Seriously.


Why not just mic the source?

Didn't Nolly say the top speakers were always his go-to for micing because speakers parallel to the rear wall get a buildup of low mids and a cancellation of very-slightly-higher mids?

I can’t enjoy any angled can on top of another . Something about it just does not cut it fir me . I never stack my cabs . But hey sometimes werurd shit does work . I used to put the mic on the side and mic the handle . The head was a vht Deliverance . It’s sounded so good . I was like what is going on here lol

I agree . His live Marshall tone on the 1973 live album is just feral . I always wondered why he didn’t do that in studio . It’s brutal

I always mic the angle. Cuts out the honk and to me makes the amp sound more like it sounds in the room. If you’re worried about low end, just put the mic closer.

A recent horrible sounding amp demo got blamed on the angled speaker being mic'd, and that only jerkoff noobest of noob engineers would commit such a horrible atrocity. now when i see someone doing it i LOL

i thought his tone was a bit neutered by then, i always like his early grittier tones more

This is such a guitar forum thing

Ah yes, it's definitely the difference between micing the angled speaker and the non-angled speaker, and not that they all need to practice the fucking guitar more

I didn’t . Not a fan of any page tones except the live album . But I appreciate these tones when I hear them they just dull .like they didn’t know how to get tone yet lol . But fr I do like this tone. But ..,, I have this dvd . I use to watch the fuck out of it . Good shit
