Loving the content man, would you be willing to make a video explaining what you use each pedal for? Or a bit of your creative process.

[@TrimPathMusic]

Glad you're digging it! That's definitely in the works, stay tuned.

This one has a lovely Hiroshi Yoshimura vibe to it. Great stuff.

Ace! Thanks. Lee

[@ImprovizBackingTrack]

You are genius!

[@Eimrine]

Thank you for another megahit! Is RC-5 any better than RC-1 from previous mix or you could do this with RC-1 with no problems?

[@TrimPathMusic]

Thank you, and great question! The RC-1 is totally capable of doing this. I recently got the RC-5 to experiment with MIDI synching synthesizers and drum machines (the RC-1 can't do that). Stay tuned!

awesome! what is the woodgrain pedal doing in your set up?

[@TrimPathMusic]

Thanks! I mostly use it for volume swells. However, it also has a -10db pad which is helpful, these keyboards have surprisingly loud outputs. Also, it’s an EQ, so I usually roll off some of the treble and hum that comes from the board.

Calling this ambient is a disservice. You have great melodic sensibility. Most ambient music is just randomly generated noise.
