    Custom Bogner Amp used on CoE, Self Titled, and more AMA

    This thing sounds like it has an eq curve like the Uberschall - really dark unless you crank stuff up?

    Guitar Why Does A7X Track with TWO Tones

    This is some awesome insight, thank you! To your point about the bass filling the guitar tone, that makes a lot of sense. I remember for Hail to the King, during an interview the band spoke about “ dialling back” the guitars a bit, and said it actually produced a bigger sound, which is...

    Guitar Why Does A7X Track with TWO Tones

    Hey @Matt Wildcat thanks so much for this response. It’s super helpful. Would you be able share some more of the philosophy around developing these duel tones? Is one tone (say the mid-heavy one) supposed to be the fundamental (or live) tone and the other (high tone) an “effect,” or vice versa...

    Guitar Why Does A7X Track with TWO Tones

    If anyone here has engineering experience, I’m wondering if you can answer a question about A7X guitar tracking: Lots of their music has the rhythm guitars quad tracked, with two guitar tones (a left and a right of each tone). One tone has boosted highs and a lot of fizz, while the other is a...

    Custom Bogner Amp used on CoE, Self Titled, and more AMA

    FYI @A.C. I would still love to hear a demo of this amp.

    Custom Bogner Amp used on CoE, Self Titled, and more AMA

    After doing a ton of searching on my own, I finally found an isolated clip of this amp, and honestly, to me it sounds a lot like a classic scooped Mesa with a slightly grittier breakup. Those are just my thoughts though, from the little I’ve heard.

    Question about blending different amps into one guitar track

    I have the same question, but I’m wondering what are some of the basic fundamental concepts for blending amps for building guitar tone? For example: -Are there basic EQ curves you should sculpt for each amp so that they fit together properly (Maybe scooping one, and making the other mid heavy...

    Guitar Effect in Angels Chorus

    Hi folks, I’m trying to figure out how to produce the effect Syn is using in the Chorus of the song Angels. My ears are hearing a high octave effect and volume swells. It may also be some sort of delay or reverb effect where he has the mix set to 100%. I know he’s a Fractal user, and that’s...

    Custom Bogner Amp used on CoE, Self Titled, and more AMA

    Can you tell me how you’d categorize this amp, very generally? I know that’s a tough question to answer when it’s so unique, but in my mind most could be broadly categorized as: -High gain (5150, Bogner, Diezel) -High gain Marshall (Friedman, Marshall JVM, Hellwin) -Crunch/overdrive (JCM 800...

    Does Syn sweep pick the lead in the Beast and the Harlot chorus?

    Definitely alternate picked, which is strange because naturally you would sweep/economy pick it, and he’s said before that he doesn’t even like alternate picking.

    Brompton Cocktail Solo help

    A few notes from me on this solo: After the wammy bar dive, he solos for a total of 4 bars. The first two bars are him doing bends I believe the 3rd bar of the solo is another area where he’s doing what I would call “2-string sweep picking.” This seems to be a technique he uses very often in...

    Guitar Bat country solo help

    I second this. Also, play as delicately as you can - don’t stiff up or anything. It takes a bit of time, and it can be boring. Even just repeating the run for a few minutes every day will help. Your video looks like you’re practicing it well. Keep at it. Just a friendly note, the last run you...

    Comment by 'DXMG503' in media 'Afterlife solo cover'

    This is extremely well done! I don’t suppose you have tabs of what you do for the legato part in the middle, as well as the quick runs at the end with slides? Most of the official A7X tab books are horribly inaccurate, unfortunately.

    incredible. Definitely need a gem like this modeled for the Axe FX. Would be a shame for it to get lost in history.

    Papa Gates' Schecter Hellwin Amp AMA

    Someone should really send a schematic to the guys at Fractal Audio and see if they'll model it for the Axe FX!

    I would love a copy of the schematics if they're still available!
