Hi guys, My name's Matt and I'm the lead guitarist in Darkadian. I'm also a recording/mixing engineer and run Numbskull Audio Production. I've been using Seymour Duncan's on and off for years now, but only just got round to signing up to the forum!

I hope it's not too much of a faux pas to post in this section first, but this isn't spam of any kind, just that this happens to be the only track of ours that I recorded with Seymour Duncan's (it's usually EMG's, for the most part) so figured it was a good way to introduce myself.



It was recorded with my Schecter v-1 Classic.

The guitar's a bit of a weird one. I bought it on a whim really, because I got a good deal on it. Never intended on using it for this band at all, as I have plenty of other guitars geared more towards metal. It came with Seymour Duncan custom custom and 59 (chrome covered) but me being the boring metal bastard that I am swapped them out for a Distortion set to see how it goes. Anyway, this is the outcome. It's still not my main guitar by any means but I love the crap out of it now.

Thanks for looking and I hope to stick around!

Whaddup Matt! Welcome aboard.

****'s pretty bangin' dude. I was bobbin' my head quite a few times. :headbang:

Hi! Cool tune. Bass drum kind of tires my ears out but matches the modern metal sound.

Hell yeah:headbang: Welcome. What are you using for amps?
 
Re: Hi! New member here! Metal track recorded w/Distortions inside...

Thanks dudes!
For amps on this particular track it's just modelling (amp sims + impulses) as I haven't yet re-amped this track. But when I do it'll be my Peavey 6534+ and ENGL Savage 120 through Marshall 1960DM (Dave Mustaine sig with V30's)

Here's one of our tracks that I have re-amped already;



(no we're not an instrumental band, just looking for a singer atm!)

EDIT: Ok, I can't seem to link it because it has a curse word in the song title lol. Just go here - https://soundcloud.com/darkadian and it's the song titled F*ckin' Disgustin'
