In the spirit of things that are kinda useless and mildly entertaining (to me, at least), I present the following...
Having been working with the Sony HDR-UX5 camera for a few weeks, most of my videos have gone straight from the camera to YouTube with only a bit of trimming. But I knew at some point I'd actually have to learn how to use Adobe Premiere Elements, so this is my sandbox project... managed to get four videos sync'ed with an audio track and a few (minor) special effects thrown in.
For the most part, the gear in the video is actually the gear used on the recording, so it should give a good idea of what particular guitar/amp combinations sound like...
- Left rhythm guitar - PRS McCarty Korina into Egnater JTM45 head
- Right rhythm guitar - G&L ASAT Classic into Hughes & Kettner Edition Tube 20 combo
- Lead guitar - PRS McCarty Korina into Mesa Studio preamp + Randall RT2/50 power amp
- All of the above - through V30-loaded Randall R212C cabinet mic'd with Cascade Fat Head ribbon and Blue "The Ball" dynamic into Presonus DigiMax FS
- Acoustic guitar - Takamine EF-385 12-string mic'd with Kel Audio HM-1 and Audio Technica AT2020 condensers into Presonus DigiMax FS
- Bass guitar - G&L Tribute L-2500 direct into DigiMax FS
- Vocals - Studio Projects C1 condenser into DigiMax FS
- Drums - Drums on Demand
(OK, so technically I used the same McCarty for rhythm & lead tracks on the recording but used different ones in the video... just seeing if anybody's paying attention. :p )

If you have a moment I would love to know what you did to the Studio Projects C1 fur this song to make it sound so full. EQ? Some other effect? Mine ends up sounding hollow.
BTW, You are a great player. I hope to one day play like that.

Lemme think... I used the C1 on vocals... it was running straight into the Presonus Digimax FS preamp. Then in Sonar, I applied a couple of effects... first the Sonitus Multi-band Compressor, followed by the Izotope Ozone compressor/eq. The combination of those two plug-ins does a great job of fattening up thin sounding tracks, particularly vocals.
