Members Tommi Inkila Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 Hi, I got a chance to test and record Sig:X... I didn't have much time so I worked quickly with the settings at low volume, reused/rewrited lot of my old riffs and licks and ended up getting the following tune: http://www.scenerychannel.com/Tommi%20Inkila%20-%20RNO.mp3 I used some EQ afterwards to make it fit the mix better. Also, this was the first time I used programmed S2. I hope you like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members petelaramee Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 Sounds great. I sold my sigx because I had a hard time keeping it tight on my 7string, but it obviously sounds awesome in this context.Great playing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Erock503 Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 sounds great man, great playing and tones. enjoyed that Sounds great. I sold my sigx because I had a hard time keeping it tight on my 7string, but it obviously sounds awesome in this context. Great playing too. isn't that a bummer, there were some great amps I've owned that just didn't handle the low B right to my ears. Almost makes me wish I didn't love 7 strings sometimes.

I was impressed by the production and playing more than the tone itself as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tommi Inkila Posted August 9, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 I was impressed by the production and playing more than the tone itself as well Thanks!! I'm happy to hear that ... I personally have not yet formed an final opinion about the Sig:X yet... it's definately on the plus book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maleficio Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 Nice production. May want to bring up the lead track some, and back off on the reverb and delay, sounds too much like Satriani, plus it tonally and environmentally clashes with the in-your-face rhthym. Just my opinion. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Efekkt Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 Badass. But like what Maleficio said it could use some work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tommi Inkila Posted August 9, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 Badass. But like what Maleficio said it could use some work. Thanks! There's definately room for work but on the other hand this was 3 hour test and mix. The reason I mixed lead lower every now and then was to emphasize rhythm tone and more importantly to hide some playing My intention was to make a quick soundclip without too much mixing... I'd play and change tones for everything now that I know how the tune goes, cut some 300hz and put back some 1kHz-2kHz... but I'd keep the Satriani Plus open up the amp a bit more.

Way better than I could do. And I definitely want one of those Sig:X heads now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks... quality recording equipment helps a lot. I will probably do a slightly more mixed version, but I don't want to go for too polished version since then it loses a bit of the idea of how the amp sounds.

Members Keebz Posted August 9, 2008 Members Share Posted August 9, 2008 thats the only sig x clip I've liked so far.Hell yeah! Doesn't sound dry at all, like the clip posted a few days back!Great recording, and playing too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Katrina Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 I don,t post here very often, but that sir was some very nice playing and very cool tone. I,m also a proud Sig X owner, and I was wondering if you would,nt mind posting your settings on the amp for that clip? Thanks alot for the clip too, keep it up!

Members thinkpad20 Posted August 10, 2008 Members Share Posted August 10, 2008 Sounds cool, I actually just sold mine. went for the Axe-FX. What? Oh come on man ^ not because of the Axe-FX (I'd love to get one myself) but you talked up the Sig-X so much... Oh BTW, great playing and tone as always you really have an ear for dialing stuff in and recording and all of that. Best Sig-X clip I've heard yet.

I,m also a proud Sig X owner, and I was wondering if you would,nt mind posting your settings on the amp for that clip? Thanks alot for the clip too, keep it up! Thanks... here's approx settings: Rhythm: Rhythm Channel - Live Mode - Boost on - Gain More - 100w Voicing Max - Saturation 14:00 - Master 8:45 - Wood - Treble 13:45 - Mid 10:00 - Bass 12:15 - Depth 14:30 Lead: Lead Channel - Blow Mode - Boost on - Gain More - 40w Voicing Max - Saturation 14:30 - Master 8:50 - Wood - Treble 13:50 - Mid 11:00 - Bass 13:45 - Presence 10:00 If I could do another take, I'd probably add some treble to both settings... this way it sounds nice in the room but on the tape it's a bit duller. Also, probably would change the voicing a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
