Members mparsons Posted June 21, 2008 Members Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hey everyone, I decided to do some more recording today. I've been experimenting with the E906 some more and got what I think is a really killer tone. Here's what I used: Ibanez RG421ENGL E530VHT 2/90/2Avatar 412, speaker is a WGS British Lead 80 Here's the clip with just SM57: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=442291&songID=6653913 Here's the clip with just E906: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=442291&songID=6653904 Here's a blended clip: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=442291&songID=6653886 Working on a track with vocals now... :evil These links are pictures of the mic placement I used for all three clips. I recorded the blend first, and then just muted the mic I didn't want on. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/ephrion/Mics.jpghttp://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/ephrion/Mics2.jpghttp://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/ephrion/Mics3.jpg Thanks for checking it out!

Members sled Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 maybe get rid of the drums since you're showcasing the tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mesa4x12er2 Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 Good job man, sounded great. Get you an MD421 next That thing makes your guitar hit. Literally pushes more air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeadNight Warrior Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 Sounds ok, but I think you could get better results still if you mixed up the positioning. At the moment, the two mics don't really sound that different. It looks like you've aimed both mics at basically the same area on the speaker. I'd probably look at having one of them dead centre and the other off a bit like you have now. That way one mic will pick up a brighter sound, one will pick up the darker more mid-rangey sound. Mix 'em together and you'll have a big full tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thinkpad20 Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 TBH I couldn't really hear that much of a difference between the two Then again it's hard to a/b when you have to listen to that intro each time you switch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
