solo on the ibby

interesting thing about the outro solo, i dropped my pick going into it, so i just wailed away with my fingertip, came out ok
 
Stellar guitar sounds. Those old Mark IIs really are special. Got a C+, which I'm very happy about:thumbs up:

Can I ask about you microphone setup? How do you get those sounds?


Best regards,

thanks for breaking the ice here.......

yes, the mark II is special, to me anyway, that's why i've held onto it all these years.



microphones?
you mean for the guitars?

well, in my second post, i detailed the recording chain for the guitars.....

there are no microphones.


and the 'sound' is pretty much the amp, driven by a compressor and a Barber Direct Drive together, and the outro solo i played with my fingers, cuz i dropped my pick.
LOL
 
oh yea, well, the guitar signal, after the palmer....
i sent it to a ART DPS, into the tube preamp, set really clean.... and from there, straight to my sound card convertors (Maudio Audiophile 192)

so, i guess you could say the ART preamp would color the tone a bit.
so the majority of the "sounds" are the pure sound of the boogie, in combination with the cabinet filter circuit of the palmer device, and the tonality of the ART preamp.

thanks for listening, and yes...
that most certainly IS a sitar!

and a whole bunch of wierd sh!t
 
Great stuff!

Very live sounding with the delays and the improvisational nature of the track. The mix sounds right on.

The bass reminds of Tony Levin on Peter Gabriel's So album. Whatcha got going with that???

Good song and mix. Enjoyed cranking it!!!

thanks pete!
this track has got a very strict arrangment...
but the idea is exactly like you described, 'live sounding', kinda on the edge with the improv guitar stuff...
it was a fun tune to track.
