Rock tune

[Clint 55]

Rock tune I did in Reaper. Used a plug in for the drums and amp sims for the micd guitar, bass direct. I learned about compression today, really improved the clean guitar sound.

Re: Rock tune

Clint, I love both guitar tones, but I am very interested to know what you used for the distorted guitar. That sound is right in my wheelhouse. Nice work.

Re: Rock tune

Thanks, I was surprised how good the sounds were on the free amp sim. It's called the rockrack. https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/p...v3_player.html The sound on the chorus is ENGL Rock Hard and the sound on the bridge is Mellow Leads.

From a mix perspective you still have work to do but the individual tones are fine.

Re: Rock tune

What do you suggest?

Re: Rock tune

The cleans are too far forward/up. Feels like I need to turn it up when the distortion cuts in. Dirty sounds is cool, reminds me of ZZ Tops Mescalero album.

Re: Rock tune

Ok thanx, I adjusted the levels, let me know if you think it's improved.

Re: Rock tune

When you replay the tracks in Reaper, start with them peaking at the same level, then adjust to taste.
