    I love/hate noise gates... (YouTube video)

    Haha... I'm coming out, I haven't used noise gates in years. Not for guitars and not in mixing either. I just don't like the sound they produce. Recently I've been wanting to try more gain to really dive into a more brutal high gain territory and in that case I think I may need a noise gate so...

    Legacy Kartakou TS Overdrive into USA IIC ++

First time I've used an external drive pedal with my AxeFX II I used the new IIC++ model and am quite happy with the...

    Legacy GOJIRA - The Heaviest Matter of the Universe Cover

    Hi guys. I love this song so I made a cover of it. The problem is that I used a sound VERY VERY close to the original, so you can't feel my guitars. I uploaded just the guitars on soundcloud, but they are on the video too haha I used a 5150 III and 2 cabs, the 5153 Mix and the PVH6160. If...

    New to Fractal Audio

    Hi guys, I recently bought an Axe FX Ultra and am loving it (playing downtuned metal/post-hardcore). The truth is that it's a beast of a machine and learning how to fully use it will take time. Wanted to ask a few questions that will help me get on my way. Answer all or a few - anything would...

    Hey guys, I haven't been active in this forum for a long time, but I recently tweaked a nice kinda modern metal / djent tone I wanted to share with you :) The signal chain is nothing special: Gate -> Comp -> Drive -> Gate -> Amp -> Cab -> Filter -> EQ -> Gate But the thing is (I know this can...

    New video about (8-string) metal/rock guitar tones

    Hi guys, I just uploaded a new video about 8-string guitar tones. I think this video can also be quite useful if you don't own an 8-string but just desire very tight metal/rock tones. Some very cool new Ownhammer cabs are previewed here as well. More videos are coming soon! I hope you enjoy...

    How to set up noise gates for a high gain patch?

    just curious what's your strategy for setting up the input noise-gate and the noise-gate block. I have a EVH 5153 head and use a overdrive block in PRE, and have a noise-gate block in POST. I'd like to be able to bypass the noise-gate block for clean channel, so it should take care of most of...

    The sun was out and i couldn't resist making a video.

    Legacy Comparison Bias/Axe FX II with rectifier presets

    Hi guys, Obviously Bias can't sounds as good as the axe fx II and both devices don't have the same price. Here the idea with this test it to show how fast you can achieve a good sounds with basic rectifier presets. You can also use this sound as an argument for those who think that bias...

    Legacy 7 string Q 2.4 Friedman HBE

    Just another simple song idea using my ProTone Bulb signature pedal with an iBanez S Series 7 string. My mixing and mastering isn't great but it's definitely better than what i've shared years ago lol all stock plugins within Pro Tools 11.

    Legacy Swedish Punk-Metal Something

    Hi! So I recorded this little cover of a nice swedish indie-pop song, which I love, but always felt it could use some punk-metalcore attitude! :-) All Rhythm Guitars, leads, Bass, Ambient guitars are AxeFX (Rhythm and lead are the TripTik). Hope you like it, it was recorded and mixed in 2...
