This is my Modded 5150II with a weber attenuator at very low volumes. For this recording 2 microphones and a Sansamp BassDriver were utlized. A Sennheiser e906 dynamic was used on the left side of my 12 inch Hellatone 60L halfway between the cone and outer rim of the speaker, pointed at around 30 degrees towards the cone. On the right side, a AKG Perception 150 lg diaphragm condenser through a Presonus tubepre pointed 30 degrees towards the cone. Lastly a Sansamp Bass Driver DI took a line out from the attenuator and was run into the board. Guitars are doubletracked and hard panned. High pass at 100 and slight mid cut at 452.
The music is a tiny poorly thrown together riff from Opeths "Deliverance"
You will be hearing in the following order:
1. condenser
2. dynamic
3. DI
4. dynamic
5. condenser and dynamic
6. condenser dynamic and DI
7. everything with drums
I don't know, I think the note definition is great, the signals all sum up very well with no phasing. Faders are at 0. I finally shot for a mutli mic setup (since the last time i did this I failed, miserably) and I think the results are pretty darn good. I'm going to be recording an actual song soon with this setup, but I was wondering what everyone thought of the sound and hopefully some people will like it enough to use a similar micing technique.
ENJOY
PLEASE COMMENT, if its sucks, it sucks if it's great, it's great. Again I am on the search for the ultimate guitar tone and wanted to illustrate my latest results. I will gladly answer any questions.
