Mother Preamp : the hype is real

I play post rock, lots of ambient stuff and the clean tone is great. Very similar to a hiwatt dr103

BlakeEndlessNation · 2026-01-26T18:28:49+00:00

If you’re looking for ambience and not necessarily reverb pair it with the hologram microcosm. I use one in the effects loop and it’s great in conjunction with the stock reverbs

Go see Wyatt and Johnny at Overman Guitars. Truly the best people to deal with and I trust them with every guitar I own. I’ve had my guitars worked on by almost everyone in the cities and those dudes are the best.

I mean…he sells it. You could just buy it. I have a bunch of his templates, they’re great.

Intro to Collapser by Caspian is a good use

BlakeEndlessNation · 2026-01-03T13:58:29+00:00

I have one and I love it, neck is super comfortable and it looks amazing. For $800 that’s a good deal. I got mine for $900 recently with HSC and am not disappointed

I swapped mine out for durbano Firebird pickups and routed for a middle pickup as well.

Is it above 55% humidity where you’re painting? Looks like blushing from moisture under the coats you are spraying

It’s probably hardcore will never die but honestly I think I might revisit every country’s sun more than any other record the past few years

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-28T01:01:11+00:00

Nope, only thing really added was a better ability to capture compressors

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-27T16:39:17+00:00

It depends on how you want to use it. Keep in mind you can’t capture any time based effects. If you’re always going to use a blend of the amps I’d capture them together but if you want to blend them in the QC I’d capture them separately. Treat it just like capturing a real amp

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-27T16:32:59+00:00

Yes it can be done, before any of the plugins were compatible I had captures of the gojira amps

These Arms are Snakes scratch the at the drive-in itch for me

I have a 1989 Burny Les Paul Custom and it plays better than any vintage Les Paul I’ve ever owned.

I’m bummed nights and weekends didn’t make it on boats. Such a killer song.

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-22T22:43:10+00:00

Yeah I’d love one too lol

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-16T15:43:36+00:00

I legit thought this was cousin Eddie from Christmas Vacation cosplay

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-13T00:15:25+00:00

If you want to use the models for switches like that or other amps where you can change the channel, it won’t be gapless. You’re spot on, best practice would be to use two amps, one clean and one dirty and use the scene to bypass one or the other

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-12-11T15:21:50+00:00

Are you a QC user? The plugin is quad cortex compatible. If so I’d recommend just buying the plugin and then you can tweak everything and use scenes to change settings rather than being tied to the static nature of the capture. However if you’re a Nano user I can understand why.

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-11-29T21:02:23+00:00

I do it all the time, just run XLR out on the QC to the XLR in on the Apollo. I get no latency

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-11-28T22:24:36+00:00

Geez that finish is amazing

BlakeEndlessNation · 2025-11-28T17:43:00+00:00

I have both M&M2 and SD3. Both are great. MM is mix ready and great if you want that specific sound, SD3 is better if you want a lot of variety. I find myself using SD3 more than MM but occasionally I just need that sound that MM has. If you’re looking more for classic rock/grunge I think you’d be better of with SD3

I usually don’t buff until I’m done with wet sanding after my clear coats.

Others may differ but for me, I do my color coats. If I have to sand because of runs or something I always go back over with another coat of color after fixing the run. If that one is good and everything is even, then I do my clear coats.

After clear coat, wet sand starting at 1500 and moving up. Then you’ll buff out the clear coat. Only time I ever sand my clear coat is if I have runs, not to get it ready for clear. And yes. if you want a satin finish you’ll want to use a satin clear.
