1 question kinda off topic, the roland daisy chains how do you actually use them ? 1 end is input and then the other is the output right?because im planning on buying one and i wasnt sure what the hell it is ; o
metallica DOESN'T USE FUCKING PEDALS (except ride the lightning, but they used FUCKING TUBESCREAMERS.) and this is NOT EVEN CLOSE.... hey if you want metallica tone, get yourself 8 fucking mesa boogie mark II's and a marshall 1960 cabs and put them in a room in the shape of an arc. then place 8 mics to each cab carefully. then youll get that ''fantastic and gritty'' tone. metal zone is the most horrible pedal on the market...
@wewocewslaysemos it's called improvisation. it's like you need to be operated in the hospital but there are no tools needed to operate, what does the doctor do, complain while the person is dying?
Get IK Multimedia Amplitube 3 w/ custom shop feuture. That got all sorts of amp and effects models, including Mesa Boogie like and Diezel etc etc. That garanteed to get ya all sorts of tones man, and it sounds bloody fantastic. Better then Line 6.
Dude, stop making these videos,you're embarassing yourself. This sounds nothing like metallica, it's horribly fizzy and thin. This is the thrif video I've ssen from you, and you always miss the ball by a mile!
Not even close. Mesa Mark II, Mesa Rectifier & Diezel amps. If you can't afford those amps get a line 6, problem solved. With a line 6 u can get all those amp sounds plus classic marshall & fender amp sounds. But with the ability to record your guitar signal with NO noise, & a better all-around tone. Your setup is noisy. Does Marshall even have a quiet amp? I've owned a JCM-2000 DSL Super Lead & the last two MG series solid-state marshall amps. I ditched "old-gold" and a bought a Spider IV.
I guess that's you. I personally find the Spider series to be completely unable to get me what I want. It's too fizzy for me usually on higher gain settings, and I need fizziness to not exist.
why does everytime he turn on a pedal in his video he gets feedback? seriously I have a long pedal board and I dont get this much feedback unless I'm using my Boss Feedbacker.
@TheHuMoCa James runs his diezel vh4 into a boogie cab, kirk runs his signature Randall into a boogie cab live, back in the 80's when they started out it was Marshall plexi>>>>>Tube screamer, does anyone else have questions?
@metalshredder14 best advice i can give u is just save your money and dont waste it on pedals like the metalzone trying to emulate the sound of a tube amp !
i did this for years and ended up with a whole heap of shit pedals and guitars and amps !
than i sold it all and bought what i really wanted.
where as if i just saved in the first place i wouldnt of had to go through all that crap !
the easiest way to get their tone is get a line 6 spider 3 or spider 4 amp with at least 75 watts and use the master of puppets setting, or the for whom the bell tolls setting with a humbucker guitar. sounds way better than this lol
@finsmi True. But they did use pedals for at least the first couple of albums. Unfortunately not everyone can afford a tube amp, or even a good solid state, so the pedals are the best they're gonna do in their room with their 15 watt practice amp
They key to getting the metallica tone is NOT using a bunch of stomp boxes. They use Mesas with the EQ scooped on the early stuff. If you can't afford to buy a Mesa Head (or any large amps/good heads) Just get a 15 watt practice amp with a lot of gain (ie Peavey Vyper, Marshall MG) and scoop your mids. Although not perfect, you'll get a lot closer than using a bunch of stupid pedals.
no, just no....i can get closer with my line 6 spider 3 15 watt amp and an ltd ec-1000....... not near enough gain and the guitar your using has pick ups that dont have enough output
dont understand why these homos are saying this doesnt sound like Metallica. First, Enter Sandman and pretty much the whole Black Album has lower gain than their other albums. Second, this is for poor people, these pedals and a decent clean tone amp would only cost around $250. Mesa Boogies and Marshalls cost people their buttholes. This is really close to Enter sandman tone.
But anyway Id go with a vypyr 30(I have it), I got a decent Enter Sandman tone out of it and its only $200.
lame!!! if you want metallca tone you have to use a marshall halfstack or if you dont have money for a marshal of a mesa boogie or rack effects buy a line 6 pod x3 live(because metallica uses xt pro and the only difference is that the rack is mounted in a flor board) or a boss gt 10. or an easyer idea buy a digitech distorsion factory and a delay pedal, tweak them and plug them into a mixer and speakers.
It's for people who don't have the money to buy a Mesa Triple Rec or Dual Rec, sure with the metal zone you can get a bit closer than what he has on the video but it's never going to be exact unless you have a Mesa with an EXP with active EMG pickups
@meah941 they really dont, use much more gain than that, its more a matter of that tone, being layered across 5-6 tracks on protools. most classic metal songs, in recording, arent as gain saturated as they sound, you build that big sound up with with layers of multiple tracks.
to get the metallica tone you cant use pedals, its all amp distortion kirk only uses a tube screamer for his leads the rest is from the amp, a pedal can only go so far
I have the best tone! whoever is interested, just ask me in my channel so I tell you step by step, really i swear it's the best tone ever, but you need a marshall mgdfx, that's the only problem.
Well, you're right, but I guess everyone (?) knows that : i may be completely wrong, but i think the video's purpose is to propose to try to achieve a decent and, non expensive way to approach metallica's tone . But i think that the most common mistake people do (mostly beginners) is to use way too much gain on their setting . I've always seen hetfield's tone as a "big crunch" , chuggy and with this typical "cut" you can't have with high gain , wich tends to "liquify" the sound .
@artofmixing You sound like a douchebag. No one wants the hassle of signing up to a new website just to find out your shitty settings. Give it up or don't make the stupid videos.
Laughed my ass off as soon as I saw the metal zone.

Put the low - tone to full and the high tone to 3/4
Distortion to 3/4

And you'll get metallica sound
