Breakin the Law - Cover

Robert,
 
Nice work, guitars sound awesome.  Always liked this song and you definitely did it justice.   I like the vocalist too, he did a good job capturing Halford's style.
 
Regards

Robert, this is hot - you guys sound great. The vocalist is fantastic and you are one talented guitar player. Excellent.

 

Nice job, Robert.  You guys had it cookin.

Oh hell yes!
Nice to see someone else posting some rock/metal stuff on here.
 
Overall, I'd say you guys did a good job. If I was going to offer some constructive criticism, I'd say the following...
Although the singers voice was pretty much perfect for judas priest covers, there were times when he was off-key (not including the intentional times right before the chorus) and off-time. The guitars sounded kind of...scrawny, is the word that comes to mind. I know you were most likely trying to get the guitars as close to the original as possible, but bumping up the lower frequencies just a touch, and using more than one guitar track would've really improved the sound.
 
As far as the playing goes, you were spot on. Very good job. It was a cool touch to hear the sirens in there.
8/10 imo
 
 

Thanks for checking it out and all the nice comments. I appreciate it very much!

Thanks Time. I appreciate it!

I love this, Robert.  Your skills at capturing a mood are remarkable.  So is your playing!  Encore!!

Thanks for the kind words everyone! I appreciate it.
 
GH - My signal path is a Blackstar HT-5 into my Octa-Capture. On the tracks I use the channel compressor. I compress it to about -8db of gain reduction, get the level right between on and off and then move the mix knob to around 40% so more of the original comes through. The attack is longer and the release is shorter. I usually put my Ibanez on the left and my Les Paul on the right and send each to one bus. I use the buss compressor the same as the channel compressors again leaving more clean sound VS. the compressed sound. I then use a IK LA-2A EMU with only -.5 db of gain reduction with the switch on compress. It reads like I'm using a lot of compression but I'm only using very little. It's more of an effect. Ever since I started doing it this way, I've been getting a chunkier sound. When I add reverb, I solo the guitar tracks and start/stop until till it's there but not overdone. I wish the IK plugs had mix knobs because they sound better but the PC modules work.
 
Thanks again!!!

Great job!

I'm not familiar with this number but it sounds great to me!  I luv the sound effects.
