Kurt Ballou’s guitar tones on “I Can Tell You About Pain”!

So. Many. Mics.

Kurt Ballou explains his guitar tones including the guitar amps, cabs, pickups and more on “I Can Tell You About Pain” by Converge in this clip from his August 2018 Nail The Mix!

He goes over how he blended the various tones (including a Sparrow’s Sons, a Marshall JMP and room mics), does some EQ with Fabfilter Pro Q and goes into more detail about how he dialed in the guitar tones– warning, after watching this you may feel the sudden urge to mic anything and everything around you 🙂
