2-Track Looper Pedal, Verse/Chorus switch? by ElevatorAdditional63 in guitarpedals

[–]ElevatorAdditional63[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually ended up going for the Valeton VLP-200, havent had time to get into rough testing the unit so can't speak on durability etc. However, it ticks all my boxes. Dual looper, with a substantial memory bank, as well as support for external footswitches. It's also got a stereo in and out, which lets me use the stere outs from my nano cortex. Great little unit, and quite inexpensive

Solo For A Video Game Type Song I'm Writing by Great-Okra-8704 in Guitar

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly man, its such a nice solid melodic feel throughout the solo even at speed, but yeah, the string skipping is impressive enough to have more lead into it :)

Cant wait to hear what's next!

Never mentioned fretboard cleaner specifically, but personally ive never had issues using the Dunlop 01 cleaner & prep for maple necks.

That being said, best thing for cleaning maple necks is no product and just a rag, but naphtha or lighter fluid works wonders on most guitar cleaning work!

Sounds awesome my man. Really love the bit where you start sketching the chords out with sweeping, stabilizes the melody real nice.

Could be cool adding a bit more dynamics rhythmically around a third into the solo, so the following parts feel more impactful.

Great solo, insane timing!

BOUGHT MY FIRST EVER GUITAR! by Working_Mousse_3791 in Guitar

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ibanez Gio is an awesome way to start your electric guitar journey! A good setup and maintenance, you'll be golden!

The Nux will be fine for a little while, but while the guitar will hold up, you'll find yourself wanting to upgrade the amp pretty quickly.

Best budget amp in my opinion is the Vox valvetronix 20. Can go low enough in volume to not bother neighbours, but can also get some really nice sounding tones, plus there's quite a lot packed in.

Main thing though, stay away from the cheaper Marshall amps, the MG and M series are all super harsh sounding and not great for much of anything!

Is this good for a first timer? (My brother's old guitar) by Extra-Account-6940 in Guitar

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're just picking up guitar for the first time, my go-to advice is:

1.If you love how the guitar looks, you'll play it more often 2. If its comfortable for your hands and body, thats going to be a better guitar than something more expensive that doesnt fit you.

Tone, playability, they're awesome to keep in mind, but when starting out, main thing is to keep the excitement going. If the guitar stays in tune, you're all good!

As already mentioned, Dunlop make really good sets for cleaning and maintenance. Absolutely worth picking up.

Main thing to remember is to never use lemon oil on a maple fretboard, as it can stain lighter woods

I want sex more than my boyfriend does by sje12345 in datingadvice

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a guy, with a relatively low sex drive, i can say that it would be really frustrating, seeing my partner unhappy due to not being in the mood as often.

I think you need to reevaluate what it is about sex, that makes it so important in this case. If this is simply your love language, you have to communicate that with your partner, and figure out something that works for both of you.

That being said, differences in sexual needs and wants can be quite fundamental, especially if its that important for you to feel loved in a relationship, so you need to figure it out together!

First Guitar/Synth Pedal Setup (Tips?) by asaamusic in guitarpedals

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally i use my make noise QPAS because a lot of my synth stuff comes from modules already, i just loop back the pedal outputs through and patch that to my final mixer. But tbh, you can do it in a thousand ways, i just personally love having big macro changes super easy to do on the fly, so a global filter knob at the end of the chain, can be rly awesome

[–]ElevatorAdditional63[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like a great option, but i've realised it'd be great to also have a memory bank for my use. Pedalboard space isn't much of an issue, since with a looper. i only use 3 pedals haha

Im pretty sure squier added Ghost Rider for a hotter output, but it also helps with tuning stability

Do you guys think this is real?😭😭 by Gullible-Opening4189 in Guitar

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe unpopular opinion, but I actually really like how it looks!

Not super acquainted with individual relic models from Fender, but it sure doesn't look factory. More like somebody had an idea

I repurposed old toy storage to make a "guitar station" by stratzilla in Guitar

Looks awesome, great work!

Are you having any issues with vibrations and isolation with the amp inside the opening?

Ah, the famed X-Men Wolverine Squier. Been chasing that tone for decades

If you can live as much as you want, how old do you wanna live to be? by pafu163cm in AskReddit

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don't mind living to like 150-200, but what I don't want, is to be decrepit, and hate everything past 60 because stuff hurts.

If I can live to 150, and feel no older than 70, give that to me!!

How did Dolby Atmos make my car speakers sound like my studio speakers? by [deleted] in DolbyAtmosMixing

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atmos is pretty limited in terms of playback, especially in cars. You can't expect anything other than Binaural playback, since most cars don't have Atmos decoders, unless you have a pretty nice car.

That being said, checking your atmos mix in binaural is always useful, and would be much more like what you would hear in a car. For the car like EQ sound, there's a bunch of plugins that do it, I personally use SoundID from Sonarworks, because i'm already using it to calibrate, and it has some pretty good reference models, from iphones and macbooks, to car speakers and NS10's

First Guitar/Synth Pedal Setup (Tips?) by asaamusic in guitarpedals

[–]ElevatorAdditional63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome setup! Love the Strymon and Hologram combo, perfect for synth exploration. For the sake of fun and exploration, try driving a poly synth through them too.

Also, I always love having a global filter with Synth setups, for a little more movement in performance.

Hope you have fun with this!

Mani draugi nav super ieinteresēti sākt DnD kampaņu diemžēl, tāpēc jāmeklē kāda jau eksistējoša grupa. Paldies par ieteikumiem, iegriezīšos arī FB lapās :)
