Studio track of my SR5

[TSanders]

I used my autumn redburst SR5 strung with Chromes. Ran through an Avalon U5 and then to my Sadowsky SA410 mic'd and powered by my SVT-2 Pro.

WARNING: these are board mixes. Nothing has been done to any of the tracks. Mixing and mastering will happen when all the tracks are done, I assume.

Nice, Do you ever play at the Loft in Columbus?

 

[strummer]

Solid!

Question: Why the U5, did you have twin signals?

 

[Stephen]

Nice one!

And I especially like the dry, dynamic sound of the raw mix. To me it's just so much more musical than the average compressed-to-death thing one mostly gets today ...

Cheers, Stephen

Yes Magnus, we had a Di line and a cab line. Thats the way Ive done bass a number of times.

 

[snowbum]

Great sound!! I really enjoyed it, the whole band has a super tone!

And to quote you again, this was actually done at the Loft Studio.

The guitar player is Neal Lucas a great player with one BUSY schedule. The singer/songwriter/acoustic player is named Garrett Lee. Hes 19 or 20 years old.

fantastic

First off, bass tone is great
Second, playing is great on bass
Third, playing is great as a group
Fourth, mix is good
Fifth, drums and guitar sound good
Sixth, I like the singing, lyrics and phrasing
Finally, the song is great


One of the best things I've ever heard online

Congrats and thanks for sharing

I told you before, but that is really nice work, my friend.

Any hints of how much from each, or is it 50/50 as recorded? It's a hella good tone Travis, I'll try adding mic'd to the di next time recording (which should be in 2 weeks).

That's great - lovely SR5 sound particularly against the acoustics. Which switch selector setting did you use....I'm guessing series?

Thanks Jackson.

Half and half is a good place to start. Its really going to be contingent on your setup.

Thanks, believe it or not its parallel.

Very nice creative playing on your part and the rest of the group also . In the pocket with some nice funk Tasty!....flatwounds ? EB group 3 ?

shakinbacon said it, everything sounds great!

 

[sloshep]

Nice going Travis. There is something still amazing about the tone of a SR5.

 

[EBMM7181]

wow, great tone. and nice playing

I've always wanted to try flats on my SR5, but many people have said flatwounds hold the Stingray back, and they take away from what a Ray does best.... But after hearing your tone with flats, I think Im gonna try some out.

Thanks bro. Let me know if you try flats out Billy. I really like them, and live they just kill on my SR5. Ive goten more compliments on my tone since I switched to flats than before.
