I guess you could say that. We had multiple doubled parts that we did tonight on two songs. We have 10 more songs to go on this album. We had an i5, e609s, SM7, and a Fat Head II on the cab and blended those until we found a good one or two on the head we were using.Do you blend in stereo?
What qualifies as a boutique? That term is thrown around a lot these days.ah, where's the boutiques at??
It's my band, if that's what you mean.and is Myriad related to the band?
Well, you aren't going to find any of the hand built Twist amps. And you aren't going to find a Soldano Hot Rod 50 prototype either. Then there's the Fender Custom Shop '59 Bassman Reissue. So, there's your boutique amps. 4 of them.I've always considered boutique as in the rare and typically hand built amps.
but typically loosely throw it around for calling the more rarely seen amps..
Uh, no.

We would switch heads after that and then pick another good mic combination. We actually found that the i5 with the SM7 was awesome for rhythm tracks while the i5 with the FHII were great for leads. All the amps seen got some use.
No, my live rig is big enough as it is. I see no point in increasing its size when it works just fine for me now.What I meant was, do you blend sounds simultaneously live?
This can be done with a simple "Y" cord from the guitar into two separate heads for MONO (Make sure heads are in phase to eliminate extra noise).
Or for the ultimate blend, go stereo! Plug into a stereo effect box and let 'er rip! If you don't want the effect, simply bypass it. Use it purely for stereo separation. You will not be satisfied with playing live through one head at a time ever again.
Obviously, you want a bigger blended sound for your recordings. Try achieving your ultimate sound live!

Only if you give me some good rep.Shame On You! You nasty tone monger you!
We can still be friends...right?
Nice selection you have there.I use a Rivera and it covers a wide range of tones, but the gear slut in me wont be sated until I see a Splawn sitting next to it.Loads of fun! I love blending amps! Thought you guys might enjoy the army.

You can do a search on this since it's totally opposite of what's going on here. As you can tell from the picture, no amp modeling is done here...How much does amp modelling do for tone? I get some good sounds from my pc alone...
