Just finished mixing this today. I used my POD X3 Live, Reverend V, and Reaper for the entire recording:

Track Notes:
Track 1: Backing track with bass and drums only. Found at: http://www.guitarbackingtrack.com/bts/Alice_In_Chains.htm. The intro and outro sections are a bit messed up, but it's the best backing track I could find.
Track 2: Rhythm 1 - Panned 25% Left, modeled with the lead channel of a 1992 Marshall? JCM-900, close-mic'd with a Sennheiser? MD 421 and Mu-Tron? III envelope follower (auto-wah).
Track 3: Solo 1 (wah parts) - Panned full left, modeled with the lead channel of a Peavey 5150 MkII, SM57 on-axis, Vetta Wah, and Line6 Digital Delay.
Track 4: Solo 2 (treble pickup part) - Panned full right at the start of the solo and then switches back and forth for the last couple of measures.
Modeled with a Matchless Chieftan, SM57 off-axis, and Chandler Tube Driver.
Track 5: Rhythm 2 - Panned 25% Right - Carbon copy of the rhythm 1 track, but modeled with a 2002 Bogner Uberschall and Neumann? U67 Condenser mic with Mu-Tron? III envelope follower (auto-wah).
For this recording, learned a lot about setting envelopes for volume, panning, and plugin FX. For example, for the solo parts, the wah position was recorded post-performance using the Line 6 "wah position" effect parameter. Re-amping continues to be a blast. There's nothing like changing your amps, mic placement, and effects on-the-fly, post performance. I added compression to the master track, but still a very rough mix and I still need to learn about mixing and mastering. That's what the next recording is for! Enjoy!

OK, I see the link for the backing tracks. Shouldn't there be another link for the whole enchilada?
Now you got the phish in the enchilada! Sounds pretty good!
Stay in the mix and in the know.
