After recording the drums and bass, we moved on to guitar with the Mézga Aladár Sound System. With Söpi, we built the unique recording chain necessary for the Mézga guitar sound, which consisted of the following elements: We recorded the clean guitars through the Roland Jazz Chorus 120, which stood alone in the middle recording room. An Audio-Technica ATM-650 was placed in front of the combo. With the help of a DI box and a reamp device, we routed the guitar signal. Söpi often uses sick sounds, which he conjures up from the Line6 floor multi. We also routed the signal from the multi into the Roland, so that we could record his sound through a microphone instead of just a direct line. Finally, for the crunchier and distorted guitar tracks, we mainly used the Vox NightTrain 15 head, which we sent into the Marshall Vintage 1960 AX 4x12 cabinet waiting in the main recording room. The sound of this cabinet was captured by an Electro-Voice RE-20 microphone and sent to the mixing console. We also used the Marshall Class 5 head for some songs. Söpi played the tracks very skillfully and disciplinedly. All of them were recorded in duplicate to make his job even harder. Indeed, his reward will come during mixing, as we'll be able to achieve a thick and rich sound. Some photos and a video from the events.
