Monday Guitar Recording

I'm going home for Thanksgiving on Wednesday morning, and until then, I have work to take care of, so here's some music.

If you've been following my music posts (and honestly, who hasn't?), you may remember that I've posted both a MIDI version and a GarageBand guitar version of an old song of mine called "Invincible." Neither is available at the moment because of the file manager thing, but more importantly, I finally got around to recording a decent version with the POD, and it sounds pretty damn sweet.

I tried to improve some of the production values from past recordings to cut down on clipping and balance the drum tracks. It's not perfect, but it's definitely easier on the ears. Also, I've started panning the guitar tracks more widely to get a fuller sound.

Technical info, since I enjoy flaunting how much the PODxt can do:

- Clean lead guitar = Class A-30 TB amp model with Analog Delay effect, and I think I used either a Rotary Drum with Horn effect or a Sine Chorus effect in the beginning.

- Clean rhythm guitar = Connor 50 amp model with the drive at about 4.

- Distorted rhythm guitar = Plexi Variac amp model with Classic Distortion stompbox effect.

- Bass guitar = My regular guitar played through the Tweed B-Man amp model and tuned down an octave with the Bender stompbox effect, then bass boosted with the equalizer in GarageBand.

I think that's about it. Here's a link to the recording. Check it out; Comments are always welcome:
