I've done some work on getting some metal tone from my guitar. Here is a sample:

Wow. I must admit, you have opened my eyes (ears?).
I set my chain of VSTs to a boosted SoloC. I tried putting more power into my right hand movements. Is this going in the right direction? It definitely sounds better than previous gentle strikes. Obviously, long hours of practice are needed. https://soundcloud.com/adampolomski/distorted2 I also allowed myself to peek into Sam's mixing thread and compared my bare guitar signal to the one you posted. I noticed that my signal (lower track) gets muted very quickly after the initial punch. Yours looks completely different. It also sounds way better on the same VST setup. Would that rather be poor technique or gear ... or both? I record via PreSonus Audiobox. Could it be a problem with the guitar then? |

playing doesn''t sound the way You like. Try to chalange LeXTAC. You will hear how the tone gets muddy and overcompresse on the highe gain settings. Try to lower the gain, find the angle and try to make sound good without that booster. This is only for exercises purpose...As I sad...We can use any amp sim if it fits the mix but we need to try some harder amps for practicing so You could feel very comfortable on those, who are simplier to play Is that any good?

Great! Now let's try to add a bit more gain to see how it works. This one should handle more gain while keeping the clarity

We should work a bit on Your right hand - try to make more equal, maybe a bit wider movements to get better timming with those 16th notes
