A true half stack blaring at you, learning how to control a high gain amp, the feel of it etc. THAT has for sure changed, and you can’t get that feel playing to a computer and superior drummer, no matter how much I love technology nowadays, that’s a feel thing that many young generations aren’t going to experience. What I will say doesn’t happen as much anymore, is guys getting together and playing together in a room like a damn BAND. ![]() But it’s because I was new, young, brain like a sponge, and I simply had never heard anything like that or a tone like that in my life: as we get older, the nostalgia of those records etc stays with us, and we never are able to reach that again often, it’s just the way it is. I rmemever the first time I heard pantera, or in flames clayman album, which is still a pinnacle of production and writing to me, and nothing comes close to that stuff for me. This is a hard one, but it’s the truth: nothing is going to hit you like the first time you heard your favorite bands at a young age: it just won’t. Man i don’t think it’s that at all, there ar plenty of artists doing groundbreaking work with technology these days: whether or not you enjoy the music is a different question all together, but I choose not go go down the road of “back in my day”, it just hurts you as a player and your attitude towards it. Kirk almost always boosts his Marshalls and amps with a TS9 in the studio evident from all the pics of his studio setups. I know James stated in interviews he used the TS9 into the Marshall but wasn't a big fan on the grainy tone and preferred a more natural amp tone. Same studio and same producer so highly likely that its the same splitter setup to that point. The Blue cable I'm assuming is the line from the splitter box as it is pictured in the MoP studio pics later on. The TS9 isn't plugged in in the pic but the two other boxes are chained into the input. Could they be perhaps EQ or boost pedals?. Guessing from the profile and relative size compared to the Ibanez pedal, could they be some TC Elec pedals, esp being that the TC pedals were Danish origin and could make sense being used in a Danish studio. Just a question regarding the pic above that I've always wondered about, I can see that there is a TS9 and a Ibanez ST800 but what are the two other boxes on top that the signal is routed through before the amp input? ![]()
