  • Using Bias Amp 2 and Bias FX 2, I show how to accurately get the guitar sound from Wolf Hoffmann and Herman Frank (Accept) on "Balls to the Wall".
    IMPORTANT 2023 UPDATE - Some users have reported they can't find my presets when searching Bias FX 2. This seems to be a glitch in their search system. To solve the issue, type in the search field "DMO -" (yes, just DMO followed by a space and hyphen) and choose "Sort by Popularity" in the drop-down beside the search field. You should see all of my presets.
    Please note many users have taken my presets and created their own versions with similar names. To make sure you are downloading my original presets, my user name in Bias FX 2 is "Dan Oliv". Also, my original presets have a lot more downloads than the non-original versions.

    Here's the gear I'm using:
    . Bias Amp 2 and Bias FX 2 guitar modeling software - metal distortion and Mesa Boogie Mark IIc+ amp simulation with tone matching feature
    . Line 6 UX-1 audio interface
    . M-Audio monitors
    . Reaper Digital Audio Workstation
    . iMac with Sierra OS
    . Gibson Tribal Explorer guitar - Gibson Pickups (500T & 496R) & Kahler 2215 bridge
    My guitar medley features riffs from these songs: title track, "Losing More Than You've Ever Had" and "Fight It Back".

    I haven't played guitar for over 6 years due to a hand injury, but my hand is better now but I has always been hesitant to start playing again, since I have some restrictions due to the injury. But I just had to check this out. So I bought BiasFX2 and BiasAmp2 plugins and I have been playing guitar for the last three hours! I can't believe that I've got that Accept guitar sound, so much inspiration nd all the Accept songs come flooding back from memory! Thank you so much for making it possible!

      I can tell you this is the guitar tone I'm most proud of. When I was a teenager learning to play guitar, this was my dream guitar tone. Never in my dreams I'd imagine many years later technology would allow me to get this tone. Wolf Hoffmann and Herman Frank were inspired on this album.

      @@dmometalguitar thank for all the videos; I've been trying BIAS FX2 & AMP 2 demos today and I've noticed there's only your DMO Far Beyond Driven amp match to download; are you aware of that? I'm ok with it, I'm asking just in case. Your tones have been the final push to make me enjoy again playing pantera, metallica, ... after >10 years demotivated.

      @@Zappabain Thanks man. Glad you're enjoying your guitars again. You'll only see the Far Beyond Driven amp because it was part of my tutorial. All other amps are bundled with my Bias FX presets, so for simplicity, I'm just using Bias FX for everything.

    You by chance have a atomic amplifire 12 unit or a blackstar id core head? I love this time but don't have bias.thinking about buying the bias distortion pedal or the bias head to get this tone.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks

    Pretty damn good. Sounds a little too harsh compared to the album, but obviously once you are talking total mix and master that is a different matter.

    How come you use the same amp for every tone match you do? :)

    • @dmometalguitar
      @dmometalguitar  5 років тому +1

      Think of the amplifier more as a "wrapper". What goes behind the scenes is what makes the primary difference. The guitar itself also makes a big impact. My Gibson has been giving me the best results in the whole tone matching process.

    Hate to break it too you... but you're playing most of these riffs wrong. I'm cringing hearing you trying to play Losing More Than You've Ever Had, and Fight It Back.
    Wolf (and Hermann Frank) used a Bill Lawrence L-500 pickup (not the 500XL like Dime used) in his 1979 Gibson Flying V, and ran into a Rangemaster Treble Booster into the 'house' Marshalls at Dieter Dirks studio in Cologne, Germany.
    Wolf switched to the EMG 81 pickup for Metal Heart after hearing Vinnie Vincent rave about them in 1984.
    Nice effort tho...
