In this episode I show you my favorite presets on the M5 and how and why I program it. You can listen to my music here: / buddapowerblues / donacarioca / triopagu www.doctorguitar.net buddaguedes buddaguedes
I've had my M5 for about a year. I am crazy about it!! I especially love the Filters, but it's all so brilliant. I love to use alongside the Digitech RP360XP - the two of them work together so well!! This is my favorite video dealing with the M5 - you go through everything thoroughly. Your playing really shines through.
Just bought a modded one of these with a switch to access the presets without pressing both buttons. Really fun and useful pedal. Perfect secret weapon. Nice video!
I got one of these cheap on eBay around 2 years ago and I've never used it. Just sits there in the box, gathering dust. Need time to have a go with it. I guess I just like simple pedals, no displays or menus or "digibollocks" as Mick from That Pedal Show calls it. I know that it can do some good sounds, just never tried 'em. Thanks for doing this, now I know what I'm in for if I do get into this thing. Ayy that's a lot of fiddling around :X
Love the m5, still worth buying. Like you I love the rotary, octo, and particle. Worth the price of the pedal right there. Synth string is good too if you make the attack sharp and use it like a normal synth instead of a swell..
Again awesome video Budda ! Taking the time to explain this pedal and then demonstrate how killer it sounds... It's just gold. I wish I never sold it now... haha !
Ok so I bought this unit a while back and I must say, for the money, for me it's great. I run it through my Carvin x100b 100 watt head. It sounds great. Either through the effects loop or straight into the front end, it works good. I really like some of the compressors. If you could only stack the effects, that would be awesome. Great video brother as always.
Hey Buda, have you seen the mod with an extra button to go direct to presets? I am not handy enough to do it myself but looks quite useful. Thanks for the videos!
Hi Budda, great gig in Famalicão and good luck for the Israel gigs !!! Are you planning an in-depth analysis of the Line6 Helix ? Thank you for another great video, and I hope I can make it to the Ponte de Lima gig Nov 9th !!!!
Just come across you vid. I have an HX FX and Wah as I fly rig. If I wanted to use the M5 for the delays mid and reverb. Would I need to put it after the HX FX in the chain on my board or before it? Or would It not matter in this instance? Thank you 👍🏻 🎸🎸❤️
I've bought this pedal a few years back thanks to your video here but didnt like it. So I returned it. However I did not make my own presets and that could be the reason why I didnt like it. Now year later I still have no modulation pedals on my board as I just cant decide to by individual pedals I might not use that often :D So best deal is to get exactly THIS M5 pedal :D I ought to buy it and then spend time to make my own presets! Thank for a great video!
Just ordered it again ... should be in my hands in a few days! Watching how you do the presets and will start there. I hope this time I will like better into my wet-dry amps setup!
@@BuddaGuedes Got it and played for a while before replying to you here! :D I really like the way it sounds through my two new Fender Vintera guitars Tele and Strat , and into a wet-dry VOX AC15 (Greenback) and Egnater Tweaker (Jensen Blackbird alnico 100watt). I bought it for modulation and for that it really shines. All else is just and extra but I think the MODULATION on this M5 sound really good! Tremolo, Flanger, Phaser, Rotary all very good. Sounds great with my Euphoria and Pantheon drives and with TC Flashback delay (I prefer Flashback for delays). It does color the tone a bit but a tiny turn on tone knob can fix this. Very happy! Thank you!
Just got one of these used. Great sounds but really frustrated that settings will not save as I move from effect to effect. I go into set up mode and have it set to autosave but just will not work. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I kinda want one of these but I've heard the expression pedals are pretty fragile and expensive. Do you know if they have ever improved them? Also not compatible with other expression pedals not made by Line 6 unfortunately.
Hey Budda! Thx for the vid! Do you know if you can have slow/fast Leslie in the same preset? Do you need an external expression, or can you assign the tap tempo to do that? Cheers/Perry
How can I activate the tap function? Because no matter how much I try to press it, the tap does not change on the screen, only if I move it with the knob. I hope you can help me.
You just turn the time knob to the right until it changes from milliseconds to musical notes. You pick whatever musical note you want (1/4 note 1/8 note etc) and tap is working
also i was so bent over getting this but the thing is its so old i mean its from 2010 and being digital i know that in 2020 that the tech has gotten soo much better and that i guess im just waiting for an updated version
Oh wow, that sounds great as always. If it is approved by doctor guitar, well who am I not to listen! Do you have any tips for emulating bowed instruments and a hammond organ? I have an external overdrive, reverb, tremolo, delay, and comp.best, anne
For Bowed instruments the best way would be an ebow, but as an effect the autovolume effect on the M5 will do a good job. For the organ the rotary speaker is a great tool.
Will the Budda experience come to the Netherlands after Covid? Want to hear the king of tone live at some point. But perhaps I should go to portugal instead.
HEllo! Budda ... i think i've seen awhile ago one video you made about the m9 ... so i wonder ... the M9 (in a way) has 3 M5 in it ... can we say that ?! Thanks for another great video ... your making me being a aware that i've wished things i didnt even knew i was wishing to have ... ahahah (the 1st time you did it was with the broadcast ... ;) ) thanks! Rock on ...
hey Dr Guitar, have you had any issues with your unit ? I have one and it often blinks when I power it up - seems to be a known issue because of the ribbon cable connector.
hi..may i ask..i got problem with m5 preset ..when i want to set a preset especially on modulation,reverb,delay and filters..the volume will drop..anybody got same problem with me?
thanks man..its really ruin my day..but if i choose to preset a distortion mode..nothing change in volume level..may i know..u set for dsp bypass or true bypass sir?
great video n' great pedal. but got a doubt ...are there Subdivisions no the delay section ?? I mean Delay Dotted Eighth , Quarter Note , triplet etc.. I'll appreciate someone reply me. t-you =)
does the effect changes by just scrolling through the list of the patches? or u still have to press the footswitches at the same time in order to engage the effect? thanks for the response :)) planning to have one
Claro. Mas daí menos do que o resto do mundo, certo?! O inglês é a língua universal e av ideia deste canal é partilhar com o máximo de número de pessoas! Esse é-o propósito de qualquer linguagem. Escolhi o inglês precisamente para ser mais abrangente. Sei que há quem não fale inglês mas, Infelizmente não há nenhuma língua sem desvantagens..
Compreendo mas o que é nosso sabe sempre melhor, mas aproveito para dizer também que tens bons vídeos e de fácil interpretação mesmo para quem percebe minimamente de inglês. Pelo menos com o line6 m5 vi este vídeo uma primeira vez para ter noção das vantagens do pedal antes de comprar e a segunda foi para usar na prática e sim ajudou me bastante por isso 5*
I have a big amp which I use a 1 level of volume when plug the M5 had to go to 5 level of volume in the amp to nearly mach the same volume as I had whitout the m5 ...in true bypass the sound get normal volumen -0 db when the pedal is off ... whit the pedal on volume sound as low as it does in dsp mode ....I just send it back.
