    Metal guitar recording methods used by majority are far from optimal?

    Take a blaring 4x12 cab, close mic with a 57. Now move that set up to different rooms in your house- there is a big difference. Using a LDC and backing it off accentuates the environment. This could be good for airy solos, but for metal rhythm yuck. But I'm open to hearing the evidence

    Metal guitar recording methods used by majority are far from optimal?

    I like how you lay it all out, but in practice, this sound is going to suck for metal. The LDC backed off is going to pick up more of your room, which I assume is not an ideal sonic environment. Plenty of other reasons why this will suck for this material, but go ahead and try it out and let us...

    Ola needs your help!

    The early days were awesome. But somewhere along the line he became a clown and I lost interest, though his channel also took off during that time. Dude has almost 1 million subs, so I'm sure he'll be fine. He said himself that he makes less videos, so he has less views.

    Kruse amps opinions?

    I think Kruse worked for Diezel for a short time, so it makes sense that he seemed to deliver on those amps. The DeKomp/supersonic dial sounded ice pick horrible if cranked up past noon, which I think is some of the reason there are so many bad clips- a lot of players lost their high end hearing...

    Kruse amps opinions?

    I had a Kruse modded DMoll and a Kruse modded 5150 50w about 10 years ago? Mods on DMoll included deKomp, power watt selctor, and tweaks to the clean. The dekomp was very good if used sparingly, a nice improvement that could also be dialed out if needed. The power scale watt thing was probably...

    Pro YouTubers are surprisingly missing in action on the Mark IIC+ Reissue...

    I like our youtubers showing the new stuff. I also like to hate on the youtubers and then hate on the amps before I buy on the used market. Damn you Gibson!
