Tone Tester. KsE clips

[LosingReality]

So ive been messing with my recording situation some more.....padding my closet more to kill the hollow sound......still sounds a tad hollow.

What do you think? Not going for the KSE sound at all....just like those riffs.

Btw. Edwards LPC EM81--TS9--ISP--5150(combo head mod)--avatar 4x12 v-30--SM57(almost center)--Profire610--Cubase--SSD3.0(where the F is 3.5?)

Sounds great man. Those are some of my favorite riffs from their new album.

 

[Metaltastic]

Damn man, really freakin' good!

 

[dani]

you done what to an SM57?!

thanks,

 

[Metaltastic]

Oh yeah, and the bass is bitchin' too, what was involved in that?

 

[LosingReality]

Its just a cheap Agile bass DI to the ampeg plugin.

 

[The-Zeronaut]

holy sh*t!!
awesome tone

Ok. I have pressing questions that MUST be answered.

1. You recorded this amp in a CLOSET? What kind of sound dampening material/padding did you use?

2. "Oh i forgot....its a modded SM57....no trans." Oh yeah...like I forgot this VERY important detail. :-D But seriously...how did you remove the transformer from your SM-57? Is there a tutorial somewhere?

3. What drum software was used?

Oh, and it sounds KILLER by the way. Very rich and beefy. With little crunchies thrown in for texture. :-D

 

[Icony]

Shit, Fuck, Holy Jesus och Belsebub! Damn that was awesome...I almost shit my pants!

 

[Black neon bob]

Drums are a bit behind, take that as a compliment because that is how great the guitar sound is.

Yes it's somewhat of a hollow sound, and yes it sounds great having that hollow character, i would not change it one bit.

 

[P-E]

Damn man that sounds fucking awesome. Great guitar sound, I don't like it that much on its own but in the mix it's killer.

The bass makes it massive too. You got the skillz!

 

[kev]

Really excellent guitars. I think you nailed a particularly in flames vibe with that lead part, I dont know that tune, maybe its a KSE song too Here is a question- what modifaction have you had done to the amp? And how hot is it biased?

 

[Nebulous]

Sounds great for a closet recording dude! Well done! The grind in the guitars is bliss!

1: Yep the cab is in my closet.....Its padded with clothes hanging in there, i bought a matterss padd that is on the wall (doesnt do much though) Then i put 2 blankets over the cab right now. I am going to be buying the Ultra Touch insulation soon and padd the whole closet out to try and kill the hollow sound some more.

2. To remove the trans, you take the head off, cut the wires.....boil the body for about 10 min, the glue comes loose, remove the trans and re wire. Its pretty simple.

3. SSD3.0


thanks for all the comments guys, im still not as happy with it as i should be, still sounds hollow to my ears. Hopefully the ultratouch insulation im gonna buy will do the trick.

 

[Metaltastic]

Or maybe just taking it out of the fucking closet would help!
