Greetings

I have a D1600 mk2 wich I recently bought. I am into metal only and I wonder, does anyone have any good advices. I have a good sound for the guitars but NOT perfect. Any good tips and tricks would be nice.

Question number 2:

I have used drumkit from hell via cubase before to create some great sounding drums. Now my computer is dead but I still need the drums. what to do? Any ideas on other good drum solutions? Is there somplace or someone that can mix down a MIDI file to the DFH drums? Any help with getting my drums in tact will be rewarded. Thanks

Hope to write and read alot on this forum

Right now I'm recording a metal band, and I record the guitars miced from the MArshall, but DI at the same time. During the mix, I send the DI sound through my POD and it works like a charm: you get an extra richness through the POD, but with the MICED amp sound mixed with it, you avoid the 'out of the box digital' sound.
 
I run a POD Pro into a Mesa 50 Caliber head set totally clean, eq flat, into a Marshall 1960A Cab. Sounds amazing. You actually get the tone of the preamp tubes and the power tubes once you start turing it up. I think blending two sounds would be cool as well. BTW, I use a Korg D16 for some of my demo stuff. You should check out the D1600 forum for your Korg related questions:

Brett, do you run the guitar signal through a splitter to do this?
 
First I send both guitars to the POD and have them mono. I fiddle with the knobs until I get the sound that suits best between the other guitars. Once I'm sure, I bounce both left and right seperately so I can ban both tracks.

If you EQ the POD and the miced guitar sounds good, you can get a killer tone!
