CLIPPAGE!!!!!
Mark IV and Suhr Veteran 30. First part is FW19 and the second part is Quantum. It's doing something to the dynamics right? When I played it I felt like the amp was a lot brighter but when I recorded it, it was equal brightness. It's not necessarily easily audible but when I'm palm muting the low end is tighter.
Niiiiiice!
woohoo I can hear a difference!
what I hear as a difference is in the second half of the clip, you're playing three chords and the third chord twice right? between the first and the second time you play the third chord there is like a bubble of bass bursting, acting kind of as a bass tail to the riff. this could be from gate settings or whatever, but when you compare it with the same part in the quantum version, there's less of a "bubble of bass bursting tail" (lol) between the repeats of the last chord in the chord sequence.
I'm talking about the low end pop happening between 0:16-0:17, and 0:17-0:18. now compare those pops to the quantum version at 0:45-0:46, and 0:46-0:47. there's a difference.
but even though it's a difference it could just as easly be from differeces in gain or other stuff influencing the gate, making the quantum version seem tighter from pushing the gate more, which results in less low end pops and a tighter low end because the gate is now more aggressive.
that's the difference I can hear for now, I need to listen to the clip some more.
Edit: it's almost as if it sounds tighter because the low end is somehow better in sync with the rest. in the first clip it sounds like the low end is falling a bit behind, while in the quantum version the low end, low/high mids and high end sounds more in sync, like happening at the same time.
I may be wrong though because I think it's natural that the low end is a fraction behind, it's suppose to be that way. Also I'm not really sure if it's even possible to hear that the low end is a bit behind the rest, maybe I'm fooled by knowing that high end travels faster than low end, but whatever the case might be, that's the feeling I get from the quantum version:
the low end, low/high mids and high end sounds more in sync. I kind of think I'm wrong though, because that sounds a bit gooped to me.
I can hear the difference though, but I doubt that's what's happening
