Thank you SO much for taking the time to make this video! I'm building a PC to start recording and I love seeing how a song comes together in a mix. Extremely useful info!

[@EricMerrow]

I’m really glad you enjoyed the video!

[@anechoicmedia]

yes more of these videos please! very interesting to watch how you mix doom :)
what mic's does Steve use on his 4x12 and 2x15 cabs?

[@Fraeg]

Great stuff, I picked up a trick or two, will try out tonight! Running a 90s sovtek big muff pi that I am having a tough time taming for tracking in Ableton.

Hi Eric, this and your previous video have been super valuable for somebody trying to get over their apathy towards processing tracks through a DAW. Would you consider doing a video on how you add time-based effects to mixes? I hear my friends often talk about trying to get reverb just perfect, and your video makes me think it might not even be necessary. Peace!

[@EricMerrow]

Thanks for checking out the video! I’m glad the video is helping! I’ll keep the time-based aspect in mind! I need to make another one of these videos soon

I use Guitar Pro in the same manner. I write all my songs in guitar pro mostly for the drums, then I use the exported drum midi to run through Superior Drummer in my DAW. I even split up my shell and cymbal tracks too

[@EricMerrow]

Nice!! I’m glad that my workflow is similar to somebody else’s!

[@KeithShelley1]

Thanks so much for these videos! Do you happen to know the IRs Steve uses?

[@EricMerrow]

I don’t know about the 2x15 but I’ve heard Steve talk about an orange 4x12 cab with specific speaker. I wish I could be more specific but I am unable. I’m sure Steve would tell you if you asked

[@DoesItDoom]

I use the Two Notes Orange 4x12 HP8 (G12K-100) and the original Two Notes Fat Papa 2x15.

@@DoesItDoom thanks, Steve!

What kind of strings are you using for doom on a bass

[@EricMerrow]

Personally I just use heavy gauge bass strings like Ernie ball or d’addarios. Not sure the gauge, but tuning down that low on a bass can get really difficult if your stings are too light
