    I just started messing around with recording a few days ago. Very new, no idea what im doing. I play metal and am trying to record some of my songs.

    Overall i like the sound. It is the kind of sound i am going for. It is missing that "clarity" though. I like the tone but it doesnt sound clear and crisp. Is that something i can EQ better? Or is the tone just bad?

    Frustrated but cant seem to give up. Feels like im obsessed! I tried something completly different now. I used VST guitar sims. Plugged in to the computer completly clean and used the sim effects. I think it sounds better, but what do i know. What do you guys think? Is there any progress in...

    Been doing some reading and almost everyone says go micing vs. direct in. Is that the only way im going to get a decent enough sound? If so, will it work with my amps? I have 2 very low end amps and the distortion im probably still going to have to use my digitech. Will that make any differnce...

    Do i just have a really bad guitar tone or is it something i need to mix correctly? The bass was just through a bass effect through my guitar, so just did it to try it out. Drums need to figure out. THis was just done as a test to see if i can get my guitar down. Heres another test i did. sounds...

    Modes! Tell me if this is right

    I think its very useful to know the modes. Gives you a sense of tonality and know what to expect when to play what.

    Thank you all for helping. I will start messing around this weekend. Its good to know to lower the distortion level while recording and later layer it. It's going to sound off/weird while recording im sure and i think i need to get used to it as it will sound fuller after layering. One...
