What Do you Think?

[shredder10]

I'm tracking this lite cover with a friend, it's the first time i tune my gt on G#

Also, i tested here the Slate FG-X mastering plug, it's real cool and smooth imho. It blew aways waves L's in my case.

bad ass guitar tone, what did you use?

Yeah, really liking that guitar tone. Need details!!!

 

[shredder10]

!! I'm Glad you liked!

Well i think the trick was to cuad track, makes everything massive.

Heres what i did on gts:
Gt > OD808 > PODxt [treadplate head/cab, condenser mic, HP/LP, Heavy MultiComp @80 to 300Hz, cut @400, boost @800, boost @5600, Vintage Warmer +4 gain]

Squashed the shit out off my bass, basically cause it SUCKS hahaha, and left it far away on the mix

I'll post the DI's if you want to try stuff on your tone

Files: intro guits, cuad DI's, bass Di, drum superior midi 115bpm.

How do you get that real choppy sound? Hella load of editing?

just curious, but why would you boost the harmonic of a frequency you cut? this is in reference to the 400 and 800 equalization of course.

I got this feeling of fat disco being played in the beginning! That fat punchy kick makes me want to dance all night long! No but dude everything is sounding solid. I must say the quality has really risen lately in the Rate my mix/tone threads. I used to keep myself out of here but now I really enjoy what's being put up in here.

=D! Thanks dude!

I only chopped out those little 'tails' you get from your hands contact
with the strings, i've always been afraid to chop them directly with
the NS 2 while recording. Would that be safe?

Yeah, i noticed that while mixing indeed, i was like ?

But, when i boosted @400, tone was getting way too muddy for my taste
and 800 worked for me.

this is nice :3 i think that the key here is to be careful with amp gain.
i'd love a bit more clearer guitar tone on your mix.

Your snare is cool too, but it sounds like way too squashed :O

Did you play 4 guitar tracks or only play 2 and reamped the 3rd and 4th tracks?

Here's my 10 min take!

Snare is a blend of my own samples and like 10% slate.


Sweet fucking tune dude!

shredder10, do you used a schecter tempest, Ibanez rg320 and Ltd B104 as previous time?
guitars was in drop A#-tuning?
bass DI need more meat, but in other - great job!
