Hello folks,

Please take a listen to this file, no need to think about the playing, I was just throwing some ideas around but how can I make the guitar sound better in the mix?

Pictures of settings are below, the "Mid Edge" knob on the Hotbird is switched on and it gives + 7db (6db/oct) from 300 to 2.5K Hz (Whatever that means but that's what the bloke who made it said smile.gif ). Only the knobs without the circle around them are in use. The clipping is set to amber, this gives "soft symmetrical clipping, for a particularly impressive distortion with a noticeable volume increase compared to other clipping, and extremely dynamic from which it is possible to obtain overdrive sounds". Bass lift/boost is off and it is in the vintage setting.

Thanks for your help folks, I'm away for four days from tomorrow so you have plenty of time to ponder smile.gif

Cheers, I really appreciate your help and guidance smile.gif
