Experimenting
Tone Test June/July 2022
As you can maybe glean from my mildly accurate pointing, the setup for this was having the Guitar Pro notation on my left, and the Pro Tools recording session above the camera.
Current Mix:
Single tracked guitars, multiple tones (3 distorted and 2 clean with FX)
Neural DSP Archetype Gojira
2 Lead synths and 1 bass synth
EZ Drummer
Kick/Snare Samples to fatten the drums

Development Diary
This started with just MIDI instruments to see if it was a contender for the portfolio. After having a good deal of fun on the first couple of tests, it was time to add a decent amp modeller for Test 3 - Neural DSP Archetype Gojira. Since then, the development of the other metal tracks (Deified and Origami Samurai) have unearthed other useful production techniques that have been implemented into the 4th test where I added a new guitar melody as well as automating the synth's cutoff during the intro for a more atmospheric feel. A thunder drum is waiting in the wings for the final version.
