    D Key Test Mix 3

    Here's another one that came together very quickly this weekend based on a quick riff I recorded into my phone with my guitar unplugged on Wednesday evening!

    That's odd - he must have really pissed them off. Anyway - here's a few tones, something I'm working on at the moment.

    PLease can you have a quick listen to this and check it over. Its a different style to what I normally go for and I've mixed it in a different way

    Phryge Magnets - 80s Metallica Style

    OK, here it is with a hint of verb added to the main guitars. Seems to make a big difference to how stuff sits in the mix. Cheers. Haven't messed with the EQ yet.

    Phryge Magnets - 80s Metallica Style

    Afternoon (morning to the yanks) gents, This was a just a riff that I had floating around and it got arranged into a full track a fortnight ago - only just got around to re-tracking the guitars though. The riff in this is a bit tricky so it was a bugger to keep my concentration for the entire...

    Scarlett 2i2 and Shure SM57 very low volume on acoustic on recommended setting.

    Dave & Chuku, Just thinking about this logically - Focusrite make some of the most popular interfaces and the SM57 is the most popular mic in history - if the two of them didn't work together the 2i2 would be the stupidest AI design ever. But they should work together 'cos I have no problem...

    Cabinet Materials and Dimensions

    Was thinking of building a 2x12 based on these dimensions: https://www.andertons.co.uk/p/VICV212-VV/speaker-cabinets/victory-v212-vv-vertical-cabinet-with-celestion-vintage-30s This cab has good reviews, but is very expensive. How much do materials make a difference to the quality of a cab? my...

    OK, here's a bit of a remix, fiddled with a bit of the compression on the clean guitars and re-tracked them. Changed the lead to something that was closer to my original idea and improved the drums slightly.

    No worries, long rants from northerners always make good reading "eh, bhae-gum, whin'ah wuh'a'lad" etc. - anyway, check this remix: Re-tracking the wah, retracking the lead and sorting the drums out throughout.

    Compressor use

    Right, I'm doing some fairly percussive reggae/funk style guitar in one of my tracks and its not something that I do very often so I'm not going to buy a compressor pedal or anything. Is there a way of getting my VST compressors into my signal before it hits the DAW. I have various compressors...

    OK, here's a revised riff which is far closer to what my original vision of it was - much less widdly. I'll need to get rid of it when I get back to my amp - this tone is using fucking GearBox! This riff is also going evolve into a longer, slower, more feedbacky solo - so even more Greg Sagey...

    This just came together very quickly today - which is probably why its short and simple :)

    This one came together fairly quickly today - the kind of guitar solo at end sounds a bit like Greg Sage.

    Cheers, ray - I'll re-record later with the amp cranked. OK, here's the next bit and its something I'm not sure about cos I've not recorded anything like it before. I've added some compression to these parts in the DAW. But I should probably add some compression on the way in and I don't have...

    Here's a quick tone test for the rhythm of a track I hope to get a little more work done on today. This is actually a really low volume clip - I'll hopefully track it at my usual recording volume this afternoon. Bothered to dust off the Ibanez for the double tracking on this - using two...

    Cheers, That was an easy win! Just gotta try and play the fucking thing all the way through without making any mistakes now... twice!

    The New Tone Thread

    Afternoon guys, returned to an older track that was just a riff before to work on a full arrangement/song. 1. I think I'm fairly happy with the tone but any pointers are always welcome. 2. There's two slow "verse" bits - one comes in after the first riff and the other at 1:50. The first is...

    Here it is with a little more bass and a little more gain. I've dialled the gain back on the crunch bit using the vol knob on the guit. I think its an improvement but still not quite what I'm after - its usable though.

    The New Tone Thread

    OK, here's something a bit different - really low gain, possibly a bit too low - first attempt with this amp though.

    New Delay Ideas and Loop Question

    Right, I've basically decided that I'm not happy with my delay and I think its time I worked out how to use an effects loop on an amp! First thing - Can someone recommend a good delay? - I've been looking at the TC delay and looper. As many of you know, I commute with my rig (sometimes staying...
