What’s up dudes!! :rock:
So, this year marks the 25th anniversary of Adrenalize and the 30th of Hysteria, two HUGE records that still to this day remain among my personal favorites.

One of my favorite tracks off Adrenalize has always been Tonight, so I’ve decided to experiment a bit with the AxeFx and see how close I could get to that tone (on Hysteria it’s no secret they’ve used the Rockmans, but I’m not quite sure about what was used on Adrenalize) :confused:

Anyway, there are TONS of layers on the record, I think I've managed to get a pretty convincing Def Leppard-ish clean sound by stacking my sh**ty 80€ acoustic (mic’ed up with an sm57) and my electric guitar, played on the bridge pickup (a Seymour Duncan 35th Anniversary JB) using the USA Pre Clean in the AxeFx. The distorted parts were played on the Friedman BE v1.
Enjoy! ;)



To anyone interested in the AxeFx patches, I've shared them on the Fractal forum, you can download them for free here

Way better than the Mutt Lange Rockman stuff ever was ... :thumbsup:
 
Excellent video! Funny timing as I have been listening to DL the last 2 days. It's been years and years since I last listened to them from my iTunes library. Thanks for posting.
