Harsh, Angry, White-hot Distortion/Fuzzes

[fungalattack]

hell yehhh to atmosphere and murky black metal toanz!!!!!! reverb before fuzz and maybe even after, too! super cold and biting.

And I can always crank the spring reverb on the amp to wash it out further.

[fungalattack]

Yes washing fuzz in reverb will help you achieve the sound I believe you are aiming for.

sort of a side note but not really! weird kvlt black metal!

I can do whatever meng!

@chutney- WeHuntKings had one of the first Gloomy big boxes, the sparkly black one with the super nice parts in it!!

Aw cool!! Lucky dude, that one had teh sexxx appealz

[skullservant]

It was before I had settled 100% on the exact parts values, so it sounded a tad different, but still heavy!!

Someone may have said it but a DS-1.

So when you guys put reverb before your distortion, what sort of reverb settings are you using ? Long reverbs with a very wet signal, or short and dry? Or long and dry? Or short and wet? Share the knowledge

[skullservant]

I've been using my Holy Grail on the Spring setting with the mix at about 2 o'clock, which is kind of dry. If it gets to be too wet of a signal it just sounds like the guitar is floating. With the Rub-A-Dub reverb I'm finding the trails to be a little too long, so I dial 3/4 of the reverb out. So I'd say short trails, decent mix

Cool! Have an RV3 so will play with that tonight. We need to start a black metal thread on here actually!

DONE

[fungalattack]

I like a short reverb with a mid to long wetness if I am going for that cold, obscured, murky but not tooo murky metal toanz. or maybe a long wet reverb pre fuzz and a short dry reverb post!

[skullservant]

Yeah, if I'm tracking guitar it's usually verb->fuzz->delay/reverb!!

[fungalattack]

verb-fuzz- delay-verb and maybe even another dirt after that (if you want to get craaazy). but it wouldn't be ILF without absurd pedlllulllz chains!

[skullservant]

LOOP BEFORE EVERYTHING AS WELL

Hahaha so essentially a "normal" signal chain in reverse?
