    Metal mix critique required

    In my monitors the track was a bit bassy for my taste so I reduced some low frequencies. I think I can recover some of them to give more body to the mix. Thanks for the advice.

    Metal mix critique required

    Hello guys. I'm in the process of mixing new songs and I'd like some feedback on this particular track. My man concern would be the snare, but maybe I'm overthinking it because it fits the style. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance...

    Recording bass with compression

    That's an interesting idea. Do you reckon is better to track the clean signal with the compressor or to apply the compressor afterwards?

    Recording bass with compression

OK, here's the rig: BASS --> Compressor --> Bass Attack --> DAW --> Computer I'm using the bass attack as a DI Box, one signal goes crystal clean and the other have some distortion and EQ...

    Help with my guitar rig: pedalboard issue

    Help with my guitar rig: pedalboard issue

    OK, that makes sense: putting all my effects before the AB splitter and then adding extra layers where required. I still think I need to do that routing to clean up the noise. In fact, I did that because I read about the correct use of the Boss Noise Suppressor: the guitar signal must go out...

    Help with my guitar rig: pedalboard issue

    Help with my guitar rig: pedalboard issue

    Well, your approach sounds good in theory. However, as you can see I'm using an OD and a distortion pedal for both channels. How can this work out with a switch pedal. In that case, I would need to purchase another OD and another distortion to have independent distorted signals. Let me know your...

    Help with my guitar rig: pedalboard issue

    Hello guys, I've been using a pedal-board form a time now and although I like the way is set, I have some concerns that the order of the pedals might be hurting my signal. As you will see in the diagram below, I split my signal in order to use two amps instead of one. The issue is that from time...

    Recording guitars for re-amping

    Yes, it has EMG pickups. The Mbox2 has a Line (TRS) input, so according to you that's the way to go, right? Yes, the Jackson has Seymoud Duncan Distortion on neck and bridge. Pretty hot. What would be your approach for this guitar?
