Satriani crushing day intro

[Brick_top]

Quick test with crushing day by joe satriani.

source was an mp3 file. It is matched to the Brit 800 model.

Not quite there but it is enough for me, mine is a little louder and bassy

first one is the original



the original is double tracked it seems

 

[NMG]

add a little room to your cab block and turn lo cut up to about 120 hz.

 

[Fl7x]

Double track it and match the levels and it will be almost spot On.

Sounds nice.

 

[NMG]

Have a doubler

load the preset and the mixer and delay block to your crushing day preset.

 

[chris]

dang that's so close hahah wow. ok tomorrow i'm matching celine.

 

[Brick_top]

please note that it could be a lot better if I tone matched both guitars and added room reverb, it would probably be more similar.

this is just a quick tone match.

 

[EdgE]

Pretty damn close ,some doubling delay or a bit of chorus .I bet playing with the tune sounds right on

 

[FractalAudio]

The main difference is the width. The original has a wide stereo sound, the copy is straight up the middle. Put an enhancer in there and I bet it would be spot-on.

 

[jshirkey]

Awesome. Damn close without doing any tweaking. Very impressive.

 

[vAmp]

Am I wrong, or does the original have the typical [very nice as an option] "dry" sound the Axe doesn't seem able to achieve?
Or maybe the total rewrite now makes it possible somehow...?

Haven't dug in much yet, but it is the one thing I like better from some Kemper clips (dryness). Love the "wet" Axe too, but would love "dry" as an option.
Not even sure if this dry sound exists in real amps or only on record for some reason...

 

[ZenRigs Man]

That sounds ridiculously good man - wow!

 

[fremen]

Good ! The original has slightly less gain, it's perceptible on the palm mutes. But you can lower the gain after the tone match, so...

 

[Scott Peterson]

I like the second version better than the original. More balls. Joe's tone always sound thin to me, and I'm a fan of his so no rip on him just a personal observation.

 

[javajunkie]

I would like to hear that preset double tracked, panned hard L/R.

 

[angelworm]

actually yours is better than the original

 

[Brick_top]

As soon as I can I will do as you say javajunkie

 

[iaresee]

Wow. Yea, like the others said: it's missing the enhancer for stereo. I was tempted to say the match is a tad darker too, but it might just be an effect of the double tracking.

In any case: nice job.

 

[Brick_top]

Here is a double tracked version panned 100% L/R, gets a little closer



edit - by the way I tonematched both left and right channels on the original, I got a slightly different result

edit 2 - forgot to say I mixed a little bit of a chorus block

 

[kmanick]

wow that sounds eally really close now, you've got a tiny bit touch more mids goin on in yours, but I may actually like what you have beter.
Have you tried Satch boogie yet?
oh and are you going to share this with the hungry vultures tht we are

 

[Brick_top]

I might give satch boogie a try later, tomorrow I'll see if I can do the welcome to the jungle intro.
