sounds pretty effin good. especially for a home recording. the music is tight, tone isnt all muddy/scoopy. drums sound good. good playing.

what kind of recording equipment do you have?

Nice, reminds me a lot of Dark Tranquillity and mid-90's In Flames, a very good thing if you ask me. You just convinced me 100% that the x2n is the bridge PU I'm getting. It sounds so... natural and organic in a sense.

Nice I enjoyed it. You don't use any amps or pedals? Just the mixer and that Pod effect processor and you connect it directly from your outputs to your sound card without using any mics to record anything?
