The drums are Drumkit From Hell Superior
Guitars are EBMM JP7 thru podxt
Bass is a Schecter 5 string thru podxt

enjoy!

Blexican · 10-25-2006, 10:42 PM

Umm...Jesus that's amazing.

I've always been impressed with your skills at arranging these little riffs you put up on your page, and this is another awesome clip. I'd kill for your recording setup too.

Nik · 10-25-2006, 10:44 PM

Seriously dude, when are you gonna release a CD with all this stuff?

I love it--it's like DT mixed with all my favorite things about Meshuggah. The classicy-sounding intro was great too, and the strings.... You are, hands-down, my favorite rhythm guitarist

Were the guitars also recorded through the PodXT?

Also, I hate to hijack this thread, but did you record the bass with a guitar PodXT? And if so, could you share that patch? I've been trying to record my bassist through my Pod, but I haven't been able to get a good tone....

bulb · 10-26-2006, 12:09 AM

aww thanks man thats quite a compliment haha!

the guitars and bass were both recorded with a guitar podxt and i can try and upload the patch when im on my recording computer again!

DSS3 · 10-26-2006, 12:16 AM

Damn... amazing as usual!

Any chance on patches for the clean-ish stuff? That's my favorite part of it!

I assume you based the drums off Thordendal's settings?

bulb · 10-26-2006, 12:22 AM

thanks man, yeah i can upload the cleans too when i get back on my recording comp, the drums are based off his settings but massively tweaked cuz i only partially agree with his mixing style hahahah!

The Dark Wolf · 10-26-2006, 12:56 AM

Typical, you ....er.

It sounds bad-ass!

Nice work, Bulb. Your shit is really great. Getting some fans up on here.

technomancer · 10-26-2006, 01:03 AM

Sweet stuff. I usually like my guitar tones a bit less digital, but it really works on this track

Ryan · 10-26-2006, 03:03 AM

That was frickin great M33sh! Your mixing ear is incredible. Do you have a DS7 in that JP7? While youre at it, PM me all your recording secrets plzkthxbye!

bulb · 10-26-2006, 03:07 AM

aww fanks Ry4n, nah stock jp7 pups, basically the only time i thought the stock pups in a guitar totally kicked my ass, i love em!
Recording secrets? Dude if you hit ctrl+alt+del like 38 times in a row in the middle of recording, something magical happens!!1

Ryan · 10-26-2006, 03:45 AM

lol im so gonna sneak into your crib and switch out your xt with mine while you cradle it in your snoozeness.

Mr. S · 10-26-2006, 04:02 AM

wow man, awesome stuff again this song is pretty ....ing good man cant wait to hear the whole 25 min incarnation

JoryGriffin · 10-26-2006, 06:15 AM

That is an amazingly totally stunning sound if you dont mind me saying so

With that Meshuggah *Twang* too... love it.

Just makes me want a PodXT even more

keithb · 10-26-2006, 09:33 AM

Damn dude.....

I have to ask, how long does it take you to go from a blank slate to something like that? I mean, are you mixing and EQing for days, or have your god-like powers increased to the point where you just think of a riff in your sleep and it appears on soundclick when you wake up?

Awesome man, that would be much, much appreciated

kmanick · 10-26-2006, 10:32 AM

Damn that sounded pretty kick ass!

I suck at recording with a computer.
I envie you guys that have got it figured out.

Chris · 10-26-2006, 10:36 AM

Mother of god, how the .... do you get that tone out of a PodXT? I'm about to say .... the JM150 and just get one if you can share that patch.

Chris Feener · 10-26-2006, 10:37 AM

My balls groove better than this. Horrible tone, and who programmed those excuse for drums? Sounds like an 80's glam tune with a little too much heroin involved.

I mean, where's the bag pipe solo? Come on..

....er..

P.S: Probebly your best one yet.

Chris · 10-26-2006, 10:43 AM

Feener and bulb need to start a band together. They can call it "Better than you".

nitelightboy · 10-26-2006, 10:47 AM

Damn that is TIGHT!!! That's the tone I've been hunting on my XT Live....you suck for finding it

Awsome recording though

bulb · 10-26-2006, 11:54 AM

haha wow! thanks a lot guys!

I will form a band with feener when he stops grabbing my ass everytime i look away (and when i acquire some god-like chops too).

As for the recording process, these days it has to happen pretty damn quickly because i dont really have the time. I usually spend a couple hours writing/recording the riffs (had the idea for the first riff in my head and when i recorded it the rest just sorta came out), then the next day i spent just as much time arranging it and mixing it, and then some final touches last night before posting. I really just wish i had more time so i could make more riffs haha!

Oh and i will try and upload the patch tonite, if i dont have time then i will definitely do it when i get back from boston on monday!

Jason · 10-26-2006, 11:59 AM

I think what ppl need to realise 99% of his killer tone comes from post editing the tone not the pod xt per se. Right misha?

well not 99 percent haha, but defiitely post processing and just the way the mix itself sounds plays a big part in making the patch fit in and sound good!
