I know there are a few threads around double tracking in a studio or on a recording, but what's everyone's approach to doing it live....?
I'm the only guitar player in a few bands, and what I've tended to do in the past is run 2 amp and cab blocks in parallel. In the second row of the amp and cab I have a mono delay set to 100% mix and between 20-30ms delay. Both parallel rows then merge into a mixer, where I control the second row's mix with a foot controller to bring it in and out as needed. Each row is set to be hard panned as well (with the bottom row hard L and top row hard R):
Now, to my ears it seems the mono delay is somehow affecting the tone of the top row there, but I'm also curious if there's a 'better' way to get the sound thicker using this kind of approach...? Would, for example, skipping the mixer, hard panning the cabs and using the enhancer block be better?
Appreciate it's all subjective, but any other approached people use would be great to know.
