Milan Polak T-Rex Competition, Yngtchie's take

My contribution to the Milan Polak T-Rex Competition. This was a first-take recording that I figured was good enough to upload, tho the competition is fierce.. My timing's a bit all over the place, but let's just say that it was intentional and leave it at that. ;-P

Hope you enjoy.

Great tone AND playing, dude. Mind sharing the settings you used to get that kinda tone?

[YngtchieMusic]

Not at all. It's a Mesa/Boogie Quad going directly into a Line 6 Toneport UX2. The settings are as follows:

Volume: 10*

Treble: 10*

Bass: 0*

Middle: 0*

Master: 7

Lead Drive: 2

Lead Master: 10*

This is all on the Lead 2 channel, and the * means that the knob is pulled out. I've got the output on 10, adjusting the volume on my computer. On the Toneport, I'm using the 2x12 2001 Line 6 cab model, no amp model, and I recorded the whole shebang using good old Adobe Audition 1.5.

Hope this helps.

wow man another great solo... you need to post these in response to the main video!

[YngtchieMusic]

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for the heads-up! :)

[jjpistols]

that is fantastic, but I'm a bit disappointed to find your fretboard to be unscalloped ;)

[YngtchieMusic]

Ah, I don't think I'd dare to do something that extreme to my darling Ruokangas, so I must disappoint those who expect it due to my moniker. :o

Thanks for checking out the vid.

[vladguitar]

Nice entry,man! Good phrasing and stuff...

Best of luck...

[MilanPolak]

nice solo, thx for joining! Don't forget to rate...! ;-)

[YngtchieMusic]

Haha, thanks, but I thought yours was fine. I just wish you'd have recorded it direct, as it usually sounds a bit dull when it's recorded through a webcam mic or similar.

I do my video and audio separately, and then synchronize the two in Windows Movie Maker. The program's a bit crap, but it's the only one I know of.

I run the guitar into my Mesa Quad preamp, which goes to the Line 6 Toneport UX2, and then into the computer. Means that I don't have to worry about disturbing the neighbors. :)
