Some tasty guitar licks to be sure. Maybe you could discuss your choice of amps and cabs?
Modo bass, interesting...
Just a slight crit on the drums (SD3 and EZD2 here as well), I love some "beater click" to give
that kick some definition, but you might have it just a tad overdone, or not.
Overall , thumbs up John.

Old Timer, you're not mocking me? I kid, I kid!!

We've reviewed I still don't know; right? MODO on that one too?

Hi Tom,

Thanks a lot for listening

Old Timer isn't mocking you, or me for that matter - I got an old stratocaster and this was it's initial outing (for me)

I use mostly S-Gear's Wayfarer or Mercuriall ReAxis for (software) amps, and then I bypass the speakers and use Torpedo Wall of Sound for my speaker sim. Lateley I've been using Celestion V30s for almost everything and occassionally a 2 x 12 cab with Celestion Blue Alnicos.

I've beem using MODO bass for a little while now (replaced Trilian) and I really like it.

"I still don't know" is really old. I updated it a little, but most of it is original including Superior 1 drums, and the bass was maybe the Spectrasonics one before Trilian (Trilogy?) But to be honest, I can't remember - it's all bounced, so I just kept it as it (redid eq, compressor, console emulator etc)

re: SD3 drums - I guess I like beater click even more than you do

Anyway - thanks again for taking the time to listen
