Focusing solely on the guitar sound, it has no low-end punch. Seems like if you took the low-pass from 500hz down to say 80hz you'd be closer to something more palatable. That's the most treble I've ever heard from a clip. What are you monitoring your mix thru?
ok. thanks for the opinion, that is what I thought about the treble. I think I boosted it too much. But actually the lp is at 80hz. don't know why I am not getting the low rumble. i used jackson 6 string neck though body 12 gauge strings emg 85 18v. tuned to B reamped through TS9 -> mesa recto recording pre-> mesa 2:100 -> mesa recto cab-> sm57-> digimax d8 firestudio lightpipe -> macbook pro logic.
Sounds like you got all the hardware right but there must be a setting or two in your DAW that have it all skewed. When you're mixing what are you listen back through? Headphones? Radio Shack Speakers? Genelecs? I don't know much about recording other than what I pick up in this forum but I can definitely tell when something sounds way off. I'm surprised no one else has chimed in...
I have some not so good Roland Monitors. They seem to have a lot of highs, so I think I over compensated. But I also listened back through my akg headphones and again through my laptop speakers then again in my home theater system... But it could have been ear fatigue too. Not sure why the lows aren't coming through though.
