    Hughes & Kettner Trilogy Head for sale (UK)

    Fucking love this amp but I'm poor and don't use it much. Sadly discontinued and hard to get nowadays. Works perfectly, just the usual scratches on the tolex etc from a couple tours a few years ago. Super versatile amp, designed to basically be an AC30, JCM 800 and Soldano/5150 in one...

    HM-2core band. (FFO Black Breath/Nails/Harm's Way etc)

    2 of 5 songs from an EP. I did their last EP and demo in a more saturated Kurt Ballou style, decided to clean things up a little this time round. All real except the kick which is replaced. Song 1: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3809498/Nail%20Bed.mp3 Song 2...

    Les Paul pickups

    So last year I replaced the stock Classic 57 and 57+ pickups in my Gibson LP traditional because I wanted something a bit hotter. I put in a 496r and 500t and hate 'em. They're high output but just sound like cloudy, unclear crap with no attack. What would you guys recommend? I play...

    More Than Life (Live Set) - Melodic Hardcore content.

    I recorded More Than Life's set at the Camden Underworld for the final Last Witness show. http://vimeo.com/77890224 One of their guitarists has awful tone and I couldn't put up any overhead mice so it was an uphill struggle but I'm pretty happy overall. Any feedback would be much...

    Live show mix (Bury Your Dead, On Broken Wings, BMTH style)

    I recorded and mixed this live set for a UK band's last show at the Underworld. Shit was chaotic, mice getting knocked over, bass pickup breaking, everything being used as a platform for stage dives etc. Any feedback would be super appreciated...

    Recording a live band

    I've been offered to record/mix a band's last show and am looking for some advice for those of you who may have done so before. They're a heavy, downbeat hardcore band playing at the Camden Underworld (small stage) and the crowd are going to be insane - stage-diving and knocking shit...

    Title Fight/Daylight style band

    My ears are dead so I need yours! Obviously the vocals (and lyrics) are pretty bad but any pointers or criticism would be welcome. All real, no samples, amp sims etc. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3809498/Missing%20You%20Mix%201.mp3

    Drum mic phase-alignment

    I know there's quite a few people on this forum who have difficulty getting good recored drum sounds. I'm about so start some drum editing and I decided to do a quick before and after of just adjusting the phase relationship of the mics. This way you can hear how far it goes in giving you...

    Logic bug with editing

    Wondering if anybody else has had this issue: When cutting a bunch of regions, Logic does so unevenly: I definitely have Group mode turned off (and phase-locked editing disabled), 'Snap To Zero Crossings' turned off too. I actually need to make sure all these regions start at the exact time...

    Sennheiser MD-421 on snare

    Has anybody tried this? I know Jay Maas (Defeater, Bane etc) loves it. The Home Recording Show had it as part of their snare shootout and it rejects the bleed really well. Plus it seems to really have that low-mid smack. Would be interested to hear other people's thoughts on it.

    Slayer/Entombed meets hardcore (Boss HM-2 content)

    This is a band I've recorded and posted on here before, just did a quick demo for them: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3809498/Mixes/Iron%20Fist.mp3 We just tried to make it as dumb and over the top as possible, hence the bell toll. EDIT: Re-did it from scratch, no longer sounds anemic.
