In regards to bass, drums and vocals, I feel like I found my footing, nothing like some of you guys have here, but good enough for me not to cringe. Thats the case until it comes to heavier guitars. I really dont know what I'm doing wrong, I tried playing tighter, mixing amps to thicken, quad tracking, more mids, TSS in front, compressing the low end so it doesn't bloat etc..
All of which have helped, but they don't seem to get getting me past this thin and scratchy sound that I don't hear here in other posts. I've tried EQing it out, but its more a behaviour of the tone than an actual general spike, so when I EQ it out the tone loses presence. Which leads me to think It maybe the guitar/pickups, which are...
Yamaha Pacifica/Seymour Duncan 59
Not typical metal stuff I know, but is that the cause of this sound?
Revalver III, quad track with post EQ
Revalver III, quad track without post EQ
(The guitars are very loud in the (almost non-existant) mix so they can be heard clearly, thats all)
Now I'm pretty sure its not my Toneport UX2 since I've heard much better things here using that.
Nothing I do seems to be helping.
Any help would be great.
