Really appreciate your videos and the resources you provide they help me immensely -- I recently fell into the leadership position of our churches youth band and needed something to guide me improving and growing the band. THIS IS IT!! I tried the link you sent, it doesn't seem to be going to the dropbox link, from my email.
Another convenient way of using these pads, because almost all modern keys have pads similar to this. Just press the sustainer pedal and hold it down, then with some basic pad sounds, just press the root and fifth of certain keys or chords several octaves.
You already touched this at @ 6:25, but I think you need to cover more on how to not use (certain) ambient pads. We started playing using backing pad track the whole song and I felt like at times there was too much tension between the pad and what the band played.
You need to know what the chord is going to create in song and IF that is OK enough. Like a 3 chord might have been the issue like in G You played a Bmin while the pad played the tonic G that creates a harmony that MIGHT not go well with the melodies.
I think these are more like ambient pads (audio files) than playable pads. You may be able to trigger them with a midi keyboard, but you wouldn't be able to change the chords of them.
no way to contact you guys, bought valley bundle, only link given to me was the jpg of the picture. no files downloadable, order #00005, love the patch, its says link will expire in 24 hrs. contact me please
Jake: Thank you for the Pads! I have several questions if I may ask: 1) Who sets the volume on the iPhone/iPad if the Sound Guy doesn't know how, 2) Who turns on (and off) the Pads during the songs and during transition to each song?
You could just guess where the volume needs to be. I would have the device on stage somewhere and yourself or maybe a drummer could cue up the next pads
Thanks guys, been looking for somethng smilar. Those free pad and paid downloads, can you use it and modify them for own youtube/filmmaking sound designs without infringing any copyright laws? Any conditions to know about? Been thinking to design them myself from scratch and will follow your other videos.
Is the function of PADs similar to The OHM sound? Very interesting, how far this PADs concept have relations with those miracles frequencies 528 etc for meditation?
for a person who plays for a great God, this is some cheap attempt of one who really lacks the skill to play decently. rather hone your skill to excellence for God. Not just some cheap pads in the background. nowadays, even musicians in churches take full advantage of techs that real skills are becoming extinct. Sooner, we will be just like the people in the movie "Wall E". Can even hardly walk... peace,... just one constructive criticism...
