How do I get the fuzzy DI to come thru on the opposite side

Great mix, great sounding. You earned a subscriber :)

Congrats man! Love your content and respect the grind, i know how insanely difficult it can be! Keep it up brotha 👊

congrats dude

Side note on tuning: make sure your guitar is in proper intonation as well.

Well deserved 👏 Keep up the good work bro 💪

you deserved it dood!

Can't wait to see what the future holds man🤘

Congratulations!!! I love your videos!!!

Get the band in a room and some mics. Record the music live. Sounds better in playback. Listen to old music with a good Dac. Always has more depth. Sound stage is wide and deep with placement everywhere. Modern music is just loud and panned left and right. Boring. This is why Real orchestras sound soo good. They have a 3D sound stage. Not a 2D one like most metal

another cool trick for super tight guitar tracks is to REMOVE SILENCE. In logic it's pretty easy to dial in how tight or loose you want it and then it takes all the silence out of the palm muted areas etc.

Also keep in mind, as long as you aren't required to play live, and you don't mind admitting it, you can piece things together. I make music for me, I wm perfectly willing to admit most my music I can barely play.

Fellow reaper user here. Just curious - why do your guitar take’s wave forms only go vertical? I’ve never seen that before. Does that happen when you change the input signal from mono to stereo?

so you took a 7string guitar and tune it up ? havent done it. Seems legit

Cook your old strings to use them for rehearsal. always use "fresh" strings for gigs and especially recordings! I love Excelsior Strings.

Great video! Is part 2 coming? Really curious about that lower octave part!

very tasty !

So my oldest friend from School is Harvey Freeman - the Vocal of GN. He'll be made up to see his band's shirt here!

why do u hold ur pick so girly tho XD

Man this is sick! I have that Guitar. What gauge strings are you using and did you have file the nut? 🤟🤟🤟

Track with just the DI. No tone and see how good your takes actually are. Gamechanger for me.

Also forgot to say thanku and appreciate your time in teaching ys stuff. I know its not easy making videos! Fiddly :)

Is there any reason why you couldn't just make a copy of the 1 st recording left wav and swap channel of the copy. The u have L & R. I know you might get a fuller sound recording 2 takes BUT usually we would do this with different mic placements in the cabs. Nice gtar by the way! I had the green 7 fanned Ibanez like yours, imported from Japan , got stung import tax then sold it lol .

this channel can be summed up in one word: UNDERRATED!

nice tips! i would also recommend muting the strings you wont be using when recording the rhythm guitar(like 1st, 2nd and 3rd) to avoid some noise from those strings.

Hey bro, great video first off. I have gear question you might be able to help with. I just bought this guitar but it had a very bad setup. Do you know your pickup height or would you be able to measure it and give me an idea where my bridge and neck should be? Fishman is zero help. Thanks for the education!

here is a tip for syncing any kind of multi-tracks rhythm easily: 1 do a soft take of the whole thing, 2 then adjust the timing of each section to be exactly what you want. 3 then add a gate with sharp attack and long fall off and here is the key: bounce this to audio. Play this scratch track in the background as you go in and detail each section. Seeing those peaks on your guide track helps align everything quickly and helps you keep the original plan intact after several hours of detailed recording!

And he doesnt do recording on cameras which is indicator that he cannot play those parts without lowering the overall bpm when recording. Its all very obvious. I can see it even from the way he holds hds pick that hes not very good

Noob doesnt even know how to tune guitars proper way. If a string is over tuned : you should first loosen the string so its undertuned. Then and only then you tune it from there.

Great video. What strings do you run on that RGD? I have the same guitar and im struggling to find a set i like

In reaper 6. They added a looping lane feature and a razor edit. So that building in time takes takes less time. Otherwise great video!

this is very helpful, thank you so much!

Such an underrated band

Nice video! Just wanted to add a small addition as you are using Archetype Gojira X. Neural DSP made a "guide" on how to use their plugins properly and they stated the following: Step 1 - Check that the input type on your audio interface is set to "instrument" for the input your guitar or bass is connected to. Step 2 - Make sure the Hi-Z input gain is at its minimum value. That should be enough to get a good signal level. Step 3 - Turn your instrument's volume all the way up and strum or pick the strings as hard as you would when playing. Ensure the signal doesn’t clip, which is typically indicated by a red light on your audio interface. Step 4 - Use the global input knob in your plugin to fine-tune your input level if necessary. The meter will show if your input signal is clipping with an indicator on top of the meter. TL;DR: Input level on the audio interface should the Hi-Z with minimum value.

Even though I’ve been recording guitars for about six years, I still feel like I learned something. Great video

Very good overall, however if using Neural DSP Plugins set the input gain on the audio interface to zero!

Your DI is clipping mate

hey bro just started home recording guitars and using amp sims and experimenting in the last year..your video proves so usefull as ive conducted a few tests my self and everything youve displayed is so 100% correct .....self made musos .....love your work ...rock on

What's with the outrageous DC offset on the guitars?

Since you're recording in well-defined sections (as in, you know how many bars each riff/phrase is going to be), is there a reason you prefer normal recording mode with preroll and manually trimming your clips over selecting the time range and then using time select auto punch?

Thanks for this video!

Tuning to your pick attack was one of the best tricks I've learned to get the best takes. This video was world class brother! You killed it. Really insightful and helpful with the guidance you had and knowledge to offer. Keep it up ✌️❤️

Sick tutorial mate! Lots of useful tips! (love the graphic nature top as well btw)

great video bro!

I do the same technique when tracking my guitars. Great video! 🤘🔥

Jack back with the uploads!

Very useful Jack! I would really like seeing that mixing video too :D

you are the best guitarist, sound is good!
