In this session I focus on video. It has been 5 years since my last video guitar recording. So in this session is et that up all again. I focus less on the actual recording, in that I play #176 a few times just to get 1 multitrack recording. Although this tone is: Raw distortion pedal and fender tweed, so purely distortion which is very sensitive to the touch. Arrangement 1 I used rhythm pickup. Arrangement 2 I used lead pickup. At least for the final mix of the both arrangements together. Very much work in progress. Not at all done. Just something fun.

🎸 Session #312: A Journey Through Tones and Classics 🎶

Embark on a musical journey with Session #312, where each track is a testament to the versatility and depth of guitar music. From the multiple warm-ups of "Blue Sky" to the intricate layers of JerryC's "Canon Rock," this session is an exploration of sound and technique.

Track 1: A showcase of various tones, setting the stage for the rest of the session.

Tracks 2 & 3: Capture the essence of "Blue Sky" and "Canon Rock" with a dry approach, later enhanced with Tape and Reverb for that full, rich sound.

Tracks 5-8: My tone evolves, especially from track 5 with "Emerald Attempt" and into the Thin Lizzy classics "Cowboy Song" and "Jailbreak," both in Rhythm and Lead versions.

Track 10: A simple warm-up from E Eflat to E Standard, serving as a prelude to the soulful rendition of "Whipping Post" in Track 11.

Join me in this diverse session where each note tells a story.

Session #312 - #2 - Allman Brothers Band - Blue Sky

Session #312 - #4 - JerryC - Canon Rock

🎵 Session #313 is a deep dive into tone exploration and musical mastery. The session begins with "Tone finding, Warmup," setting the stage for a journey through sound and texture.

🎸 Track 2 brings a rendition of the Allman Brothers Band's "Blue Sky," where I experimented with a UAD Hitsville trial, trying the Dave Tozer-Guitar Riff preset. This setup gave an interesting boost to the sound, making me question if the plugin is really worth it – but the difference is certainly audible!

🎶 In Track 3, I warmed up with several attempts at "Canon Rock," setting up the UAD Pultec DEQP-1A and DI-Guitar Warmer preset. This was followed by a full performance of JerryC's "Canon Rock" in Track 4, where I turned off EQ to avoid clipping, relying on Reverb and Studer for the sound texture.

🔧 Tracks 5 and 6 feature my original "Three Dimensional," where I reintroduced EQ for the leads and maintained the Hard Rock UAD Studer, with the UAD Pultec set to Electric Gtr Bite, and Realverb-Pro set to Small Bright Room.

🎧 The session culminates with "Always Remember," a triptych of Lead, Rhythm, and AltLead performances, where I took extra care in getting the right sound. The EQ was meticulously adjusted to prevent clipping, and a UAD FairChild 670 was added to the Master to tweak the right channel. Each of the three tracks was reverbed individually to maintain the Left-Center-Right separation.

Session #313 - #13 - Kyle Abent - Always Remember - Lead+Rhythm+AltLead

Session #314 - #20 - Kyle Abent - Three Dimensional - Lead+Rhythm+AltLead

Tracks 1-4 plugins:
	UAD Neve 1073SE Legacy - INST - Guitar Presence
	UAD Studer A800/Classic Rock
	UAD RealVerb-Pro - Small Bright Room

Tracks 5 plugins
	UAD Cambridge (EQ) - Instru: Electric Guitar
	UAD Neve 1073SE Legacy - INST - Guitar Presence
	UAD Oxide Tape - Warm Elect Guitar
	UAD RealVerb-Pro - Small Bright Room

Track 6 I removed EQ - as it made the tone thin, whereas Rhythm needs width :P
Track 7 re-added EQ back although it made tone thin

Track 8 I replaced Oxide with Studer because tone being harsh and clipping, also removed EQ to have fat tone, also placed Studer before Reverb this time.

Track 9 fits the tone not beeing too harsh without push from Oxide/Warm

Track 10,11 same settings as 9 - nice and fat crunchy tone not too warm, just enough reverb to fill the small bright room :)

Track 12 sounds so dark for a small bright room! wow! that rhythm hits hard! damn bugs writing albums!

Track 13 makes me think (at-least the intro) portion of AltLead is more of a prepared solo arrangement than Lead, well atleast in intro to mid.

Track 14-18 same Plugins

Track 19 I swapped the Studer with Oxide(Warm) to make it more of a harsh tone as Canon Rock sounds better distorted/overdriven.
Oxide first in list followed by Neve then Verb.
