Hey all,
I've been playing around with a couple of different drum kit ideas for a new tune.

This is my first mix with the Made of Metal kit: https://soundcloud.com/bolton-mr/elephants-marching-in-this-black-winter

This version is a better mix with a hybrid kit based on Metal Machine with some additions from Metal and Modern. The toms aren't loud enough but I like how the kick and snare punch through: https://soundcloud.com/bolton-mr/elephants-marching-remix-with-drumkit-change

Guitars were quad-tracked with an Ibanez SZ520FM loaded with SD Black Winters tuned to Drop C. All guitar and bass is AxeFx Standard.

I'm interested in hearing what you swapped from the Modern and Made of Metal kits to Metal Machine - I really enjoy what I'm hearing in the hybrid version.

This version of the track is really mixed quite terribly, but I was really just testing out a new bass patch that I made and trying to punch out the ideas for recording later: [sc]https://soundcloud.com/dbartko/lunar-phases[/sc]

on two of the tracks I used a Jazz III (my normal) and on two I used a Dunlop Gel X-H for more attack.

Thats tight stuff dude! I sometimes like to simply focus on making sure that my second set of recordings for the quad tracks have that extra attack, turning all the guitars down a bit. and then raising the ones with the attack slightly more. not enough to overpower. just enough to get that natural sound more present

I too, am practicing some quad tracking myself. Certain riffs it sounds sweet. some times it gets lost in everything or is too subtle of a change

That's a good idea. Might try that later. Maybe change the compression a bit to emphasize the attack too.

Personally since i use the POD HD PRO, I prefer to do as much EQ and Compression as possible without the DAW, and of course not enough to negatively alter my tone. as its easy to make the guitars sound too washed out hence why my tone in that clip sounds like that as its not using any EQ or Compression to compensate.

The first version is all Made of Metal with no additions and then the second was a whole new build with toms and snare from Metal Machine, most of the cymbals are Modern and kicks from Metal. I can't remember if used anything from MoM on the hybrid kit. I can check when I get back tonight. I need to work on the toms in that mix anyway as they don't punch through when everything's going full on.

This is the first song I've ever recorded with a 7 string. Using a Ibanez premium 7 with a SD distortion bridge into LePou Engl and X50 sims.

This is the first song I ever ever recorded using a Peavey Vypyr 15 into a CI2 steinberg interface.

I have just tone matched JP's tone of Black Clouds and Silver Linings album using Ozone 4 and Th2!

Do you like it? I know that A rite of Passage and Damage control (which I played for no reason) don't need delay but I wanted to play The count of Tuscany intro which has it so I had to use it ahah
I used my Schecter Synyster Custom as always tho'

I make a lot of different types of music, and my style has progressed and changed a lot over the past two years. I'm finishing up my groove/post-rock/progressive metal EP right now on which both Ares and Aphrodite will be featured, and I've got a chillwave EP that's also in the works along with making beats and engineering for a rap project with a friend.

Overall a bit different from the typical SSO users, but I would appreciate a listen!

I got some new gear on the weekend, including cubase pro 8... love it!!!

 

[Steinmetzify]

No one has to listen to this one....just leaving it in as many spots as I can to remind me to buy another of these guitars next year, and why lol.

Red handed (greg howe cover)- this song goes wayyyy back for me so it was natural that i would do a little something with it as this is the first guitar i have had that has been up to the task

Ambient stuff/"djenty" stuff. Just post random songs and demos.

Really really quickly done cover of Everytime I Die by Children of Bodom. Did it as recording practice with VSTs since I didn't wanna fire up my amp but felt like doing a bit of practice. Used PodFarm and some other VSTs and I did it in Drop D because my main axe is floyded and Drop D isn't hard to do with it but D Standard is pretty annoying for a Floyded Guitar, esp with 10G strings. I really dig this song. Quadtracked it all except solo.
