Hello,
I really had trouble to make the distorted guitars in the chorus sound "right". The problem is: It seems like the guitar player recorded one DI-Track and reamped it with two different amps and two mics. Its fine to have 4 different guitars sounds but in the end it is still only one guitar track. All the richness of a double or even quad tracked guitar riff is missing. No matter what i did the guitar riff in the chorus still sounds like one track which has been copied and panned left/right. Big Mono if you wish. Not cool. I also tried the old haas trick but I couldn't make it sound like the way I wanted it so sound. I was very, very close to grab my guitar and record a second track myself =)
Other then that I tried to work with different reverb and delays to give each part of the song a different feel. I`ve also added a kick sample to give the kickdrum just a little bit more "bite" without EQ'ing it to death.
Edit Januar 2020 (Facade by Blitzzz_V2.mp3): Version V2 is a new version with the trick mentioned in this thread (cutting and blending the two chorus parts for the guitar together so you essentially have two guitars playing in the chorus instead of only one).
