looks like next up is black winter and its mag variants. I probably won't go quite as in depth with this demo (one or two clean riffs and then some high gain stuff). I'll do the standard black winter first, then move down to alnico 9, alnico 8 (aka the nuclear winter), alnico 5 (aka skadi).

Curious to see the alnico 9 as i love that magnet for some time. But I would guess, too bright/tight in the BW, but let´s see what results you get :)

The skadi will probably rule ass
It's a lot cleaner sounding than the standard black winter. It's my favorite version of the black winter tbh. the 8 and 9 will be pretty similar to the standard ceramic unless i remove the flanker magnets.

@KnightBrolaire do you have any isolated clips of the Dragonfire Screamers? IIRC you had them installed at some point, but searching I can’t find anything, so maybe I’m mistaken. A lot of the demos online are ass quality, so I can’t tell if it’s the nature of the pickups or the person’s bad setup/recording.

nope, I had those before I started doing decent isolated clips.

Damn, alright. Am I right in thinking they have kind of a cocked wah thing going on?
I don't recall it ever being "cocked wah" but it's definitely more mid present than some of the other options I've tried.

Black winter bridge is here. I also have the a4, a5,a8 and a9 mags ready to go. I also bought a neodymium bar magnet just for shits and giggles. The magnet swap shootout shit will probably be a separate thread. I'll record my standard riffs and DIs with the stock black winter first, then I'll move onto the mag swapping.




you get the idea

some clips showcasing the parallel and split sounds of the BW through my 100CL (all clips start series, then go parallel then south coil, then north):

Used the mushok for messing around with ML Labs' new IIC+ plugin:




I'll have the F30 vid and some other stuff finished up this weekend.

Man, I don’t know if it’s just my bias for the BW but all of these clips sound fantastic. Were you using built in IRs from the plug-in?

thanks. I used ownhammer's dzl 4x12 k100 and v30 IRs. I can slap some stock IR clips up later.

Shit, I forgot how sick Diezel’s cabs can sound. It’s been forever since I’ve played out of one or used any IRs. I may have to snag that OwnHammer pack. Thanks!

I’ll peep the stock IR clips when I’ve got my headphones handy.

I have yet to hear someone post a clip using that new IIC+ plugin where it doesn’t sound fucking great. I might have to whip out the missus laptop and an interface again to give it a shot.

Black winter demo is up:


Onto the magnet shootout. I'll have a separate thread for that.
