Hi Everyone ,
Here s the second thread i m posting on the forum , the first one was for "brothers in arms " and i thank again those who have answered and given me advices , especially Moke who has posted a preset that i m impatient to try!!!! i ll do it as soon as possible .
i d like to ask you about an other tune i d like to play with my band and i have always looked for a beautiful sound to play this tune , the song is " Wicked Game " by C.Isaak and the guitar sound of Hershel Yatovitz ,
here sa piece of the interview he has given for Fractal because Hershel uses the Axe;
"The key component of the “Wicked Game” tone is lush delay and reverb. It’s remarkably lush and very organic in a clean way - not too washed out. The clarity of the reverb in the Axe-Fx is really nice - you can use a lot of it without losing the note content.
To dial that one in, I start with a clean boost with a treble boost into a multi-band compressor which gives a very transparent compression compared to a stomp box. From there it’s into a volume pedal to a stereo delay and hall reverb. For the amps, I use two Twin Reverbs with the bright switches on. Use the middle and neck pickups of a Strat-style guitar for that out-of-phase sound. Secret revealed.
The original recording is a Strat into a ’64 Fender Deluxe Reverb. It’s a very layered sound, comped from different takes. There are multiple tracks ringing simultaneously, cross-fading multiple parts with the delay added in post."
So here s the equation to solve to recreate as close as possible the "Wicked Game" beautiful tone and to me a fantastic taste of guitar .....i did not manage to solve it , i did not find the solution....setting one amp and cab is already difficult so making sound together two is really a nightmarre , i did not begin to add any effect to the patch i ve started to create....
so if there were people who are good in maths and who like to solve this huge equation and who like the song , i really appreciate sharing advices , presets or everything you want !!!!!
