[@jonathanonfire]

Holy shit. How do you achieve that massive tone? 😍

[@zizizmer]

Hey thanks man I appreciate it a lot!!🙏 I’m no expert on mixing but I’m trying to get better with each video, the thing I’ve realised is that controlling your low end so that it’s not too muddy or flumpy is real important so that it doesn’t mask the definition and tightness! But don’t overdo it otherwise the guitars become thin. I hope this helps bro😊

What is that technique at 1:58 with the guitar called? That unique sound, i hear it everywhere

[@zizizmer]

Hey man I don’t know the real name of it but it’s when you bar all strings on a harmonic fret ( in the song it was the 3rd fret ) and you do a backwards sweep, it sounds really cool!😝

no worries man expected that haha, appreciate it fr fr!!! magnificent playing and magnificent tone, blast em up champ 🙏

[@jacques_laconic7091]

So sick 👌🌡what software did you use to remove guitar from the original track?

[@zizizmer]

Thanks so much man I really do appreciate it🙏 I use: Moises. It’s pretty good for what it does, just be careful not to remove too much drums / vocals because it’ll start to affect the overall quality of the track😊

[@ANON0923]

maybe its just me, or the camera angle. but why does that ibanez look so small

[@zizizmer]

You’ve got a solid point there, I never really noticed until now but you’re right😂

@@zizizmer Solid playthrough nonetheless !

[@zizizmer]

I appreciate that man, thank you🙏

[@devinm2053]

that was speedy. i swear i need to just get a 7 string again. making sixes work for F# and G range just doesnt do it for me. A# seems to be the cutoff for me on the 6's.

[@zizizmer]

Thank you bro!🙏 Yeah I feel you on that, I think the main thing is the scale length of the guitar. Mine is only 25.5 which isn’t actually that high, I use a pitch shifter for anything past Bb standard / Drop G#

[@Mavvyd96]

You played this in Drop A? I thought these guys played in A standard. Nevertheless, great playing. Such a killer song.

[@zizizmer]

Hey man yeah I learned it in drop A because there are quite a few parts like the full chords in the chorus which seemed almost impossible to play in standard! I could’ve interpreted it wrong though, because I know they often use A standard😊 Thanks for checking it out and the kind words Brother, I appreciate it a lot🙏

[@Mavvyd96]

@@zizizmer I'm a pure listener and I usually can never tell the difference between drops and standards. I'm not roasting you, I legit thought they maybe changed to drop A. Idk. You got schizophrenic bands like Ice Nine Kills that use drop C# to drop B/B standard, drop A, drop A#, drop G and G#. Makes my head spin.

[@zizizmer]

I usually try play it in standard and decide whether it makes more sense to play in drop tuning or not😊 Hahaha yeahh it really makes my head spin too bro, that’s when a droptune pedal really comes in useful and saves a lot of time tuning😂

[@xdrnxfg]

Hey dude, I started playing guitar like 3 months ago. I have an electric but dont know how to distort it to have a metal sound like this. What is the trick? The Amp? Everytime I google it I can't get a straight answer

[@zizizmer]

Hey man yeah it’ll be your amp that gives you the distorted metal tone - Your pickups will be the “ voice “ of your sound, but it’ll be your amp ( and the addition of pedals for extra gain / tightness ) that will give you the high gain metal sound! Just crank the “ gain “ setting up. I hope this helps bro😊

Hope I can make a cover on this caliber one day. Great work. What plugin did you use for your tone?

[@zizizmer]

Ahh man that means the world thank you so much for the kind words🙏 I used neural DSP - Archetype Gojira for the tone, it’s based on an EVH 5150 III and it’s become my go to for heavy modern tones, you can get a 14 day free trial, I hope this helps😊 Thanks again bro I appreciate you🤝

[@kokkkztse]

Awesome lml !!! What did u use to remove the guitars? vocals too?

[@zizizmer]

Thanks a lot bro I appreciate it! I use an app called Moises and it’s pretty good - usually removing guitars and bass doesn’t alter the quality of the track too much but if you remove drums / vocals it can affect the quality quite a bit😊

[@u1337ochka]

This is what Gojira would sound like (tone-wise) if they were using 7 strings?

Yeahh man I guess so! Plenty of chugs and sludge😂
