It was a bit different than I was expecting (something like Slayer). It sounds great. I like the variety and vocal style, as well. cool.gif

 

I tried to do a thrash album but could not keep a band together. It's part of the reason I called it tOCK...(Like clockwork) because fake drums and my thrash just never sounded right.

I think the biggest impact (apart from putting hours into it) was a bargain thread on KVR audio. I scored a lot of cool plugs/software for cheap:

Heavily used software:

Soundtoys devil lok (vocals), rob pappen delay (vocals), breverb (some vox/most instruments), Waves One Knob (yeah I know), nomad mowtown bundle EQ, crysonic SPECTRAPHY V2 for loudness. Most of which cost me around $20 each (apart from the waves stuff) but they have not been on sale since.

Synths: Razor, Zeta, Massive, pentagon

Instruments: Steven Slate drums 4 platinum, Kontakt 4, Battery 3, miroslov

For guitars I stopped moving the mic around the speaker looking for a sweet spot. Nearly everything was mic'd sm57 direct center about 3 inches from the cone on a g12t-75. And on these tracks was a smidge of breverb to make it sound like a room (it was recorded in a dead room) I put breverb on the bass too.

The bass was cobalt hybrid slinky strings into a Sansamp bass driver pedal with some VST eq/compression/tube emulation.
