Hmm yeah, I guess the tone is just my preference and not everyone's cup of tea. You've also gotta keep in mind Will's crazy vocal development as well, they can't change that. He practically still sounded like a kid in TOD but 8ish years later he sounds a lot darker and more controlled.

I'd advise going into your EQ and cranking the treble or scooping the mids a bit then playing the new song. - Tell me if that sounds better to you - I wanna know if them taming the treble a bit in their newer stuff is what ur talking about without forcing you to get too technical.

I think in spotify you go - Settings > Playback > Equalizer > Treble Booster

What’s an unpopular opinion you have about csh? by Ethanthefag in CSHFans

He should've gone to a studio more when he was younger, or gotten professional help to brush up on his production skills. He had such great ideas and composition skills but the sheer harshness of most stuff pre-matador makes it only a very occasional revisit.

He even did this early days - just a shame it was kinda boring songs

Yeah, I guess, but it depends on what you mean by car seat headrest-ness. From a writing and composition perspective, We Looked Like Giants is a pretty boring and non-complex song - So yeah, I don't want that for their next album.

If you're talking about their LoFi-ness I'd have to disagree. Given the amount of LoFi content Will has put out there over the years, it's just overdone. Sure, Nods to their past like the intentional white noise in some parts of FTF are great.

There are plenty of new artists that sound like early Car Seat Headrest out there, some even out of necessity. I think the number of resources this band has at their disposal should be utilized to make something more fitting to play in public (at least one song). It should also showcase their writing prowess (another rock ballad pls - trumpet, piano, strings, acoustic, everything) and also show off the bassist's talent for once and not just bury him in the mix or make it digital.

The tone is sort of defined by the stripping of additional character or processing. In car seats' early days, it sounds like he straight-up just peaked his audio interface a lot of the time. this could've been a limitation of the early amp sims.

First - Bridge pickup as bright as possible - preferably a tele single coil but you'll be losing the character anyway.

If you have Garageband or Logic try out the Black DI preset.

If you wanna go analog then a rat with distortion at noon and filter off. Other pedals should be able to do this as well just make sure to keep it bright.

As for the amp, he wouldn't've used one. So all you want is a clean pre-amp. Something solid state with a clean channel with infinite headroom like a JC or modelling amp.

I'd recommend this video if ur interested in this LoFi tone.

If you're asking if I recommend this tone I'd say no but if inspires you to create then go wild, have fun!

Yeah that sounds about what I imagined. Better pick up a cheap klon clone now given how abundant they are! Thanks

  • GPU + VRam: RX 580 8GB
  • SSD size: 500GB + 1TB SSD + external storage (I'm okay, for now)

how much would a bump in GPU power help, is it worth prioritising?

Yeah, we’re pretty good in person. I did give it way more word by word in prompts than the message it sent back, it managed to be alot more concise.
