In the sixties, music never had bass as loud as some music nowadays does, so they could easily get away with panning it all the way to one side.

Mostly the first one, but I've included some more I like. Karma To Burn - Thirty Four Melvins - Joan Of Arc Fistula - Destroying The Master's House With The Master's Tools High On Fire - Rumors Of War

I don't know man. All the videos on Youtube I've checked seem to have a kind of boxy buzzing tone on everything but the lowest gain settings. I'd give it a try if any local guitar shop has it but chances are pretty slim.

I'm going to try an EHX East River Drive next week, it's said to be an Tubescreamer clone with somewhat more low end.

Haha, the word overdrive is even in the thread title. :P Anyhow, I like what I've heard from the Rat on Youtube so I might give it a try some day. Thanks for suggesting it :)

I've checked some videos on Youtube. Isn't the Rat pretty high gain? Perhaps with the gain turned down it can work similarly as an overdrive but with fatter tone.

I'll try eBay. What's the difference with new ones?

I've heard of that one, never tried it though. My guitar is at the shop now, they're installing new pick ups (humbuckers aren't Fenders strong point...) and the bridge is being moved backwards to get compensation right with B tuning. Perhaps I can try a Rat when I go pick up the guitar.

I have my guitar tuned down to B and I like to play heavy riffs in a stoner doom style. I currently use a combination of overdrive from my Vox V810 and power amp saturation from my Ampeg GVT15H using an attenuator. I like how I maintain dynamics unlike when using for instance my Big Muff. I...

I don't write lyrics, it's all instrumental. I really got to work on transitions. Often when I write something, it sounds like one sections ends and another starts instead of it being more fluid.

When I (try to) write a song, I tend to put different sections/riffs/schemes together, which sound just like that; different (sometimes unrelated) things put together, instead of sounding like a whole. Any tips for making compositions sound less thrown together? :)

I am looking for software to easily draw a plan of a room. I have a pretty complex room, with an odd shape and lots of columns. I would like to enter dimensions of walls instead of drawing lines by hand and guessing how long to make them. I hope my question is clear :) Freeware software is...

AC/DC black metal haha, here is some black metal: Marduk - panzer division - YouTube Horrible music. AC/DC on the other hand, I love Bon Scott era AC/DC!

Don't you guys have to put your loudspeakers way too far apart when using two monitors?

Thanks for your response. OBI is an European chain indeed but they aren't the Netherlands. We have other chains, probably pretty much the same. The €10 stapler I mentioned is a staple gun, not an office type stapler. You mention treating the corners. I was actually thinking to start with the...

Do you think I should keep looking for a heavier rock wool, is that why you suggest an OBI? I don't live too far from Germany, so it's a possibility.

This is way too complicated for me :p The Rockwool for sale in my local DIY store has a density of 46kg/m3 or 2.9lb/ft3, I guess that's a bit light but I hope it's good enough. Can't find any such information about the glass wool. This side of the world lacks those stores indeed, but I just...

Perhaps I should have started reading this sticky thread https://homerecording.com/bbs/general-discussions/studio-building-acoustic-treatment/small-room-acoustics-365127/. It says "Get what is available". I guess I go with glass wool. Another question, can I glue fabric to the slabs? I don't...

Just moved in with my girlfriend and acoustics here are horrible, it's like I'm in a bathroom all the time. I want to treat the walls with slabs of mineral wool, cover them with thin fabric and mount them in such a way that there is some space between the slabs and the wall. A local DIY store...

Looks like it got melted. I don't like it.
