I used to just program all the drums, so now I am trying to learn to get as good a sound out of my real kit as I can. It'll come over time. And the vocals...well, they're always a struggle and one can hear that I'm not hitting all the notes right. I need to do more and hopefully get better...
Hey guys, thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you enjoy it. One guy actually left a comment on the video and made my day. :-D Regarding the mix, I believe I overdid it with the compression. I am still very inexperienced at mixing real drums, and in trying to get them to pop as much as I wanted...
Update: I have played the Pearl 2002c for a couple of hours now. It came with the blue cams installed, they felt a little doughey (yet very smooth) in comparison to my old pedal, but I could play basically the same stuff, just a little slower - maybe because I'm not used to the pedals, I...
Ok, but what if they don't come in? Do they still love them? Seriously though, the 2002c arrived, has gotten some play and I like it better than the old pedal. I figured I wouldn't be able to find out much in the store, too much depends on spring settings and all that other stuff. So getting...
Don't know if they're available in the US, but check out Zultan. Their F5 series looks pants-creamingly awesome and sounds very nice, both for Metal and Jazz. And, they're relatively cheap! I really dig this ride: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Syj8fFJ-S98
The thing to remember is that 9V batteries don't like the constant vibration and tend to fail in such circumstances. Pedals that are welded to a beater should be driven by a DC adapter. This will also cut down on weight and allow for faster playing. :yesway: Anyways, I guess I will get the used...
Interesting. I'm watching a used 2002C and might pull the trigger on that one, but If spending more and getting a Demon Drive will put me at a significant advantage, I might do it. Anyone have any experience with the two? I'm not buying pedals every year, so if you look at it as like a...
so I've been playing on and off for about a year now, still in many ways a rookie, starting out with a cheap double pedal. I was wondering if I should bite the bullet now and buy one of those direct drive pedals (Demon Drive, Axis, Trick...) to have an easier time getting fast or if it's...
Bunch of necros you are! :-) Anyways, I "solved" this a while ago with a combo of Texas Heat & T75, if you're interested why you can read up on it here: http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/gear-equipment/143887-miscalc-compares-speakers-2x12.html
Don't be afraid to try drastic spreads. I like really tight strings on the bass side and soft strings on the treble side. I play in Drop-A, and at the moment, I use a .080 for the low A and a .009 - .052 set for the rest, even on my 27"-25" fanned fret guitar. Even for people who are not used...
Come one, come all! I've been looking at speakers for a while now, planning to replace the Vintage 30s that my Harley Benton cab came in. It was lacking bass and the V30's mid spike was a little too prominent with my rig/settings. Being a nerd, and hoping to avoid selling my butthole for...
I already have a Roter Fanned 7, it's my main guitar right now. What I want: - 007 shape - 27" to 25" scale - 24 frets - single, slanted EMG 808 - no tone, just volume What builders would you guys recommend for something like that? I don't mind waiting a year, but the guy needs to...
Alright, here's what's gonna happen: Next week (if all the shipping works out), I'll have these speakers at my disposal, all of them broken in with at least 20 hrs of playtime each: - Texas Heat - Governor - T75 - well, duh, V30 Since I have a stereo cab&, I'll put each of them against the...
Hey guys, I have this 2x12 cab loaded with V30s. The sound is a good basis, but I would like some more bottom end. So I was thinking about swapping one of the V30s against an Eminence Commonwealth 12, for example. Do you have any other suggestions to extend the bottom end of the V30s...
Hey guys, I'm planning to get a 2x12 combo to play my POD through it. I'll be using the FX return to get the signal from the POD into the amp. In that case, will I be using only the poweramp? Just wondering if a Hybrid amp would be the same as a solid state amp in my scenario. Anyway...
