[quote author="living sounds"]Channel one sounds high end. Great, really! Are the MXLs modded or stock?[/quote]
The mics are stock.
[quote author="seavote"]both sound good? channel one seems more transparent. imho channel two seems "more tubey", more character, i like it better, in song context who knows?[/quote]
yeah they are both pretty good aren't they.
I could go on and on about the sound of the guitar itself, but I am biased, I am it's familiar. Also the 603's really take to that instrument in a nice way.
I'll post some more tests as things come in for me to try out. Need to get some tubes and I will also try MC33078's too. I will more closely follow buttachunks recipe in my single MP. Thank you butta for posting this, inspired me to try something with the MP's.
If you haven't listened and want to hear it "blind" don't look at what's below... :wink:
channel 2 is the modded one. It's great some picked channel 1 as the best, it's so easy for me to like the modded one just because I know I'm "supposed" to lol. Good to get that perspective. I do like both, but knowing what the guitar really is like, I think channel 2 is closer to the source, or at least as I hear it. In channel one the midrange is a little more agressive, which accentuates the harmonics I played in a nice way. The bass seems more focused in channel 2 to me, which I like.
