    What is your tone blending technique when recording?

    Ive been messing around with blending two tones (amps) together and I was wondering what are the best methods to do this? (I know, personal preference/I have to experiment/whatever sounds best to me, blah blah). But how do YOU blend multiple tones together? Hard pan one tone/track left and hard...

    Jeff Loomis leaves Arch Enemy and asked my friend to be in the band!!

    I just called Joey to confirm if this is true and it is! He's an amazing person and guitarist who's worshipped AE husband whole life; great friends with the band. He took lessons from Chris as a kid. Last year we were smoking weed in my car and talked about "shit dude can you imagine if Jeff...

    So I sold an LTD Arrow on Ebay in mint condition. (No case). I wrapped it in multiple layers of bubble wrap. Forst I wrapped small bubble wrap wrapped around once, then I wrapped it again with larger bubble wrap, folding over the corners of the points for extra cushion. Multiple layers of...

    I've never played one myself but if this was the only clip I had to go by, there's no way in hell I'd ever touch one. Please tell me its the player and not the gear!!

    Jake E. Lee A Fine Pink Mist. Thoughts?

    I'm younger than most here but I remember back in like 98, 2000 just discovering ozzy and worshipping the trio of guitar gods. Then came Napster, and that's where I first heard songs from Jake's album. It was underwhelming compared to the two Ozz albums, but revisiting it much later, there's...

    Erik Rutan in the studio

    I do think that kind of riffing becomes a muddy, indistinguishable mess when using 7 strings, and that much gain. His riffing is awesome but I think it could sound so much clearer. He's got a nice collection of cabs though that's for sure also he's using 25 watt speakers.

    NBD: Sterling Stingray 5 by Music Man

    I bought this bass yesterday at Sam Ash for $399 plus tax. I walk it to my car and before I get it there appears to be some buckle or key markings on the back contour lap-resting area. I walk back into the store and they offered to order in a new one and I'd have to wait, or they'd take 50 bucks...

    Blending two amps together recorded seperatley

    I have a novice question... I'm recording my metal material. I know that generally for rythymn you would record two tracks and pan left and right. But what if you wanted to record two amps and blend them together, would you record two tracks of each amp and pan both tracks of amp A, left. And...

    Which bass should I get for bedroom recording?

    I'm just record a metal "album", which is probably going to sound more like a demo, so I'm not looking for it to be super serious; but I'm looking for a cheap bass that will sound passable for recording direct into Reaper with amp sims, not a mic'd cab. My guitars are set up in Drop B, so a 5...

    A poll about sloppy playing

    I've always thought about this question, but I'd like to know what everyone else thinks. I am a very sloppy player, I just never had the discipline to practice like a robot. Whether it be arpeggio sweeps or fast runs or whatever, if you can't play it cleanly at least 80% of the time, does that...

    Recommend me awireless dongle for home use

    I'm looking for a cheap dongle set mainly to play wireless at home by myself. (And possibly try it out during band practice, but thats not a priority.) Any pointers? Thanks

    Went to Sam Ash yesterday, it was absolutely DEAD.

    Everytime I've walked in there in my life, I've heard multiple people playing instruments. Guitars, bass, keyboards whatever. I went to Sam Ash at 2pm on a Saturday, and it was a sad, sad, ghost town. You can hear a pin drop. The section with the lighting and DJ equipment had all the display...

    Should I get this cab for $150?

    I don't really need another cab but is it a good enough deal for $150?

    Can anyone pinpoint what changed in Yngwie's tone?

    These are kind of rhetorical questions but I thought it would be fun to discuss... What we know: - He switched from FS-1 pickups to HS-3 in the late 80s - Its apparent that he started using more compression at some point - He turns every knob up to 10 (supposedly) - His car accident affected...

    Convince me that Jake E. Lee is still a guitar god post Ozzy era

    His stuff with Ozzy is legendary, creative and unique. I've heard a couple songs from Badlands......meh. I haven't heard too much of RDC. Just seems like a regular bar band to me with average everything. What has he done even remotely close to his Ozzy Era god-tier playing?
