Description

Sweet spots on a friend's Matchless Lightning 15 he brought over right from the shop being serviced. Include 5 captures. Clean, Crunch, Dimed, AltRock without Pedal, AltRock with a TS808. You can dial in a good breakup sound by varying your input knob. I’ll need to revisit this sometime to get more captures since I need more cleans! All my captures are made by dialing the tone in with guitars running through the exact same signal path that the capture is done through, so things *should* sound exactly how I heard them when dialing them in through my control room. The only knob you may need to mess with (if at all) is the Input knob in NAM. Please don’t contact me asking about specific voltages, levels, what brand of cables I used, the percentage of humidity in the room at the time of capture, what time the sun set this evening, etc. as it doesn’t matter to my ear so long as the sounds are dialed in consistently between “playthrough” and “capture”. The only thing I will say to consider is to shoot for -10db in your DAW, but depending on guitar you may need to range between -8 and -12.
