Its a "best of" cover btw, full piece is 7 or 8 minutes long lol

sorry for the unedited guitar as well lol.. drums took so long i couldnt be bothered cutting of the noise of the solo when it wasnt playing

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Cool, man. What kind of pickups/amp did you use for that?

 

[nuntius]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Thanks

Stock pup on that thing <<<<< (its a gordon smith-british made guitar)

Amp was the trusty guitarport. The thing rocks for recording at the price nothing beats it imo

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Sounds pretty sweet except the drums in a few parts, but the guitarport had a really decent tone.

SC doesnt work ..... again


did one of you register there? LOL

 

[Davey]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

ok, listening ...

your guitar sounds a bit 'rounder' more balanced. did you make any adjustments to the patch i sent you?

the drums go a bit over the top (sounds like gunfire ) on some spots, but considering you had to do them manualy, they're pretty decent.

cool playing

i'm probably going to post the final sacrifice clip sometime later today (encountered some problems with savind the mixdown in cool edit as the backing track is a midi and erased the whole damn thing, now i dont feel like playing guitar for a bit)

 

[nuntius]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Well theres 3 guitars there

The one in the middle is your patch, and theres another two on the "really heavy" preset one panned left one panned right.

The pups on my axe arent as loud as your JB anyway.

The drums are meant to go machine gun, its a blast beat

 

[nuntius]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Figured it man!

I have my tone pot on 7, that'll be the rounding off your hearing

I've also realised I'm trem picking the bridge (first blast beat part) where I don't need to be.. ah well it doesnt sound too bad.

:headbang:

What album is this song on? Don't know if i have it :smack:

 

[nuntius]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Track three off Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia

:laugh2:

Ah well. the guitar parts are kickass just the band look a bit silly

 

[Davey]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

i'm just finalising final sacrifice man... hope you all like the outcome =P

probably, but i dont know if it's cool edit or something else, i cannot record at those volimes without clipping (and i am turning the mix volume down)
i guess it's just my computer

 

[nuntius]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Davey check one last thing

Go to the mixer for your sound card and check if the +(whatever)DB boost is on on the Mic or not

With my soundcard and the +db boost on the mic input it seemed to get clipping also

dunno if it'll be the same with your card but its worth a shot at turning it off and trying then

 

[Davey]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

nope, no boost, the line in volume is turned to half, the knob on the GP is half.. everything is on ****ing half but it is still clipping >.< i'm goin nuts

 

[DeadSkinSlayer3]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

I'm listening now, the intro needs more cymbal work in the guitar rests.

You sped up a little in that little bridge part, nothing too bad. (keep in mind I'm being anal, as I know this song like the back of my hand.

The part that leads to the 3rd verse part was a bit fast, and the drums at first sounded weird.

Otherwise, sounds good man! Keep it up!

 

[nuntius]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Dammit and I was proud of those drums!

bridge part yeah, I thought it was trem picked, i was picking each note 4 times.. when its only once :smack: got lost in that blast beat, couldnt find the start of the bar at all lol

by the 3rd verse i'd given up on the drums and copy and pasted a different beat from another drum track thing i wrote to save time.

suppose justifying why its wrong is kinda pointless but there you go!

thanks dss

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

DAMMIT

listened to the original and your right man i totally f@cked that bit up..

im playing at double the speed im supposed to, no woder i couldnt trem pick the solo...

meh, maybe i'll re do it when i learn how to become Mustis for the day.. keys dont sound too hard, may as well

 

[DeadSkinSlayer3]

Re: Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation (Cover)

Haha man, don't be so hard on yourself. I'll let you in on a hint though.

That solo is wrong, the way your playing it. He doesn't alternate notes like that, its a straight trem picked ascent up the G string, listen closely to the original, you'll see what I mean.
