But this will fix an already OK sounding DI. If anyone here has problems with making their DI's sound brighter 1. change your strings 2. change your strings 3. clean your strings WITH DISH SOAP, I REPEAT, DISH SOAP. BOILING YOUR STRINGS ONLY WORKS FOR BASS, NOT GUITARS. 4. put a high shelf above 7k, because you want the air that new guitar strings have as generally if you boost a bit lower you will start boosting some quack and glassiness (unless that is what you want 5. if your guitar sounds bright but the decay is immediate, destroy your signal with compression and mix that in with the dry signal. 6. if you have too much noise with the 5th trick, use a low latency multiband compressor separating your low end, mid and high end as to only compress your low end for sustain 7. If your noisegate is still trash and let's a fuck load of noise when you stop playing, use an 'spectral' noise gate that detects your noise by analyzing your signal.

With the intention that I'd yield a much better sounding clean & crispy clean tone, I more or less implemented this same tactic to my DI signal by using the Pawn Shop Compressor! This particular comp plugin also offers the ability to further alter the timbre by changing the 'component materials', like the transformer & resistor metal types, along with adjusting the voltage bias and output! Man... doing all that prior to hitting a Neural DSP sim resulted in precisely the type of harmonically rich, and compressed clean gtr tone I was after, while still keeping processor consumption to a minimum!

@Silverjerk3 жыл бұрын
Not your ears, just very subjective. I prefer the octave effect; it gave the track some body and subtly changed the character, making it a bit darker without, say, shifting the entire guitar track back an octave -- I've seen engineers do this to try and emulate 7 or 8 string guitars when the original recording was made with a non-baritone 6-string. Unfortunately, something just gets missed and you're never going to get the same tone, attack, and character you'd get from having a real 7-string. That's not to say a 6-string can't sound heavy as fuck, just that it's hard to get it all the way there in the DAW. This trick does add some umph that just wasn't there before, and I liked the effect.

I use Focusrite Control to route my first two outputs through my third output, which feeds into my reamp box. I use the output preset in Focusrite Control called System Playback. This way I'm able to channel my stems through my reamp box but the problem is that I have to solo the stem Channel in Reaper and mute the monitor in my miced channels, otherwise the entire mix comes out of the reamp box and out of my speakers.
