Anyone know where to start? You know the odd sounding bass that sounds like its being squeezed through a horn or something during the clean scarey picking part. Thanks

I have an Ultra. The thing about these units that alot of guys forget is that the thing is really made to go FOH. yes it is fun to experiment and try all the different types of set ups. me Ive tried about 10 differnt combinations of amps and cabs, Full range speakers, active passive etc...

Hello, Im doing a long distance recording session and need to know if what I am recording is compatible with Pro Tools 8. If I recorded some of my parts at 44.1 khz then converted it to a wav file to email it to the guy with Pro-Tools 8, will that cause any problems or major quality issues...

Hello, any pros and or cons to either one of these. Someone told me that the 50/50 is deeper sounding or will color the preamps sound, and the 2/90 is more of a clean high headroom power that pretty much just reproduces the preamp tone with no extra color. Im not saying that is true, just what...

Good luck. Please post some recordings when you do. Thanks for all the help and advice, much appreciated.

Not sure about the "unique" thing, I dont think we have anything groundbreaking, but I do know we did get some nice real amp tones that will help our mix. The unique process will come once we put em all together and sort out the direct tones and the amp tones I hope and then what combinations...

We had great success doing the re-amping. we brought in a Radial X-amp box. It worked well and gave a clean signal to the amps. WE brought in 4 amps. -Mesa dual Rec 1/2 stack -Mesa mark 5 - Peavey 6505 combo - H&K Tube Addition combo The Mark 5 just didnt cut it for the type of music we...

Anyone know if a Hot Rod 3's effects loop is a serial or paralell loop? I cannot find any online info other than it does in fact have an effects loop. The owners manual PDF I downloaded doesnt specify either. Thanks, Im needy this month :)

We are trying to come up with a unique tone. We feel doing what "most players do" will lump us in with everyone else. Thanks for the comment and you make some very valid points, we will evaluate everything, and if we feel we need to re-play something we will. We have some very good direct...

Now which amp will work the best? Mark V? Recto? Triaxis? DC-5? F-50? Hughes and Kettner? ENGL? We are looking for a FAT, Full metal assault. I guess only time will tell. Maybe even bring in a Fractal Axe FX. Anyone have experience with those? Youtube vids make it look like something any...

Well stated and exactly what we intend to do. Its all about experimentation and finding what sounds the best for our recording. We will be renting a variety of MESA amps, ENGL's, that would cost several thousand dollars each to buy. This way with the re-amping, the performance is done, now we...

Question on "Reamping" my recorded guitar tracks. Will this work. So first I record into protools using whatever plug-in to get the sound I want direct. Now I want to have some fun and re-amp with an actual guitar amp. Lets say IM going with a Mesa Boogie Mark V. If I copy my original...

WITHOUT getting into technical electronic descriptions, can anyone tell me what the pro's and con's would be for these two? Advantages or disadvantages would be? Im looking for practical application type differences and why one makes a difference to one guitarist verses another. Ive had amps...

I have a question that has been on my mind for sometime. Let me know if this type of set up would work. Thanks. - Either a Boss or POD modeler into a.... - PA type power amp. Maybe a QSC or something that would put out 2-300 watts per channel - Into two guitar cabs that can handle the...

Hows that Rocktron Prophecy2 working for you? Enough gain, and tone for metal? Not too digital sounding?

The HZ's should work just fine with the sans amp DI. I played for years live with a Schecter Euro bass with HZ's, active EQ and ONLY a SansAmp. I didnt ever use an amp. It sounded that good through the monitors/PA. So if you are hearing a live sound you like, keep in mind you are probably...

My advice would be to concentrate on the tone you want first. You can get that through small and large amps. ALOT of todays touring pro's I've noticed on stage have a variety of small combos on stage to get different sounds, so dont think you have to have a large 1/2 stack or full stack to get...

What kind of Gibson pickups did you put in your guitar? That is interested because it seems to be the craze for metal guys nowadays to use the EMG or Duncan actives which so far to me those are pretty cold sounding. Id like a warmer sound. i was thinking using duncans or one pickup that really...

[I]Sounds like you tend to see eye to eye with me on string tension, in that I've always felt that most "standard" sets are too light. GHS Boomers' 9-59 set is about the best-balanced stock one I've found, but I'd recommend just buying a six-string set you like and then ordering an extra 7th. If...

If so... What amps are you finding work good for you? Also, what gauge strings are you finding works best for you. I am tuning a 1/2 step down, then on some songs am drop tuned on the 7th sting. I am having some issues with the strings being a little too loose. i cant find a gauge that...
