Members Randy Van Sykes Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Originally posted by JamesPeters Easy enough to fix. For sure.Depending on how you set the EQ on the amps. I could like the sound of all of them pretty equally for this type of music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 1 is the MKIV Dang, I just heard the "giveaway" in #3 too. I still think 1 is the MKIV... ugh. I have tin ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JamesPeters Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Fine, I lose again! Tarnation!Next time, if you can, post something with less blblblbllblblblblblblblblb style picking and more chords or something. It's really hard to tell what's going on if the guitarist doesn't stop much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members El Guapo Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 1. Mark IV2. 51503. VHT ULTHe first and third clips sounded almost identical. But the third clip sounded like it's had a little more meat to it. It sounded slighly thicker to me. So the third one's my pick.Nice recording by the way!

Members Megadeth7684 Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Originally posted by JamesPeters Oh please. What the hell do you know. Not very much, but I can tell the difference in the clip when he's picking fast. That's pretty easy to pick out, tight clear amps let you hear those fast picking runs more clearly.

Steve Yeah, like a VHT is obviosuly better than a 5150 for fast death metal type stuff, because it's so clear and precise. That's one of the reasons I like the 5150 though, I don't play fast stuff like that, so it fits my style more. I don't need a crystal clear amp.

Members harridanguitar Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 My guesses:1. VHT2. Mark IV (funky eq?)3. Peavey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sick Michael Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 1 = VHT2 = MK43 = 5150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Megadeth7684 Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 I can't believe people are guessing 5150 for that third clip. As soon as that first clip started playing, I thought, that's the 5150. Maybe I'm just retarded though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ed DeGenaro Posted April 17, 2006 Members Share Posted April 17, 2006 Originally posted by sah5150 Ok, here's another experiment. I have here three clips of part of one tune. Each clip is the exact same thing reamped through a different amp. The amps used were: Mesa Mark IV 5150II (Rhythm channel boosted w/modded TS9) VHT UL Your mission (should you choose to accept it) is to match each clip to the amp it was recorded with and tell me which you prefer and why... And, yes, I know the drums suck. They are just there for mix reference... And yes, I know one of the clips was gated too aggressively with my Decimator on the stops, but I couldn't fix it with out reamping again and I don't have time now... The clips: http://members.cox.net/sahbob/ampone.mp3http://members.cox.net/sahbob/amptwo.mp3http://members.cox.net/sahbob/ampthree.mp3Have fun... Steve No clue/don't care to guess what's what. BUT, I dig the first oneam okay with the 3rd and hate the second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now now Mega.....I believe we have all made incorrect calls on amps plus some people are listening to these on uber high quality $10 pc speakers.

Yeah, I know, I was just saying. If that third clip is the 5150, I will be shocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
