Brown Sound 78/79 for TONEX takes you on an in-depth exploration of the legendary guitar tones that helped shape modern rock. Using period-accurate gear and meticulous attention to detail, this collection includes 50 Tone Models that replicate the distinctive sound of the rock icon's first two pioneering albums.

In this video, Jay Guitar shares tips on how to use the Brown Sound collection with T-RackS plug-ins, Tape Echo and Sunset Sound Studio Reverb to achieve those tones even more effectively inside your DAW. Have a look.

I've worked this way for years, and it works great. It glues the tracks together because the effects are common to all of the rhythm guitar tracks. All comes together and melts into this wonderful soundscape.

It's pretty simple when you follow the steps I showed you. Save it as a template, and you're ready whenever you want to do that whole Van Halen thing.

Pro Tip: A great way to quickly start achieving those album sounds is by using the "Roth Hogarth St1 EGT Chamber" preset for Sunset Sound, available for free to registered owners through the IK Product Manager.
