In this video I show to you how you can easily get a really nice aggressive guitar metal tone out of freeware VST plugins.
I use this plugin composition on many of my productions (To Punish And Enslave, Devil's Kitchen etc.), sometimes with ReCabinet 3 instead of the GuitarHack impulses.

If you need a gate in front of the distortion go for the GGate plugin from the free GVST-Bundle. You can find it here:

Have fun with this great pieces of software!

  • This is by far the best sound I've heard from ANY tutorial on achieving metal tone using amp simulators and plugins. Such epic technique!

  • @ResolutionForRemedy Thx dude... better one coming soon ;)

  • did you play the guitar actualy or used a computer preset?

  • @Dragonkudu Sure I played it... that's my song "To Punish And Enslave" :)

  • can you use these in protools?

    downloaded and added to the plugins folder but cant find them in protools.

    any help would be awesome!

    cheers

  • @spessmehren10 Er.... don't know... I don't use mac. Does ProTools work with VST? Isn't it this RTAS thingy....
