    IR shootout (Axe 2, GuitarHack, Awesometime, Messiah, Signals Audio, Kalthallen..)

    Jackson Soloist vibrato question

    A friend is selling a Jackson Soloist (Jackson Professional in fact, so made in Japan, but that's the same), and some part on the vibrato block are damaged, so if I buy that guitar I'll need to change the vibrato. Question : can I install a regular Floyd Rose on it, will it fit ? Or will I need...

    Video : Redwirez IRs in the Axe-Fx

    Testing various Redwirez microphones/mic positions in the Axe-Fx cab simulation using the same amp settings - only the IR (in an User slot) change. Sorry for the boring blues-rock clichés licks but that's what I play when I tweak sounds Almost all the IRs on test here are from the Redwirez...

    7 Axe-Fx videos

    I just uploaded those vids for some friends, this is a review of all my Axe-Fx presets, split in 7 videos. I recorded the audio straight to the soundcard for best sound quality. I played non stop (first 4 vids are from a continued 28 min recording), with a minimal editing to censor the most...

    Your views on COSM…

    I've tried almost every amp simulator out there (well except V-Amp… and Axe-FX) for recording guitars straight into my computer : POD 2.0/XT/X3, Vox Tonelab, Zoom G9, Digitech GSP1101, Boss GT8, Amplitube 2, Guitar Rig 2, Rev MKII/III, Wagner… I like the versatility and reliability of Boss...

    Hardware impulse loader ?

    AfaIK, the Axe-FX is the only guitar dedicated unit which can use impulses, but it's price put it out of reach of most. Now, I'm not an engineer or an informatician, but correct me if I'm wrong, would a hardware version (pedal or half-rack) of something like Voxengo Boogex cost more than a...

    Tool-like band I recorded, wagner+juicy 77

    Hi guys, I would like some feedback on the mix of two songs I recorded for a band's first demo. The drums were (very badly) recorded elsewhere but I replaced all the sounds with samples you will all recognize ;) For the guitars I used Wagner sharp (left channel) and juicy 77, both going into...

    What sound would you use ?

    I'm finalising the mix on a home made album. Right now my only problem is that I can decide what rythm guitar sound to use, between my guitar amp (recorded with a sm 57), Amplitube 2 with its own cabs, and Amplitube 2 with impulses. So I made three different mixes, hoping to have some feedback...
