    ring mod is underrated as hell, i got into using it from the band Car Bomb, where Greg Kubacki uses it for those low chunky riffs. sounds great around like 30-40 hz on a guitar in drop A or lower

    Have you tried ring mod side chain with that plug-in? I also recently discovered that plug-in and have been using it to push the bass guitar out of the way for the kick drum. Unlike a compressor with attack and release, the kick pushed the bass out of the way at the exact speed it comes and goes.

    what about stuff Mirar does? i've read somewhere that they achieve their sound with an expression pedal but im not sure

    • @BlakeLW
      @BlakeLW  2 місяці тому

      They likely use the Whammy DT pedal.
      Basically when they do the screechy high sounds, it’s just pitched up from the original tuning and the ringmod helps sell that sound!

    Great bits of advice there! Do you do any other processing on the harmonics or do you just use ring mod?

    • @BlakeLW
      @BlakeLW  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you🤙🏻
      For the harmonics, the only additional processing was ringmod. I typically don’t do anything different for harmonics unless I want them to ring out longer. In that case I would automate the gate to allow that to happen

    • @BlakeLW
      @BlakeLW  Місяць тому

      There's a few workarounds. The easiest being run all audio from guitars through a DAW via a laptop so all the automation is there. With how tracks are used almost always these days, it isn't outside the realm of possibility
