Megadeth - Hangar 18 (cover) (old)

NEW COVER: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJbePPf0YjE

I've always enjoyed this song, both listening to it and playing it. Megadeth are amazingly innovative on Rust in Peace, and this song is one of the best. Mustaine's riffs are always great, so are Marty Friedman's solos. Now I've finally made a cover of it, it took about four days but it was definitely worth it!

Recorded the 28th of April - 1st of May 2009 using a Pentax Optio M30 regular digital camera. Edited using Magix Music Maker 10 Deluxe and streamed as a 640x480 resolution Windows Media Video with 25 fps.
Drums recorded in the first ten days of May 2009, using a cheap mixer, JJLabs microphones, and Peace drums with one Zildjian Planet Z-cymbal (right) and one Sabian B8 16" rock crash (left).

Guitar: Washburn X16 G13 (with EMG 81/85).
Amplifier: Peavey 6505+ and an Ashdown Peacemaker 412A cabinet with Celestion G12E-50 speakers.

Settings:

Lead channel:
Pre: 8

Mid: 1,5
High: 8
Post: 0.7
Resonance: 10
Presence: 10

Strings: D'Addario Nickel Wound .009-.042

Can I barely hear vocals? Or is it because I've heard this soxng so much?

[SwedishBerzerker]

@ventor11225 The original track is in the background, so it's not your imagination. :)

[sonnic1995]

how did you do to put those video "windows" i dont know the name of that "efect: and my english sucks xD

[SwedishBerzerker]

@sonnic1995 It's usually called "picture-in-picture". Put two videos onto each other in a video editor and move/resize the upper one, simple.

Awesome! How many time to learn all the solos?

[SwedishBerzerker]

Thanks, but you'll enjoy my new cover even more :D

I usually learn one solo every day, so approx. one hour for each solo.

[sonnic1995]

@SwedishBerzerker how did you learn the sweep picking? i cant do that with my amp, with my friend's amp i can do, but not so good

[mlong810]

[Thompaam]

Hopefully it'll be better than the first time.
