard, and I like the boominess - I don't find it overpowering

Sounds awesome! What were your settings on the PODXT?

 

[Element77]

ooooooh. Duh/ I see what you mean! I think it's my stupid "bass" again. But my POD is a Tredplate, but I'm using Boogex with guitarhack Impules. With some EQ tweaking to get rip of some "wump" I always get. Let me get a couple missions of GTA in, and I'll post my tone, and screenshots and whatnot!

at about 1.20 and 2.15 needs to be a little louder
maybe a litlle verb at 3.00 to enhance it a bit

Is it the same Guitar preset on both sides?

 

[Cyanide_Anima]

kill song man! tone is great. great mix, it is a wee bit boomy in headphones though. \m/

 

[Element77]

Yea, I recorded it at different times, and I kept tweaking the tone, so that's why it changes. I'll rerecord it eventually. And yes. it is the same preset on both sides. And I really have to get some headphones cause I've noticed, what I find normal, more then one person describes as "boomy".

Dang man! :43 sounds brutal!!!!!

How do you get your kick to sound so good?

 

[Element77]

D20,
In this forum I posted my DFHS settings, routings, and EQ, and whatnot. I tweak them everynow and then. But you can get the jist of what I do. Basically I bus the kick to two separate tracks, then use one for the "clickiness" then the other one for the "thump" with a little RBass Waves plugin. Do a search for "DFHS" And you should be able to find my stuff! And thanks for the compliments.

Could you write something about guitar and eq, more details? How you achieve that great tone?

 

[Element77]

Sure! No probalo. I think on it's own you might be slightly dissapointed, but when I get home i'll type some stuff up, and do some screen shots!
