Harmonica minor blues – fat aplified sound with zero equipment (see the recipe)

March 232010

Improvisation on minor blues. Backing track used without permission from great website onlinejam.org, but you wouldn’t tell them, would ya? :)

TIP on how to get this kind of sound:

1. Download a convolution plugin for the software you are using. In my case it was convolver.sourceforge.net for Audition.
2. Go to http://noisevault.com/ and download impulses from gear you would like to use. In my case it is Pod 6 processor. Impulses are like fingerprints of different setups, which, being applied to a raw sound file, produce a sound imitating certain piece of gear. It was something like Tweed Blues – Fender Bassman.
3. Cup your computer mic very tight and blow some stuff. Please set the sensitivity low, but keep looking that distortion persists. You will get crappy good-for-nothin’ sound. That’s ok.
4. Apply convolution with from a gear which is good for you.
5. It should be fine. And Experiment more!

NAMM ‘10 – Source Audio Multiwave Distortion, Multiwave Bass Distortion & Classic Distortion Demos

February 272010

http://www.premierguitar.com PG’s Rebecca Dirks is On Location in Anaheim, CA, for the 2010 NAMM Show where she visits the Source Audio booth. In this segment, we get to see three of their newest effects pedals — the Multiwave Bass Distortion, Multiwave Distortiong (guitar) and the Classic Distortion.

The Soundblox Multiwave Bass Distortion features the same multi-band process that made the original Multiwave guitar pedal so popular, but this time, the Source Audio engineers adapted the process to compliment the unique frequency range of the bass guitar. Multi-band processing divides a signal into multiple bands then distorts them individually, giving musicians unprecedented levels of sound clarity and note articulation. Bassists can effectively combine complex chords and intervals with distorted tones—the Multiwave eliminates the mush and allows each note to ring clear and true.

Users have access to 23 distinct and modern sounding distortions that go far beyond traditional sounds. They range from normal, for a somewhat traditional distortion curve, to extreme foldback and octave settings for more aggressive and synth-like tones. Each distortion type is further customizable via the drive control, and separate clean and distorted level knobs. This advanced sound control alleviates the tendency for low-end reduction associated with most bass distortion units. The Multiwave Bass is also compatible with the Hot Hand® motion controller, adding even more expressive possibilities.

The Multiwave Distortion features 21 distinctive and modern effects not found on typical distortion pedals. Based on new proprietary algorithms, these range from basic overdrive sounds to aggressive synth-like, octave heavy and extreme foldback settings that go far beyond emulations of typical classic distortions.

The Multiwave Distortions unique Multi-Band mode divides the input signal into several frequency bands, which are distorted separately before being re-combined. Guitarists can play complex distorted chords and each note can be heard with absolute clarity. Several notes can feed back or drone simultaneously while a separate melody is played on top without the typical loss of volume associated with most of other types of distortion. The Multiwave Distortion is also compatible with the Hot Hand® motion sensor. When connected, Hot Hand controls the amount of gain.

The Soundblox Classic Distortion packs 4 tube amp and 8 fuzz box overdrive tones plus a Clean Boost/Tone mode into one compact and easy to use pedal. Unlike other products, which attempt to digitally clone, model or emulate vintage gear, the organic tones of the Soundblox Pro Classic Distortion are the result of a five-year listening study and iterative algorithm design process involving over 40 classic pedals and extensive artist evaluation. Plus, the Classic Distortion is Hot Hand® ready for even more expressive capabilities.

Carvin CS6 California Single + Ibanez Tube King (TK999HT) + Ibanez TBX150R sound demo

November 212009

Showing the versatility and tone of my new axe, Carvin CS6. I’m using the guitar’s volume control to go from clean to distortion. It has coil taps so you can get some strat-ish sound out of it too.

The setting on the Tubeking is Bass +3; Mid +5; High -2 (Tubeking has active eq); Gain 5; Level 6.5; and Noise gate off. Also, I replaced the stock tube with Tungsol 12ax7 but the stock tube sounded just fine.

The setting on the TBX is Bass 1; Mid 2; and High 0 and this too has an active eq. The gain nob is at 3 and level was around 6 on the clean channel without the over drive switch on.

I also used the zoom g2. 1u pedal but only to add slight delay.
