Members spoonie g Posted March 1, 2010 Members Share Posted March 1, 2010 If you read an early interview w/ guitar player mag I think he says sometimes they reran the recorded guitar parts back into the amps to make them dirtier? Yeah, it's called re-amping; kind of a big thing in recording that's been around for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lucid origami Posted March 2, 2010 Members Share Posted March 2, 2010 if anyone has a pic of his loveless rig that would be a really cool sight. i don't think i've ever seen mbv board pics besides the reunion era ones... yeah, what's up with this? and most importantly - which unit did he use for reverse reverb? the alesis of spx90?

Members lucid origami Posted March 2, 2010 Members Share Posted March 2, 2010 regardless, I've managed to get convincing sounds out of both units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members woolyh Posted March 2, 2010 Members Share Posted March 2, 2010 did they ever use the GEP50 on recordings? the reverse distortion setting sounds really familiar to some of the sounds on Loveless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ponda Boba Posted March 2, 2010 Members Share Posted March 2, 2010 hmmm, I wish I knew what he set his pre-delay to on the spx90 between 75-85 percent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lucid origami Posted March 2, 2010 Members Share Posted March 2, 2010 the midiverb 2 is airy and sweepy, the spx90 is more dense and orchestralbetween 75-85 percent nah, the setting is in ms - it's an actual pre-delay for the reverse gate setting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ponda Boba Posted March 2, 2010 Members Share Posted March 2, 2010 nah, the setting is in ms - it's an actual pre-delay for the reverse gate setting then its 75-85 ms edit: from mbv's tech loveless erawet 100%liveness set around 3-5 room size 20.0 cant remember the lpfcant remember pre delay i experimented with these settings and found that the pre delay is at around 75 ms to 85 ms depending on taste. the results sound like thishttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOreojwOIIM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Sarum Posted March 3, 2010 Members Share Posted March 3, 2010 the midiverb 2 is airy and sweepy, the spx90 is more dense and orchestral Interesting... I never knew there was that much of a difference between them. Then again I never play either so my opinion is moot. I'll probably keep my eye out for a SPX-90.

Members acdc518 Posted March 3, 2010 Members Share Posted March 3, 2010 the midiverb has less of a volume drop at 100% wet. you may want to keep that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Diabolus_in_Musica Posted March 3, 2010 Members Share Posted March 3, 2010 [quote diabolus, i would love to see the pic you have of his early 90's rig if you could post it. Man, I've been looking all over for the magazine(either Select or Option) or image I had of it but I still have yet to find:cry: I'll post when I find! I also agree the midiverb II 100% wet is nicely fuller than even its 50% dry. The feature of having an output knob is nice as you can provide a nice ample boost as well. I think patch 43 is pure "Slow" glidyness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members acdc518 Posted March 3, 2010 Members Share Posted March 3, 2010 i think 46 is the patch he was using when i saw them in virginia last summer. my friend took some pictures that i never got but i can ask next time i talk to him. midiverbs are a great bang for your buck reverb unit i think i paid $40 for mine last year and i think the only think seperating it from the spx is noise. but the midiverb does have stereo ins and outs, while the spx is just stereo out.
