Great rundown, thanks! I've had some success with reducing noise from a shared PSU by adding clip on ferrite beads to my power leads as close to the gadget being powered as possible. I've not tried it on USB cables though.
Very nice Eric, I am always looking to geek out on other musicians setups. I was wondering about digistix Does it have all the acoustic drum samples or do I have to make in app purchases for the sounds? I need a drum app. Thank you. Tim
Definitely appreciating that case with your hub and interface all prewired together. I was thinking in terms of a small rack bag, but that's way simpler and easier to sort out. Is there a powerbank in there? The battery charger is a stroke of genius, if you ask me!
Sometimes I have a powerbank in there. Actually I made a upgrade to a new wireless mic system that already is battery powered so I can make a short gig entirely on battery power 👌(will make a new setup video soon)
För en som gillar originalet gjort av Danielsson & Pekkanini var detta en olidlig slakt av låten. Ska försöka stå ut till slutet, men det lär behövas några månaders terapi efter det 🙄
Hi Eric and kindest regards from Cambodia. Boy, what a set up! I feel like I need to be a Rocket Scientist to figure this kind of system out but I want to move in this direction from an on the floor Lekato looper to Loopy Pro. My first challenge is trying to figure out the best audio interface to use. I want to be able to integrate keyboard with guitar and vocals. Will a 2 X 2 audio interface be sufficient for those three instruments or should I think about a 4 X 4. Thanks in advance and nice video. I did that song last night at a gig and although it was ok with my present system, Loopy Pro once mastered could of done wonders on this song.
@@thomrossetti9554 rme baby baby face pro is very good and known for transparent preamps and it’s low latency . There are several good choices it kind of depends on your budget. A lot of my loopy friends use zoom stuff or behringer flow👍
Hmm the secret is that I feed the midi from my keyboard. I haven't got a preset to replicate the harmony of the voicelive 3 by using midi guitar yet but it should be fairly easy.
I really like the concept of the acoustasonic, but not enough to pay 1000€+ for it. This seems like a really good alternative and you really showed the potential of the instrument. Many people complain about this type of hibrid guitars because they don't get the point behind them. You do because you're the target audience of this type of instrument. And it shows. Great review.
Yeah, that would definitely make an interesting video. What worries me the most about does Aliexpress knock-offs is that this Acoustasonic style guitars normally use fix bridges and a fixed saddle. If the guitar comes with intonation issues (which many Aliexpress, Temu, Wish, guitars do) it's not an easy fix. I think Harley Bentons are a wiser choice, they are affordable but they are not cheap. They are decent quality instruments. But it would still be interesting to see how good (or how bad) one of those knock-offs is.
Hi! It's a percussion table that I modified with an angle grinder to fit the keyboard. It sits safely with velcro. www.thomann.de/se/km_13500_percussion_table.htm
You have some people that are watching your videos that are visually impaired so we don’t know where your boxes start end, and which one is the first box where so you need to let us know thank you
So I’ll try to help as I’m watching, the first pattern he is using must start no lower than the 12th fret, as he mentions playing the same pattern an octave lower, which would be the same pattern in the open position, so think of it like nut at the headstock of the guitar would be like your finger fretting that note which is giving you the open string, so follow the same pattern. Low E open to fret 3 (G), A open to fret 2 (B), D open to fret 2 (E), G open to fret 2 (A), B open to fret 3 (C#), and high E open to fret 3 (G)… at the 12th fret we complete our chromatic scale bringing us up one octave higher, and all the notes played are the same again as how we played it from open… golly that was a lot to describe for just the octave, let me see what else I can try to make clear….
Why people get stuck on the pentatonic scale and their shapes is just due to a lack of understanding how to actually use them, to move between them without sounding so… scaly… as pattern one ends pattern 2 begins, so you can ascend upward to the next pattern, or descend to the previous one. How to use them better? Well, try to look at the patterns and see what chords you can play within the scale, pattern 1 is pretty much giving you a minor chord if your root is anywhere on the 6th string, so play the chord, and play a couple notes around it and you’ll see what I mean, as you move between chords in any progression you choose, you’ll naturally see how the notes tend to follow most pentatonic patterns. It’s not to say that there aren’t other notes accessible to you either not in the shape, there are. More often than not, you won’t find anyone playing only pentatonic notes and absolutely nothing else, the reason why pentatonics are so popular and widely used is because the box shapes don’t require you to move outside of those positions to complete the scale which isn’t always the case in classical modes, therefore it’s easier to transition from chords to Melodie’s back to chords and move in every direction without as much awkward repositioning
@Ericessmusic why thank you! That means alot coming from a player beyond my capabilities! When I try to explain these things, I like to use all along the watchtower as my main example, as it was one of the first songs I learned the rhythm to, and noticed how the chords tied into the leads, and the endless ways of playing it long before I fundamently understood what was happening. The CAGED system would be a good enhancement to this particular lesson, however it's not without its own challenges and flaws that can lead a many guitarists into those plateau pitfalls, it's a good way to visualize the neck and shapes of where you can go and break from those boxes, but ultimatly the biggest takeaway from all of it to better soloing is targeting the tonic, far too often its easy to get lost in passing tones or feel stuck or have ideas that don't always connect well, but it's all in due time! Great video man! The guitar is life long journey of endless secrets to unlock!
Great lesson thank you. Can you say which app you think is best for drums? I am interested in Loopy pro but not sure what to invest in for drums? Thank you.
