I have a metal band I'm mixing that did a single track of guitar... wasn't sounding very full. Luckily, they tracked a DI of the guitar. Ran the DI through an amp simulator (or could have reamped), delayed it 10ms and panned it right while the original track was panned left. Doesn't totally make...

Great stuff... thanks!

Will do... thanks a lot!

Excellent! You couldn't have solved my problem any better. Thank you! So you put the omni sdc capsule side flush against the wall, and it will get a similar effect to a boundary microphone? Are boundary mics basically omnis with their backs to the wall?

I think you may get a lot out of this guy's Youtube channel... lots of how-tos for learning standard micing techniques, as well as videos of some cool alternative ideas you might be interested in trying! Also pretty entertaining as well as informative. Here's a few specific videos to check out...

Our band has a new rehearsal space in the basement of a house, and we're currently building a studio in it. I had miced our drummer up, and while he was playing I walked up the stairwell to get a drink of water and stopped in my tracks... "WHOA! That sounds cool!" I went and grabbed a Zoom Q3...

Son. Of. A. BITCH!!! How the hell did I not know that?!? Thanks Chili for filling my brain with knowledge! I'm motivated to go post that on "Today I learned" on Reddit.

It's the starboard side. Don't forget to supply 47v nuclear power to the unobtainium filament using the analog-to-quantum converters using the anti-matter bus.

I've been digging the hell out of the pair of Little Blondies I ordered a few months ago... $120 each, $240 for a pair. I Wish I'd ordered 4 of them. Little Blondie Mics

What would you describe as "crunchy" and what would you describe as "smooth"? Are there maybe some recordings that come to mind that could illustrate this? I'll go off the assumption that my definition of "smooth" metal is the same as yours. What makes a distorted heavy metal guitar tone harsh...

Yes, you should be able to get killer sounds from that thing. What's do you dislike about the head's inbuilt distorted sound? What does it lack, and what do you hope to add by using the GT6?

Did you hear that on Harmony Central? We posted it up there recently.... wishtheend - Dude, glad you like! Currently I'm trying to get my hands on an ENGL Special Edition, which I've now officially dubbed my dream amp. Salt Lake City? You guys have heard of us in Salt Lake City? Kickass...

Whoa... this is an old thread! Nice, Sonixx... I'm digging the Killswitch Engage. I especially like the center guitar doing the lead lick. Great tone. I have something to contribute.... check out this tone I got recently.... it's a monster...

Thanks for the compliments! I could actually make you some soundclips and send them to you if you want some more examples, I'm working on a mix right now that I'm adding in triggered samples to thicken. I also wanted to add that I actually did use Drumagog for those samples. I've always just...

Well, I've gone the trigger route, and gotten some good sounds doing so. Despite the purists who are against it, I haven't found any other way to get certain sounds that I'd always been searching for (mainly the modern rock drum sounds you hear on the radio). I like to blend mic'ed drums w/ a...
