I see the 02 Illuminate preset in multiple videos and can’t get this amazing reverb out of my head! Is it your personal preset or did it come with the pedal? Can you share the settings? I’m obsessed! lol Will be ordering this one
It's a stock preset out of the Illumine. The sounds out of this pedal are just so good! I programmed some user presets by now but the Illuminate still gets a lot of use. If you find more sounds you like in my videos I would happy to share the settings!
@@Andreas_tropicalwinter They really are! And thank you so much!! There is one more sound from the video Experimenting with MOOD, what were the settings to get those high pitched delays? You’re the first person I’ve heard make something beautiful out of that pedal
@@robertttiernan I think I used the Slip mode in Mood. That´s basically a delay pitched up when turned fully CW. Since I wanted more pitch jumps I turned the clock knob in between the notes I played to speed up the repeats.
@@blueberry.soundscapes It's totally not in my control for sure 😅 I am pretty pround of this one, so getting more view would just be a bonus. Sometimes what I like gets less views, while videos I think are pretty bad are going through the roof. I take everything with a smile 😁
@@robertttiernan Thank you, there's always something I think could be better, but it seems like the effort is already worth it by reading such nice comments!
@@Andreas_tropicalwinter First thing, I realised that I’m missing a hardware tuner in my setup. So I’ve added the politune mini to my list! Always wanted to get one
@@blueberry.soundscapes I saw a video the other day the the PolyTune has a pretty good buffer build in, so that a bonus if the board is getting bigger.
Very nice. I didn’t know you could do the looping on the delay selection of the mood. I have the mk2 and love it. How is the delay loop still playing after you turn off the foot switch, do you have a certain dip switch for that? Thx great playing
@@Skiptothebeat007 Yeah, Mood is such a deep pedal to dive into! When the Feedback on the Delay side is maxed out, it doesn't go into self-oscillation, but won't stop the feedback even when you disengage the pedal. After your done you have to set the feedback back when mood is not in use, otherwise even disengaged, Mood will Loop konstant and noise will start to occur out of nowhere. Maybe mkll doesn't do that, but just in case you wonder why your rig is somewhat noisy.
I wish I knew how to use the amp sims correctly. I had the iridium at one point but my sound still sounded weak through the studio speakers compared to using real amps.
@@exploringwithasmr It definitely has a learning curve to it. For me, the Acs1 works perfect, but it only started to sound the way I want when I used other IRs. The stock ones are good, but I wasn't happy with the way my pedals sounded. was not
I love your philosophy about the journey and not the result.. Every night I sit in front of my 17 pedal Ambient Pedalboard with headphones on and get lost in discovery as you are doing now.. Sometimes it's not perfect,in fact most times..but I don't care,I'm getting huge joy just creating Octave/Reverse/Glitch/Pad Stereo Soundscapes...
@@patrickr6505 Exactly!!! When it's rewarding, fun and exciting to create than it's purpose enough. It impossible writing a masterpiece every time and everyone having fun with pedals knows that. Thanks for taking the time to watch! 🙌
@@Andreas_tropicalwinter But my dears, you are actually writing masterpieces each times, think about it, the chance of being a Life form able to create, High Five Guys 🙌
@@Andreas_tropicalwinterLove this video. Have you ever read “The Journey is the Destination” by Dan Eldon? Lotta words incoming… “By the time he was twenty-two, Dan Eldon had led a relief mission across Africa; worked as a graphic designer in New York; studied (intermittently) at four colleges; travelled through Europe, Africa, Japan, and the United States; founded a charity for Mozambiquan refugees; directed a film; written a book; started up his own photography business; and become a photojournalist for Reuters news agency, covering the famine and civil war in Somalia. There, in 1993, he was killed in an eruption of mob violence while on assignment. In a world of rules and regularity, Eldon was a renegade, a risk-taker, and an adventurer. His is no ordinary journal; it is an astonishing collage of photos, drawings, words, maps, and clippings that reveals his strange and vivid life. The Journey is the Destination is at once the vision of an artist in his prime and the unrestrained outpourings of a young man just beginning to live.”
@@DanielDavis730 The amp is just set to be a clean platform for pedals. I engage an Overdrive pedal for low gain, and a Distortion pedal for higher gain. This way I can decide which kind of Overdrive/Distortion I want and not be limited by the amps sound itself.
It actually comes with a graphite nut! That is BETTER than the bone nut. Also: The tuners were a sidegrade compared to what was on there. The Squier tuners do NOT need to be sidegraded unless you NEED locking tuners. Also, that bridge is exactly the same as the one you replaced -- another sidegrade. Also, putting bottom-of-the-barrel Harley Benton parts on a Squier is a hate crime. You had a GREAT guitar that just needed fretwork. What you spent on it was absolutely unnecessary.
@@Great-Documentaries Injust did the hardware changes because I wanted aged ones, otherwise I wouldn't have cared. The nut was replaced because the tuners where stucky as hell...but nothing changed and new ones are that sticky too. The new nut isn't a bone nut, but a Graphtech one. Bridge and tuners are made by Gotoh, which I didn't knew is the same level as HarleyBenton... Beside the leveling of rhe frets, nothing was made to made it a better playing guitar, just a better locking one...to my taste. Thanks for watching!
