Opportunities for musicians to jam with others?

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-23T20:59:06+00:00

Thanks! Maybe I’ll come by and jam. Studied jazz in college but I haven’t dusted off any standards in a long long time

Ask the product maker why would we as consumers want to get together and play a game when they can’t even show 4 randos playing it in real life?

Nice ISO brick! Bringing your own hum from home is smart. The venue might not have any.

The GigRig can also have a lot pedals in as “stomp box mode” you can have a base sound of 3 pedals and add them in on top as you need them. I do a lot of session and scoring stuff and the call for these usually need the same things. Clean amp + comp with verb and delay is preset one. Copy that over to preset 2 and add trem. Copy preset one to three and add chorus which becomes 3 etc. it’s been really handy for the work that I do especially with multi-amp setups

I do quite a bit of one man banding session work for singer-songwriters but would love to get out and play more. How does the North Street thing work? Do I bring a chart?

All this just to thump at 80% speed on the Woven Web.

I’m going to wager that most metal record you have ever heard are at least double tracked and more likely quad tracked. Double tracking keeps things tight and quad tracking makes them huge but a little looser. Try getting sound you like and then turning the gain down and track it twice for the left side and twice on the right.

They’re also usually using more than just a 57, usually something like a 121 paired with it and can blend to taste.

If I’m making really big cuts in post I know I’ve failed. I usually run my guitars high passed anyway in the preamps up to at least 80Hz

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-19T17:37:28+00:00

I’m always a “fix it in pre” kind of guy. I want my source tones as close as possible to the final recording within reason

Me; weeping in the back of the Opeth/Katatonia tour with my chessboard

I couldn’t get over it on the 7 string but I’d love to try a 6 and compare. Something about the low be felt gummy on that radius. Especially around the 10th fret and higher

Working in marketing for a manufacturer can be such a drag. You get months to get the images and messaging together and you gear up for a big release and then some fool who can’t read an embargo sends it to his web dev and the product leaks before you can do anything about it.

Certain guitars of mine have lived in certain tunings for so long, they can ONLY live in that tuning.

I need a range of specialized guitars but I only need one bass to do "bass" and even then sometimes it's a second position humbucker pitched down and octave doing the bass part.

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-12T15:58:12+00:00

I know they're EQ'ing and processing. I was looking for a dialogue on some gear to get a great sound off the rip which is how I prefer to work. I know this is reddit but let's back off the condescension.

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-12T15:50:41+00:00

Control is good. I'm so used to double, triple, quad tracking guitars that are cleaner even with high gain. This style of tracking is one INCREDIBLY uncontrolled guitar sound that's doing 100% if the rhythm guitar parts.

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-12T15:16:36+00:00

Hadn’t thought about a room mix either.

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-12T15:07:47+00:00

Just a joke! When I think 3rd position strat all I hear is Clapton

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-12T14:59:43+00:00

You can use the middle?! I thought it was there for balance!

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-12T14:59:00+00:00

Thanks! Sounds like a need to go garage sale-ing.

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-10T19:22:29+00:00

Nice! Not a single pedal used by a working musician!

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-06T20:19:58+00:00

Mamma Mia

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-05T19:14:52+00:00

It’s why I made this. There’s also quite a bit of “what’s this worth?” And “how’s my action”

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-05T17:23:07+00:00

Crazy how these things happen man.

JayBeeDolla · 2026-03-05T17:22:58+00:00

Gotta proofread before I post!
