Recipes to reproduce sounds ?
I have a very generic question, hoping to get feedback from someone who uses MainStage, but also has used a lot of other gear and also might know of good web sites ?
My buddies and I play covers. Now, I try to select the sounds that resemble the most the original recording, but obviously, it's never quite right.
Is there a web site somewhere that has recipes to use in MainStage to set the different sound engines to get specific sounds from well-known (and not so well-known) songs ?
Is there some other gear on the market that's used by cover bands for which there is such a "recipe" database ?
Or maybe some sound genius has a web site and people ask him for pointers on how to reproduce such and such sound ?
If you're curious, I'm trying to reproduce the sounds from side 1 of Marillion's Misplaced Childhood, as well as Genesis' live performance of Firth of Fifth on the Seconds Out album.
Thanks for any input.
