I'm not a hard rocker, but this thing makes for some amazing "big stadium guitar stack" sounds. I mean, like huge. Start with the "gymnasium" preset.

And it's killer on toms.

Can't WAIT for the EQ to hit if this is a good example of what you guys are up to!
Hey Mcphoto,
That seems interesting. Would you copy the image of that setting for us? I tried your trick, but I'm not sure of getting the Modulation and Early R sections right.

My favorite preset for vocals so far is the Snare Plate. But the Car Interior preset saved my last mix. I'm loving the early reflections this thing does.



Well, now, after more than two months working with the Redline, I can report again. The Redline is actually in my 'I can't live without' status. This, and the Fatso UBK Mod, are the best buys I've done this year. I'm so happy with it. I hope the Eq is this awesome too.
