I finally got Vandalism

indrangelion · 05-14-2012, 08:02 AM

Possibly a new signature model in the works. Here's a couple of build shots from Leda himself

??????Cygnus???????E... : ????????

Bloody_Inferno · 05-14-2012, 09:37 AM

Maple board, what looks like a neck thru, I'm already frothing.

scion26 · 05-14-2012, 05:56 PM

....damn, it looks a lot better with that inlay and maple board - -

EDIT: Wait.....is that bridge hole for tremolo bridge/"tremolo bridge looking fixed bridge"? if so...........NOPE

scion26 · 05-25-2012, 06:24 PM

Just a little something I found on the internet, another Cygnus owner appeared on youtube:

And he is theta, one of the guy who is known for playing Deluhi covers....

....and DAMN!! Those clothes! Dat look! Dat playing! He can be the new Leda....and I completely surrender to him

bouVIP · 06-01-2012, 01:12 AM

Just thought I'd post this after seeing Leda's twitter

UNDIVIDE official site

scion26 · 06-09-2012, 07:06 PM

UNDIVIDE site updated, included band photo, band info and live information, go check it out

And the members are rather a surprise....

Members:
Leda
Kihiro
......Sujk!?

indrangelion · 06-10-2012, 10:24 AM

Yup, very surprised to see Sujk as a member! I'm definitely going to attend one of their shows!

eveningninja · 06-10-2012, 05:31 PM

What up guize. Been a while. Question for anyone who might know:

What does/did Leda's input chain look like for Vandalism stuff? I know he's using his Cygnus w/ L500XL, Marshall 2203 KFK w/ Beast mode on. Did he use another boost pedal on top of his "Beast" mode or did the Beast mode act as the boost itself and so no need for anything else?

I'm sort of just wondering right now how Leda got such a defined clear open sound with his distortion. It's like he has enough gain to have the balls, but all the notes still sound so clear and defined.

He used the KK, red beast mode and full assault knob on with a Proco RAT distortion. However most of the gain is from the Marshall KK, his RAT is for to give his tone more warmth and dirt to it. And he also used his ESP Horizon NT-II for recording to, but he said it sounds very alike to Cygnus so I think not much of a problem, also his MF400B cab I think is a very very essential part of his warm tone

Still, its hard to know what is the exact setting he used for the whole album, sometimes I feel like he didn't use the RAT, sometimes I feel like he used the RAT with very very low gain sound on the KK, and I think he used the Mesa Dual rec. in Revolver Blast, but that is the general setting he used thru out the album

Sadly, Leda said he is going to change amp for UNDIVIDE........so I think he is starting over for this tone making, his tone might be different from Deluhi now

eveningninja · 06-10-2012, 06:14 PM

Haha strange. I feel like he JUST established such a great tone and now is already re-working it? Well I trust that it'll be awesome nonetheless haha. Thanks for the info.

eveningninja · 06-11-2012, 06:26 PM

Also, somewhat off-topic: But I just noticed how similar the intro of Galneryus' album opener for Beyond The End Of Despair ("Arise") is to "The Show Must Go On" by Queen.

eveningninja · 06-28-2012, 04:33 PM

Sorry to triple post (it's been a couple of weeks though so I figure it's alright):

Question about the mixing of Deluhi's tracks. Would you say that Leda has 2 guitar tracks panned 100L and 100R? I'm of the understanding that that is almost always the way guitars are mixed for metal. Would you say based on the sound of Deluhi that Leda also did the same thing? Thanks.

Do you think the Proco RAT is important for his tone? Have you ever used one? Or would you say it makes minimal difference the way he uses it and isn't that big of a deal?

I have a Proco Turbo RAT, it's almost the same as the normal RAT but with more gain and a bit more lower end, with guitar plug in which sound very similar to 2203KK with a MF400B impulse.

From my experience, there's a lot of the main distortion/overdrive characteristic coming out from the marshall, but not rly enough gain to play metal, even if the noise gate is off. But putting in the RAT, there will be more gain without being too bright like those usual marshalls. That is what I mean by more drit and warmth by using the RAT

However....plug ins and real tube amps are completely different things, and they operate in a very different way. Hearing Leda's actual tone, he actually got SHIT LOAD of gain, but in the mix somehow only his mid sounds very standing up, and the characteristic of his mid sounds very clear, solid and gain-less, so maybe that's why people said his tone has the balls, but extremely crunchy and clean

That's just from what I've been hearing and I think what's happening and trying to achieve using shitty plug ins, I actually have no idea what I'm talking about - -

eveningninja · 07-01-2012, 05:43 PM

Nah man I think you know what you're talking about haha. Thanks for the insights.

scion26 · 07-05-2012, 03:19 AM

Leda's amp for Undivide

He is still using his good old 2203kk with MF400B....and the ENGL Fireball and the Krank Rev is so not him

Seems like he is going for pure thrash and thick tone this time, what do u guys think?

indrangelion · 07-06-2012, 12:05 AM

I tried asking Leda himself, but no replies

I was really curious if he actually used the ENGL for the UNDIVIDE album or not. That looks like a Fireball, but I thought he would've gone for the Blackmore or Retrotube model instead, since it suits his taste.

But I'm really keen to hear the Krank being used! As much as I love his Deluhi tone, I would prefer a completely different setting / rig for this new project.

indrangelion · 07-12-2012, 12:38 PM

First sample from UNDIVIDE!

It sounds like Leda going back to the old first half of Deluhi, it's a lot more aggressive and metalcore-ish....I RIKE!!

Bloody_Inferno · 07-12-2012, 07:01 PM

BornToLooze · 07-16-2012, 11:41 PM

I was going to make a thread for this, but figured it would be better to ask in here. Which do ya'll think would get closer to Leda's tone a Pod HD pro or a Eleven Rack?

I haven't tried a POD HD Pro, but I could nail Leda's early DELUHI tone with the Eleven Rack (monitor/headphone out). But I wouldn't recommend using that setting in a live situation as it lacked headroom. Pair it with a decent preamp and you'll be alright though.

indrangelion · 07-18-2012, 03:36 AM

I found the song names are very not Leda-ish, more like names from Arkhelism....maybe just to fit his now agressive approach to the music

Also Fireball....I can see Leda is running out of idea of song names lol

"Hmm, what should this song called....I used an ENGL Fireball to record this song....LET'S CALL IT FIREBALL!"

indrangelion · 07-19-2012, 10:11 AM

Haha exactly! The titles sound like a tone preset

400 Days sounds like it came out of Sujk's head. Sort of a Tool reference me thinks. And the title 13 AM sounds like a bad Motley Crue song

But hey, at least the actual songs will probably sound awesome!
