I already play in a melo-death metal band, and the other guys in it play in a tech death band so this is gonna be a slow little side project kept under the sheets for a while.

To be fair I live in a town with a population of about 2000 (including the hillbillies who live 30-40 Km's out), I'm right next to a town of about 200 000 too but you just gotta look out for people who share your passion for music. There'll be someone out there for yah

That'd be a good way to go, have a rough budget of what you can spend on interface gear/amp.

Doesn't do FX tho, for that you need to buy the seperate FX8 which all together will probably cost you more or the same as an Axe-Fx. Also it don't do dual amps.

Wish people would stop comparing the POD and the Axe-Fx, they're two different machines that are made for two different kinds of people.

I like the LTD, why'd you get the 150w Spider tho?

I really like my Hellraiser, but my favorite shapes are the Jackson Kelly (For the child me) and the telecaster (for the adult me). I really like Flying V's too but I can't sit with them unless the input jack in like a Gibson's.

Any other POD HD users here? Any of yours liked the latest firmware and model packs? I'm really digging the remastered JCM 800 and Vox AC 30 models?

That's gud, my bassist has the natural finish one I think

I tried the Blackouts but wasn't a fan, the best pups I ever tried were the stock passives in my $200 Hamer but I doubt they'd make sevens of em.

Getting a custom with Juggernauts in it soon which everyone is a bit iffy about so should be interesting.

Yeah man, JCM 800's are killer amps, I would love one.

If you're looking into poweramps Marshall do some pretty good ones if you like the ELX4 tone. I personally use a Matrix poweramp which is solid state and was made for the Axe-Fx to react like a tube power amp (even though I use a POD)

Tried weed once on Hamilton Island (Some big resort on an island in northern Australia, very classy) and drove around a golf buggy. I only drink socially.

Honestly I'm always moving around and I don't have time to do drugs or sit down with a beer and watch The Block or X Factor, Personally I think if you drink alone more of ten that with other people you have an alcohol problem. I don't really care if yall do drugs around me I just don't see the point in it.

What gets me my high, even my stoner bassist says playing live is more fun than he ever had while smoking a joint or doing shrooms.

Good on you, glad to see you kicked a habit for so long

So a couple question /prod/

1. I bought a pair of ATH M-50x cans (inb4 meme headphones), I mainly do recording for my death metal band and my own personal tracks for fun, are they the best choice for sub-$200 AUD or is there anything else?

2. https://soundcloud.com/inertia-the-band Is the demos we've done so far (haven't shown anyone yet, only people on /mu/, far from complete mostly done on Pro Tools) and I know the quality isn't great (especially the fuckin drums). So are there any decent torrents for a RTAS or AAX plugin like Superior Drummer or EZ Drummer and are they easy to torrent?

3. How do I into mastering (i.e. making the songs louder if that's what it means) They always come out so quiet after bouncing them to disk and want to know how to normalize the volume on the tracks to make them louder like pretty much any song that you'd hear now (mainly metal tho). Either in Pro Tools or even putting the track into Audacity and doing it there.

Sorry for the questions but I'm useless at this sort of stuff but out where we are there isn't anybody else to do it and I figure I wanna do the best job for a demo.

>Schecter is for metalcorefags
I own one and use it for everythign from JAzz to death metal, but Imostly see them in metalcore bands here kek

Those stereotypes are each sort of true but people will use anything for any style really.
