recording

- Brand new Kiesel 7-string multiscale - Brand new strings - Lundgren M7 pickups - Tried multiple interfaces (MOTU M2 and Apogee Jam Plus) and cables with the same results - Ensured gain is at proper levels and tone knob is at max Example: Any advice would be appreciated!

Extremely curious to know if anyone has dabbled in the Mick Gordon DOOM style genre, and if they know of a good amp sim that isn't too grindy/fuzzy/hissy. I've tried dropping the gain on my amp sim (Archetype Petrucci), I've tried different IRs and speaker/mic positions. I just can't seem to get...

I recently started exploring the Lasse Lammert presets for Axe FX and noticed his tones are incredibly dry and thick. Generally I have been dialing in and playing with tones that felt way more wet and spongy in comparison, with way more air and sustain. I am having trouble playing convincingly...

Hi! I just got my first electric guitar and immediately tried recording on my computer. The recording sounded muffled but the playback is really clean and good. I only have an Amp Simulator on my rack effect and nothing more. I'm recording directly onto my Audio Interface and not using any...

Hey everyone, I've been having some odd issues as of late with Neural DSP. The Standalone apps work just fine. However, for about a week or so now, the Neural plugins (Nolly and Gojira) won't produce sound in my DAW (Reaper). My other plugins work fine. I can see that I am producing a signal...

I'm pretty new to recording (I've done a fair amount of home recording but have never worked with a professional) and was wondering what process others use to track guitar. My main goal is to pick up speed through the tracking and editing process. My current approach is to record riff by riff...

Hello, anyone of you here have any experience recording guitar at the studio with the guitar’s TRUSS ROD cover open? Or closed? I have experienced it myself that when i open the truss rod cover it sound more clear and when it closes it sounds damp. Im going to order a custom guitar soon and...

Hi there! I'm looking for a particular tone you can hear in the intro rhythm section of this YT video below: Its close to the original which is: I happen to know the original tone came from an ESP tele and POD farm.. i dont have a tele but as i saw in the cover version its not really a...

Hey y’all. I been out of the game for a while, long while actually. But in the last year the bug has bitten me hard again and I started jamming around with a few guys and it’s coming together rather nicely. So we’ve booked some studio time to try to capture some of our best ideas. I’ve got a...

As part of recording and putting music out there, I bet a bunch of us are using video editing software to make bedroom music videos and lyric videos, etc. The two I've used are free versions on PC (with some limitations) and I would highly recommend one and avoid the other like the plague. I...

First of all, the link to the album on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/compiler-band/sets/demo-album I would say it is some kind of experimental, alternative, nu, and maybe a very little bit of progressive metal. I wrote these songs over 10 years ago and finally got my depressed ass up...

Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Pair of Neumann KH80DSP Studio Monitors purchased this year. Mint condition. Used very sparingly as I'm sharing workspaces and there's just not enough area in the 'music' space. Modifications (if any): None. Accessories (hardshell case etc)...

Hey Guys, I've been using MT Power Drummer to program drums for my songs. And, I was wondering how you guys mix the splash? There doesn't seem to be a specific track for the splash cymbal in the plugin's own mixer. I will show a screen shot below too. So, how do you mix the splash then? I am...

Hey folks I haven't posted here in a long time, but I thought I'd share my band's tribute album to the great early 2000's central California math/prog rock band Ent. They were an amazing band that ultimately had a huge impact on math rock as a genre and had an enormous impact on me as a...

Hi everyone! Thinking of helping the less experienced members of this great community, today I'm going to be teaching how to record your guitar or bass at home, using only your computer and a soundcard, but getting an awesome tone!

Hi everyone! I'm new here and I hope this is the right section for this thread. I was listening to some records from the band Helloween, and I was wondering how can I get the palm muting sound that they have used in some of their songs. A few examples: in this song, from 0.47 to 1.13 in...

Hey guys, I thought some of you might find this interesting or handy! It's basically a walkthrough of my setup when I'm working with tube amps. I tend to usually use my amps with my Fractal Audio LB-2 loadbox and OH IR's rather than using real cabs, so this could offer some insight on getting...

Greetings, I have been a browser of this forum for years and years but today I finally decided to make an account here. With that being said, I am faced with a dilemma, and am simply seeking insight and/or opinions pertaining to it. I have been operating a home studio for almost a decade now...

After some wine and podcasts by a certain band I found myself suddenly inspired to record a 1 minute short... Lol I have no idea how to embed Soundcloud. Enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/fmaugurati/tessefab

I tried searching on the Googles already. Before I make a mistake or do something weird to my projects was looking for help. Up until now been recording everything at 44.1k (not intentionally, just never changed the default setting) I'd been using a Pod Hd500. Now that I have an Axe FX 2 its...
