    Need help with guitar tone problems

    in addition to what nickgray says, it sounds like you´re using the neck pickup. if that´s the case, use the bridge pickup for rhythm guitars. also don´t just record once and then copy the track to pan both left and right. you´ll end up with mono again because both sides play back an identical...

    Should I sell my Helix LT for lunchbox tube amp?

    i recently switched from using amp plugins to a small tube amp and i do prefer the analog route now. you dial it in, it sounds good and you don´t think about it anymore. working with real amps puts you in a different mindset where you focus more on music rather than tone chasing. it definitely...

    Amplitude or what software?

    depends what exactly you´re looking for in an amp sim. what issues do you have with amplitude? for another full amp suite i recommend TH-U. for a more stripped down amp plugin that sounds amazing i recommend Mercuriall Euphoria. lots of people may recommend stuff from Neural DSP.

    Best monitors for amp sims?

    the best way to go is what fulfills your needs. and tbh i don´t get what you´re after. there are no monitors that are made to sound good with amp sims. monitors are made to sound accurate and then it´s up to you to dial in a good tone. but you can use amp sims with real cabs. for that you would...

    springs of floyd rose style tremolo don´t stay in sustain block

    one of my guitars has a floyd rose special. since that one gives me quite some trouble i switched it for a schaller. but i put the sustain block of the floyd onto the schaller, since the schaller one is too long. i also kept the floyd springs. problem is the springs don´t stay fixed in the...

    Whatchya'll think of this tone?

    the tone is great. the mix works. kind of depends what you´re after. the drums are quite roomy and sound a bit raw. it works perfectly fine as a stylistic sound. and if that´s what you´re after, then great. if you wanna have a more modern punchy sound you´d have to make some tweaks, like lower...

    Pickup picking up metronome click in DAW????

    hm, that´s weird. if you use headphones also for recording, i doubt it´s the pickups, since any bleeding sound from headphones is super quiet. could be the output of the interface is bleeding a bit into the input. things like that can happen. for example my inputs 1 and 2 can bleed into each...

    Question about StudioOne or other DAWs

    did you try the pro channel modules in cakewalk? when i tried cakewalk, those actually sounded really good to me. of course it also depends on what kind of sound you´re looking for. i still switched back to studio one because cakewalk was too buggy for me. besides that i second what...

    Noob to Tube Amp Heads, I got some weird noise, need advice

    the problem is still there with just the amp and cab. so i´m sure the output section of the amp somehow broke when everything was connected together. could be the amp model is just crap in general, or the torpedo is actually the culprit and messed up the amp. problem is if i get a new load box...

    What buffer size, latency, bit etc are you recording/mixing at?

    it all depends on what your cpu can handle. i record at 44.1kHz 24bit at 64 buffer. not sure what latencies that gives me, but it´s pretty low. and i don´t monitor my guitar through the daw, but rather a seperate stand alone amp sim app so i don´t get any extra latency through the daw.

    Noob to Tube Amp Heads, I got some weird noise, need advice

    so i got a replacement amp, same modell. and there is definitely something really wrong in general. bare with me here. i set the amp to 16ohm, it´s connected to the Two notes Torpedo Captor 16ohm, a cab is not connected, the line output of the torpedo goes to my interface, i use impulses. no...

    Noob to Tube Amp Heads, I got some weird noise, need advice

    thanks for the input. i decided to go the warranty route. i´ll send it in and get a replacement. hopefully it´s just a faulty unit and not something with the power in my home. otherwise i might also need a propper power conditioner or something.

    Noob to Tube Amp Heads, I got some weird noise, need advice

    Sound samples here. I boosted the volume like crazy to make it audible. It´s nowhere near as loud as it seems here: https://soundcloud.com/jonathan-19-2/amp-noise I got me the Peavey 6505 Mini Head. After about half an hour of it running it starts to hum. I guess that´s just the 50Hz from the...

    Help me remember what I forgot....

    plug the speakers to the output of the scarlett. when it´s set as audio device in reaper than everything goes through it and not through your laptop speaker output.

    Any tips or any help on finding Tempo/time signatures for this song

    dude, i once had a job where i should put drums on guitar recordings and the guy didn´t record to a metronome. my advice, DONT´T DO IT! tell him to figure out a tempo and record to a metronome. if he can´t do that, tell him you can´t help him. it´s seriously the biggest pain in the butt and not...
