  • Recording W/D/W

    Quote from MuddySludge

    I like to live track with a drummer with reverb on and morph delay on the fly.

    Guitar Bass and Harmonica all recorded like a live performance.

    I play the effects as much as the instrument. No rules for getting the mojo.

    My soundcloud tracks are all live tracking on a digital recorder.

    I would rather play than engineer. 8)

    interesting, I'll check your soundcloud out. I LOVE to engineer, so I'm not bothered by getting crazy on that front, but I'd never do so in a way that sacrifices the vibe of the performance. I'm also way more on the "one man band" side of things so I don't have the considerations you do.

    Interesting question. I used to record rather dry for some time. Just the stack and add the necessary effects rather in the DAW later on. Now more and more I want the sounds 'composed' with the Kemper also in my mix. So I tend to record the full stereo effects with the stack and was thinking of going even one step further - as you describe it above.


    Keen to hear what the professionals say and would assume there is no wrong and no right. Anyway effects in the Kemper are so good that they enrich the mix usually a lot.

    I would do it this way, too, and it was an easier decision to do so before the verbs and delays got upgraded. Always trying to strike that balance between the vibe of the performance and what will shine in the mix.

    Curious to know what everyone does in regards to recording tones that have delay and or reverb. Does anyone have success stories in recording the mono dry and stereo Dly/Verb? does it sound natural in the mix if later I want to adjust the levels of the delay on the separate stereo track this would give me?

    Hey, question maybe you all can quickly answer. Just installed Toast and it's working great! One small issue I cannot seem to figure out. When in the Browse screen for delay, i get my full list of "FX Preset Browse" but selecting different presets doesn't seem to change the FX type or any settings?
