Title: Nailbomb + Blackstar HT Dual on higher gain setting.
Post by: MrBump on January 02, 2008, 01:46:06 PM
Was listening to the clips that I've put on here, and they all seem a little bluesy...

Decided to play with some higher gain settings on my Blackstar, rolled off the middle and upped the bass, that sorta thing.  I think that it's an amazing pedal, very versatile.

Please excuse the ATTROCIOUS midi drums - not sure what happened to my timing there...

Just made some adjustment to the drum part, and re-recorded the rhythm track, this time I didn't mic the Orange, I used the direct out feature on the Blackstar, cos my kids are in bed asleep...

Yea, the drums murdered my sensibilities!  :P

But the guitars sound pretty good... especially that solo bit. The rhthym guitars sound a bit like they're being played through an old radio speaker   :wink:

And hey, if you want like.. a nice backing drum track.. gimme a tempo and I'll upload one for you so you don't have to do those midi things...   :idea:

Oh, my...

I've just listened back to that - DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS RECORDING!!!



I think that I've worked out what went wrong with the drums (this is one for all those DAW jockies out there).

Checked the settings in Cakewalk, and it looks like I set the input quantize for the drums to 32 beat triplets!, but know on the kick drum!  Don't know what I was thinking...  I think that I was deafened by the extremely loud guitar parts...

Gonna re-record the drums and repost.

Safe to listen now...

OK, I've fixed the drums, and re-recorded the rhythm part, direct rather than through the amp and miked.
