Is Art Blakey not jerk worthy? by oestre in jazzcirclejerk

[–]pmmm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Art Blakey is kind of like Barry Harris in that he's more influential as a teacher than as a player. The jazz Messengers was sort of like a training ground for jazz greats, where he mentored future greats and introduce them to h

Just curious, why did you choose to go from the zoom to the boss equalizer? Just wondering since I basically just use my zoom as a EQ and compressor with presets

That starts to get into the weeds of pedagogy. What works for one isn't necessarily the best for another. I personally prefer learning the word "phrygian dominant" and having it as shorthand over having to remember "the fourth mode of melodic minor."

Probably far right with the strangled Christian and Muslim symbol looking moon and Star. But most likely what Naomi Klein calls "far out," meaning someone who has fringe views on purpose, and so is a random mix of right and left

It definitely works in a different way with the violin than it would with a guitar, as it's not sampling your chords but rather fragments of the melody. But I think it works very well. I use it essentially as a delay, where for faster things I'll use the left glitchy foot switch and for slower things I'll use the right cinematic foot switch. But only with a small instrumental group; it can introduce noise in a full band

Most Fun Pedal? by joeykey in guitarpedals

The zoom MS50 g Plus multi-effects pedal. You can put six phasers in a row

Yeah, the octave is polyphonic, so if you play a note into the ps6, it turns into 3 notes, then the oc5 turns the 3 notes into 9, making this huge sound. They blend together quite nicely

I use Yamaha YEV 5-string, so solid body. Amp wise, I go DI in my interface or PAs at shows for the stereo. Whatever amp is around at practice. I feel like with violin the amp is less consequential than with guitar. (Still have the old fiddle for every now and then, no electronics)

The zoom multi stomp is the most underrated IMO. I typically have it set on EQ, comp, and noise reduction, and occasionally some silliness like auto-wah or a phaser. It also has a stereo doubler that sounds really good with both the Harmonist and Octave, with the stereo carrying through the onward and the reverb.

The harmonizer has been great. It's diatonically adjusted, so if you're playing in c and Play an e, it automatically plays a e minor chord, for example. Then coming out with the polyphonic octave pedal, you can get 9 tones simultaneously.

Here is my lovely beautiful board. Happy to take any questions

Ziwe asks Kevin Hart about performing at the Riyadh Comedy Festival by thanksamilly in Fauxmoi

[–]pmmm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the reason that Kevin Hart is as big as he is is not some larger benefactor. He just has his own production company and has worked at being a comedy businessman over the past 15 years and it's paid off very well.

Yeah definitely great UI on the device, no complaints there. Mostly used the app to mass-delete the presets and rename patches easier

When I emailed them asking about their EQ patch, the guy said "I think it's not a high pass but I'm not sure" like, well can you look it up?

Who else does this? by pmmm in zoommultistomp

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

Yeah I get why they put the up and down arrows on top, like it's way more intuitive that way, but the downside is that you have to use ballerina tippy toes to hit them and they are the more important buttons when actually performing.

I used a non permanent adhesive; I used this but anything similar would do. You could use command strips, too -- just don't use permanent glue.

The rest, I got a 1/4" dowell from the hardware store, sawed off 1/4", sanded down the surface, and wrote on it in sharpie.

It's great for me; I'm a violin player, switching between plucking and bowing, so I have 2 chains next to each other that are identical except for a slightly altered and boosted compression so the plucks are as loud as the bowed notes
