Hey,

I found this competition on the ultimate metal board: Guitar Tone Competition

It seems to be a pretty cool idea for a competition, you get a drum(+bass) track and 2 DI Tracks(Guitar L + R). The Rules are listed in the link above.

It would be cool when some guys from GMC would enter the competition aswell, I am in for sure. The winner gets a high quality slate plugin set, but there is an instructional purpose as well. Signal and fx chains will be posted so you can comprehend how the people did create the amazing tones.

best luck and regards,
Skalde

where is the bt xD can't find it

Nice competition, would like to participate but don't have time. Perhaps we can organize something similar here on GMC as well!

I like this idea! Maybe you can forward the suggeustion to AudioP (Paal). It would be a great learning experience for all of us.

Will do, good idea

I would go for it, if it wasn't shared how I did it. Don't wanna be selfish, but if people like it, and start copying it, it starts to get less original. Even though my tone is a bit copied from someone else, I had to learn to achieve it, and be concious of what I use. To supply that is just a cheap way of people going for the copy without thinking about it. Either don't do that, or suggest some tips for people to achieve those tones and they can find the rest for themselves.

So you don't like tabs as well?

If you use them to learn a song without even trying to learn it by ear, than no.

This sounds like a pretty good idea for competition if we realize something similar at GMC!

Mixing and production competition!

Skalde told me about this one (and thanks to Ivan for reminding me)
Look like a great future competiton idea for sure!

I'll keep it in mind

Thanks Paal

Hey rated, i wouldn't care about that, some time ago a realized that even if you got piece by piece the same rig and settings as other guitar player, you will never sound the same, it's all in the hands man, don't worry about people trying to imitate you, if they are trying is because you are good

This could be a very helpful competition for many to watch even,

how to mix and produce a particular song or solo,
