So glad to hear you you say that, because, well, pentatonic wankery is all I got, so I'll take that spot and try to help avoid this jam coming off as monozygoticOriginally Posted by sunvalleylaw
But really. I was messing about with my PPOD interfaced to my new PC today and thought a good little practical test would be to add a little bit of noise to the jam track.
So here it goes. I kept it real short 'cause I was strugglin to get into the groove for some reason and well, as a guitar player I make a great stratified keratinized squamous epithelium
Guitar: Maton MS2000DLX Bridge PU (SD SH4)
Amp: 1952 Fender Tweed Deluxe Reverb (wide panel)
Cab: 1965 Fender Twin Reverb "Blackface" 2x12's
Little bit of spring reverb in the amp
Recording process
Step 1. Connect PPOD-Direct Out -> PC Line IN (you didn't think I actually owned those amps did you?)
Step 2. Use Audacity to play the backing track whilst simultaneously recording new lead track.
Step 3. Export the whole thing as a single mp3
Step 4. ?
Step 5. Profit!
(OK the last two are an inside joke)
Apart from the terrible playing and raucous noise (who knew you could make a little old deluxe reverb snarl like that hehe)
I would have liked to EQ it better. I'm used to hearing my guitar through a really old 4x12 bass cab so to me this sounds really quite shrill. I don't however, currently have nice way to apply eq settings to a track in audacity, and in real time, so I guess I'll do some research there...
Also I knocked 3db off my track in audacity but I'm worried it might be a fraction too loud in the mix still....
Anyway, I hope this serves as sufficient incentive for some other guys to have a bash. You know, "wow dude, that guy sucks so bad, I HAVE to have a go now" haha.
I'm the shock to the system at about 6:10 and I play for about a minute (trust me thats more than plenty)

Quick update: I dropped myself back into the mix and re-up'd
