Award Sounds

Background

These files were recorded using the Matamp 1224GT guitar amplifier

Signal Chain

The signal chain was a Les Paul and an Eggle LA Pro (closest popular guitar is a Fender Fat-Strat in S/S/H configuration) into a Matamp 1224GT and a 2x12 Vintage 30 cab. Any reverb is ambient or from the amp itself. No effects (i.e. no reverb, compression, chorus, etc) have been added. The only processing was to align the signals of the microphones used.

Sessions

There were two sessions. I was happy with the results of the clean sounds from the first day, but the recordings of the overdriven channel just didn't do the amp justice. The sound in the room was so much better than what ended up being recorded. So I went for another recording session and played with the mic placement some more. The results are better, but still not what I'm looking for.
