Hey guys, I'm not starting no sh?t here but Scott listened to "hazed" at NWR and posted back that I maybe needed to add a second rythum guitar track and pan one hard right the other hard left. I just went back to a post on 08/03/02. Kramer and a couple of you also said the same thing. At the time I was confused because I thought I had 2 guitar tracks.

Is this my problem? I have a toneworks Korg AX1000G foot pedal that I plugged left(mono) into track 1 and right into track 2. I panned track 1 left and track 2 right. But the problem is there still the same track?????? Do you guys do two rythum parts to get that stereo feel? I hope I explained this right....
 
Flash, I think they meant that you need to actually play the part twice, on two different tracks...add a slight delay to one of the tracks, then pan them to opposite sides. Try to play the second one as close as possible to the first. They'll be just different enough to fatten things up.

Mkg, did my post make sence though? Is it because I recorded it the way I did? I think I get the picture about adding another rythum guitar track. But do ya do that all the time? Is that the way they do it in a real studio?
 
I've done it sort of the way you described in the past, and it's just not as fat. You really need two separate tracks, two different performances of the same part...that's what makes it fat.
 
O.K. thanks. I'm gonna do it....... I can do it....... 1 track history.... 1 new track on the way....... Take a toke, I'll be back....... Should have I posted this some where else? I thought Kramer and Theron and Sami would have jumped in by now. A couple other also, they all mentioned the guitar part. And I'm still confused.
Oh well, I'll be back......

I just replied to you in another thread about this.I already told you this shit in your original post!:D;)

You are finally on your way if you are about to record ANOTHER PERFORMANCE of the guitar track:D
 
The only way you can get the same performance in stereo is if you have something like a J station or Pod that has real stereo imaging.

Something I recently found,if you record two takes and pan them stereo,try panning them off from each other a little,ie;9o'clock and7o'clock instead of exactly opposite.
Seems like it makes it sound bigger.

Best to you,
Pete

Absolutely....one thing is that if you hard-pan them.....you get a "hole" in the middle. Doing it like you said fills that hole in and also when the two parts overlap a bit you get some phase-cancellations that affect how it sounds.
 
Thanks for advice guys. I never did get to record it last night. I got too caught up on the board. Sometimes it's just to hard to leave this place. :D
