    Which Unholy Confessions Intro version do you prefer?

    I definitely like the way Zacky does it live better. Going down to that low d for a pedal tone just feels and sounds better to me. As for how I play it, I prefer all downpicks like Zacky does also. You really get that aggressive/dirty attack with it🤘🏽

    Critical Acclaim Modulation

    Ids I’m not sure if you’ve got he correct wording at the end of that comment, A7X music makes me feel good too but I think you may have meant to type a different word😂

    Effects on Gunslinger Solo

    Is he really!? I never noticed the Wah, the “screamy” treble effect you refer to could be his use of the Sustainiac. That’s all I ever thought he was using lol

    Cakewalk

    In that case, I’ll probably just stick with Reaper since I’ve already started learning how to use it. Thanks Ed!

    Cakewalk

    Has anyone ever used the Cakewalk software and if so, how is you like it? I see BandLabs has purchased from Gibson and has made it free for everyone!

    House of Syn clothing? Where Did It Go?

    I do remember him having a clothing line I think. Probably around the same time I heard about Vengeance University. But I didn’t pay much attention because that was before I could afford name brand things 😂

    Improvising over All Of Me

    I don’t have any tips, I just thought it was funny that I learned to play this on the piano last week. Never thought of improvising over it with guitar yet haha

    Question about the synyster custom-s

    I would contact whoever you bought it through. It could be a defect

    What are you currently listening to?

    I was super excited for the new BFMV song, but sad to say I’m a little disappointed. They were at my first show, Bullet, Atreyu, and finally A7X and I remember clear as day how absolutely insane the crowd was for Bullet. And then I saw them with A7X in January and the crowd sucked! No movement...

    Seize the Day solo question

    Charlie is right, I just checked a video on YouTube of Syn demonstrating the solo and it appears to be all picked

    Home Studio Gear Question

    Reaper is free to try but the trial never actually expires. It’s only $60 for the license unless you generate more than $20k in revenue from the recordings I think. Then it’s $120 or something like that

    Home Studio Gear Question

    I don’t know much about Audacity, but what I like about Reaper is that the only thing you pay for is licensing. The “free trial” is the full version and doesn’t actually expire.

    Home Studio Gear Question

    I think I tried using it once and didn’t really like it. I have Reaper on my desktop. I used it back in 2010 to make a super amateur recording of Second Heartbeat’s guitar parts so since I’m already somewhat familiar with its functionality, I’m going to try to use it again.

    Home Studio Gear Question

    Thanks man:) I’ve got some more reorganization to do before I start recording but soon hopefully! I’ve been watching videos on YouTube that teach how to use the software I’ve got installed and it looks pretty sweet!

    Home Studio Gear Question

    That brings up another thought I had. Would I be better off getting a cheap condenser mic and the preamp while I save for the SM7B, or just stick with the sm58? I plan to learn to record by making covers and then progress to writing my own stuff. I would cover anything from A7X to John legend

    Home Studio Gear Question

    The suggestions I have read online say that I’ll need a preamp for the SM7B anyways. So I’ll eventually probably get both but maybe I’ll get the preamp first? Would he sm58 work alright to record vocals?

    Home Studio Gear Question

    Thanks Ids! Yeah I think the current mics I have will do fine for instruments but I’m not sure about vocals. And I hear the SM7B requies a lot of gain to help it sound good which might make it pointless to buy without a preamp. But they’re both over $400 each🤯
