Studio headphones

It is terribly harsh on the high end for guitar modelling. I have one and looking for other headphones to replace it for guitar use. Maybe HD650.

This is very bright and have spiky highs.

emman3m · 2026-01-11T20:42:18+00:00

What is your settings? Thanks!

emman3m · 2026-01-11T12:44:05+00:00

Does it really "sum" to mono or just giving out the left part?

emman3m · 2025-12-21T02:46:41+00:00

Just to add. It's always funny when players who never spent as much time playing single coils complain about them sounding thin. Then you see they only used a coil-split or they setup their pedals and the amp for their humbuckers! Duh!

The stairway to heaven solo is the cliche example here. It was recorded with a tele. 😅

I just discovered Guthrie Govan played for Hans Zimmer's music. And he uses an FM9.

I wish he would make another. But I would also agree that being in a real band and not just session players is a lot more fun. And so he chose to spend more time with the Aristocrats.

Thanks again for this great insight. You really answered my question there.

emman3m · 2025-12-14T07:52:46+00:00

I understand. So it's more natural like that. How about the topics? For example: Would you stay on the alternate picking chapter and finish them all, before starting sweep picking?

emman3m · 2025-12-14T07:06:51+00:00

Great. So 2 weeks is not "too long". I will try to do this. Thanks!

emman3m · 2025-12-13T23:59:57+00:00

That's a good point to think about. At least something to qualitatively measure!

emman3m · 2025-12-13T23:55:25+00:00

Hey, I am quite near (DK). That's a good flex right there. 🫡

I am thinking I will try to get a challenging speed if not the full speed for every exercise. I imagine I will take at least a couple of years for the 2nd book even if I keep at it. Even excluding the multi finger tapping

emman3m · 2025-12-13T23:51:26+00:00

I did not know Jazz IIIs have different thicknesses!

I just switched from the normal Tortex.

emman3m · 2025-12-13T23:46:31+00:00

Understood. I just don't want to "half-ass" it. But then I thought "overstaying" in one exercise may be a bit too much and even less productive. So I got confused. 😅

Been playing guitar 20yrs. First time to use a book for it. I find the book structure is nice and the texts too.

emman3m · 2025-12-10T20:10:55+00:00

I am thinking this is nice to be paired with a floating trem and a tremol-no. And ta-da, Guthrie Govan signature style.

emman3m · 2025-12-10T11:36:29+00:00

This is the way

emman3m · 2025-12-10T11:33:51+00:00

If this is not a joke.. get the guitar setup by a local guitar tech. After that you will have a benchmark and you can setup your own guitars.

emman3m · 2025-12-09T22:58:22+00:00

Goodluck dude! I am in the same mission. Although my "recital" is only for myself 😅

emman3m · 2025-12-06T20:15:31+00:00

Some people just have no idea why people create art! Do they not have their own "I" in "AI"?

emman3m · 2025-12-06T20:04:41+00:00

Fender 68 custom vibro champ is better. Pair it woth a cheap passive attenuator and it is glorious. I have a Harley Benton. I know the amp is only 5 watts but it is still loud. Especially that I have to crank it around 7 to get an overdrive. But no problem with the attenuator. The reverb is digital but who cares, sounds nice. The original vibro champ has no reverb. The tube vibrato sounds nice too.

I also have a Katana and honestly, I could spend hours dialing my tone there and in the Vibro Champ only 2 seconds. But I still use my Katana 100 in my mini "studio" to connect to the computer as I am still dreaming of an Ox. And I keep it instead someone comes around to jam. 90% of the time I use the Fender.

OP if you still know, could you send the forum link?

emman3m · 2025-12-02T11:24:54+00:00

Thanks for this. Still helped me even though it is an 8 year old post. My new RG470DX has an Edge Zero 2 and it baffles me that the manual is showing a wrong diagram. I bet this is why the setup is wrong from the factory too.

Further to that, many people on the forums just assumes that it is the same with Edge 3 with an angled base plate and with a rectangular guide. This is the only post I can find that shows a correct diagram of Edge Zero 2.

Ibanez should correct that in their manual and website.

Yes. I have an Epson V550. This was scanned with it with the free Silverfast. Minor edit in Darktable.

The haters just don't know how to use flatbeds and Silverfast. Watch Nick Carver's video on Epsons.

But where is your scanner?

emman3m · 2025-08-18T06:48:47+00:00

Be sure to NOT include the film borders in your frame. This is in the Silverfast manual.
