Then I transfer them into Reason 8 Essentials and use the Line 6 guitar amp, Scream 4 (something or other) and an M-class equalizer to create the tone. Also I don't have a clue what I'm doing so I'm doing it by ear haha. Sorry for leading you to believe I have proper mics.\r\n\r\nThe sound I'm going for is somewhere between new-school Darkthrone, Early Celtic Frost and Motorhead. (Eventually anyway).","subreddit_name":"Metal","author":"AStraightLine"}]}
