Here's my attempt to nail Devildriver's tone of the song Clouds of California. They quad-tracked with Rectos and 5150's using EMG-equipped guitars AFAIK, but I used the DAS METALL model to replicate that tone with my Gibson Les Paul Standard (stock PAF pickups, great guitar, best metal guitar I ever played and I have an EMG-equipped Charvel, too). The small lead is played with that same patch.
Almost needless to say, that my Axe-Fx made me very happy... I really love Devildriver's tone and did not even dream that I will get that close to their tone before I got my Axe-Fx a few weeks ago.
There's no mix EQ on the guitars, just a bit of reverb, McDSP Analog Channel 2 and IK's Opto Compressor on the guitar bus and Analog Channel 1 and a Stillwell Limiter on the master. Because of all this Analog Channel stuff, the patch will sound a bit brighter than this recording.
Whaddaya think?
As always, the patch (fw 7.18) is included in the attachment.
The clip can be found at netmusicians.org right here.
