    Blackmetal, with vox, from rehealsals.

    Just thought a comment from anyone on how it sounds song-wise..? the recording is from a Zoom h4, so it is what it is, but the extended-rock ending is WIN!:D http://serif.pp.fi/treenei/Nro4.mp3 Also, the Sovtek Mig-30 amp I have, has taken me by surprise! I think it sounds amazing.:o The...

    Anyone know of tubes? Zaerix, Haltron..

    Hi I discussed in the bus to work about my tube amp with an old geezer at my work, he's working in the electronics.. He asked what sort of tubes the amp uses, and I said ECC83/12ax7, a couple of days later the geezer hands me a paperbag full of Zaerix and Haltron 12ax7 tubes in original boxes...

    Oddmetalcollab, drums, leads? anyone?

    HI These things don't usually catch on well, but I'd hate to mess this up with my usual bad drum-programming or bad solos..:rolleyes: Not to mention that I haven't sung a note in my life...:o http://serif.pp.fi/jopro/guits.mp3 ..kinda sounds incoherent without the click... tempo 120bpm. If...

    Suggestions on the guitar tone???

    Hello. Caution. metal, distortion.:eek: I recorded a "test" with a friend in drums and me with a miced tube amp, the drums were miced with 3 mics so they aren't that good. But what do you think of the guitarsound?? Too much lows, too much highs??? I got a feeling there's too much...

    Help me, post your miced amp. :D

    I've done a lot of recordings... Sometimes received a compliment from sound even, DI:D, but this time I'm micing my amp the FIRST time. And frankly, not getting it quite. Not much difference in a miced speaker after all tube amp, than DI:d... More mids, no shrill, less gain perhaps, quite a...

    My tube head reducing gain?..

    Hiall! I find this weird. It's a part of my tone struggles with a Sovtek mig-30 head.:rolleyes: I found that my Koch pedaltone works well as a tube preamp/overdrive before my head. It sounds good, separates well in the mix and I like the feel, no excessive noise or feedback, got the...

    The best way to distort a 30W head?

    I got my Sovtek mig-30 in working order with new power-tubes.:) Tried two sets of Svetlanas, and ended keeping the Sovtek 5881:s. Unbiased, I heard no differences of any kind between the different tubes.:confused: Unfortunately, I don't seem to find a good OD/distorted sound!..:mad: ..the...

    Aaarghh.. Bad Sovtek, curse Ebay...

    So, I bought a Sovtek mig-30, from Ebay.. ..from russia. Yeah, shoulda expected trouble. Well, hooked it up to a cab, set the voltage to 220V, put on power, turned all pots to zero, turned on the standby, and ZZATT!! ..there goes the "valve" fuse... Turned it into a little stronger, put on...

    Gone slightly Hardcore?...black?

    THIS is NOT the way to start a new band. :D ...We were supposed to deliver our first trainingsession last weekend, but I was cought up in a photoshoot with another band. So we were to get a fresh start yesterday... Well.... the drummer had been curing his cold with rhum throughout the past...

    Helps!?.. I'm screwed.

    Arggh!.... Our band threw the worst gig in the history of ANY band ever! ...second time in the row.. ...We played in a nearby village as the closing act, no soundcheck. I, as the bassplayer can't hear the drums since our "lead guitarist/singer", drunk as fuck, turns his amps to 11, and plays...

    Dabbling with orchestrals..-metal.

    ...Just posting this since I haven't posted anything in a while..:o Spent only 6 hours this morning composing and trackin&mixing, so it isn't the final result by far... But it's kinda fun messing around them VST-plugins!:D http://serif.pp.fi/paskaa/Pompousashell.mp3 Oh yeah, panning is...

    Mig-30 loud enough for a band?

    Hiyall! I made a bid on Ebay for a Sovtek Mig-30 head, I actually wasn't paying attention and thought it was a Mig-50, before I had a closer look.:o In anycase, would it be sufficient for rehearsals on a 1 guitar band?.. I'd reckon it a borderline case... In anycase at gigs the guitars are...

    Sell me a MIG-50 amp!!

    I'm willing to buy a Sovtek mig-50 amp. Tube midget would be great! they're getting scarce on Ebay... preferably from Europe because of customs, but considering America too.

    What cab, or speakers?? guitar.

    OK.... This is theoretic, since I'm not in possession of a MIG-50 amp YET, but I am looking, bidding on ebay as I speak. I want one. Now, here is a sound-sample of my current rig: http://serif.pp.fi/paskaa/STE-002%20(master).wav I am pretty content with it(sound).. nice jet-engine kind of...

    Folk music...barely. :) in Finnish.

    As I stated earlier in the Deathmetal-thread. We gathered, some dozen or so, from various parts of Finland, to an island for three days to sauna, drink and play music. Acoustically, which makes it kinda folk-ish. I only played in a couple of tracks since I was recording them tunes. Mostly...

    "It's deathmetal and you know it"

    A couple of more tunes from my band-to-be. We even got a couple of singer-candidates by now... I like to call it rock, but as someone stated earlier:"It's deathmetal and you know it":D http://serif.pp.fi/hatut/Hein%e4/Uusuus.mp3 http://serif.pp.fi/hatut/Hein%e4/Uudempiuus.mp3 Beerdrunken...
