EzMix / Guitar Gods

[creep187]

So, I’ve just purchased the november metal bundle, hoping it would be as simple as plug and play, but i’m getting a very average sound, compared to the trailer of course. I was hoping this would sound better than Guitar Rig / Rammfire, which I have also failed to find useful. Doesn’t sound like the same product….

I know there must be something wrong on my end right?
but if so, what am I doing wrong?

Guitar: BC Rich Wartribe
USB Audio: Tascam
64bit PC

Any help would be awesome !

I’m gonna remix something with it in a few and I’ll see what my results are and post back here.

I hear you on that, I find that plugins are something like CD’s because you’re not always blown away the first time you hear it, but the more you listen to it the more it sinks in and the more you grow to love it. I purchased the Guitar Gods expansion as well, just you like you did, and went in and started really digging in to get a better sound out of it, the greatness of the fundamental sound is there, you just have to go in and find their sweet spots, don’t always settle for what settings the plugin has right when you call up a preset, and remember you can eve stack them.

One mistake I have seen many users do is load EZmix on a mono track, even though there are presets dedicated to mono instruments such as kicks and snares, etc, but if you open up a guitar preset on an auxiliary STEREO channel, and route your mono track to that stereo aux, you’ll get an almost instant gratifying sound.

I would love for Toontrack to help their users get a better sound by having some type of tips and tricks section or even manual along with their products, or even their site.

Finishing up this post by saying that Toontrack makes jaw dropping products and I am a loyal customer/user and WILL continue to buy their software because they’re simply great.

Hope I made sense and hope it helped you somehow.

Please do, I’ll do the same to compare and share techniques.

I really dig this expansion. Got a great tone almost right off the bat with the IA core tone 1 and a decent direct stereo recording of my guitar.
Did add a little EQ in the form of the quirky Paris EQ vst. Took the harshness of
