Name: Toontrack Rock Solid Snare test by Nolly
Duration: 18 s
Description: As soon as I heard the massive-sounding snares in Toontrack's new Rock Solid EZX (recorded by Randy Staub) I wanted to try them in a heavy mix context. I made this drum mix based around that idea, blending my favourite kit elements from the Avatar, Metal Machine and Metal Foundry packs in there too.

I really want this huge, roomy snare sound! Damn!

Check out my tones! Willing to give advice on guitar sound too!

Damn! This breakdown is 3 years old, and you just put a clip on IG showing you tracking it for PIII. Guess you hold on to this kinda stuff!

I'm hugely in love with the sound of this bass and pedal as a combination - so much clarity, aggression and power. I recorded the main riff from "Icarus Lives!" and overlaid it over the album track to demonstrate.

A quick test i whipped together to showcase my Blackmachine B6 in action.  The clip came out a bit better than i had expected, maybe ill expand on this in the future.

Hi guys,
Here's a quick mix done with a new guitar tone I dialled in with the firmware 9.01 update. It's the first riff from my band Periphery's song "Racecar".

Makoreactor 2.0

So I got this Two Notes Torpedo Live which is a loadbox and very customizable cab sim/IR unit wrapped into one.  Plugged my Laney Ironheart into it and of course used my Protone Misha Mansoor Signature Overdrive pedal in front and the tone was most pleasing!

Whipped up a quick clip to demo the sounds, hope ya dig!

Guitar is my Jackson Custom Shop 7 (the blue sparkle one) with BKP Aftermaths tuned to Drop Ab.
