GodSlaYeRz Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I really love those metal tones in above clip. But I tried to follow him, and not close to that sound at all. My question is "Do I need to record this rhythm guitar twice per 1 track to get sound like that? Or I just record one item as mono track, and split it into 2 tracks for L & R panning.

Doug6String Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I do a lot of heavy/metal guitar recording with 6 and 7 string guitars. In JS’s video, the guitar that comes in around 1:00 is double tracked and panned R and L. So yes, you need to record the same part twice and pan it R and L. JS is a precise player and great at recording so his work is tight. You can’t record a track once and copy that and pan R and L. Well, to be more accurate, you can but it won’t give you the sound you hope for. That would be too easy! Doug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
