Please subscribe to the That Pedal Show dedicated channel.
Lovers of pure, unadulterated guitar tones look away now, because in this episode, Daniel and Mick offer a primer on the world of guitar sounds that, er, aren't guitar sounds.
Obviously it's a massive topic and before anyone asks, this is NOT about guitar synths. We might do that in the future. Say, 2025 or thereabouts.
Instead, we're talking about more simple pedals, to whit this is a light overview of…
• Ring modulation with the 2015 reissue Dod Gonkulator
• Subsynth with the Digitech Synth Wah
• Polyphonic octave generation with the Electro-Harmonix POG2 and...
• …as an extension of that, the Electro-Harmonix B9 and C9 Organ Machines
Somewhere among all the bonkers conkers there might be a sound or two you could use. Er, maybe?
Dan is playing his Nik Huber Krautster II, Mick is playing a Collings SoCo, although frankly the guitars might just be slightly overkill for these sounds. You think?
Amps are a Marshall JTM45 (reboxed) into a Marshall 1961cx 2x12 with Celestion G12H Anniversary speakers, and a Two-Rock Studio Pro 35 into a custom Zilla 1x12 with Celestion G12H Creamback speaker.
As always, effects and amp switching and routing is handled effortlessly by TheGigRig G2.
Enjoy this if you dare...

@daleharrisguitar 7 лет назад

John McLaughlin and Jeff Beck both used ring modulators. McLaughlin had some prototypes (later employing a Sony m7 for the job). Jan Hammer gave his Maestro Ring mod to Jeff Beck (he still uses it). Personally, I really like the Way Huge Ring Worm. The alesis quardraverb used to do a nice job (although noisy).

@rickc2102 7 лет назад

I really enjoy my ehx ring thing for its ring mod (not to mention chorus, trem, and vibrato, too). You can retune the ring frequency to any note you're playing on the fly, just hold down the left footswitch for one second.

@MrChrisPalmer 8 лет назад

@doctiberius2717 8 лет назад

I got the C9 pedal nearly a week ago and it's great fun. I find it really useful with my looper and layer single notes to create a rhythm. As you said in the video at loud volumes it can be problematic as with the click effect on some organ sounds makes horrible popping noises and must be turned off/down. Also I found C9 works best with low output single coil pickups as it does seem to be sensitive to how I attack the strings. So be very careful with not to use active pickups through these pedals. Now I'm experimenting with putting it through different effects like fuzz pedal for the 'Lord Purple' is awesome and adding more modulation and delay gets interesting. But best of all it is so easy to use.

@livingabovethe12th 6 лет назад

Thanks guys. When Dan mentioned that the POG2 could store presets I suddenly sat up and took notice... preset functionality makes the POG2 a more interesting prospect for a pedalboard.

@mantashaft 7 лет назад

Happy B9 owner and I will tell you exactly why I wanted one. I don't play keys and assume I will never learn at this point. Instead of getting a keyboard I can't play, why not get something that allows me to translate my guitar skills to keyboard sounds? Makes total sense to me.

@matthenriksen9582 8 лет назад

The only pedal missing from this line up is the electro harmonix key9 which is similar to the B9 and the C9 but diffrent in its own respective right. Other then that, fun pedals all around.

@bbbro34 3 года назад

The B9 and C9 are served really well with a compressor in the chain. They're dynamic pedals so they're touch sensitive and yeah, those swells and frequencies can get out of hand without something to tame them. They're great for recording, I have the C9, and it's a lot cheaper and easier than getting a real organ. I don't think I'd ever use it live, but for buskers on the street it's a good addition.

@canconeteirodopunk Год назад

The B9 or C9 with a wet dry wet rig could give the effect of a seperate guitar and organ. You could even throw in a leslie sim pedal too, a univibe might even work.

A little Bouree in Em if you please.. haha this may be the funnest episode yet. All great pedals. Gonk! Love it. The Synth Wah I use in a stereo rig. (When i use it.) Run the dry thru to a normal pedalboard to one amp and the SynthWah thru a separate board to another amp and kick it in when you want to get those Rush type parts. So much fun here, I could go on and on. Thanks as always. Oh and I dont mean to be a twatty bastard but DOD is pronounced as individual letters, not as a word. D.O.D. Everyone in England pronounces it that, Ive noticed.

@guitarguru4492 5 лет назад

Does a 12 string simulator need to go first in the signal chain?

Oh yeah, the DOD gonkulator! I´ve got the original version from the 90´s. Incubus used it on some tracks. For a nice 70´s example of ring modulator on guitar, check out Mahavishnu Orchestra´s album "visions of the emerald beyond". John mcLaughlin uses it on the track "on the way home to earth".

@acalmerkarma 7 лет назад

Replying way too late, but I run mine through a BOSS LS-2 to both control the wacky volume and preserve a dry signal. Works wonders. Also it technically let's you do 1 dry and two wet signals, so I run the other wet through a pitchfork. (I play bass)

@jamesanthonymorris2370 8 лет назад

Big question here if you can take the time to read it and answer it it would mean a lot I'm really quite stuck. I've got an ac15 c1 with a greenback celestion speaker in it that's great, had it for a year now but now I've started to spend more money building my pedal board up as I've always been a plug straight in kind of guy but that's changed as of late, anyway I've got a JHS alpine which is amazing, but when it's off and I'm playing with even a mild amount of gain I can hear the reverb from the alpine flutter ever so slightly it basically sounds like a spring reverb tank being kicked making a weird splashy noise, I know it's not the reverb on the amp because it sounds completely different to the alpine and I always have the amp reverb cut off completely, the problem only gets worse when I kick on my ds1 or my tubescreamer and if I use my big muff it's really audible and highly annoying asThere is no effects loop on the ac15 is there anything I can do! Thanks x

@mattsnyder4754 8 лет назад

First thing I would do is send the pedal back to JHS. If it's off and still making noise, something's probably wrong with it. They've got lifetime warranties on all their stuff, so it should be a free fix. Second option is to get some form of loop switcher like the one they're using here. Doesn't have to be as fancy by any means, just something to take the pedal out of the chain when it's not in use.

@jamesanthonymorris2370 8 лет назад

+Matt Snyder thanks man, really appreciate your help, I think I'm gonna go and ahead and email JHS and then send it back. Thanks again

@RuinBird 8 лет назад

Ring modulation is basically tremolo, amplitude modulation, at very fast speeds. This generates an output that has the sum and difference frequencies of the carrier and modulator. The carrier is what you play, the modulator, obviously, is the signal modulating it. If the modulator is slow enough you just get tremolo. The Electro Harmonix Ring thing is one of the best on the market. And all I ever play on the synth wah is Roobarb and Custard :)

@ketongu 8 лет назад

@doctiberius2717 7 лет назад

I got the C9 just a year ago and it was great fun. at first then the novelty wears off. I used about a handful of times. Warning* Mick you're right about being careful with sudden volume levels shootingthrough the roof, so it gets hard to distinguish between keyboard clicking and speaker ripping. hahaha! (sorry). I got me an external cabinet with a 300watt 10" Dominator bass speaker in it for the C9 as not to damage to vintage speaker. lastly you do have to play differently and best to play double stop cords or individual notes and never do bends because it just sounds terrible.
