I remember some things that were shared about recording the Toxicity Album: For Daron he used a Soldano/Mesa DR as with high gain guitar tones (it all starts to sound the same the more gain you go in with.) using Mashall JCM800 or Orange amp for the cruncy tones into the Rivera 4x12 with old V30 loaded into it, and SM-57/58 reamping into RR's console. the cab makes and breaks the sound. For the "epic bass" sounds, it was a Ampeg SVT CL or an Ashdown ABM-600/1200 into a Ampeg fridge 8x10, recorded with an SM-57/58 into RR's Neve 8068 console. Similar setup (with the SVT-CL) for was used by RATM which can pull off that crunchy tone you're talking about.
I love your videos! One area that would be sick for you to touch on is that modern posthardcore sound like SeeYouSpaceCowboy or If I Die First. Not many content out there like that 🙏
I maintain that there’s no better 3 album streak than the first 3 System records since they came out end to end perfect albums. This channel’s proper top tier for me now
@ just my opinion, but if you know of any better 3 albums in a row from a band then by all means let’s talk about it, it’s an opinion but I’m happy to have my mind changed
Dude your videos are amazing, l have watched all of them and keep coming back to them as I am heavily inspired by most of the bands you cover. Your ability to recreate the sound and feel so accurately is phenomenal!! I've noticed that you have a set of 'go to' plugins etc. and I wondered if you would do a video to showcase which plugins you use and a general a guide on how to use them for example eq, compression etc? I really struggle with the mixing side of things and you explain things really well so I'd love to see you do a video focused more on mixing technique and how to use the various tools correctly. Thanks for all the time and work that goes into these videos, they will be helping and inspiring a lot of people!!!
@@jayisaacs17 thank you man! Appreciate it a lot. I’m not sure yet whether I’m gonna be making a vid like that for the channel, but in the upcoming courses there will definitely be some deeper dives into how to use all these tools. I have a bunch of other vids lined up for the channel but may still put some kind of plugin rundown out in a few months!
You're sick man. Doing a great job with emulating their sound, bringing your own creativity, while also making it educational and enjoyable to watch. Great content. Totally agree when you said you can totally imagine Serj Tankian singing on it.
I struggle to find the growl tones of toxicity my dream tone, make a video on how that for me lol I bought th cali plugin because of you lol you owe me😂
@@clownfreak3658 later in this video I cover the toxicity tone for a min. Definitely a crazy amount of distortion and post processing. For the record I don’t recommend you buy any of the stuff I use 😆 The goal with these vids is to show you how to get the sound using whatever plugins you already have
Richii, I was wondering if you’ve considered putting together your own amp app. Where all these peddle combinations are available in their full and adjustable forms.
I would love to someday, but I know nothing about coding etc. so wouldn't know where to start. Hopefully at some point a plugin company will approach me to collaborate on a custom amp. I definitely have a lot of ideas for when that day comes 🤘
Hello, Richii, I am a big fan of your work, and every time you inspire me to make new tracks and improve, thank you for your videos. Please answer one question, at what volume do you mix and master your tracks? I will be very grateful for the answer. 🤝
@@BoGaZhNIK thank you for watching. Means a lot whenever someone tells me they get a lot out of these! To be honest, I just use my ears for levels, and it’s different for every track. I know that’s a crap answer but I rarely actually look at the numbers 😆 I just use 2-4 reference tracks (both when mixing, and when mastering) and just make sure my track sounds good alongside them. Generally as long as your mix isn’t clipping it’s ok, I always just keep it a little bit below clipping
@RichiiWainwright thank you, by the way, will there be videos about creating music in the style of celdweller, ENMY and Cantervice, if not, then I would just like to know your opinion about these bands) one more time
@@BoGaZhNIK Celldweller I definitely wanna do a video on at some point. The others I just checked out. If Cantervice blows up more I'll do a vid on them! They sound so sick
I saw that graphic floating around back in the day of Daron's guitar rig (mostly just the routing of everything) and god damn. Too much for me at the time to comprehend.
Hey Dude. Do you make the video on Dope's band guitar sound? You are making amazing! Very interesting! And Clawfinger's guitar sound. This is band's, who's guitars sound very strangely. I will be pleased to see!

24:13 I think it's more in the bass I only noticed how loud it was listening to science recently
You've become a favourite of mine, going to follow along to this one to create my own stuff :D
Can’t wait for your course, take my money!
Love your channel and ive been waiting for a system of a down sound i think you nailed it looking forward for more of soad from you cheers

Ask a fan of some other band lol
@ just my opinion, but if you know of any better 3 albums in a row from a band then by all means let’s talk about it, it’s an opinion but I’m happy to have my mind changed
@kylehunter2012 I'm not trying to argue, I love soad too
@ lol I’m not arguing dude, was just saying I’m happy to have a conversation if someone feels differently
I love how you use the different approaches creatively. You are using things, that I never thought to use. Very refreshing. Nice!
You're incredibly talented my man
Been waiting for this one for so long!!
Pls do a alice in chains or maneskin video
Def doing AiC at some point!

That middle eastern scale sounds like hijazz to me but i could be wrong

Could you try to replicate a thornhill song? Their guitar tones amaze me. 🤘
I saw that graphic floating around back in the day of Daron's guitar rig (mostly just the routing of everything) and god damn. Too much for me at the time to comprehend.
@@JUNK_ZONE and that was probably just the live rig (I would guess). Guarantee the studio rig was 10x crazier haha

Please can you do a sound like Foo Fighters! Would be much appreciated 👏
nice one mate! really enjoy the video.
Wow. Such an amazing example of what you’re capable of. Are you a millionaire for writing all the music to major label bands? 🤌🤌🤌
@@us3r11 hopefully some day haha. Appreciate it!
