So I got an axe fx II recently which is bloody amazing, used it live, made patches I love, but I really need to wrap my head around guitar tracking.
Quad tracking seems to be the thing (Im going for Red Seas Fire/Periphery kind of tones - Nolly is a god of guitar recording), but when they say quad track, is that meaning the same track copied & pasted 4 times, and then each track EQ'd differently? Or 4 complete different takes all added together? As to which ever way its done, I was also wondering if I could get a few hints to putting on EQ's and Compressors on the tracks (using PT10) to get the sort of sounds Im going for.
Cheers!
