Thread: SGF Tone Duplication Contest

  1. #1

    SGF Tone Duplication Contest

    The sign ups start now and end 2 weeks from today. (10/20/2011)
    Then there will be 2 weeks for you to make a video of yourself playing the song which wont be shown until after the entry time has ended.

    It is a majority vote by the forum members of who wins. *cough* probably lieb *cough*

    The song to be played will be determined here in this thread by the end of the sign up period. It may be found that you can pick any song and any band and that we will find how close it sounds to that song/bands tone.

    Ill put the entries here so post under me that you want in and ill put you down here.


    Entered:

    Spider
    Pete
    JC
    Leib
    Mako
    iLoki
    Tyler?? WTF why am I in this?

    RULES

    1. Any song by any artist can be selected
    2. Backing tracks are allowed as long as your guitar is easily audible over the track
    3. Sound/Video clip provided for your contest entry must be at least 30 seconds long. Solos are not necessary unless the solo is the tone you are attempting to duplicate. If this is the case, the entry can be less than 30 seconds long if the solo is less than 30 seconds long.
    4. The real song must be provided in the same post as your contest entry
    5. No voting for yourself
    6. No getting pissed off if you don't win. Doing so will result in change of title to "sore loser"

    I vote Master of Puppets by Metallica.

    jkjk. I don't think I'm going to enter because I'm still dicking around with my amp to figure out how to get all the tones I want. If someone can figure out how to get me closer to an A7X tone, I'll be a happy camper.

    I'm interested to see how this contest goes though!

    I know. I have, but no one can agree. I've seen like ten completely different settings, and none of them are really "wrong" because their songs use different tones, but they're not the one I'm looking for. I've messed around with it and gotten close, but it sounds a little washed out. There's so many settings with all the distortion modelings and stuff. Just gotta keep trying. I'll nail it eventually :P

    Damn I wish I still had my ATX. I could nail slipknot tone. We could do psychosocial (solo not necessary, I know some might not be able to play it) and everybody with a 7 string would only have to drop the low B down 1 step. Or down with the sickness by disturbed. That song is fairly simple, not dropped too much either. I think I'll do both of them.

    Avenged Sevenfold should be banned, imo. Just cause so many of you have syn guitars and amps with preset sevenfold tones
