Attack on the Ultra xl

[progdeathcoreguitar]

Hey everyone, im having issues with my stock Ultra Xl module. It seems to have a very high attack, especially on sweeping. now i know it is my eq settings, but ihave tampered with the blasted thing for a while and have not fixed the issue at all. Can anyone give me a ball park are on the eq settings that dont have this problem? i still plan on tinkering a little (also involving moding probably) but idk yet. Input appreciated

Oh i forgot to add that i play an ibanez rg5ex1 with active emg 81 85 through a monster cable

"High" attack?

Don't know where your gain is, but try turning it down

 

[progdeathcoreguitar]

It sounds as if their is more "attack" or the actual striking of the string then their is tone to the notes

 

[Nightdare]

what are the knobs set to?

 

[progdeathcoreguitar]

lows to 1 o clock mids to 2 oclock and his three o clock. gain is just short of full, and density and presence about 10 o clock

 

[Nightdare]

Then I repeat:

Turn the gain down!

(Selecting neck p'up will help as well)

 

[progdeathcoreguitar]

I do select the neck pick up. thats why i aws worried about the attack, cause the neck pick up supposed to have alot lower attack
