Tracking guitars with MEAT

In the mids. It's a particular proportion of different mid-bands to each other. It would defy easy explanation... hence why we probably just call it 'meat'. Nice bump btw.

Thanks Ermz.
EDIT : did some research on that "meat frequency-range" issue... i've read something along the lines of 400-800hz, so in between low mids (around 400 hz I'd say, gives body/beefiness) and "core mids" (around 800hz I'd say).

It's not up anymore, but here's a sort of recent rough/basic mix I did with those guitars: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/285689/Everything-NewBounce.mp3

One of the things Fredman says is important is LOWERING the gain! One guitar alone might sound undergained but if you quadtrack it, it will sound tighter while still sounding fat. I think many tones of mr Andy Sneap him self wouldn't suffer from a bit lower gain

Guitars sound a little distant and undergained. As said already, it sounds more like a "hard rock" guitar tone than a "metal" guitar tone. I don't think it sounds all that meaty either..... it's fairly smooth, but not really all that thick sounding...
I think you'd like the guitar tone on the album Deflorate by The Black Dahlia Murder that just recently came out and was done by Audio Hammer. It's really thick and heavy, but also really smooth. Not much fizz there. Very "metal" sounding still though...

The clip sounds really good. I wouldn't call it meaty hough. Sounds very rock-ish, and fits the song perfectly.
