For a beginner who wants to play drop tuning songs without owning multiple guitars, would the original Digitech Drop pedal be better or would the big one be better in the long run?
I think the Whammy DT is best utilised with a midi pedal so you can access all the features. But just for drop tuning I’d go with the Drop. But the whammy is fun and creative
@@wrashchild I do like the idea of doing whammy stuff, I’ve just seen how Tom Morello used one…with that in mind, do I go for the basic drop and adding the whammy later or the full package now?
my Fav tutorial for the GT1000 core REAL LIFE ussage. Quick question: Have you used OD / DST / FZZ external pedals with the Core? Any recommended Order in the board?
I did try a few overdrives in the loop and I couldn’t really tell the difference between the onboard ones. I think you should just try it and see if you feel it’s right
1:10 Using an ES5 or an 0:27 ES8 there are multiple banks each with a simple set of switches and you can configure lots of different patches very easily and not have to worry about all the settings and all the gadgets.Using the MIDI interface you can control all the digital devices and at the same time using the loops you can hook in analog pedals if you really want to use them. The Boss ES controllers are a bit expensive but very capable. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tKDRhMdjZQ8.htmlsi=1FUuBYpm8I6s1wVi
I grew up with detuned guitars. I want the strings loose. I want the slack, and frett slap. A 52 is fine for me. You couldn't pay me to play that gimmick guitar.
Thank you for your great comparism! There is actually one difference more for the neck. The standard has a thin lacquered neck while the RS is „unfinished“ means oiled and waxed. For that reason the RS feels a bit smoother, more natural. I have also both (the RS as a Cutlass and the Stingray exactly in the same red) and I like also both necks from the feel. But besides that, the neck shape is quite different between the Cutlass and the Stingray.
Is it possible to auto shift a whammy using JUST a Boss ES-5, like Muse's Map of The Problematique, or not? Would love a video on how to do auto pitch shifting with a digitech whammy and an ES5, with or without a computer... Thanks for the great content!
@@wrashchild I did thanks! After owning an ES-5 for 5 years, never thought about joining the FB group, duh ha. Turns out not possible really, think I'm gonna shell out for the Riff Step Whammy Enhancer and have some fun...
I have a few questions, can it take a guitar that is tuned to e standard and take it down to drop b or a, I really want a hard tail guitar but i want the whammy bar for dive bombs and tricks, does it give a whammy drop for those tricks?
So this thing can tune up, too? 😅 Sure, capos are a thing, but a) they require retuning and b) they shorten your scale length. Which is probably why I’ve never seen a metal band use a capo on any of their riffs - even though I do know a hard-rock song that was recorded in F minor, clearly using the open E string (Ten’s “The Name of the Rose”). So I assume they actually tuned up for that one? Because it was recorded back in the 90s, when this pedal certainly didn’t exist yet.
My ranking: 9. Year of the Black Rainbow 8. The Colour Before the Sun 7. Vaxis II 6. Vaxis I 5. Second Stage Turbine Blade 4. Good Apollo 1 3. No World for Tomorrow 2. In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth 3 1. The Afterman (it's a double album)
For amp with different channels a very nice addition to es-5 is a voodoo lab control switcher, that can transform any amp and add midi control rather via a custom made cable (midi DIN5 to Marshall DIN 6, to Mesa DIN7) or via four 1/4 standard mono jack outputs. Very nice unit check it out ;)
Thank you, I want to buy the one kit wonder drum kit but wasn't I sure if i had to purchase main software like ezdrummer 3. I'm glad I don't need to spent the extra money now.
@@wrashchildsounds really excellent, I'm not really a metal player, who would you recommend listening wise as great modern metal riff writers post 2000s to learn that kind of style of playing. I learn best from listening. You make that pedal sound great btw.
@@wrashchild thanks for that info, I'm always interested in listening and learning from unfamiliar guitar styles when I hear something I like. And your playing on the video was one of those moments. Thanks again.
I'm getting quite a lot of latency when I do this - any ideas what could be causing it? I'm running a Mac Studio M2 Max with 32GB of RAM and I have the I/O buffer set to 64
