Just foolin' around. I'm not really a huge Linkin' Park fan but the song is easy to do and I wanted to try out my new mic. It's a Snowball by Blue Microphones. I'm still not sure how to get decent sound of it. My recording software is HP Quickplay. If anyone has any tips/strategies on getting a better sound, please let me know!

  • You play really well and the guitar sounds amazing. Did you mic your amp for this recording? 

  • @GauravTMusic Thanks a lot! Yup. the mic was placed to the edge of the speaker I think in this recording.

  • so what kind of distortion to you use?

  • This was the stock distortion on the Vox AD30VT modelling amp. I believe the amp model I used on this one was the Numetal setting or something like that. I've recently upgraded to the newer VT50 model and hopefully will make something using that in the near future. Sounds loads better.

  • there's a free audio recording program call Audacity. I highly recommend it. very easy to use and easy to edit with.

    I use it to record different things and then i use Cubase to set eqs on the separate tracks and effects.

    The mic sounds great. I've been throwing around the idea of getting one myself. Also the position of the mic and the speaker of your amp can effect the sound. i recomend just playing around with different positions til you find what you like.

  • Sorry for the VERY delayed response. Been real busy with school. I have Audacity and have used it quite frequently, however, it doesn't record videos and I'm left with whatever Quickplay picks up. That is unless Audacity can edit the sound in a video and I was unaware this whole time.
