    Little Axe-FX clip

    Just a little test to see how close I could get to a 5150-like sound with my Axe-FX. Using 2 impulses loaded into the Axe-FX. A homemade Bogner V30 one with one of Guitarhack's famous impulses. http://www2.hku.nl/~tymon/mp3/Tymon%20-%20Moody%20Axe%20Metal.mp3

    Warchitect pic story (my latest prod, death / thrash / prog)

    Hey guys! Let me tell you about my latest production: Warchitect. A dutch death / thrash / prog band. You can clearly hear the influences from bands like Death, Atheist, The Haunted. We all agreed their CD should sound fresh, vivid and organic. We wanted to give it a certain old school and...

    How's this for a heavy Marshall sound?

    Hey guys, While I'm not really into heavy Marshall sounds I had the opportunity to borrow a friend's Marshall preamp for some time. It's a 9000 series preamp, don't know any details. I went for a Gorefest like sound, what do you think? I think it turned out descent but I'm by no means a...

    Repairing f*cked up guitars

    I'm sure we've all been through it, mixing a project recorded by someone else where the guitar sound totally sucks. I was wondering how you guys approach fixing up really bad guitar sounds (no DI recorded). Just the usual stuff like EQ and dynamic control or do you have any secret tips and...

    Latency (monitoring)

    Hey guys, I've been thinking about this issue for some time now but never really asked someone about it or read anything useful on it. We all know Pro Tools (TDM & HD, I have no experience with their non dsp stuff) monitors all incoming signals through software, or their dsp hardware, however...

    Tried a deathmetal song for a change

    Hey! I wanted to do some production practice on a deathmetal song so I just wrote my own song and recorded it. I went for this semi old school prod, where everything's clear and has a nice definition to it but at the same time there's this raw and characteristic edge to it...

    And yet another EZdrummer test

    http://student-kmt.hku.nl/~tymon/mp3/EZMetal2.mp3 I had to do very little with the drums, only some EQ here and there. I LOVE the piccolo snare in EZdrummer! Tuned my guitar to G so it got a little SYL like.

    Bad tube? Blue glow

    Hey, question: One of the 2 power tubes of my Laney GH50L has a blue glow at the bottom of the tube. Also the sound is changing in volume and there's a weird hiss present. I can also produce the same hiss sound when turning the gain and master pots (poweramp pots). Do I have a bad tube? And what...
