This is track seven of my new 100% instrumental album. This track is mainly made with BIAB using _ROAM.STY adding 674: Organ, B3, Background Blues Roadhouse Ev 120. Exported to LogicProX for additional instrument and ambience + SoloGuitar, and finally mixed and mastered by using iZotope Neutron 3 and iZotope Ozone 8. https://youtu.be/JuxZYDM0EIc

Love the tone of your guitar. If I may ask what did you use to get it?
Your playing is very impressive and your mix is spot on.
This is really good!

Thank you to Scott, Gregg and Mario for your kind reviews - I'm slightly blushing  The guitar I used is my Ibanez AFS Artcore using both the bridge and the neck PU. (I use 0.9 strings to give it more treble) The guitar is connected straight into a Line signal on my Focusrite Scarlett 8i-18. Everything else is software within my DAW Logic Pro X Noise gate: Fast Gate (Threshold -72db, Reduction -100db, Attack 2ms, Hold 0ms, Release 20ms, High Cutoff 1200hz, Low Cutoff 20hz) Pedalboard: Squash Compressor (Sustain -34db, Level 4.0db, Attack Slow) Tube Burner (Fat, Low 8.1db, Mid 1004hz, Mid Gain -1.3db, High -1.3db, Tone 4900hz, Bias 0.1db, Squash 55.5, Drive 15.3 db, Output -8.3db) Blue Echo (Synch to 120 bpm, Time 1/4t, Repeats 78%, Mix 34.75%, Tone Cut low) AMP Model Model - Customized, AMP - Large Blackface Amp, Cabinet - Silverface 2x12, Mic - Dynamic 421 Microphone centered on the right Speaker unit and as far away as possible (EQ: Gain - 5.2, Bass - 6.8, Mids - 6.2, Treble - 5.3) (Reverb - off) (Effects - off) Presence - 6.3, Master - 10 Platinum Verb Early Reflections: Room size - 48m, Predelay - 6ms, Room Shape - 6, Stereo Base - 2.0m, Balance: - 18% Early Reflections & 82% Reverb, Output: Dry - 95%, Wet - 25%. Reverb: Initial Delay - 0ms, Spread - 30%, Crossover - 200hz, Low Ration - 56%, Low Freq Level -12db, High Cut - 3000hz, Density - 85%, Diffusion - 71%, Reverb Time - 1.85 sec EQ I cut freq under 50 hz quite agressive, I raise a bit around 100 hz, then I cut 8db at 400hz and at 800hz I cut 12 db. I raise 11 db at 6500hz (using a bell curve) Compressor Studio FET Threshold -26.5db, Ratio 4.1:1, Attack 14ms, Release 150ms, Make Up +1.5 db, Auto Gain - Off, Attack/Release - Auto. Mix 66.5% Output, Distotion - soft, Limiter - off I have added some auto cleanup using iZotope RX7 Connect. After I bounced the track used iZotope Neutron 3 to set the sound and dynamics and added a 6.6s chorused Reverb on Bus 1 (-16.2 db) and Another Tripplet 1/4t (120bpm) 68% Feedback Tape Echo on Bus 2 (-14.0 db) and finally in "Verse and Chorus 2" I added a Phaser and a Stereo Spreader on Bus 3 (-9.0db) to set the guitar in the mix as I desired. If you reached this long - I hope the explanation made sense. In this link you can find the rest of the album on YouTube It is also available on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, Google Music, Amazon and more Thank you for listening

Ennio Morricone and Hank Marvin (Shadows) has served as inspiration - it is always good to look up to the true masters
