I made a a heavy metal song I wrote just for fun but the quality in the end was blurry after using all inbuilt effects, can you guys suggest some better settings to blur out the additional noise because of distortion and poly-rhythmic sounds?
1) Better amplification settings
2) How to make the noise in the background due to mod amps I customized to get the desired tone. But it was too noisy in the background and disruptive. Need suggestions.
3) How to channelize your guitar tone in the way you want your music to sound like. I really tried all the mods but couldn't get the desired output. Maybe, it is a combination of some mods I a missing or a better sounding combination for recording metal music specifically. Please suggest if you can relate to this.

I'm not into heavy metal at all, not in the least. But I don't think your problem is directly linked to your genre of music that you created in regards to your question.
Without me asking, it kind of sounds like to me that you may be dealing with a GAIN STAGING issue.
Even plugins can be hit from their input stage too hot, with too much initial signal. When that happens, your plugins won't run as efficiently as they were built for. And you will start to get blurring and distortion from the sum of your tracks doing the same thing.
Plus, if you're recording analog/acoustic instruments, guitar/bass/prc/vocals/etc from a mic or 1/4" instrument cable, then you have to make certain that you have the right balance of audio gain go into your audio interface, into your DAW.
It depends on a couple of different things. But you whole mix shouldn't sound blurry. And especially if you have a lot of tracks clipping with the plugins being used, and then you do something like bus compression and/or limiting on the stereo bus also!
Lot of different scenarios. But all in all, I say it always starts at the source first with audio, and midi.
Hope this gets you going in the right direction.

Thank You! Now that I think about it, that could be the problem I was facing while recording. I need a better setup I guess to get started in the right direction.
