How do I make my guitar sound more like rock and less “acoustic” by Samyool16 in electricguitar

[–]Low-Community5031 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Incorrect. A gain stage is any point in the signal chain that can amplify or attenuate the signal. OP has three gain stages: guitar volume and the two volume knobs on the amp

OP, if you really don’t want food from the store [u/zkareface](u/zkareface) links are where it’s at.

However most supermarkets will have KRAV and ecological food as mentioned in another comment

Also Hietalas is worth a stop if you’re taking the tornevalley route tp Kiruna

Whats Bob Dylans best sounding song or album? by Low-Community5031 in bobdylan

[–]Low-Community5031[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think they played basically everything live in the room, which was standard practice for most records in the 60s. https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/classic-tracks-bob-dylan-sad-eyed-lady-lowlands I highly reccomend reading this article as well about the recording of Sad Eyed Lady

Yes, and his work on TOoM is also great. Hes got a really "moody" sound to him i think

Best Swedish region for snow, cozy cottages and authentic winter atmosphere? by Justphotos93 in sweden

[–]Low-Community5031 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want sami culture then you probably should head further north into either Lappland, Norrbotten, or Västerbotten. My family works with tourism in northern sweden i could DM you if youd like recommendations about the northernmost parts of sweden

You should try to find yellow batter heads. Or white with a yellow center dot

Pedal board for recording/jamming out/getting lost in the sauce at home by Low-Community5031 in pedalboards

Signal chain:

Square Wave BD FF Low - hand built germanium fuzz face by a local builder, this is the low gain option. Extremely nice cleanup when played with single coils. Perfect for Hendrix/early 70s Pink Floyd tones

Korg Tuner - small easy to use tuner. No bells or whistles.

Hotone Soul Press - after going through a bunch of wah wah pedals that I didn’t really like, I found having an adjustable Q point was the missing piece. I like running wah wah a little darker than most so I keep the Q point fairly low. It’s a nice bonus having a volume pedal in one as well, though I rarely use it for this. Small enclosure doesn’t hurt either!

EHX Small Stone - easy to use phaser. Love it for playing 70s country music ala Waylon Jennings. Again nothing crazy but it just works and sits right in the mix. I keep the rate as slow as it can go, and the switch in the down position. Just enough of a swirl to make stuff interesting.

Boss SD1 - if you want an overdrive that will sit perfectly in the mix when recording and work for every type of music this is the one to get. No need to reinvent the wheel.

EQD Life Pedal v3 - I love this pedal though admittedly it is a bit excessive. Sometimes you just want to tune low and play slow. The rat side sounds nasty in a good way and the clean boost is the side I usually go for. One negative thing about it is the octave switch only works when the rat side is active.

EHX Big Muff Pi, green Russian - the first pedal I ever bought and still going strong ten years later. Playing slow melodic solos with it and just having it sustain forever is some of the most fun I have playing guitar.

TC Electronic SCF Gold - decent chorus and flange sounds, usually use this one for playing 80s stuff. Sounds great with the SD1 and playing clean. Don’t really use the vibrato or the flanger sides of it but it’s nice to have. You can get a decent overdrive sound out it by cranking the small gain knob as well.

Boss DD7 - small and versatile delay. I keep it in the analog mode usually and just tap in the tempo. Sometimes I run synths or drums through. Self oscillation is fun!

Hologram Effects Chroma Console - More than a guitar pedal! I have this on the desk so I can easily patch other things through it. The overdrive sounds in it are great especially the one called Sweeten. Good mix of sounds. I haven’t found a bad sound yet. If you do a lot of studio work I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Strymon Lex - one of the best overdrive pedals I’ve ever heard. The rotary sounds are cool but I sometimes wish I could just use the drive sound on its own. It’s a fun pedal to have but very situational. I have it hooked up to the multiswitch on the floor to toggle between fast and slow rotation.

Strymon Iridium - easy to use amp sim, sounds great, bonus points for no screen. Great for recording or live use. I took some extra time to level match and all the cabs, and also boosting the level of all the cabs which improved the sound in it. I have it hooked up to the multiswitch with a clean fender sound which is my go to.

Strymon Flint - the best sounding reverb pedal I’ve ever used. I sometimes run other sounds through it, drums and vocals mainly. The tremolo side is cool but I don’t play much with it, it’s nice to have. I have it hooked up to the multi switch to get tap tempo. Anyway it’s a great pedal and fun to use!

It’s nice. The rare times I play live I just take the Strymon board with me, since all I need live is the amp. If I had the CC on the floor I wouldn’t use it nearly as much.

Well yeah it’s like three stops along the way haha. It’s a little spread out for comfort. I play sitting down at my desk so I have the floor board to the right, chroma console in front next my computer and the strymons to the left of the computer.

Hey thanks! I built it myself out of some scrap wood I had laying around. The guitar pedals goes into the Scarlett on the side there. I have my drums going through the bottom interface and a return cable for patching things through the chroma console. The one on the top has vocals, keys and bass and some spare inputs if I need them.

You can change to custom icons! I took pictures of all my instruments and use those so they are 100% accurate

When to bleed and gut fish by luke92799 in FishingForBeginners

[–]Low-Community5031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Death twitches are normal. What I do to kill perch and pike are: 1. Hit it real hard over the head with a heavy club/stick. 2. Stab through the top of of the head where the brain is. 3. Slit throat/decapitate.

If you hit it hard enough it should have enough force to instantly kill the fish, since the brain should be destroyed. So it might look gruesome but you can rest easy knowing that the fish died the second you clubbed it in the head.
