jbarney1991 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Hey everyone. So I just finished up recording a series of singles with my band and I exclusively used the Line 6 Helix on all the guitar parts. It was a fun process and my producer was very pleased with the results. He had actually never heard of it when I brought it to him. He suggested mic'ing my cab or using one of his amp sims that he uses and we tried some things and alot of them sounded great. I told him I would bring my helix and show him the next day. He was very impressed with the interface, the sound quality and the seemingly unlimited possibilities. So here is our first single entitled "Very Well". I used the tweed blues brt for cleans and the cali recto for high gain. Also used ownhammers 412 mesa v30 impulse response. I think some of the mastering squashed the distortion quite a bit but i'm still pleasantly surprised at how it all came out. If you have any questions about my rig feel free to ask! Thanks :) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papanate Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 The Mix is great - And the guitars sound authentic sounding. Excellent tweaking to get a really nice tone without IDing to a specific amp. Re: The Video I love the Bass Players disassociation from the band...on the iPhone - Standing cockeyed looking bored - very witty and poignant. I take exception to the lyrics - the concept behind them is great - it's a great story - but the words used are pedestrian and bland IMO. Although - I'm also older - is this a style that I'm too old to appreciate?LOL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbarney1991 Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 Haha! That's just my vocalist's style I guess! I never had any problem with his use of words... However.. I don't typically listen to lyrics.. I'm more into the melodies and production. So to answer your question.. No I don't think it's a style I just think maybe it's his style of delivery.. Thanks everyone for the compliments! I am very happy with the Line 6 Helix and the way this turned out. I can't wait to use it live! Rock on!

jbarney1991 Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 God damn session drummers! They're always trying to do the least amount of work for the most money ;) I kid.. I kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeathDaddy Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times..."rock and roll needs more racquetball integration". :)! Nice tune, nice tone, and I commend both guitar players for resisting the urge to play lots of fast notes. It wouldn't fit the song, so it's not there. Great job! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
