So don't get me wrong I don't dislike double bass work, infact in just about everything else I do there are large portions if not 70% double bass work. Just in KP I wanted to directly have something that was single foot work throughout the entire thing.
Also skip and Rich yo boy outted sayin ya'll were talkin shit at practice...
hahahaha I bet we did, don't worry we didn't say anything everybody else isn't thinking.

I haven't gone in and really done any eq'ing to any of the tracks except for the Zoom Q2HD track that I had setup for a "room mic" and the kick. The Matamp was made for having a Rat slamming the shit out of the front end of it. I believe this is the best sounding stuff that i have ever recorded and I can't wait to get it finished so I can annoy the fuck out of you all to get you to listen to it.
Dude soooo fucking excite to hear this. Matamp + Rat is one of my fav tones ever!!!!
I wish the RAT Matamp thing worked better for me, I can just never get RATs to sound the way I want/think they should
I need to crack open my Volt Thrower and play around with the trim pots. Mine isn't dialed in quite the same way the tourbox one was, I have to crank the gain waaaaay up to get it where I normally like it (at just shy of noon typically) and a bit too muddy. I haven't had the patience to mess with it yet though.

Conky, that tone sounds tits. I've been playing around with bright dirt into dark amp and darker dirt into brighter amp. My buddy has a VFE rat, and he uses it so conservatively! I was getting some really velcroey, blown out sounding fuzz when I used it.

I'm pretty stoked. Neumos is the right place for them too.

Did you check your patch cables? I've had a few dirt pedals do that and a lot of the time it was a patch cable crapping out. Once my Pharaoh did that though and it ended up being the switch. I emailed mark about and he said he'd fix it no charge. Trouble shot it through a few emails and instead of sending it to him he sent me a switch and I took care of it.

Amen brother, our drummer is of the same mindset and I love it.
I personally love double foot kick drum work, but it's definitely overused. I'd really like to start a Post-Metal kinda band and add double foot flurries like The Ocean does. I'd love to blend the grooves and speed of Gojira, with the slow, ambient drone of Cult of Luna.
