Eargasm.

 

[Internity]

thats sound realy good man

I dont like the mix that much but the sound of the guitars is good

 

[guitarguru777]

Well its not really a MIX per se, as the drums and bass are just a single stereo track for a reference

Those Catharsis impulses are fucking incredible. I dont think I am ever going to mic a cab again ....lol Just my 5150 from the direct out right to the interface ... hahahah

 

[guitarguru777]

yup so I decided this is how I am doing my guitars for the rest of my life ...lol

Just amazing how those impulses really clean up all that scratch. I been trying to duplicate this micing technque for 3 days now with no luck

Then again I have been using a 57 and an i5, maybe I need another 57 :shrug:

 

[mstone564]

Doesn't Catharsis have some videos on YouTube of how he mics his cabs and sets up his 5150 (or 6505, I can't remember...)?

 

[guitarguru777]

Oh i know the technique, I am just not getting results like he does. His impulses are incredible.

 

[decoys]

some question on the process of recording the 5150 preamp: did you use a dummyload on the 5150 or a real cab?

 

[guitarguru777]

Real cab, post gain on 4 but no mic on the cab at all.

 

[Inseminator]

great tone
btw, pls, what was the post gain?

 

[decoys]

holy shit, that must have been loud as hell but i know, you have to drive the poweramp hard to get a proper signal, thats why i asked.

 

[Inseminator]

my apologies, I haven't read whole thread,
I take my question back, sorry.

 

[guitarguru777]

Ya i was pumping the shit out of it for no reason honestly ....lol I just love that way that came out though. It was just a random idea ... hey lets use the direct out and an impulse and see what we get ....

Put the impulse on and BOOOM just this massive sound. I will definitely be doing this for a long time to come!

 

[decoys]

sounds truly great man! hope i can give it a try the next time, too.

 

[guitarguru777]

Ya this is the first time I can listen to something and not go ... ya know what that guitar needs bla bla bla .... I fucking love it. Totally crushing!

sorry to post this here

your try of guitarguru setup?

 

[guitarguru777]

Turn the whole thing down and make it so it doesn't clip and its good! Still a bit scratchy on the guitars but not horrible at all. There is definitely some kind of digital distortion, I think the levels of the guitars into or out of the VST's are too hot and its clipping there.

 

[I_Am_The_Fury]

Wow, zero mids eh? That's definitely what I would call a good tone though. I'd like to hear a proper mix with this.

 

[guitarguru777]

Im working on one .... Ya the Zero mids thing through me for a loop too on it. When I had the mids where I usually keep them between 3 and 4 it just sounded flat with no depth what so ever. So I said fuck it let me try this, what they hell right....lol It worked though. Could be the impulses helping it who knows, all I know is I fucking love it !!
