bats brew Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 https://batsbrew.bandcamp.com/track/first-tracks from the album "Stay" thinkin' about the 1st powder day to come.... "First Tracks" Sun is shining through the trees, Diamond dust is everywhere Cold air tastes just like a breeze In the desert solitaire Now I’m standing at the edge, Pulling down like gravity Champagne powder and the butterflies, Falling so happily First Tracks, Cold Thrill, Wind and Tree Big Grin, Addict’s mind, Follow me. Suddenly I can see Wide open fields below, Speed is my friend Where I want to go Straight down the sun will shine, It will carry me Down the spine, Stone Free. Pillow drift and butterflies, Champagne on ice Cold smoke can dry your eyes, Knee deep is so nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmarlowe Posted Saturday at 05:17 AM Share Posted Saturday at 05:17 AM (edited) I listened and it sounds awesome. Your selection of of differing left/right distortion tones at the start go together really well. I usually struggle to achieve that.

I usually struggle to achieve that. hey bmarlowe! thanks for listening to my thing here... yes, those guitars, are the same guitars, but different amp /cab / mic setups. plus, i've got two different drive pedals i used, to get those different sounding rhythms and solos left and right. often times i'll hard pan them, but depending on the drum track, and how wide that gets mixed, i might bring those left/right elements in tighter. i try to do a headphone mix, and a monitor mix, and split the difference in the panning between them. some things in headphones just sound downright weird hard panned.

bmarlowe Posted Monday at 11:21 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:21 PM bats brew - Thx much for the details. I noticed the Direct Drive SS on your pedalboard. Impressive sounding on youTube videos I may get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressive sounding on youTube videos I may get one. that direct drive is awesome. it can do tube screamer type duty, and a whole lot more. i can even be 'anti' tube screamer. it's british sounding, and marries with my boogie well. i bought it right after hurricane katrina. but that particular model, is the SUPER SPORT. on barber's web page, they do the new version of the direct drive by incorporating all the different version into one. a super deal. https://www.barberelectronics.com/gain_changer-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
