Adam 'Nolly' Getgood uses subtle S1 widening and a cab IR first on guitars

Adam 'Nolly' Getgood shows subtle stereo width on guitars using Waves S1 around 1.12, with a cab impulse response as the first processor. He avoids tape emulation or clipping on guitars, then checks guitars and bass together for separation without masking. He outlines frequency-dependent ducking of bass from the kick against guitar lows, ties heaviness to a tank image, and error-checks palm mutes.

Eight metal producers, Jens Bogren, Mike Exeter, Adam "Nolly" Getgood, Josh Middleton, Fredrik Nordström, Buster Odeholm, Dave Otero, and Andrew Scheps, each mixed the same five-minute song and were interviewed about what heaviness means to them. The interviews and mix walkthroughs are on this channel; the full research is in Heaviness in Metal Music Production, Volumes I and II (Routledge). Principal investigators: Dr Jan Herbst and Dr Mark Mynett, University of Huddersfield. Funded by the AHRC (grant AH/T010991/1).
