That may have more to do with your preamp tubes actually.

Nice collection, I like your Moms McHouse. When do you take your first guitar lesson?

>more to do with your preamp tubes
yes, i should've specified which ones needed breaking in.

>im just pretending to be retarded.

I'll have you know I have mastered kakapicking years ago, thank you very much

Now this I don't doubt.

>footfags
the day of the sock will be upon us soon

Couldn't tell you, I replaced them all on both amps around the same time and noticed the slight harshness wore off after 6 months or so. The ac15 combo is played more, but the ac30 is played a lot louder so I think they wore in at around the same rate

Could all be memes though, maybe I have just gotten used to it.

no i was being honest, user.
power tubes need very little time to be broken in.
usually the 12ax7 needs a bit of time.

Stockings ftw

did you change your strings in the 6 months?

Powertubes break in as well but when ot comes to some tonal coloring like warmth or shrill highs the preamps play a big part. Sometimes in high gain amps people use nos vintage tubes in the preamp

Probably like paper and ink

I know there's /prod/ for this but I wanted to ask my fellow fa/gg/ots first: I want to go through the motions of producing a track, just something stupidly simple like a 4 chord progression with some homemade percussion. What do you recommend for something so basic?

I'm gonna download a recording and playback app or something (maybe 'looper' is the word I'm looking for) so I can prototype stuff and jam with myself, but if anyone has any relevant advice please offer it

Well im talking about the bullet truss rod. Its the headstocks clit and you command the guitar thus you ARE THE CLIT COMMANDER.
if thats still too hard it means i recognize that you have a 70s style strat

record the guitar part twice as mono tracks, pan them left and right.

Just by a bit because depressing it fully wont lower it til the strings are slacked out..im thinking of acquiring a short trem arm but idk if they have any that fit Am pros trem.

ooook

>record the guitar part twice as mono tracks, pan them left and right.

can you rephrase all that like you're talking to someone that only knows 4 chords and nothing else about music pls

yes, that will show up in cakewalk once you have it installed.
>can you rephrase
guitar signals are in mono, not stereo.
if you record them in stereo they will have phasing issues and sound washed out.
you can however record in stereo and convert the track to mono.
however,
you need to record the same guitar part twice, once for each speaker, pan the audio for one track left, the audio for the other track right.
then you will have a nice sound representation come through your speakers of your recording.

hpf = high-pass filter.
set it at 103 hz to cut off all frequencies below 103 hz.
everything below 103 hz for guitar tracks is just useless rumble.

don't know.
is downloading cakewalk going to suddenly make you start practicing?

latency issues are pretty much non-existent in this day and age because of the cpu's being multicore.
you'll probably have less than 10 msec of latency which will mean nothing as long as you can hear the click from your recording software.

Yes it is,boomers are literally unable to play their instruments if it isnt the most expensive one they can afford

are you dual-micing?
the 2i2 is a great interface for the price.
what cpu did you put in your computer?

Seems to be straight forward to me.

Yeah latency issues don't matter much at your playing level, what difference will timing make in your recordings when you can't play to begin with?

I actually like modern AC30s and even the AC30VR when i’m jamming. They’re solid. I don’t find them particularly versatile though, and i’d never use it as my main amp.

That being said, i run a 69 Marshall Major and there’s a 60s ac30 at the studio i’m tracking at soon. I might combine them to see how they sound. Marshall clean, vox driven.

$300 pickup? Retarded.
$300 set? Steep, but reasonable.

Cheers to being happy with whatever you play, as expensive or as cheap it is.
Just because playing it is the real biz

HSH or HHH for 300 seems reasonable, HH not so much

Is it any good? where’d you get it?
looks pretty neat

I see on amazon they have cheap acoustic guitars for about $60-70 that come with books, cases, picks, etc but are they any good? if my goal is to eventually write metal music should i start with electric or acoustic?

sorry if i asked too much i just really wanna learn how to play and this board is the only place i feel i can ask a question and get a quick reply

>Get cheap guitar
>Get cheap interface, pirate reaper, amplitube, helix native, overloud th-u, band in a box and easydrummer
>Start having fun jamming and recording
I don't really see the point of forcing yourself to start/go somewhere, just let it flow, learn as much as you can while having fun

What does that have to do with your comment and it's association to the post you quoted?

Start with electric if your goal is metal, go for Troy Stetinas Metal Lead and Rhythm guitar books, they go from really basics, especially the rhythm vol 1. No need to go for justinguitar

Its just that i dont know where to start. I want to make guitar music obviously but i also want to make industrial electronic music. Alright imma get a scarlett 2i2 asap. And a microphone. Can i plug in my amps straight into the interface? Pic related 1/2

>Troy Stetinas Metal Lead
thank you ill go look for the pdf of this now. is the best choice for electric guitar something in the $200+ price range?

Used korean dean

>But whats the best option for an early guitar?
Yahama Pacifica or Jackson Dinky.

cheap acoustic guitars for about $60-70 that come with books, cases, picks, etc but are they any good?
No, the quality of the acoustics is notably shit and they aren't built to last; buy a Fender or Ibanez acoustic for around $300 new or go used if that's beyond your price range. The picks are fine, you won't need to worry about any specific type until your playing has advanced quite a bit. The books are all pretty standard beginner stuff; go through one with a teacher for a few weeks to help digest everything and that will get you off to a better start.

if my goal is to eventually write metal music should i start with electric or acoustic?
Electric.

Pic 2/2.
Can these go straight to interface and then cab emulation?

You should use the phono out into the interface and use a cab sim, or mic your cab. Under no circumstances use the cab out into your interface, you will fry it.
If you're just starting guitar, don't focus only on the lead book, you'll be playing rhythm most of the time, also that one goes over the basics you would find on justin guitar on the first pages.
Also, if you can read Italian, go for Giacomo Castellano's Metodo per chitarra heavy metal.
Go for a hss squier

No. Use the line outs. And you need to always be hooked up to a cab or you could damage your head.

Ok i thought as much. I wanted to cab them anyways. Fuck im excited dudes.

FIRST ALBUM WILL BE CALLED MARIONETTE AND IT WILL BE AN EMO ALBUM.

thanks ill make sure to look at both the book and the justin guitar page then any other good recs for beginners?

i know none of these brands are the ones you guys recommend but i dont have an amp yet and these amazon packages have a guitar and amp and some are under $100 do you guys think ill be wasting my money if i start with one of these then save for a $300 guitar?

The Davison *could* be a bit better. Assuming they invested a bit more in the actual manufacturing of the guitar offering a single pickup instead of 3 shitty ones. But at that price range not much I can say.

There's more but if any of the above describes you then you need to move on to a more suitable hobby like playing videogames or something similar. You're doing a disservice to the instrument and music in general by insisting on engaging in a pursuit you don't have the emotional or intellectual capacity for.

How do you know its not? Pro tip it was me and i know how to sweep. The secret is starting slowly and making sure you hit every note for equal lengths of time.

kek this always gets them riled up

lol you can sweep? a floor maybe

The difference is, I didn't say it wasn't

>making jokes about Mexican custodians
Das raciss mane

Fact: after i posted a vocaroo of fast consecutive sweeps somone decided to birth the pink suhr persona as a shredder and uploaded ripped audio as a vocaroo. Thats proof enough if i got under that fags skin.

Let him maybe one day he will make a funny joke for once.

No dog in this fight but you're delusional if you think you can actually sweep pick. Pink Suhr? Blue Jem? Yes. You? Not in a million years. You just sound ridiculous trying to make that claim when it's painfully obvious you're nowhere near that skill level.

I play music mostly as a hobby and the only one that applies to me in this case is that I do upload shit to Youtube wtf.
It's still just a hobby user no need to call people names cause of what they do with their chinese shitplanks.
