New: Metal Recording Pack

"Sounds" promising

And next will be... "Metal Handjob Pack"

It seems that the word "metal" is a key word

Stay Metal!

Sounds interesting! Very keen to hear those sound samples!

Well I have to say the multi mic setup works pretty nice.

I've created a sample made from 2 different profiles from this Metal Recording Pack (not from double mic profiles though). Just some ideas scrubbed together, not very polished composition but I believe it showcases the profiles well.

I've used the following profiles:
RP RECT V T1 MC
RP RECT V T1 P
^ these are the ones that have a tube screamer on the chain
Quad guitars with equalization and slight compression

noxtherox
sounds awful ) fizzy, overcompressed , and totally cheap
try to find normal profiles with normal mix ( sound) engeneer)


it is a very bad commercial for armin pack)

Wow, that's pretty harsh. I didn't think it sounded bad at all.

even though it might have been harsh I thank you for your feedback

I didn't think it sounded bad, but then again we might have different standards

Anyway, I'm completely an amateur player and sound engineer (if I even can call myself that haha). I always try to improve my mixes and i have improved alot over time, but for sure I still have a lot to learn

Still, I believe it showcases the profiles decently, and I'd compare this Recording Pack to some of my favourites from other commercial sellers

nox, I liked it.

Armin, very interesting concept - 22 profiles from one channel of one amp with one set of amp settings. Probably get this down the road - I am a fan of your VH4 and original Recto packs.

we are talking about good commercial profiles and good mixes with those profiles ? isn`t it ?
here couple of my mixes done with free profiles from rig exchange )

Stay Metal!

Your work is nice my friend

Perhaps instead of bashing my amateur, self-taught way of mixing, maybe you could give me some tips ?
I'm always looking to improve

Regards
-nox

some tips ? easy ...
in my first post I described main problems of your mix
brutal overcompression (pumping) , unnatural fizz and harsh on rythm guitars
problems with overall eq
if you want to more detailed analysis - send me a pm )
but this is hardly depend from your monitoring ...
i`m using quested monitors)

Noxtherox's quick demos sounded good, and at least he is playing and creating original material, instead of simply re-amping the guitar skills of other people.
For someone like yourself, who still has some learning to do, it's surprising you would be so unnecessarily critical.

Blackbird

a always tell a truth ...and my criticism is concrete,about sound and sound only.
about "simply re-amping the guitar skills of other people."
we talkin about mixing ? i`m working as mixing ( mastering ) engineer over 15 years.
for example - andy sneap ,frederik nordstrom - make "simply reamping guitar skiils of other people " too
if you want to rate my personal guitar and musicwriting skills , welcome - http://dropmefiles.com/en/Fntoj
but this topic - about profiles)

my main idea is simply. - pro commercial profiles - must have a pro demos
for example - if I made the opinion on profiles by the mixes of noxtherox, i never would buy this profiles.
unfortunately, from all metal commercial profiles ,i listened only one pro demo from Stymphalian productions...
the author of any commercial profiles has to be the first interested person for good demos of the goods
otherwise - it is a bad buisness based on newbies.
