    anyone tried XLN DS-10 Drum Shaper?

    https://www.xlnaudio.com/products/addictive_fx/effect/ds-10_drum_shaper it looks like it does some cool tricks behind the scenes, I feel like it is paralel comp and some audio sweetening. On sale now so picked it up to try. Generally I try to keep drum performances as organic and live as...

    Swapping active for passive on LTD

    I have a MH-401FR with stock EMGs that I might've complained about previously. To add insult to injury, something is shorting out on the electronics or battery compartment, and since I am not really that much of a fan of actives I started thinking of just dumping these pickups out for passives...

    Line 6 G30 absolutely dreadful

    After I developed a phantom problem on my last big profile show, where my sound cut off strangely several times for no reason, about 2 month later I was able to trace this to a failing wireless unit - Line6 G30 and its faulty design battery compartment. Never expected this to be the case as...

    Anyone catch the Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, At the Gates, Grand Magus tour?

    I arrived late so my drummer said Grand Magus got only 30 minutes to play. At the Gates were fantastic, better than last year when they headlined Houston. Arch Enemy was a huge disappointment. It felt like most of it was orchestrated via midi and only solos were kinda brought up in the mix...

    Boss MS-3 - can they switch amp channels?

    The effects look capable, I have a Mesa Express that has switches on the back and I'd like to be able to change channels and possible the lead boost and reverb on it as it is turning into much tap dancing lately.

    New XOTH sounds very promising

    I heard the rest of the album as I have journo pass to previews and absolutely rips. Probably that and Netherbird https://metalinjection.net/upcoming-releases/netherbird-into-the-vast-uncharted-stream seem very promising.

    Suggest a Concise And Easy to Pickup Method for Modes

    I am a seasoned musician but for some reason never managed to wrap my head around the modes, especially patterns for application. I know all the major and 3 types of minor scales (major / relative minor) all over the neck and can harmonize, etc. with no issue but modes for some reason have...

    any TC Quintessence users?

    Picked that up over the weekend, surprised it won't do 4th minor scale harmony as one of the settings as that's what I use in several songs. Any idea if that could be added via the editor? Don't see it as an option in the downliadable presets.

    (NGD) IK Multimedia AXE I/O

    After some band turbulence I decided that I just need a simple interface that will let me record 2 channels at a time and not upgrade to a bigger, better and more expensive multitracking solution but got me a new Mesa instead :) So ended up getting the Axe I/O (not the Axe Fx lol). Super happy...

    Any Soldano fans? Especially Lucky13?

    Wondering how that amp or the Soldano range will translate to high power metal, heavy metal and onward to the more aggressive genres as that's pretty much what I play. The Lucky 13 has no fx loop which stinks, so don't know how that'll be for live work as I use delay and boost in my fx loop...

    Testing out a ribbon mic - Samson VR88

    https://soundcloud.com/scrollkeeper/devils-calculus-mic-test-samson-vr88 Straight up on the grille, I think it has a nice character. Maybe I'll have to pump it thru a better preamp as this was done via my Edirol UA-4FX which supports only 1 mic and was super hot, barely getting the pre to 1.

    Anyone using Addictive Trigger for drum replacement?

    Just wanted to get your take. I am off of iLoks thanks to the debacle they had with the Eventide plugs that I bought, so Drumagog is out. hate dongles, so Slate is out. So that leaves Addictive Trigger. It looks capable, wonder what's your take on it?

    Anyone use Eventide plugins/iLok software?

    Just bought the Blackhole plugin and it won't install. The software for the plugin installed but the useless iLok license validation crashes on install. Running Win7 64bit. Error below:

    Any Mesa Mini Recto tube swappers?

    Just wanted to see if anyone has done this on here. I got the Mesa Mini Recto stock as of now. I did buy bunch of power and preamp tubes to put in another amp, was wondering if it was worth opening it up and just experimenting with these in the Mesa Mini Recto before putting them in the intended...

    Creambacks vs GT12T-75

    I have the GT12T 2x12 and am quite happy with them, but am wondering what will be the difference with Creambacks? Looking at some used cabs possibly to go 2x12 and am not sure which way I want to go.
