Hey, this got posted a couple of weeks ago on the DT forums. I couldn't find anything using the search bar, so I guess I'll share it with you guys! It's not much, and not really that useful, but fun to know nonetheless.
What Frequencies are you rolling off with your High Pass & Low Pass Filters on your Guitar?
...typically most things below 60, and I usually cut a bit around 3.5, then boost more at 12-16
What Frequency Bands are you Boasting and Cutting with your Multi-band Equalizer for your Guitar?
...cut a db or 2 at 250, but boost at around 640 a db or 2. Always close mic, but never direct on the cone, always a bit off, but direct on the grill
What are your Compression Settings on your Guitar? Compression Ratio, Threshold, any and all settings.
...I never compress heavy guitars. I do it manually with automation, but mostly with the highpass and my picking technique.
Where do you Typically Pan your Guitars in the Mix?
...hard left, hard right
How many Rhythm Guitar Tracks do you Typically do per track?
...I used to do 4, now I do 2 per part. Sometimes it's many parts though...
Any other Tidbits of Info on what exactly you do to your rig to tweek your sound would be much appreciated
...track fx separately, If the guitars get lost, try boosting high-mids a bit before turning the physical volume up. When using the hi-pass, cut the lows until you notice, then back off...the hipass is just for getting rid of the shit that muds up the bass that you don't hear anyways.
Do you do any Final Mastering with Logic? I have Logic and was wondering which setting you'd reccommend
...I use Logic for synths and loops. I use Protools and hardware for all mixing and mastering. The hardware is expensive, but I've been collecting for years. An ssl stereo compressor, G-series, into a Manley Massive Passive. You can get a similar effect with a Waves package of ssl bundle.
When will Peavey be releasing the PDX-7 "V" (seriously...I can't find out any information on when & how much)
...I think so, they're hard to communicate with, but they keep making me what I want so... there. I hear 3 months though...
Like Ki, Love Addicted & but Can't Wait for Deconstruction!
... thanks, I love Ki, really like Addicted, and have had some pretty interesting moments with Deconstruction that seems like it could be monumental. It could just be awkward though... time will tell.
