Create Two Different Guitar Tones<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Two-guitar-tones.webp\" alt=\"electric guitar and amp\" class=\"wp-image-17867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Two-guitar-tones.webp 700w, https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Two-guitar-tones-300x150.webp 300w, https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Two-guitar-tones-18x9.webp 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To properly double-track guitars, you must create two different guitar tones and record them separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many beginners make a mistake when they record once and then copy the track. That&#8217;s not the way double tracking works for electric guitars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You must always record the same part twice with different tones. However, these guitar tones must sound good together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to create two unique guitar tones, you have various options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use different guitars<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use different amps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Record with different microphones<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if you use a single-coil guitar for the first tone, use a humbucker guitar for the second one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or use a different amp or speaker for each guitar. And if you use microphones to record your guitars, use different mics or mic combinations for each guitar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal is to have two tones with unique characteristics. So, one guitar could have more mid-range than the other and the second one could have more highs than the first one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But when you play two tones together, they must sound good and sit well in the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e02f3111 cta-content gbp-section--background\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-dcbb4b03\">\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-c6067394 gb-headline-text\">T\u00e9l\u00e9chargement gratuit : Poster du tableau de fr\u00e9quences EQ<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-4b436fcd gb-headline-text\">La plage de fr\u00e9quences de chaque instrument sur un seul tableau cod\u00e9 par couleur.

Then create another track and record the same guitar part with the second guitar tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This way, you will have two guitar tracks with the same part but with different sounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, read my guide about recording electric guitars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then you need to pan guitars on both sides which will give guitar tracks a stereo width and they will sound huge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Panning is a popular method of modern recording and every song uses it for various instruments and tracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/fr\/blog\/panning-guitars\">Guitar panning<\/a> is a must for almost every song, especially in heavy music because without it, your guitar tracks won&#8217;t sound good and powerful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it&#8217;s very simple to pan guitars in the mix. Just take the first guitar and pan it on the left side by 100% and pan the second guitar on the right side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, you will hear the first guitar in the left speaker and the second guitar in the right speaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This way you create a stereo sound for guitars and also it creates the space for other tracks to live in the center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Apply Cosmetic EQing<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"280\" src=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Cosmetic-EQing-on-guitars.webp\" alt=\"EQ plugin on the monitor\" class=\"wp-image-17869\" srcset=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Cosmetic-EQing-on-guitars.webp 700w, https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Cosmetic-EQing-on-guitars-300x120.webp 300w, https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Cosmetic-EQing-on-guitars-18x7.webp 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, you need to apply EQ to both guitar tracks separately but you don&#8217;t need to do full EQing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The full <a href=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/fr\/blog\/mixing-heavy-guitars\">mixing for the guitar<\/a> starts later. For now, you just need to apply cosmetic EQ to remove excessive frequencies in very low and high ranges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to remove unnecessary frequencies from each guitar track, you need to <a href=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/fr\/blog\/eq-pass-filters\">use EQ filters<\/a> &#8211; high pass and low pass filters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use HPF to remove low frequencies and LPF to remove excessive high frequencies. Do this for both guitars separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And remember that you don&#8217;t need to do hard EQing. Don&#8217;t cut too many frequencies because you will do the proper EQing for guitars later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This will get rid of unnecessary frequencies and both guitar tones will become a little bit cleaner which will make the mixing process easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Send Guitars To A Bus Track<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And finally, you need to create a bus track for the guitar and send both guitar tracks to that bust track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is essential because you treat it like one guitar and that&#8217;s very helpful in mixing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This way there is more chance to <a href=\"https:\/\/audiblegenius.com\/fr\/blog\/mixing-mistakes\">avoid mixing mistakes<\/a> and simply, it&#8217;s easier to mix guitars with only one track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, create a bus track and send both signals to it. Now, both guitar signal goes to a bus track, and then it goes to the master track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It becomes your main guitar track and you can add EQ and other plugins to do regular mixing.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e02f3111 cta-content gbp-section--background\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-dcbb4b03\">\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-c6067394 gb-headline-text\">T\u00e9l\u00e9chargement gratuit : Poster du tableau de fr\u00e9quences EQ<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-4b436fcd gb-headline-text\">La plage de fr\u00e9quences de chaque instrument sur un seul tableau cod\u00e9 par couleur.
