STL TONES: 7 TIPS TO GET THE BEST PLUGIN GUITAR TONES (Episode 4)

Very informative Ray!

Thanks for your video dude ! The DI Boxe you're showing in the video is the Radial Engineering Pro DI ? The little model ?

You think the di could tame slightly hot pickups. Hmmm something to try before I splash out on new pups

Just so you know, instrument level signals are LOWER THAN LINE LEVEL SIGNALS. You are totally wrong.

I'm trying to figure out where I can listen to the song playing

watching this video end costing me a DI purchase ... thanks a lot

thanks for the video, talking about input levels I read somewhere about -12/-18dbs but is there some specific target level to get the most from STL?

I would add that Compression is a super important tool with a lot of plug ins that I try. Some amp sims especially need a compressor plugin before them or they get really spikey, especially clean tones. Clean tones is where amp sims fall short for me.

Input levels = Gainstaging ☺️

i use a focusrite 212 that seems to be nice and clean

Thank you 👍🏼

Get as far away from your computer monitor as possible and face the other to minimize the buzz

i like to use a cheap Art Tube Preamp between my guitar and my interface. You can really warm up a brittle tone, or, use it to push those plugins a little harder at the "front'.

Thanks Raymond! You rock! Do you know when the CLA Tonality is finally coming out? Thanks man!

Great video guys!

J48 into the mic preamps of a Babyface Pro here.

Actually, clipping the soundcard might be an interesting video for the future :)
