Rig Pix

Hey DaveM, cool I like it  :thumb-up: , just played it through my Truths/truth sub, my taste - I'd add some presence (6khz) to guitar and some 10,15 18 khz (sparkle) to the girly background voice (sounds muddy (like roland things lol) and doesn't quiet fit the accuracy of the other instruments. But that's through my system.
Cheers R

the voice sample was from an old VST called "Distorted Reality".  I intentionally left it sounding very grainy, so that it would sound like an old scratchy sample.

I had a stroke a couple of years ago, and have battled a terrible case of tinnitus ever since, so I'm always very cautious with adding any extra high end...as I tend to overdo it.

Hey DaveM, I understand, I always turn my solos down to low lol, better someone else makes the choice.
From my ears: Overall the track worked well (although I felt like playing some lead guitar over the moody keyboard bits  >:D ), drums keyboards and bass were quite articulate, guitar was good but IMHO needed a bit more bight  >:D (hence 6khz presence suggestion), I get what you wanted to do with the grainy back ground sample, adding some high end sparkle will make it fit the mix better as (from the you tube clip (not the best audio lol)) the other sounds (kit, key, bass) sound good.  Quad tracking the guitar has also added some comb filtering (in places they go in and out and stereo image moves, sorry I'm being pedantic, apart from other things, I'm also an audio engineer..). Depending on your gear (recording/mixing stuff), you can time align the tracks (again pedantic, it sounds great  :thumb-up: BTW)

Nice setup!

[DaveM]

Oh that Mesa QUAD is sooooooo nice, i would love to have one.

[rnolan]

Hey Big Jim, very nice, do you run your rack through the Marshall ?

[big jim]

Hey Big Jim, very nice, do you run your rack through the Marshall ?

Yes I send the rack in the return of the Marshall.

[rnolan]

If you get a chance run it stereo  :thumb-up: (2 x Marshalls or stereo power amp/cabs), stereo brings these preamp alive  :whoohoo!:

The final evolution of my fun/bedroom/small club/rehearsing/recording rig:
- Ibanez LU 20 Tuner (True Bypass)
- Digitech Control Seven Midi Floorboard
- Roland UA-22 Duo Capture EX Audio Interface
- iPad 2 32GB 3G/WiFi running Positive Grid Bias / JamUp Pro
- Pedaltrain Junior
- Harley Benton Powerplant
For Club gigs a simple active monitor wedge is more than sufficient. For bigger stuff I can use one of the Roland´s outs to the PA and one to an active monitor wedge for monitoring
Sounds boss!

[rnolan]

Go SC, very cool (but no tubes  :facepalm: ) LOL

[MarshallJMP]

That seems a small but nice setup but i would never dare use this live.Looks a bit fragil.
