"Walked Away", hard rocker with swagger

recorded with a mesa boogie mark2b 60 watt head thru a pair of 1x12 cabs, avatar vintage closed back with celestion heritage g12h, and a roland closed back cab with a celestion G12-c30, kinda rare speaker.
the guitar tracks are combinations of captures from a Palmer PDI-09, and room mics.

here is another song that i am trying to study to see how it translates into headphones.

this is a song off of my last album "The Time is Magic"
i'm working on a followup album now, and i'm changing some of methodology of mixing to more suit headphone translation.

for the record: i do NOT mix on headphones.
the things i'm more focused on, are phase issues, drum panning and low end translation.

any help or comments on these items are appreciated.

Good job on the tune. I like the song and playing. Will listen again from home with better headphones and comment more on tones.

last bump before this one is gone...

Rad tune dude! That's a gnarly tone from the Mark II. I didn't know they could get that angry.

What can I say? I just love this freakin' song, man. Really. It might be my all time favorite internet song. Are you singing too?
Excellent job.

hey ryjan
thanks for checking it out.....
yes, the ole mark2b can grind molars when it want to.
LOL

some of that tone, is straight, some is tweaked with either a Barber Direct Drive Super Sport, or a Barber Tone Press.



barfly

'cept for the drums.
