Toontrack has released a new expansion for EZmix 3 featuring a collection of guitar and bass tones based on the personal amp collection of Meshuggah’s Fredrik Thordendal.
In Thordendal Guitars EZmix Pack Fredrik’s chronicled and captured some of his personal as well as Meshuggah milestone moments in terms of tone.
Prepare for an odyssey that’ll take you from the rock-tinged fuzz of the early 1970s, through the thrash-dominated 1980s and leading up to the new millennium of transformatively heavy seven- and eight-string chugs that laid the groundwork for the monumental Meshuggah sound. In addition to a wealth of rhythm tones as well as a few renditions of Fredrik’s signature manic lead sounds, this pack also covers several bass tones designed to work in any facet of hard rock and metal, giving you the perfect production package for any metal songwriter.
All tones were based on parts of Fredrik’s personal collection of amps and captured in his own studio 33 together with engineer Daniel Bergstrand. Created using neural network and dynamic IR technology, these tones will give you snapshot prints encompassing the entire in-studio signal chain – from the amp and the cabinet to the mics and the very studio room itself. With every preset having its own set of custom controls, you’ll be able to tweak the underlying parameters of the tones so that they perfectly suit your needs.
The EZmix Pack is priced 39 EUR / $39 USD at the Toontrack store and from distributor Best Service.
