Does anyone knows what amps cabinets petals etc and mixing techniques they use for this amazing sound of guitars at Blackening?? I'm listening this a couple of years and i'm wondering
Their 'go to' 5150 is called Bubba and it's not modded. They just like it (not all amps of the same model sound the same, especially after time, due to variation and drift in component values). If it wasn't that, it would have been one of Richardsons 5150s, which I believe are modded.
Other than that, EMG equipped guitars, SM57, maybe with a 421 as matt says (but the 57 will be dominant), and I think they might use marshal cabs. Not sure.
It's a pretty simple rig really.
Rob says that he uses low gain and presumably digs in a lot. That will affect the tone very strongly, and there will probably be a boost in there. An 808 in all probability, but I don't know for sure.
The green channel on a 5150 (1, not 2) is where a lot of the agressive chunk comes from. You can dial a ton of gain on it and it still don't lose the low end. Throw a TS boost in front to add that extra push over the cliff.

I'm new in mix process and i don't know if i have a riff with open 5ths (rhythm guitar)
and the main riff (lead guitar) upon that,what can i do? Should i have 4 channels to each one or 4 all together?
You can try:
L[2xRhythm] C[Lead] R[2XRhythm]
L[2xRhythm] C[2xLead] R[2XRhythm]
L[2XRhythm] R[2xLead]
L[Rhythm, Lead] R[Rhythm, Lead]
And any number of variations with stacking additional tracks, relative levels of tracks and moving some tracks in from outer extremes.
There's no obligation to quad either. You can just do one rhythm either side, it's often fine and sometimes better. In fact, unless you can play the part very well indeed, you shouldn't quad.
Good find. Not clear if its layered with a marshall amp or they used a marshal cab or they used a marshall for something other than main rhythms. I don't hear marshall (amps) in the main sound, but you never know.
So there is!
And with that, it's Ibanez TS > 5150 > Marshall 1960BV (straight front with V30's)
Also it seems to be mostly tracked on one of those god-awful LTD F-series guitars :lol:
