Craig Peters from Soundiron recently released his full-fledged guitar sample library, Axe Machina. In this video, I will show you a metal demo created entirely using Axe Machina for the guitars, and do an in-depth comparison of Axe Machina, Shreddage 3 Hydra (Impact Soundworks) and Odin II (Solemn Tones). I dive deep into comparing how each library sounds in different kinds of common metal guitar passages: from strumming, chugging, and djent, to fast riffs, leads and solos.
