Banana Orange Smoothie - G&L Fallout and Comanche Improvisation

in Music2 years ago (edited)

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


Here's a progressive hard rock style improvisation on my G&L Fallout and Comanche. The fallout's Seymore Duncan bridge humbucker pickup is great for drop d tuning and heavy chunk rhythm. The comanche's z3 coils are good for higher clean lead tones. For drums I used the progressive ezx in EZ Drummer with the tubby lubby setting and some compression and widening effects on it. The guitar effects were done in Bias FX2 with a subtle ambient track on the Comanche using Guitar Rig 6. I would have posted this for #straturday but missed the deadline by a day. Thanks for listening :-)

Sounds as good on Sunday 😉 And looks amazing 🤩

I think the color of the fallout was based of some sort of muscle car, they had a whole series of those colors sometime around 2015.

Excellent! I loved the way the clean guitar sat over the crunch!

Thanks for listening :-) for the clean guitar I used an orange amp simulator with some bpm aligned delay and a touch of reverb. Then I duplicated that track and put a really ambient guitar rig 6 setting on it and dropped the volume quite a bit just to fill up the space in between the notes.

It was a great sound. Bias FX did you say in the post? It is a great thing. I have it but haven't fiddled with it too much. Ireally should when I find the time

Bias fx is amazing. To get a decent distortion sound though I have some additional plugins added onto it to break up the fizz a bit better. Compared to say amplitube or guitar rig bias fx is way better. Plus they have that guitar match system thing where you can make your guitar eq'd to famous guitars after you run through a few audio tests in the program.

Yeah, I tried the guitar match thing and I was impressed. I have rubbish laptop though and it took me a long time to faff around to try and get the latency down.

Fortunately I had ordered a Spark a while before getting bias FX and it came and I have been playing it like mad ever since!

Aha yeah if not enough processing power it can be a resource hog. Maybe use spark as the no latency monitor then get a cheap splitter cable to run to the laptop for a clean signal to reamp later.

That's a very good idea actually!! Cheers!
