Date: February 20th, 2025 5:45 PM Author: racy slimy bawdyhouse hard to tell what effects, if any. Just sounds like a strong distorted lead tone, probably using at least his amp (he used Mesa Boogie for that album) and probably some distortion pedal. That they made cooler with the double guitar lead sound

Date: February 21st, 2025 1:22 PM Author: Motley sanctuary Very CR about low action and smaller gauge strings. In my band in high school our rhythm guitarist (who had no rhythm) couldn’t figure out why he sucked and couldn’t play and then I picked up his guitar one day and it was like trying to play and upright bass like the strings were 3/4” from the fretboard and felt like a tension cable in a curtain rod. When I fixed his guitar he sucked way less, but still had no rhythm and was generally an uncoordinated spazz. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5683650&forum_id=2).#48682219) |

Date: February 21st, 2025 1:28 PM Author: Motley sanctuary Yeah we were 16 and didn’t really have ambitions beyond Battle of the Bands. I met my best friend that next summer who was a legit musician and we played to together on and off ever since. We didn’t have the balls to put off college and really go for it, and it’s one of my biggest regrets even though it almost certainly wouldn’t have led to anything in terms of a real career as an artist.

Date: February 21st, 2025 2:31 PM Author: racy slimy bawdyhouse TCR - all he needs is a DAW, interface, and something like Native INstruments Komplete that has everything you will really ever need (including Guitar Rig). I would also say some studio monitors (like JBL 306, like $280 for the pair). If you get Komplete, you will want a midi controller, these can be really cheap and honestly just get a used one (tons of these stacked up at guitar center last time I was there)
Do you have Mac or Windows? If Mac, its almost a no brainer to just get Logic Pro for $200, unlimited upgrades, etc. Logic Pro also has its own suite of synths and I think even a guitar sim, and a pretty robust drum software. It also has its own version of Ableton's Live Loops which is what people like so much about ableton.
If you have Windows, get Reaper like he recommended |

Date: February 21st, 2025 4:22 PM Author: racy slimy bawdyhouse interesting, thank you
I just checked, and my primary interface (MOTU M4) does have +48V phantom power, I think its the line in vs instrument setting - hence why I probably didn't know when a DI was needed.
But good to know. TY |

Blew my mind. He's the rock king of chorus. So I thought |

Date: February 21st, 2025 2:32 PM Author: racy slimy bawdyhouse every tone I make has a light touch of chorus - often so light you can't really hear it. It fattens the tone up IMO (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5683650&forum_id=2).#48682488) |

Date: February 21st, 2025 12:30 PM Author: zombie-like gas station It's funny, I came here to mention mine, and clicked on that video having no clue that pedal even existed. It looks exactly like the PS-5 Super Shifter, but with less capabilities.
Also not the greatest for those who don't know music or can't stay in key or need to key change. |

Date: February 21st, 2025 2:35 PM Author: racy slimy bawdyhouse from what I read, he used his famous "Plexi" amp (I think an old marshal that he fucked around with endlessly but that was his main "brown sound" amp that everyone later wanted to copy - its one of the most famous amps of all time), and his Peavey 5150 Amps.
Hell even today 5150 amps (no longer Peavey) are found all over the place in rock and metal music. |
