HI everyone,
This is my first question here.
I want to record heavy guitar with sm57 (very dry recording ) in front of my amp.
I will copy the original track and delay it a little bit to create a fatter tone, hard panned right/left (fake double-tracking).
My question is : If I do that, is it necessary to add reverb to both guitar track
to add more spatial effects and bigger sound?
What's the best room size for a reverb on a guitar track, early reflexion and other parameter related to reverb.
Thanks for your help
Serge

There are a few ways of achieving that, but it always is different with any production, thus hard to tell.
Btw, for some fast & dirty demo recordings I am about to try this here, next week:

Also easy and fast is NI's Rammfire.

But, of course, you are not learing how to do it by yourself when using those.

This is the right answer for your question! You may add some reverb to both... but just a little to have more ambience and some plate imaging!

mono/center and solo the guitar and bass first. Mix them so they they complement one another. Do not let the the electric guitar cover the bass guitar up. high pass the electric around 100k. With distortion, the bass guitar does most the magic i believe. otherwise the electric can sound kinda muddy.

imho....I think you'd get a fatter more interesting tone by playing and recording it twice instead of copy/paste.
But if that's not an option then yeah.......what they /// said.

Doing this introduces an effect called comb filtering. That's not to say you definitely shouldn't do it, but it would be to your advantage to understand it and know what is sounds like. Read up on the effect. Then take your two tracks, pan them to the same singles speaker and vary the delay to hear the effect.
