What am I doing wrong?

The problem is that (correct me if I am wrong) with similar guitar, and the same preset- I should be in the same ballpark just needing to tweak slightly. However mine does not sound close. Let me go a step further... I will record a clip linking to this thread. You'll hear the 'character' that...

What am I doing wrong?

Same wood combo and Juggs, can master-built make THAT much of a difference? Does it sound like a 'wood'-thing to your ears?

What am I doing wrong?

Thankyou for your quick response. The input trim assisted with the gain, but the scooped, ballsy nature of Misha's tone is still evading me. I'm not sure about any Global setting adjustments... what settings were you thinking? I understand that tone is in the fingers etc, but the 'character' of...

What am I doing wrong?

Hi all, I'm appealing to the trained-ears/people in the know out there as to what is occurring with my setup currently. I set up exactly the same patch as Misha is using in the following video @1:10 ...so why does mine sound like this?!: Any assistance or advice/further questions...

Awesome dude, great tones that definately deserve a patch posted or two posted! ;-) Love the Recto'ness, but especially love the cleans! What sim/effect chain did you have going on for them? Jim.

Challenge: Recreate the Mesa Mark Series Graphic EQ

Simeon: Exactly, i have experience the same with no talk from Mesa (understandably). The only way i'm sure will be some form of pink noise/frequency analysis. As a side, if anyone knows HOW it would be done, but don't have the facilities themselves, i'm after this so bad i might buy/rent the...

Challenge: Recreate the Mesa Mark Series Graphic EQ

Thanks for your quick response and input guys! I have that Effect Block already though, and it only simulates one position combination of the sliders? (Correct me if i'm wrong) The issue is the fact that the Q value is not a constant. From what i understand, the more dB's pushed or cut...

Metallica-Style guitar riffing

Audio sounds awesome Frozen, the patch wont open for me in the Axe-Edit though? Anyone know why? It's set to 'II' and i can view it in the Preset Folder, but i cant get it to load in the grid. Everything else in that folder does!! How frustrating! Jim.

*looks nervously around* It seemed like a good idea at the time Don.... :-S We are in the 'more than one rehearsal space' club I'm afraid....every wall and ceiling covered... What/where would you suggest removing it?

The Damp-Factor...

Speedloader: Interesting patch. I didn't have much time to go into detail with it (try getting a drummer high on energy drinks to sit still and not play) but the same issue was there...what I would 'blanketing' or 'no high end, mid heavy'. I'm starting to doubt my own ears and what is the...
