Hi all,
These 2 samples are from my "praise/worship" CD I recorded last Sept-Dec; they are the Zigged version of Matt Redman's You Led Me To The Cross.
If there's any interest I'll post relevant details; the guitar/bass/vox is me, with the guitar in this instance being my Les Paul Standard(neck pickup if anyone wants to know).
Hope U like.

Rockin' Zig!

I'm curious how you recorded the guitar track - mic'd amp? DI to mixer and/or modeler? TIA,

[Rufus]

I'd recognise that Zig sound anywhere!


Funniest thing is, when Zig was here at the Kennel a short while back, he played NN's Strat in a very casual sort of way, and was still stunning. You kind of expect studio work to be quite a lot better than "in-the-living-room-with-a-practise-amp", but this guy just sits down and plays.
Brilliant.

I wish he and Alan E, (who makes the FX pedals), could meet. Blimey, that'd be staggering!!!! :o

Ta for listening there Slej; I love it when folks ask too!
It was: Les Paul plugged into input of a Behringer V-Amp2; balanced cable from V-Amp to PCI soundcard input. And that's it. I use Cakwalk Sonar for the sequencing, mixing and FX, and Ozone mastering software. I recorded it in 24bit. That Behringer V-Amp2 does a very good job indeed with overdrive; if I remember rightly, I think I just used a preset patch modelled on an Engl amp. Any reverbs or other FX I generally add in software now.
If I'm playing live, I only use my real amp's valves and a wah.
Bless you as ever for your encouragement Rufus.

Thanks Zig. I have a Pandora, similar to the V-Amp, but am struggling to get a good tube-like overdriven tone like you have achieved. Will keep plugging away.

Pandora? Who makes these btw?

Pandora? Who makes these btw?

Korg, though sometimes you see them under the name "ToneWorks" with "by Korg" in small letters.

Korg also owns Vox now, and the digital processing is basically the same between the Pandora, the inexpensive Korg AmpWorks modeler, and the Vox AD-series amps.
