´Hey dude! A revisit would be awesome, as there are now a Diezel amp in Helix, to see if you can get even closer!
Love your work
I've been using multi-effects for years and I love the fact that you can achieve awesome tones with a simple configuration. There are more people really good at multi-effects but they usually use tons of crazy workarounds to make it great. Keep the good work! I would love to see a video explaining your process of getting a great tone(not only explaining the patch)
They sounds awesome. It would be nice for a revisit with the updated software and amps but also in a snapshot format. More people use snapshots these days as they are so much easier to use and take up less space on the helix library list. It's hard to justify using up a whole preset for one little amp setup with no snapshots.
Killer tones! Thanks so much for doing this. The Petrucci tones were outstanding too. Can't wait for you to do this for other artists.
Thanks, sounds very good. Thanks for the walk through! Just got my Helix floorboard this past week. Such an amazing piece of gear. Light years ahead of my HD500.
5 years later I get all these sounds on one preset on the rack unit :D
That intro theme is absolute dope! Sounds fantastic!
Amazing walkthrough. You NAILED the live tones. Nice work!
Great sound ! I'm using it for my coverband !
I'm looking for the "Load" era sound. Can you help me ?
Nice job on tones & video. I copied your settings and got them all loaded into 1 patch with 3 snapshots. Sounds great -thanks!
Cool, curious if you have them available on custom tone? I was gonna try the same thing.
Enjoyed the video, thanks! Are the tones available on Line 6 Custom Tone? Or somewhere else perhaps?
The Ownhammer IRs are great. Please consider uploading the preset to CustomTone.
Congrats on the OwnHammer gig dude!
Hey man just wanted to tell you , thank you!, you helped me to get the tone I wanted on my Pod-go doing something similar you showed on the video . Thanks man.
Sweet! Still using Thermionik? Would like to see some how-to’s of how you use the software!
hello I could give you that tone, with a plugin you could sound like metallica at a very good price.
If you are interested, tell me and we will talk privately to tell you about the process, I guarantee 90% of the real tone
That was fantastic your videos are all great. Thanks for sharing the secrets and looking forward to the next one!
I followed the clean preset exactly ,even using the exact same ir and it sounded nothing remotely like in this video,not even a tiny bit , only difference I'm guessing is I used a PRS custom 24 and I've no idea what guitar was used here,I also added the ir after the amp in the signal chain on the helix ,so that ir loader he used must be changing the sound drastically
With clean sounds, your guitar makes a huge difference. With distortion, it still does, but not as much.
@@BurakovAS false
He is actually saying he is using an iron cross with EMG HETs...... Using an active pickup. You can't dial passives and actives the same way :)
I have the same guitar and I agree the clean tone sounds nothing like it
Did you ever figure out the clean tone
That live tone is pristine! It could just be my ears, but try adding just a very subtle touch of phaser to it, and compare to the S&M clean tone, let me know!
now imagine the next few years down the line when the dsp's are capable running eventide and lexicon quality algorithms real time.
You should do more of these types of vids. They are excellent
If you could please do this for Slayers live tone with EMGs as well that would be epic
Amazing sound thanks menn a lots!!
love for the sound!
Wow this is amazing. I user 3sigma but I think I can get close enough with these settings. Thanks man! Just one question, where does the IR sit in the chain? right after the amp or at the end of teh chain?
Awesome tones! Where does the IR go in the chain? After the amp? Or after the EQ?
7:48 now we have it!!!
Here are my issues, I have been playing guitar since 1967 ( I found a perfect Telecaster neck tossed in s dumpster behind a guitar shop in Covina California. I took it to my wood shop teacher and he helped me build my first guitar. Sadly I never knew what happened to it. I went into the Army in 69. There was a time in my life that I considered myself pretty darn good, I am a tough critic. I am officially a retired Senior Warrant Officer and Blackhawk Pilot and EMS Helicopter Pilot. I am considering picking up my gear and getting back into it .
My problem is I am old school. Screw all of the high tech software & hardware. Screw tweaking knobs dials 1.,25 or ok.56 bla bla. I just want a simple box with preset sounds. I have yet to find one that gets the hair on my neck to stand straight up or send shivers down my spine. I stick with the basic Boss specialty box’s, delays fuzz etc
Let the kids program all of that expensive sound making gear
Whether you use the real stomps or modelers, you still tweak your sounds. The problem isn't tweaking, it's the lack of immediacy with software. With hardware, it's intuitive - you no like sound, you turn knob, you like sound. With software, since it's so versatile and flexible and so far removed from a "barebones" setup, there is a certain amount of inherent complexity involved.
I have a similar issue, although from a slightly different angle. I regularly jam online with my mates (think weekly live jam band shows but without the audience), and we basically come up with tracks on the spot - there is never any planning involved. So, since you have to play it all live, and you want variety, you have to be able to switch sounds on the fly and tweak them (because you can't use the same tone to play calm blues, psychedelic rock and thrash metal). And therin lies the problem - *you can't do that quickly* with modelers. The best you can do with modelers is prepare a few presets in advance and hope it will be enough.
So, yes, the lack of immediacy is the real problem. The tone is there. It's just very cumbersome to get it.
Hi Man !! This is awesome !!!! I have a question : How do you record the guitar track in stereo!! when I add a stereo track in cubase it still gives me input in one side (left or right) but not both as you
does it works with the helix stomp or not ?
4:50 name of the song?
Can you do an update now that there is a diesel in the Helix
no wah pedal or midi pedal ? np, you can draw it by hand lol
Killing it John!
Hey, awsome video man!
Can I get the same results by using a Helix hardware? Can I save the ownhammer impulse response to the hardware to get the tone everytime live? Thanks!
I did not have good results with helix I got that easier tone with pod farm
I can show you that pod farm has more quality in simulation and I could offer those tones at 90% at a very good price if you are interested write me
Hey John, I hope you could help
I'm using those presets in my cover band, but getting the tones sound like its underwater, I'm plugging the helix out to the amp effects loop return. I read that it might be a problem when simulating the IRs, maybe turning it off would do the trick?
Congratulations, it's a fantastic tone !. could you post it on Line6 Custom tone? or indicate a way to achieve it?
Thank you
are you serious ? each setting that you need IS in this video, just take 10 mins and copy his settings. For IRs you can even use the built in Helix cabs and will be close enough. Have fun !
Wow. Really nice
What web site are you using to make these adjustments
Ghost has a similar crunch to James’s crunch.
Can you not just load the IR into Helix?
Yeah. He mentions he just uses the external cuz it's easier to browse for him.
Do you use any cuts on the ir like high or low?? Also when i try this my gain sounds super low im using helix through a line 6 l3t speaker
Would you recommend getting this IR pack, or the new (r)evolution pack for Metallica style tones. I’m using the Atomic Amplifire 12.
Both are killer but I personally love the (r)Evolution debut bundle a lot at the moment.
Sonic Drive Studio Thanks for replying! I was thinking of getting just the Mesa 412 V30 from the (r)Evolution pack as a starter as a low cost way to get into it!
anybody want a new vid now that diezel is in the helix?
killer!
i create the same patch as you on helix lt, but that dont sound that good as your patch, why ?
Did you use the same IRs? they are ½ of the sound .
@@taz5108 yes
Did you ever get it to sound like his I have the same problem the clean tone is this videos sounds nothing like the one I made with the same settings
@@jordanloeffelholz8405 you have to have the EMG Pickups ! The dude in the video is using an LTD James signature. Regarding his Helix settings, you won`t ever get the same tone without an EMG.
Does this work för the pod?
Big bruh
@@arbazann i play real amps not digital. Forgive my ignorance
Not a fan of Metallica’s modern tone. The original mesa sound is king IMO.
Hi, I just bought the Helix, and I can not activate helix native. I did download and install Helix Native, but it is not showing up in Hx edit? (win10 pc). What do I need to do to activate or enable helix native into HXedit?
Pretty sure the Helix itself and Helix Native are separate products. If you have the Helix, you can do everything done in the video in Helixedit.
The closest sound to Metallica i've ever heard on this kind of video o_o
This one is my favourite: ruclips.net/video/4NiOV-wGEXE/видео.html
search for metallica tone fractal ax8 or II XL
@@ok-tchau Those tones sound like absolute garbage
Are you serious?
Man I did all u say in the Rhythm Tone and don't sound similar. Nothing :/
Who else clicked the timeline to jump to the second Event? Cubase user... :D
These settings sound nothing like Metallica. Your Petrucci settings however, are spot on. Also, setting the gate decay to 10ms is for that garbage ‘djent’ sound. Totally neuters your tone
Metallica has some of the worst tones of all time.
GiantxWarrior
So lol. They are rich, you probably are not. Lol
jake friesen That made sense. I’m embarrassed for you. 🤦🏼♂️
live or in studio? Anyway you are so wrong. Metallica's clean tone is THE metal clean tone. So do crunch tone from RtL, MoP, AJFA and of course, Black Album. Sorry, you are deaf
Tomás Valladares 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@tvalla of those that you listed, perhaps the Black Album tone can be considered "good". The earlier album tones straight up suck. They're fizzy and scooped, there's A SHITTON of room sound, and they are generally very "I recorded this in my dad's garage" tones. They're an acquired taste, in the same way that e. g. Swedish death metal tones are, and you like them because the music is so great, but what you cannot say is that they have "good tone". I would even go as far as to say, tone wise, the Load and Reload era was Metallica tone at its finest - chunky and powerful. It started sucking after that, got thinned out, is too dry and overcompressed (and, well, we all know how "good" Death Magnetic sounded...).
So yeah, for a band of such caliber, Metallica actually does have a shit tone.
