Quick clip

[exafro]

Was messing around last night with the 2 ch Recto and Uber models in Thermionik and decided to make a quick clip. How does this sound? Are the guitars too dark?

Dude ain't nothing wrong with that at all. Would be interested to hear them a little brighter but this had me headbanging inside of 3 seconds as it was.

Bumping this for Ex

Thanks for the listen Stein. I'm gonna tweak a bit and post a slightly different version tomorrow. I noticed the bass was a bit too loud in my car, which I didn't hear through my monitors and headphones.

Sounds good. I'd try a little brighter but not much.

Great clip dude.

Sounded right to me, sweet chuggy heavy goodness

Quick update with a slightly tweaked version. This might be better, or worse, but its different lol

Sounds pretty damn good to me!

Little bit more defined, dig this one more. Nice work mang

EDIT: mind busting out how you mixed this? This is a seriously great tone for as low as it is...

[exafro]

Quad tracked guitars(1 track of Recto and Uber per side) The Uber is slightly dominant in the mix, but not by much, maybe 1 or 2db at most.

Recto chain:
Kazrog Vintage Driver
Gain 2.0
Tone 10
Volume 6.8

Duality 2ch
Orange - Modern
Gain 5.0
Bass 4.4
Mid 2.0
Treb 5.0
Pres 4.0
Depth(off)
Bright Swith off(Normal)
Silicon
Bold
Output -7.5
Saturation 5.0

Recabinet 5
Ownhammer OH412 ORN + DZL V30 (Heavy hitters pack, A1 pick subfolder)
High pass 100
Lo Pass 10k
Lo Mid -1.9 @ 300 hz
Output Volume -10 (I find Thermionik tends to clip the bus if the levels aren't brought down. I always cut volume in Recabinet, its just easier to always do it in one spot across as presets)

I bussed the Recto tracks together and then added some minor multiband compression and a Slate VTC New York( Console, Normal, Gain 1.0, Mix 100%)


Uber Chain

Vintage Driver, same settings as above.

Uber
Bass 3.0
Mid 6.0
Treb 6.0
Pres 1.6
Depth off
Bright off (Normal)
Output -7.6
Saturation 5.0

Recabinet 5
Ownhammer OH 412 MES V30 CUT-05
Same EQ section as Recto

Bussed the Uber tracks together again with minor multiband, no other processing.
