DESCRIPTION:
This 27.5” baritone signature model for Adam Christianson of Architects is one of the biggest, beefiest, meatiest-sounding guitars that I’ve ever owned. With its traditional Telecaster design (a simple slab body made of lightweight wood with direct-mount hardware and direct-mount...
Since moving to mac few months ago, I lost several important go-to plugins that I use for mixing and mastering. Thus, I decided to restart my workflow from ground-up and here's the result.
I am using the stems from Brandon Garrison who did a cover of this song, and I use all the MIDI and DI to...
[NEW VIDEO] Got a new video up on how to make your low-tuned stuff sound even lower and heavier. It's a quick tip. But it's about how to use octave-stye pedals to make those low-tuned guitars sound even lower. I used my Ibanez MMM1 tuned to F#1 and shifted it down to F#0. Then I blended the two...
New Video Up....Here's a cool extended range tuning to try. It's an Alternate Drop G tuning. Wage War and Architects also use this tuning on some of their songs, and it's really fun to play around with. I’ve done the tuning on my standard scale Telecaster with some thick strings but you can test...
I had a bit of fun with my Squier Jazzmaster Baritone. I've been fiddling with the Architects-style alternate Drop F# tuning. And thought it would be fun to take this tuning down even further. So I have done the same type of tuning but down to low D on my Baritone 30-inch scale length.
So the...
Hey SevenStringers,
So I had a little fun and put together this video on how to get that Architects/Wage War tuning on your standard 25.5 inch scale 6 string. I was trying this thing out with some 12-52 strings and it just wasn't working. So finally I got some Ernie Ball Top Heavy 8 strings...
Hi guys!
I wanted to start this new thread because there's almost nothing about this pedal on the net. In my opinion It seams to be awesome, even if there's only one review of It (by killertonetaxas on YouTube). It's like a 33 but with more controls, in particular the bass and treble knobs are...
After struggling for several weeks, I now know how to route my GetGood Drums to my DAW (Reaper) hahaha. I bought it like, 2 months ago and it's a pain in the ass to route it to Reaper. I know, I know, everyone's been buying GGD Modern & Massive pack, and here I am, super late to the GGD party...

Thought I'd shoot out some new software with my trusty DC800 (Nazgul/Sentient) I hadn't found an amp sim that's been able to make my low F# sound half decent till I splurged and got the JR Toneforge. That thing rips. Let me know what you think!
really liked it! definitely nothing new (because it was indeed some old ideas made by Tom that the band finished) but im glad to hear that the guys are capable of working on their own. Hopefully they will continue evolving their sound since All Our Gods was insane
also, production done by...
so, I got into this band recently and damn I've been impresed with their mixes (and overall all their music) so I had a lot of fun with this one using my ''usual'' tools and tones but trying my best to achieve the massive feel and weight Architects gets in their songs
I used a stem pack...
Hey guys so recently I downloaded the mix files for Early Grave by Architects. I've never heard this song before this but now its one of my favorites for sure. I'm looking for some critique for this mix. For some reason it just feels like I've put a lot more passion and everything into this song...
Hello guys, first post on this forum so bear with me.
Mixing related!
I'd love to hear some tips for getting that really 'clicky' kick drum sound, whilst retaining a balanced low end that isn't muddy and cuts through the mix well.
