[bonghits]

Nice tone and awesome playing! APC, huh?! Might need to check em out.

[AdRock]

Man, you've got Friedman's style down pat in that clip. Very nice.

[Sinistas]

Shit. I wish I could get that tone out of my vamp! haha

[sevser]

No shit...My V-Amp 2 didn't sound that good either! ....hmmm...Would the playing have somthin to do with that, I wonder? haha!

Great playing Gilbert!

[Mordor]

Nice clip man. And your playing is top notch!

[bibz]

That sounds amazing!

Spill the beans on the rest of the setup dude, what amp you simming? what soundcard you using? I have a slsmg/v-amp pro setup that sounds good....but not that good! and to think I was gonna emg up the slsmg, will have to investigate these 'apc's'

[Gilbert]

Wow, thanks again for all the great compliments guys!

I recorded direct to the pc using my Sound Blaster Audigy 2 sound card which has the external I/O box. I used Cubasis VST 4 (which came with the sound card) for recording the tracks (at 24 bit).

The settings I used on the V-amp:
Rhythm tracks
Model: Modern high gain
Drive:1
Cabinet: 15
Gain: 1 o'clock
Treble: 1 o'clock
Presence: 1 o'clock
Mid: 2 o'clock
Bass: 10 o'clock
reverb: type 2 at about 9-10 o'clock (even though the reverb isn't very audible at this low of a setting, it makes rhythms sound a little warmer)

Lead
Same settings except for...
Mids: around 2-3 o'clock
Bass: 12 o'clock
Reverb: 10-11 o'clock

[Sinistas]

Gilbert - I forgot to thank you for posting those settings. I kept the EQs but switched some of the amp settings around, and it sounds awesome.

V-amp settings noted, now I just have to learn to play. LOL

Hey yeah! I got a chance to check those out and massive tone dude! I usually go for maximum-extreme, this is a much nicer sounding patch!
