  • Clean guitars and leads were recorded through an ADA MP1 direct into a line6 HX stomp with a cabinet IR applied.
    Heavy Guitars were triple tracked and recorded through a Mesa Booogie Studio Pre, into a Peavey Classic 60 Power Amp into a Suhr Reactive Load. This was then run into the HX Stomp where a "Metallica ONE" IR was used. This was all recorded into ProTools and mixed with the original Drums and Bass stems.

    YES YES YES and more YES! You can't get more accurate then this. The guitar is way more important to this tone than the other albums IMO. There's something about the chunkiness of that MX250 that gives it THE sound. So hard to replicate but you have achieved it man. Flemming would be proud

    Dude, fantastic cover! This had to have taken loads of time to pull together and record -- as a die hard fan of Metallica, I'm really critical when it comes to covers and you just nailed it. One thing I will say -- the main riff (daa da da daaa DUH DUH DUUH) slides into that E on the 7th fret, kinda like how the main riff of Sandman is played. Other than that -- awesome. I can't get over how perfect this tone is. I'm not sure if I should try to find the same pre, get a Triaxis, or just splurge and get a Boogie JP-2C. Cheers, RubberDuck!

Cause you know, I read all these model names in the description and if I have to figure them in my mind I can't because I don't know how they're physically made and such.

  • @lexingtRick
    @lexingtRick 3 роки тому +1

    Well bravo, that was worth a listen from A to Z. The mix was excellent near the end. The bass kick needs to be louder. The background guitar to set lower. Hope there is no bass guitar. Then, to get that stereo sound, get 2 microphones with different cardioids count, and different speaker. That magic searched for. There is something about the guitar, did a change of distortion from the previous video? Maybe it is just the angled pick. James H. picks flat, no 37degrees. Else, that was impressive. The guitar solo, get a fuzz or something to push that compression, and Kirk uses the wah-wa from the begining to the end of the solo. Just a mix retouch for the guitars harmonized at first, but last is exellent. Good job.
