Just wondering if any of you recording gurus have experimented with using baritone guitars as a halfway house between guitar and bass for recording rhythms? I’m talking about just mixing in just enough to support the bass.
ive tried finding some examples but mostly I get djenty stuff when googling anything to do with baritone or 7/8 string guitars and mixing.
I’m mainly looking for a way to get the tone in my head to come out of a mix and no amount of distorted or split path bass setups are getting me there. I can’t really think of a reference sound, but if I had to describe what I’m thinking of its medium gain but heavy with Iron Maiden style compositions if they were down tuned a bit.
My thought at this point is to double track my normal modded Marshall style guitar left and right, then have a third baritone guitar track down the middle with a somewhat modified arrangement somewhere between the bass line and guitar rhythms.
Anyway let me know if anyone has any examples or have experimented with this. I don’t currently have a baritone guitar so trying to do a bit of research before I go all in.
