Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Thanks! I tend to bring out the big guns for special threads. The above song has many, many hours invested.

Basically, we recorded it and listened to it kinda like how you hear it - but we also recorded it without any effects. After we were done, we went back through and used plugins to get the sound we wanted for each individual stub/track. That's recording the dry tracks, while the wet tracks (those have effects) weren't actually recorded.

Ok so dry is natural guitar and wet is all the plug-ins. Record with wet muted or super low then boost wet in where wanted?

Traditionally, they'd take the dry signal and run it through pedals and an amp (re-amp) - to record that, being able to change it to anything they'd like by sending the recorded signal through various bits of hardware.

These days, you just use plugins in your DAW.

So, we played with effects (wet) but used bypasses to record the clean (dry) signal. We then just used plugins to make the guitar and amps sound like how we wanted them to sound. It's a bit of an old-school technique used by studios, but some folks still do it that way.

Normally, we record the 'wet' and there is no 'dry'. We just make it sound like we want it to sound in the mix. That's actually faster for me than it is to bother with re-amping.
