Thanks dude :rock:
2012 VH4 Lead Channel is fantastic. Last song I did was 6505 for leads/VH4 for rhythm. They wanted something a little more aggressive for rhythms, so 6505 it was. This amp is an all around winner, I promise ;)
I use a boost on everything aside from cleans and the occasional crunch tone. Thanks for your kind words guys. Kyle is a great player and songwriter, so he made my job easy \m/
Thanks Scotty boy. The amp is a nice addition to the collection for sure. :thumbsup:
I happen to like the Mesa V30s better than the other variants RECORDED. I think the Diezel cabinet sounds better in the room, and feels better to play through, but it just doesn't do it under a mic like the...
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm not a huge picture person, but I'd be glad to share details:
Reamp v2->Maxon OD820 Pro->ISP G-String Decimator->VH4->Mesa Recto Cab->SM57->API Preamp
It's a pretty standard setup, but I get really particular with mic placement and all that jazz. :lol: :LOL:
Hey everyone!
This is a pre-production clip of my buddy Kyle Odell's band Vanisher: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1569935/VH4.mp3
I reamped with my VH4. You are hearing COMPLETELY RAW guitar tones. Straight from the mic into the DAW with no processing whatsoever. I love this amp. Peter has done a...
Amazing tones can be had with a cheap mic preamp/converter such as an MBOX. I've heard great tones made with a Presonus Firebox. mjtripper is dead on. Play with mic placement, and be aware of the relativity of your tone to the things around it.
So far I've really enjoyed the following speaker blends:
Freyette P50E/Celestion V30
Celestion V30/Celestion T75
Celestion V30/Celestion K100
What speaker blends does everyone else around here do in their cabinets?
Cheers,
Greg
Why the sad face on the quote? I thought you got a kick out of that one.
I play Baritone 6 strings and regular 6 strings, so I have nothing against lower tunings ;)
Rear-loaded Diezel Cab is the answer IMO. Also, I apologize, because I own the cab that you missed out on that was at Brad's :lol: :LOL:
The Diezel VH4 cooperates with Greenbacks as well, surprisingly, despite being such a chunk-machine.
A Small Block is supposed to be modeled after a Scumback M25 last I heard, so yes, some sort of a Greenback. I don't like ANYTHING Eminence makes, so I would say a Celestion variant, especially something without those Pre-Rola mids should do the job.
