I can't seem to nail the sound in my GX. When I get it close, it sounds very thin and tin-like.

Thanks!!

Of course mate, here you are. I used some EQing and plugins in Nuendo as well, just added 3dB boost on 100Hz, and a puncher VST.

It's a sort of a compression plugin for Steinberg. It is not needed, but I used it on this collab a bit to accent the guitars sound in the mix. It is normally used as a mastering plug to give a bit of punch to the overall mix, but I use it on the guitars sometimes as well. This is why some of the notes are "jumping" out of the mix and it creates a certain dynamic feel to it, that cannot be normally be accomplished when using digital modelers.

The EQ, stands for equalizer. As many presets sound a bit thinner when recorded from Gearbox, it is good to raise the 100Hz a bit to give it a bit more low end. This doesn't work always, but since I didn't have any other instruments there (bass guitar was a bit lower and also the kick), so I could raise it a bit - by 3dB.
