This is just a single random noodling guitar track with my sloppy playing to test some of my new gear. It's a bit overgained and you can hear that my bridge pichup is slightly microphonic. Still interesting though.

I really like it! It sounds very agressive, to say the least.

What are the amp and cabinet?

Well, this is my usual chain which consist of my Burny Les Paul (of course), a Boss SD-1
, a Marshall JCM900 and a 4x12 Harley Benton with V30's.

I'm certainly not claiming that this gear is the best for metal,but here comes the fun part
I recently purshased one of those cheap ass measuring microphone amongst a lot of other mics. I wasn't expecting much from it to be honest.

So what you're listening is a combination of an Audix I5 (not digging this one that much, I still prefer my 57's) and the T-bone MM-1 measuring microphone.

The result is ok, not great, I think, but

what I can tell you is that it is a faithful recreation of what I'm actually hearing while standing in front of the amp in the room.

I'll be buying another one asap. I fucking love this piece of crap mic.

What was the mic position for this mic? Oh, and could you please make a quick mix with some drums and 4 tracks with the t-bone? That would be great

I'm kind of busy right now but I'll see if I can do something within the forthcoming days.
The MM-1 was about 1 meter away from the cab, then time aligned to the i5 later in the daw (not an easy task I must confess).
The ratio is like 55% audix, 45% mm-1.
