  3. Yeah, it was all done at home on an early version of pro tools. Honestly, there was very little production. I like big, dry, simple, unprocessed recordings, so every for pretty much every song, I recorded the rhythm gtr track without reverb, repeated, and then panned the tracks hard L and R. My secret weapon is an old homemade isolation cabinet that I bought from Paults many years ago. That let me really crank some small amps like a Univalve. Used a Sm57 and a cheap ART tube preamp. No outboard gear or plugins for guitar. Some solos and rhythm tracks were through a Pod. Just about all the bass tracks (12 and 4 string) were recorded direct with a split signal through a Sansamp BDDI and a guitar Pod. Very simple and I think the bass sounds good. I've heard that on King's X recordings, they always had to double the 12ver track with a 4 string bass to get a solid low end. I didn't do that and I think there's plenty of bottom - like on Get Strange. All the low end comes from the Sansamp and the tone comes from the Pod. Except for a couple tracks where I used acoustic drums, the drum tracks were played on an electronic kit. It doesn't sound as good as a professionally recorded acoustic set, but sounds much better than I could have recorded an acoustic kit. Plus, my pro tools setup only has two inputs, so I couldn't have used more than two tracks for drums anyway. Most vocals were through some cheap condensor mic. Any distorted vox were through a Tech 21 XXL pedal (I hate that pedal for guitar but love it for vox). I used a little plug in reverb, eq and compression. That's it. Oh, and on tracks 1 and 6, I recorded my Les Paul through a distortion pedal through your Super Pimp. The SP rocks!
