Thanks for your reply and that it sounds good to you.

That's my guitar rig:

- Line6 DT50/212
- Line6 POD HD 500
- Line6 James Tyler Variax 59 + 69

All parts are played as Overdubs with my Guitar and the Looper function of the POD HD500. What you hear I will play (at least that's is actually my idea) later in a Live performance, meaning that I play all guitar parts sequentially as Overdubs in real time. Once the background Overdubs are looped I do my improvisation.

The effects I used are mainly from the POD HD500. Per Overdub I have built up a separate signal chain of effects and store that as a separate preset which I can activate with my footpedal. For some lead parts I increased the Drive parameter of the amp model and the drive paramter of the Tube Screamer (one effect of the POD HD500).

The recording itself was done with Cubase. Therefore I linked the HD500 with XLR-cables to an TASCAM audiointerface. For Live performnace I use my DT50/212 for tube driven amplification.

For the final mixing I have used some Compressor Effects in Cubase and placed the different tracks in a stereo panorama to get a roomy atmosphere.

Hope that answers your questions.

All the best, wolbai
