    33 Second Death/Speed Metal!

    hehe thats pretty sweet. it sounds like youve triggered a synth tamborine to somthing. pretty epic metal. needs some lyrics about riding a dragon.

    Beyer Ribbon Mics

    That Steve Albini Drum sound

    i think albinis like any other engineer. sometimes his stuff sounds ok sometimes it doesnt. thing that helps him is hes got a bad ass room and some bad ass gear. i bet most of us around here would get amazing sounds from the kit if we had a similar setup. for the most part i do think hes a bit...

    Extreme Metal = Electro-Shocks

    agree about the guitars. cymbals also are a bit missing. is that a person holding down the blast the whole time? doesnt seem to deviate.

    old school thrash metal

    yeah i was pretty pleased with the way it came out. funny thing is my rough mixes had things a bit more pronounced and the main guy in the band came to me and said "can we remix it? it sounds too slick". funny as hell. it was alot of fun. the kids in the band are all bad ass but whats most...

    MXL MOGAMI 603s

    i like em alot for the price. some say they sound brittle but i disagree, with good placement the are very good sounding mics as oh. i just posted a somng under "old school thrash metal" in the mp3 section where i used em as oh. alot of the toms actually come from them and not the close mics.

    another song for you guys!

    i like the song but it seems to be lacking in the low end overall. guitars really need some lows, they sound like a hive of bees. kick also can use some fattening up. sound like a clicky death metal kick. snare is really ringy as well, makes the rolls seem a little jumbled. vox have a nice old...

    New song!

    i like the fullness of it. everything is blended fairly well, and comes across pretty warm. the verb on the vox seems a little much. also seems like theres some heavy verb on the drums that makes the crash have some long ass decay. like the kick tone but some of the blasts are a bit jerky. like...

    It's been a while...

    sounds pretty good. everything is real clean and present. i agree that the early section would sound good with a warm acoustic holding down the rhythm. like the vocal doubling and layered guitars towards the end.

    old school thrash metal

    did this the other day in the living room. all live except vox. 2 fullstacks and a ampeg 8x10 can make a whole house shake. pretty fun fast session. think theyre getting it pressed on a 45. http://media.putfile.com/04---Track-4-28

    Opinions/feedback - Metal (Metalcore) Track

    not bad. decent tones to work with. drums have way to much verb makes em get lost once the song gets going. i dont really mind the kick to much, could use a little more click to define it but personally im getting tired of that damn trigger click sound unless the drummer is a real bad ass blast...

    How do live app SDC Shures compare with stuff like MXL 603's

    i do FoH in a club thats got a pile of 81s. i brought a couple and used em as oh instead of my 603s. more detail, less sizzly high (but stil pretty bright mics). liked em better than the 603s but not as much as akg 451s.

    I need effects advice

    seems like youve got the right idea to me. now just practice that a bunch of times and figure out exactly what your lacking in the outboard dept. for 2 track mixdown id say just get a copy of wavelab and a couple convertors since you already seem to have a comp. other than that you could get a...

    Should i get a mixer or a preamp?

    a good preamp is the most important thing to have if your going to pc. a good pre will will help eliminate some of the brittle sounds that plague pc recording. you can get about a zillion differant pres that could do the job be it in a rack or through a mixer. i tell alot of people that if...

    Budget recording amps for metal

    musicman hd130 heads are amazing. sovtek mig 60s are a poor mans marshall but you gotta watch out for lemons. ampeg v4s can be balls out if driven right. think all those heads are around 400. you can score a jcm900 for pretty low, round 500. i got one for 350$, i really cant stand the angry...
