Andrew Aversa of Impact Soundworks has returned with another tutorial video on how to create a classic metal track with Shreddage 3 virtual guitars. In the third part of the series, Andrew takes a look at rhythms and chugs.
A major strength of the Shreddage series has always been its capacity for hard rock & metal rhythms, particularly palm mute ‘chugs.’ That’s the focus of this third video in my “all virtual instruments” metal tutorial series, which you can watch below.
I’ll show you how (and when) to switch articulations, note lengths, and velocities to make your parts more dynamic and lifelike, along with my thought process. You can use these techniques with many virtual guitars — not just ours — but Shreddage 3 Jupiter does excel with this type of playing.
Visit Impact Soundworks for more information on the Shreddage 3 series of virtual guitar instruments. You can download the project resources for the Nitro track for free in the video description.
