  • Wasn't sure how to title this video.
    After learning how to play this song ( You Need Me, I Don't Need You ) with my loop pedal I was interested to see how Ed uses his custom Loop Pedal
    ( Chewie II ) to play it, as it's a one-of-a-kind loop station I thought some people might be interested to have a view of exactly what he does on it.
    Anyone who is interested in this may also be interested in this video, which is a short demo of the pedal, with the technician that's responsible for it: • Ed Sheeran "Divide" To...

      I wish I could remember or find it on here again. This sort of documentary/biography was long, I think an hour and a half & several years old. At any rate, Ed was in the yearly concert in Glastonbury and started playing Shape of You. A girl was talking at this point about the loop pedal Ed uses. She goes into detail about the way it works and how he uses it. The actual concert audience, watching and waiting sort of began to think Ed was lip syncing, mind you he hadn’t started singing yet, he was putting the song together, so to speak. He did 3 or 4 things with the pedal and then he went to the keyboard and played that iconic beginning to Shape of You. The crowd went nuts! He actually produced the song, live, in concert and included the audience in the recording. So much talent in this guys pinky finger. There is the live video of the song on here but if you could find this long version I’m talking about it’s so much better.

    WOW! Thank you for the loop pedal breakdown. I couldn’t take my eyes off it! 👍. And that was a lesson in loop pedal mastery. Ed is so smooth with his loop pedal, he makes it look so easy, and we all know it isn’t. Such an incredibly talented musician! I can watch him work that Chewie loop pedal for days and not be bored. The fact he does EVERY show from scratch and loops each song live is absolutely amazing.

      Nikhil Thashu as someone who’s not a fan of Ed, though continuously impressed by his looping skills, and the interesting fact that he’s pretty much the only successful artist using the live looping format.
      I like a lot of hard rock QOTSA, RB, DFA
      Some math rock like Polyphia and Ichikoro
      A couple of dream pop bands
      The Weeknd and Post Malone would be the pop artists I probably enjoy the most.
      I just generally find Ed’s music to be uninteresting and unrelatable to myself, it’s not bad, it’s just not for me

      @brodyoliverbassett7579  3 роки тому +5

      I don't believe so, he definitely doesn't record anything. He might have wanted to change to RC20 as that is the next channel he'd eventually record into,. But Ed is very efficient with his pedal, so I expect he either mistakenly thought that was the next channel he'd use or accidentally pressed it instead of the mode button

    Okay. So when record button is onn and there is ref light on certain button, the audio is recording in that channel and it will loop. When the red light is shifted to other button, the previous track will keep on playing and the new channel will record something too. Then what is the meaning of green light here?

    • @brodyoliverbassett7579
      @brodyoliverbassett7579  3 роки тому

      Ed’s loop pedal has two modes “record mode” in which pressing any of the four pedal will select that track to record into, and the active track is indicated with the red LED.
      It also has “playback mode” in which by default every channel has a green LED, and each channel can be muted individually, the green LED is turned off when the channel is muted.
      At 5:10 you can see him unmuting two channels, and if you listen you’ll be able to notice that change too

      I’ve been using the RC-30 since December, with an FS5U to change tracks, and really pushing it to its limits, (constantly using both tracks and the Undo-Redo function to get another track) but I’m tempted to build a custom midi controller and start using Mobius, especially after seeing what Ed can do with his

      Hey, he names the third one after the RC20 because that loop station had no distinction between the microphone input and the guitar input (they would both be recorded together no matter what) but the other channels isolate either guitar or microphone, hence the name RC-20, it functions like the pedal does

He's really ripping into these small-body guitars and overdriving them, which results in a boxy, toyish and dead tone. I'm surprised nobody has turned him on to using a Maton. They have an outstanding live sound with a piezo amp and an internal mic. They do great with the percussive stuff too.
