I had foergot to ask if it was mic`s or direct,but I guess you answered that one.How much of the distortion is the amp and how much and what setting on the ME-20? [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by METAL MELTDOWN from Tuesday, September 02, 2008 2:27:49 PM)

Thanks, it is a work in progress and I have to get a hold of a bass or bassist somewhere to fill in the bottom end. I do have some ideas as far as the chorus is concerned to "spice" it up some but will take care of the in the finished product. I got lucky with the guitar tone. I bought a Boss ME20 processor, run that thru my marshall with a cheap mic. Had to record loud as hell to get a decent signal but it worked out good. Didnt sound as good direct.......

Just heard it. You play well, MM. Then again, we all knew that about you. Personally, I liked when the tune got a bit faster. Just me own humble opinion but I wonder if you could throw a couple of triplets into that main chorus. Struck me as a bit "simple." Not that I could play any of it but, you know, perhaps you could spice it up a bit? Certainly a bass could help out here to get a "thicker" sound and also fill in a couple of gaps. Loved the tone of the guitar, btw.
I only mention the above about the chorus because you asked for some opinions. Constructive criticism, if you will. However, overall did I liked it! More power to ya' bro. Wish I had half your talent. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to hear the finished product.

Hi all....Its been while sine I have been here but I have been poppin in to see what is happening.
Well, I spent some money on recording gizmos and software. I have a test track that I have sent to Freeze for him to put some words to. I would like your opinion on this tune.
Please keep in mind that this is not a finished track. the solos need to be re-done and they were just one takers to establish where vocals should go. there is no bass on here as well. The drums are FL Studio "Fruty Loops" and not a real drummer. Sounds good though!!
