Bill, you are simply amazing and a pioneer. I am addicted to your channel! I know you have been at this a long time, but if you can do more step-by-step tutorials, it will really help us newbies. For example, you probably don't think twice about that simple drum track, but many of us would probably like for you to show us how to set that up and loop it.

@johnsmith-lb4mo Год назад

Yeah...please do a drum track tutorial Bill

@lokelosk 2 года назад

If you have an IR loader or convolver reverb, loading a sample of white noise works wonders too. Also, shoutout to TAL Reverb 4, another great free reverb plugin that's great for ambient.

@TheOligoclonalBand 2 года назад

Thanks for this video. While not free per sé I always like to see what comes with my hardware. I got the Eventide H9 plug-ins for free with my H9, got a Korg M1 plug-in with a MIDI keyboard and a nice mellotron with my audio interface.

@guitarsean 3 года назад

I like the Blue Cat plug ins. Extra tip for the Amp, click the wave form-looking icon in the lower right corner of the UI to load your own impulse response. Or drag and drop the IR onto the plugin. It is supposed to load any IR, though I have only used speaker IRs, haven't tried reverb or any others. This feature isn't really clear from the interface, and who RTFMs anymore, right?

@chordsoforion 3 года назад

Yes -great tip. Thanks!!

Unrelated to the video, but I love that you're an Affinity and Luminar guy!

@chordsoforion 3 года назад

Yes - I got totally off the Adobe train last year, replacing Photoshop with Affinity. It's been great!

@grateful4068 3 года назад

@@chordsoforion I've been an Affinity user for almost two years now I guess. I use Affinity Photo and Luminar 4 for Photos, Affinity Designer and Publisher for design and documents, and Davinci Resolve studio for video. I don't miss Adobe in the least. Davinci Resolve is one of the best changes I've ever made in my workflow. $300 buys an awful lot of speed boost!

@steveball7086 3 года назад

Very nice little jam/soundscape, as usual. Amazingly great sound from these freebies. Reminds me somewhat of the Hologram Microcosm in terms of simultaneous multi-fx. I was wondering what your chord progression was for the piece at the end (with the drums); I can’t make it out on the baritone, but it worked particularly well with these fx. Also what was the order of the fx (as presented perhaps)?

@chordsoforion 3 года назад

Thanks Steve! The transposed chord progression on a standard guitar would be Em / Dadd9 / Cadd9. The order of effects is indeed in the order presented.

@lemi_b9348 2 года назад

@simpson6700 9 месяцев назад

yay actual free plugins, not plugins that you have to signup for and install a storefront/manager, or give them all your information for a 0.00€ "purchase", i like it.

@jeffallen3382 Год назад

Would love to see this topic on a yearly type basis if possible?

@philf4086 3 года назад

Great selection of freebies! To me your full implementation has too much delay and reverb - but I realize that this is totally personal choice. The palette is great overall, and the Valhalla plug-ins sound especially sweet.

@chordsoforion 3 года назад

That's the new nickname for this channel: "Too much delay and reverb". 😜

@philf4086 3 года назад

@@chordsoforion Hah, funny! I've watched enough of the videos to realize that the foundation of ambient guitar is delay, reverb, and a looper/loopers - so I really don't know where my comment came from. Maybe it was something particular to the specific patches in each effect.

Hi Bill - Another awesome and really useful video ! ! ! Thanks for sharing some of your " trade secrets " ! One question please Bill ...........Is there any set order of inserting these into the channel for recording in the same way as you recommended your pedal order ? Thanks again - Best Regards . . . Eddie.

@chordsoforion Год назад

Hey Eddie - In general, I would use the effects in an order similar to pedals. For example, I would place delay plugins after amp modeling, and reverbs would generally be last. But as always, experimenting with order is a good thing. You may find a unique sound you really like.

@EddieSlowhands Год назад

Hey, Bill! Is the Sweetwater Morley Volume pedal link supposed to point to the Wah-Volume model (Morley 20/20 Power Wah Volume Pedal)? Can you completely disable the wah?

yes - you can use it as either a volume or wah pedal. There's also the a standard version without the wah. Both are great!

@rjschrei 3 года назад

How about the same video for iOS? I have a modest collection of great effect pedals, like the Zoia and CBA pedals, but I find myself using Mixbox on iOS devices since I am recording into them anyway. Recording into Borderlands granular with Eventide apps after is a pretty good sound. Maybe not audiophile quality, but more than adequate.
