You should make the before and after the same volume. Our brains automatically prefer louder stuff so it's harder to hear the genuine differences between the two.
I appreciate what you’re saying, but blending the FX track in is naturally going to bring the level up. If I’m blending it in to find the spot where it sounds right, I’m going by ear and listening to the balance. If I automatically preferred something just on the basis of volume I would have kept turning the FX fader up and up. Some things are not quite as simple to do in a video as they are to suggest in a comment, but I’ll aim to make everything the same volume next time 🙂
Interesting I grew up with slayer literally …I was at every practice and was in the room when the wrote reign in blood …teched for Kerry for reign tour for a bit ..the secret back in the day ..way back was boss eq modded jcm 800 …first time they went to Europe Jeff lent me his modded jcm 800 for the summer it was glorious man …they were funny great friends, generous and super caring and cool
FYI the lexicon PCM 42 is not a reverb its a digital delay from the early 80's probably no more than 12 bit. There are 2 limiter circuits and not compressor's inside. Even with the effect when it is set to 0 delay will still have a very short delay time because of the A TO D an D TO A conversions and additionally some phase cancelations because of this. So it will give a pseudo doubling effect
A few bands/producers also used the cheap Alesis reverb for similar saturation/compression iirc. And a few used them for a dirtier verb (eg Aphex Twin).
The Legacy mode is the previous version 1 mode. PSP updated v1 to V2 because the first model didn't include the limiters. You'll need V2 and set it to Full: engages emulation not only of the limiters but also of the original A/D and D/A converters in the hardware PCM 42

Agree. If it's not level matched the A/B is completely useless.

Way to go Yt algorithm for recommending this video and channel. Subscribed.
Glad to have you aboard 👍

True but you can offset the track by the HW a/d/da Loop
Thanks for sharing, very cool, as soon as you did the comparison it was like that’s the sound. Very neat. Andy Wallace is a monster
It sounds like you have a clean DI still going with the distorted guitars?
I can also hear that
Great tip! Ty for sharing!
Thanks for checking it out 👌
Had to evaluate this with the DI signal in there still.
You nailed it! Thank you so much again!
Thanks for checking it out!
LOVE THIS!
🤘
The audiable DI is intentional?

Great stuff Sam!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great stuff!
PS: It's a delay unit.
Sounds as if you have the DI guitar rec. also in the mix. Was it on purpose to have more attack definition maybe?
Thanks for sharing this very cool tip. Mind you. It seems you have the PSP42 delay set to 50/50 dry/wet.
So it basically is parallel clipping?
it is just louder.
basically no difference
I’m gonna stop watching now, but basically the after is just louder than before.
Im sorry i try not to be negative but that is a god awful ir
