Funny what you used to think sounded good.

[midnightlaundry]

Part of it is just having the time, space and gear to figure things out which I have more of years latter. But man, some of my old shit sounded like shit!

I recorded this a long time ago, used 2 mics, different amps and recording stuff. I remixed it, did some other things, muted the second mic in favor for just the one and EQ'd it to how I hear things today..

This is still not what I think is the bomb, but it's way better than it was before.

I used to think my Gorilla Tube Cruncher and Dean Spectra bass amp sounded like I could play Madison Square Garden. Angus better move over.

What you really need to do is play both clips at the same time.
Reminds me of those times when I was around 20 that I don't remember.

My Gorilla Tube Cruncher ( all 3 of them ) does sound good. Or at least into my two 4x12's it does.

I heard clips that dropped my jaw, was that you? They sound way better than they rightfully should.

Funny thing is I thought they sounded terrible back in the 80's compared to my Peavey Audition 20.
One day I will own a Gorilla full stack!

Hey, 40 years ago is a long time!

Pretty certain that I'm younger than you.
So, if you say so.

I used to think my metalzone into a SS Yorkville amp sounded good. That was back in the late 90's when I only had access to shit gear and had only been playing few years. I dialed it in as good as I could. It's weird hearing that Sammy Duet used a metal zone for his distorted tone with Acid Bath back in the day.

It was even weirder hearing that you got your tone from a V30 bath

Damn this is sick. You like Steve Vai? Personally I enjoyed the first one as the guitars were more forward, a mix for the guitar instrumental muso but the second one does sound more professional like what you'd hear from radio.

Around 20 years ago, I ditched my OG 5150 & Gibson explorer…

For a line 6 flextone & some Ibanez SZ model.

 

[TheGreatGreen]

Am I weird for thinking the Before version sounds a lot better?

Maybe the After version sounds more polished and pro, but I like the thickness of the Before clip more, and how the guitars jump out of the speakers quite a bit more as well. I also like the lead tone better.

 

[RaceU4her]

somewhere in-between i think would be good. the drums are a little far back in the first one, but the guitars and bass are glued better and the mix is a lot fuller. the second one is clearer but a little thin and maybe a tad too bright. song is cool though

Go fuck yourself. The jokes are getting ancient.

They both sound rad to me kimg
