Also you can see the laptop next to Pau. That's got Ableton I believe running, and they are using that to trigger the extra sounds, and also running the click track. But all the instruments are played by the band themselves.
Why the guitar sound is so "big"; In Dani's equipment rundown vid (on their channel) she explained that one of the things her pedal board allows is separate channels for the left and right speakers. This allows her to apply a delay on one channel of a couple milliseconds to give a fuller sound. Her setup does let her do far more than that but it's best just to watch it and see.
They just give me goosebumps every single time. They basically evolve the genre to an incredible point, it is obvious that they will be one of the biggest bands in the world soon. So much energy, so much talent, great compositions, just outrageous. Their parents must be soooo proud, can you imagine ?
Dany has an effect programmed on here peddle board that allows for an extra guitar. It's a small delay she has set up to give the illusion of another guitar while she is playing. In 2020 she did a rundown of her peddle board and the effects she can do with it.
Danny did a video explaining her effects peddles at the base of her mike stand. one she uses alot repeats what she's playing with a .2 sec delay and comes from the other side of the stage, making it sound like 2 separate guitars
Dany has a Kemper pedal board that can duplicate/triplicate her guitar signal in different octaves each with different effects/delays. She can simulate dual leads. Additionally, Pau has a laptop to her left that they use to add backing tracks/sounds. These are usually recorded of them in advance (except sounds like sirens and other non-instruments). Finally, they have a click track (also from the laptop) that keeps them synchronized.
I like your analysis of Dany’s guitar work. Dany is super underrated when it comes to her guitar playing. She does a lot of cool stuff with her pedalboard and switching between effects. Super underrated
Dany explained what she does for her live guitar sound. She uses a Kemper Profiler pedal board and she splits the mono line out into 2 left & right channels with a slight delay into one of the channels, so that is why the guitar's soundstage sounds much bigger than normal. It is to be noted that they do use backing tracks to add some rhythm guitar parts when necessary, but they are all played by Dany. Also an interesting anecdote regarding their live performances, for the official music video of Money that was released by MTV, they used video recorded for the big stage screens, but the audio was replaced by the studio version and apparently the girls were so on point, that they were able to just drop the studio audio and only needed to do very minimal timing adjustments and the audio worked perfectly over the live performance.
In my limited understanding, Dany takes the raw sound from her guitar and splits it three ways, one way has a pedal effect for the main sound the other two are delayed and routed left and right with a slightly fuzzier sound so that it sounds like three guitars playing off one instrument. Im not a tech guy but thats what i have gleaned from prior conversations on this topic. ✌️💖🎼
Dany's main tone is mono from the miced Orange amp on stage to front of house and the kemper is run stereo DI to front of house with different octaves and effects on each channel to fill out the sound. The wife and I are have a lot of fun watching the two of you keep up the great work.
Dave, even though you have already heard this song, it is okay to smile and show a little bit of emotion. LOL As for backtracks, yes, they do use them, but sparingly. Enter Sandman has Alessia singing in it. That is why they always give her full credit when they announce the song. When they add more guitar, it is Dany playing. Some of the songs have keyboard piano and some organ as well. Not sure which sister does those tracks as all 3 are excellent pianists. Having said that, they have had full backtrack failures during a concert, and the audience was not aware of it. The extra sound they add is for the listening enjoyment of the audience, and not because they can't sound good without it. They sound great, just a little more of their own sound, made by them. It's the same with Nightwish, except NW uses the London Philharmonic and The London Adult and Child Choir in their backtracks at their concerts, and not recordings of the band playing all of the different instruments. You and Ash should do more first time reactions of TW together!!! "First Time"!!
Ash has the happiest eyes I've ever seen!!! She has such a good time watching The Warning. Every time I watch her react to a new The Warning video it makes my cheeks hurt too!
You two are wonderful! The ladies do use backtracks, usually a second guitar, sometimes a keyboard, and rarely a vocal. The thing is that if all that goes to hell, you still get a great-sounding song. As they have said, backtracks are ok as long as they do not become the song.
One thing you can rest assured about The Warning is their honesty. If you react to more songs from this concert at Teatro Metropolitan then you will come across minor glitches in some songs. Most bands would have taken audio tracks from concert to the studio and replaced those errors with recordings. But the sisters didn't. Knowing fully well that these songs published on UA-cam will remain forever open to scrutiny & criticism they just went ahead with uploading everything. As Dany said in "Mayday in the Making" documentary - this is me. this is who i am. do you like it?
I think this was the show where Pau was in tears at the end (and comforted by Ale) because the crowd showed so much love to them. We love them and they return that love, they are awesome ❤🤘
Dany raising her fist in triumph to the crowd, while Pau has her back turned to the crowd to hide her tears as she cries on Ale's shoulder. It's a great picture, the show meant a lot to the band, and its one of those things that really made me appreciate them on another level when I saw it.
Hi from Sweden. Did you know that it´s Pau (the drummer) who write most of the songs and lyric on piano and then brings it too the two sisters and complete the songs with them.
Others may have said this already but I believe Pau sings while running on a treadmill to help her with her singing and drumming. As for rock being dead, it has not been in the mainstream for a long while but there are plenty of good rock bands around, including The Warning of course. The Warning might be the band to bring rock back to mainstream success. Rival Sons is a really good band that has been around for a little while and The Answer is another that I follow. A lot of rock is disguised as blues rock these days too, but it's not recognized very much by the mainstream media.
TW does use backing tracks, very subtly and tastefully, but on this track Dany's effects loop is EPIC (octave, chorus, delay just a bit?) and you're hearing live performance. This remains my favorite song of theirs after three years.
Can confirm. Saw them on back to back nights and the only difference between what you're watching on the screen and in person is that they sound BETTER in person. No fanboying whatsoever. Not that I didn't believe they weren't better in person, but I didn't expect them to sound THAT much better. It's absurd how better they sound live.
Absolutely. What was kind of interesting is I saw them last year at a festival, so like (I think) 9 bands played throughout the day. Most bands - including TW - played through the venue sound system, using the permanently installed sound board. A couple bands had their own equipment hauled up the stairs to the "booth" (just a low pipe fence around the equipment right in the middle of the audience)... and hands down, _The Warning_ had the absolute *best* sound of the whole selection of bands. Whomever was working the board that day did absolute magic, for sure - and of course the ladies are experts at shoving the pixies down the wires. 😋
Ale's basslines for this song are amazing, especially when you consider she wrote them when she was 12 or 13. Pau doing Pau things, singing and playing drums at the same time. Dany seems to appreciate being able to walk away from the microphone to rock out whenever Pau is singing lead. Dany is a total guitar nerd and she uses several effects to create the wall-of-guitar sound. They have done videos explaining their individual rigs, though I think Dany has improved her set up a good bit since she did the last one. Dany and Pau coordinate on the guitar effects to run everything through the Ableton Live software that runs their backing track from their studio stems during their live shows. So, everything Dany does is something she created, whether it is a sampled or performed live. They did some editing of the audio and video for this concert recording between the two dates they performed at the same venue, but I'm pretty sure that anything they modified on the sound track was between the two master recordings that were captured from the sound mixer board and not anything done in studio after the fact. They may have adjusted the mic levels from the raw capture, but from what people who were there at the concerts have reported, this is what the concert sounded like for them.
I believe since Dany moved to using the Kemper pedal board there is no longer any "patch changes" being triggered form Ableton Live to Dany's pedal board. I could be wrong.
One time last year after finishing a show Pau logged on to Patreon or Instagram because she needed to unwind, they had to get to sleep because they were on the road early the next morning. So she says "what's everyone up to?" If you can name another rockstar that dials up their followers after a concert to chat, let me know. No wonder their fans are diehards. They make everyone feel like family.
gr8 reaction ... when you get around to queen of the murder scene ... do the lunario cdmx live vids and do them in order ... they tell an epic story with this album ... r0ck 0n ... \m/ p.s. - dust to dust is the first song and prologue to that epic story p.p.s. - dany uses a stereo effect with most of her guitars that makes it sound like a wall of sound... coming from both sides and the center ... slightly out of phase ... BIG sound
In addition to the fat guitar sound produced by splitting the guitar channel, Ale continuously adjusts her play to shift between root notes, chords and leads depending on what Dany is doing on guitar, which makes it easy for her to add some depth while Dany is doing a lead (with or without a prerecorded rhythym track). For some songs Ale also adds fuzz distortion which allows her to easily play a distorted rhythym guitar tone.
Pau is a pocket-sized nuclear reactor {I stole that from another commenter, but I totally agree} We saw them in May of this year and I can honestly say they are one of the best live bands I have ever seen. Their performance was absolutely stunning. Pau was recently voted the number 1 best up-and-coming drummer in Modern Drummer Magazine for 2023.
Excellent ear regarding the effects on Dany's guitar and the technical aspects of what is happening. I'm sure another TWA member will follow up with exactly what is happening but stereo effect, phase shift, etc., I think you're on the right track. Obviously the sound on this recording was straight to the board and mixed in post but there are fan recorded videos of this concert that you can find that show exactly how big they sound live and honestly its amazing. Great reaction. This entire Teatro Metropolitan concert was amazing and they have another sold out show in October that I'm guess will be just as well if not MORE so. Maybe some new music?
Playing live really is their superpower. I have seen them 5 times now and been blown away every time. I expect you two would really enjoy seeing them next time The Warning come through the UK. Great reaction. Glad to see you have the same reaction many of us do as well.
RE: The guitar tone.. I remember Dany talking about how the signal is split and one side has like a 10ms delay which really adds to the thickness of the 1 guitar. There are 1 or 2 of occasions where a guitar backing track plays, but it's not a duplication, it's playing the rhythm while Dany solos. She also uses a harmonizer that will play an octive higher or lower sometimes as well.
This song is the intro to their concept album _Queen of the Murder Scene,_ which tells of a girl going from love to obsession, stalking, murder, and then the fight with her evil side for her soul. You should do the whole album in order, with 'Crimson Queen' next. The Lunario and Foro Didi shows are excellent.
There are enough of the Warning Army that actually know everything about the set up that someone in Chat will know what they have done to the track here but there is definitely some effect on Dany's guitar. As far as fitness these girls when they were younger would be knackered after performances now because they have purposely worked on their fitness they could perform 2 hours go out and run 6 miles then run it down mid. Most bands go out drink, party and go crazy The Warning hit the gym and listen to other bands.
Yes, Dany does use octave effects, and splits the signal with a delay and a couple other adjustments gives an incredibly full sound. There are videos in which she's goes over her rig and explains things. Several, in fact, as she's changed her setup over the years. I don't remember full details, but I'm sure someone can fill in more specifics.
Unless the mic on Dany's guitar cab is being used for other purposes I am guessing all the sound engineers (FOH, monitor, recording) get the miked sound from her guitar cab as well as the L/R direct out from her Kemper pedal board so it gives them more options in tweaking her sound for their specific purpose. (P.S. I don't see pictures of it but based upon a former setup I am guessing the Ale has both the miked output from her bass cab as well as a direct output going to the consoles.) In the "Nerd" category, for this show were all three boards (FOH, monitor, recording) using the same stage rack for preamps/A-D conversion or was the analog signal split between the FOH+monitor boards and the recording board?
@@tomland9293 I always like reading the tech details even though I just have an inexpensive guitar and a little practice amp with some budget pedals. So I only really grasp half of it but I’m learning.
@@spaceknaveI don't play but I have a little experience with sound and lighting in high school and sound for church services. I have always been curious of why things (and bands) work the way they do so I keep following gear and technology changes. It took me a bit to understand how digital sound mixing is different from analog sound mixing and how in live situations digital has advantages like: 1. Being able to do "scenes" with a digital board (which cannot be done with an analog board); 2. Having a ton of virtrual "outboard gear" built in; 3. Multiple boards can share the same stage rack (containing the preamps and A-D converters); 4. The snake to the FOH position can be as simple as a thin flexible network cable or fiber (as opposed to a huge/stiff cable containing 20+ audio channels); 5. No quality degregation recording to a DAW since the signal is already digital; and many more.
Thanks for the reaction. As far as I know they have some backing tracks here and there. For example you can (barely) hear another rythm guitar in the background when Dany is playing a solo or a specific riff. Or they have some piano parts in a few songs which you can hear very clearly in Survive. But it's all their production and adds a kick to the whole show. They don't do much of a post production, they sound the same live.
They have it all. Their youth… looks.. musicianship… song writing… consistency… and energy… The Warning is just the perfect live rock band. I’m sure their sound engineers and crew do their best to make adjustments to bring out the best sound for every venue but… the 3 sisters still have to execute every night. You can adjust and make plans as best as you can but without solid execution from the sisters… it can all fall like a house of cards. If I can only be in one concert for the rest of my life… it will be The Warning. Hands down. They came. They rocked. They conquered.
If you think Pau singing behind the kit was impressive in this performance, you should check out their song 23 also from this venue. IMO I'm more impressed by this performance seeing her ability to sing while playing the drums. Thanks for the reaction, guys. 👍⚡⚡⚡
I'm having conflict over making 23 my favorite over Evolve which at the time that I heard it I thought was the perfect rock song. If it happens oh well, I'm sure that I'll Survive. 🤘😜
Thank you both for such a good, entertaining, interesting and fun reaction, as usual with TW, my favorite rock band of all time (and it hasn't reached the top yet, but they will get there). Greetings from México!! 🇲🇽 🤘😁✌️
Dust to Dust is the intro song on DPA/TW's "Queen of the Murder Scene" concept album (aka QOTMS)... it is inviting you in to hear the deep, dark, and foreboding story of a young woman apparently in love with someone that doesn't even know she exists... QOTMS is one of those albums best experienced by listening to it from beginning to end in order... listening to each of the songs piecemeal and out of order is like trying to figure out a movie by catching a portion near the end, one from near the beginning, and one near the middle... yeah, it won't work out very well... as a concept album, many of us members of TWA can easily see it as a movie or Broadway stage performance... it is that good and to think it was written by them at a very young age and released as their 2nd album! i mean... whoa! who does that?? 😹 TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA
This converted me from someone who would say they only listened to “classical music” to feeling like a spell cast over me that opened my heart and ears to appreciate so much more music, but it took three of the most talented artists and become a Warning army member.
I came upon your channel because of your reactions to The Warning. Your are showing a preference for the Warning's live performances which is fair because the are incredible live but there are to videos you should react too. Their video for EVOLVE was shot with 7 iPhones and a drone. It is bloodraisingly entertaining. It will raise your hairs!! Also, Metallica released an album celebrating the 30th anniversary of their self titled Metallica album, They asked 50 artistes to do interpretation of the songs on the album. Not covers but interpretations. They asked The Warning and popstar Alesia Cara to do an interpretation of Enter Sandman. The video is AWESOME. Don't start with the live performance because it's without Alessia Cara. While you're at it, Check out the video for Disciple has good production value. Very entertaining. Quick note. Paulina sings while she runs to increase her performance stamina and the 3 girls do weight training for the same purpose.
Dany uses a pedal board for the sound and tone your talking about. There's a video to explain how she does it she is a complete nerd when it comes to her sound. This song is fantastic Pau is a phenom to be able to drum those intricate fills etc while belting out so perfectly blows my mind every time she takes the lead on vocals. Ale is always so flawless with her basslines but she really stands out in this performance there's a video for her equipment as well. Dany's ending vocal is sick they are just so impressive. Love your reactions and enjoy your attention to TW so thank you both.🤟🔥⚡⚡⚡
I've always preferred the original live version of this song for reactions, feeling the energy was better when the song was fresh to them. I still love it, but today I concede that this version is amazing and I'm happy to see it take the place of the Lunario version. I still hold my ground that the original live Narcisista at Foro Didi is the superior version though. Pau's energy is just amazing there.
I've been following them since 2014 and became a patron years back. They are incredible musicians and people, and many of us in the army will always back them, and it's almost feels like they are your daughters. I think we all get emotional when we see something good or a dream of theirs comes true. They make their fans feel like family and nobody else does that. They genuinely care about their fans
Another excellent reaction from you two. The amount of talent, dedication, work ethic, and appeal that these three young women have is unheard of. Their live shows are all extraordinary in their own way, and all three of them have great stage presence and the ability to connect with the crowd. Bands like The Warning are rare in this day and age, and I feel like they are going to rise to the top of the music world in the next year.
Hi Dave and Ash! Dany, along with being an incredible front woman, singer, guitar player and riff master, is a master of her guitar effects. She combines many effects and makes a wall of sound. I have seen them live 4 times, three times in small venues and watched them all up close. They are even better than you think they are. The wall of sound they hit you with is indescribable. Their playing is better than you imagine, their singing is better than you imagine, and their energy is off the charts. I have never travelled more than 2 or 3 hours to see a concert, but I travelled 9 hours for them, and I am flying to Mexico to see them again. They are THAT good!
Hello Dave & Ash. Geat reaction as ever. If you look carefully, Pau has a laptop onthe left of her drum kit. Throughout the concert we hear both piano and ghost baking vocals, which I am sure are played through the computer. These days, a pre-rcorded track negates the need to employ an extra musician, although on the tracks 'Narcissista' and 'Revenant' drums and acoustic guitar is played by an additional male musician. Take care both. Cheers
PPau has been singing and playing the drums at the same time since...she started playing the drums. It was one of his first drum teachers who encouraged him to do it. It's Ale at 12-13 who compose the main part of this song)
Note for Ash. This song is the prologue to their awesome 2018 Queen of the Murder Scene concept album. Eventually you should react to the entire album live at Lunario CDMX. Reactors have either done this one at a time or as an entire live stream.
You really should listen to Revenant from this same concert, Pau sings, no drums, just acoustic guitars, a base and harmonies. It is really beautiul and Pau's vocals are fantastic.
Yes, Dany uses both octave shift and delay effects sent through a second channel to fatten the sound and give the illusion of a second guitar. She also typically programs different distortions and effects into her footboard depending on whether she’s playing a verse, chorus, or solo. Enjoyed your reaction! 👍😎
Back when you were doing office bloke reactions I messaged you to invite you to the UK private show but got no response, shame as I think you would have enjoyed it. The show was organised and paid for by fans and has a professionally shot video on UA-cam
I have been to one of their concert in Toronto in August 2023. Yes, they are this loud live just 3 of them and the venue they perform was a small bar that did not have a lot of musical accessories to complement their performance.
Dany uses a Kemper pedal board and often splits her input to include two different octaves that will be played on two different channels to get that "wall of sound" that you hear. Pau triggers the board from her drums and the Mac sends the programs to Dany's board so that she can get different tones for each part in each song....❤
Pau and Dany are unbelievably fit. I cannot speak to Ale' because I have not seen her doing the workouts that Dany and Pau are doing (UA-cam videos of their workouts). Pau also sings while running in order to build and keep her cardio strength for this kind of singing!
There is a published video where Dany the guitarist explains how the entire guitar show works, first the pedal board has a phase shift programming, which causes a second guitar, increasing the noise of the first, another is that the pedal board itself has one click connected to Pau's laptop, where they place only a rhythm guitar and sound effects, only to accompany only the sections where they need strength, but everything controlled by Paulina the drummer, in fact everything is 100% live, it is only for boost force in a short section. If you listen to the entire concert, there are songs without any harmonic effect, just them, their instruments and voices. And yes bass have distortions effects too, keep rockin.
The band is best experienced live, so here is a fan-created sequential playlist of ALL the clips from their now-legendary 2022 Teatro Metropolitan (Metropolitan Theatre) concert, plus a link for the entire concert (all taken from the band's offical UA-cam channel). It includes all the songs from their recent album ERROR plus highlights from their prior two albums and their Blacklist version of "Enter Sandman" - ua-cam.com/play/PLVJLlyTsgzsagBKPKlKNKt6W62rMbyjsQ.html
The reason her guitar sounds so full is that Dany uses a Kemper Profiler pedalboard, where she layers multiple effects that run to the mixer as a stereo output. It's literally a wall of sound (I've heard and felt it live, amazing.) From time to time, you may hear a fill guitar line, sound effects, or keyboards. Pau manages those from her drum kit and laptop running Ableton Live. Other than a compressor effect and occasional distortion, Ale mostly plays a clean bass sound.
I saw in one behind the scenes video, for live shows to fill the sonic space, they split the signal and put a 10ms delay on the split signal to make it sound like two guitarists playing in unison.
Did you notice at 3:26 that Pau is playing single-handedly? She is adjusting something in her back, maybe the volume of her in-ears. The fact that almost no one notices is amazing, since she does not miss one beat.
Great reaction my favorite song by the warning it was the first song I heard and follow them ever since I've been following them for about 5 or 6 years little Ale is my favorite warning I'm so proud of the girls my favorite band
From what I understand Pau rehearses while working out - singing while on a running machine - helps her breathing and to control her voice during physical exertion!
🎵ole ole ole ole Warning Warning🎵¡¡¡ Greetings from Argentina
Best band I have heard in years. Love it!
Also you can see the laptop next to Pau. That's got Ableton I believe running, and they are using that to trigger the extra sounds, and also running the click track. But all the instruments are played by the band themselves.
Why the guitar sound is so "big"; In Dani's equipment rundown vid (on their channel) she explained that one of the things her pedal board allows is separate channels for the left and right speakers. This allows her to apply a delay on one channel of a couple milliseconds to give a fuller sound. Her setup does let her do far more than that but it's best just to watch it and see.
They just give me goosebumps every single time. They basically evolve the genre to an incredible point, it is obvious that they will be one of the biggest bands in the world soon. So much energy, so much talent, great compositions, just outrageous. Their parents must be soooo proud, can you imagine ?
Dave ..adding Ash has helped your channel so much ..love her …The Warning rules …
I couldn't count how many times I've seen and heard this and it still feels epic.
The smile on your face during that song says it all!!
Yeah Pau practices singing while running on the treadmill to keep herself even vocally while drumming. These young ladies really are amazing!!! 🤘😝🤘
Pau also does a great job singing on their song 23 from the same concert
Dany has an effect programmed on here peddle board that allows for an extra guitar. It's a small delay she has set up to give the illusion of another guitar while she is playing. In 2020 she did a rundown of her peddle board and the effects she can do with it.
Danny did a video explaining her effects peddles at the base of her mike stand. one she uses alot repeats what she's playing with a .2 sec delay and comes from the other side of the stage, making it sound like 2 separate guitars
She uses a stereo effect on her guitar , Dany is big into the technical side of guitar effects and patches .
Dany has a Kemper pedal board that can duplicate/triplicate her guitar signal in different octaves each with different effects/delays. She can simulate dual leads. Additionally, Pau has a laptop to her left that they use to add backing tracks/sounds. These are usually recorded of them in advance (except sounds like sirens and other non-instruments). Finally, they have a click track (also from the laptop) that keeps them synchronized.
I like your analysis of Dany’s guitar work. Dany is super underrated when it comes to her guitar playing. She does a lot of cool stuff with her pedalboard and switching between effects. Super underrated
I listen to The Warning, I smile, I watch your reaction, i see your wide smile, I smile...
And my coworkers wonder what the hell I'm watching 😁
Dany's end vocal wraps up this song with a beautiful bow ...
Dany explained what she does for her live guitar sound. She uses a Kemper Profiler pedal board and she splits the mono line out into 2 left & right channels with a slight delay into one of the channels, so that is why the guitar's soundstage sounds much bigger than normal. It is to be noted that they do use backing tracks to add some rhythm guitar parts when necessary, but they are all played by Dany.
Also an interesting anecdote regarding their live performances, for the official music video of Money that was released by MTV, they used video recorded for the big stage screens, but the audio was replaced by the studio version and apparently the girls were so on point, that they were able to just drop the studio audio and only needed to do very minimal timing adjustments and the audio worked perfectly over the live performance.
Dany and Ale do use a LOT of pedals to fill out their sound.
In my limited understanding, Dany takes the raw sound from her guitar and splits it three ways, one way has a pedal effect for the main sound the other two are delayed and routed left and right with a slightly fuzzier sound so that it sounds like three guitars playing off one instrument.
Im not a tech guy but thats what i have gleaned from prior conversations on this topic.
✌️💖🎼
Dany's main tone is mono from the miced Orange amp on stage to front of house and the kemper is run stereo DI to front of house with different octaves and effects on each channel to fill out the sound. The wife and I are have a lot of fun watching the two of you keep up the great work.
Probably my favorite The Warning song
Dave, even though you have already heard this song, it is okay to smile and show a little bit of emotion. LOL As for backtracks, yes, they do use them, but sparingly. Enter Sandman has Alessia singing in it. That is why they always give her full credit when they announce the song. When they add more guitar, it is Dany playing.

Having said that, they have had full backtrack failures during a concert, and the audience was not aware of it. The extra sound they add is for the listening enjoyment of the audience, and not because they can't sound good without it. They sound great, just a little more of their own sound, made by them. It's the same with Nightwish, except NW uses the London Philharmonic and The London Adult and Child Choir in their backtracks at their concerts, and not recordings of the band playing all of the different instruments. You and Ash should do more first time reactions of TW together!!! "First Time"!!
Ash has the happiest eyes I've ever seen!!! She has such a good time watching The Warning. Every time I watch her react to a new The Warning video it makes my cheeks hurt too!
You two are wonderful!
The ladies do use backtracks, usually a second guitar, sometimes a keyboard, and rarely a vocal.

As Dany said in "Mayday in the Making" documentary - this is me. this is who i am. do you like it?
The main power of them is harmonizing. Its something not so easy to achieve even in more expirienced musicians. Greetings from Panama
I think this was the show where Pau was in tears at the end (and comforted by Ale) because the crowd showed so much love to them. We love them and they return that love, they are awesome ❤🤘
Dany raising her fist in triumph to the crowd, while Pau has her back turned to the crowd to hide her tears as she cries on Ale's shoulder.
It's a great picture, the show meant a lot to the band, and its one of those things that really made me appreciate them on another level when I saw it.
indeed it was,, so touching,, the emotional release..
Yes indeed she cried. She was close to tears during Martirio.
It was at the end of the second sold out night.
Hi from Sweden.
Did you know that it´s Pau (the drummer) who write most of the songs and lyric on piano and then brings it too the two sisters and complete the songs with them.
Pau is the great OG there,
The sheer joy on Ash's face the entire time is amazing.
❤it
Ash is great. Love seeing people's spirit be lifted to the magic of Rock n Roll. 😈🤘
That's what I love. Her face was actually aching from smiling on one reaction. THAT'S what we're hoping for. 😂
🤘😎👍
Others may have said this already but I believe Pau sings while running on a treadmill to help her with her singing and drumming. As for rock being dead, it has not been in the mainstream for a long while but there are plenty of good rock bands around, including The Warning of course.

I've seen this band live 7 times already. Not a lot of post-production on the audio. They sound EXACTLY like this live. It's a massive wall of sound.
Can confirm. Saw them on back to back nights and the only difference between what you're watching on the screen and in person is that they sound BETTER in person.
No fanboying whatsoever.
Not that I didn't believe they weren't better in person, but I didn't expect them to sound THAT much better. It's absurd how better they sound live.
Absolutely. What was kind of interesting is I saw them last year at a festival, so like (I think) 9 bands played throughout the day. Most bands - including TW - played through the venue sound system, using the permanently installed sound board. A couple bands had their own equipment hauled up the stairs to the "booth" (just a low pipe fence around the equipment right in the middle of the audience)... and hands down, _The Warning_ had the absolute *best* sound of the whole selection of bands. Whomever was working the board that day did absolute magic, for sure - and of course the ladies are experts at shoving the pixies down the wires. 😋
@@MrJest2it was perhaps Lalo working the board with Luis as a 2nd set of ears. Plus DPA also have good ears and know what to expect and do.
They use backing tracks. Daniela explained that a hundred times.
That's common knowledge. The reference was to " post-production" that is added after a concert.@@alfredo8a336
Really enjoying your reactions. Can’t wait to see more. 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Ale's basslines for this song are amazing, especially when you consider she wrote them when she was 12 or 13. Pau doing Pau things, singing and playing drums at the same time. Dany seems to appreciate being able to walk away from the microphone to rock out whenever Pau is singing lead. Dany is a total guitar nerd and she uses several effects to create the wall-of-guitar sound. They have done videos explaining their individual rigs, though I think Dany has improved her set up a good bit since she did the last one. Dany and Pau coordinate on the guitar effects to run everything through the Ableton Live software that runs their backing track from their studio stems during their live shows. So, everything Dany does is something she created, whether it is a sampled or performed live. They did some editing of the audio and video for this concert recording between the two dates they performed at the same venue, but I'm pretty sure that anything they modified on the sound track was between the two master recordings that were captured from the sound mixer board and not anything done in studio after the fact. They may have adjusted the mic levels from the raw capture, but from what people who were there at the concerts have reported, this is what the concert sounded like for them.
I believe since Dany moved to using the Kemper pedal board there is no longer any "patch changes" being triggered form Ableton Live to Dany's pedal board. I could be wrong.
One time last year after finishing a show Pau logged on to Patreon or Instagram because she needed to unwind, they had to get to sleep because they were on the road early the next morning. So she says "what's everyone up to?" If you can name another rockstar that dials up their followers after a concert to chat, let me know. No wonder their fans are diehards. They make everyone feel like family.
gr8 reaction ... when you get around to queen of the murder scene ... do the lunario cdmx live vids and do them in order ... they tell an epic story with this album ... r0ck 0n ... \m/ p.s. - dust to dust is the first song and prologue to that epic story p.p.s. - dany uses a stereo effect with most of her guitars that makes it sound like a wall of sound... coming from both sides and the center ... slightly out of phase ... BIG sound
Their sound is so big for a three piece! I saw them live this summer and it is incredible. Their tone is awesome and they have great sound engineering
In addition to the fat guitar sound produced by splitting the guitar channel, Ale continuously adjusts her play to shift between root notes, chords and leads depending on what Dany is doing on guitar, which makes it easy for her to add some depth while Dany is doing a lead (with or without a prerecorded rhythym track). For some songs Ale also adds fuzz distortion which allows her to easily play a distorted rhythym guitar tone.
Thanks for another reaction of TW! Can’t wait until the next one!!🔥⚡️
Every song in this concert is amazing. Pick another one at random. It'll be great.
There’s drummers, there’s singers, there’s singing drummers…and then there’s Pau!
You need to do the warning “23” live from this show Pau the drummer puts on a show
Pau is a five foot tall stick of dynamite! So much talent, drums, vocals, song writing, piano and producer! This whole band is next level!
Yep!!! and with Pau...the fuse is lit!!!
Pau is a pocket-sized nuclear reactor {I stole that from another commenter, but I totally agree} We saw them in May of this year and I can honestly say they are one of the best live bands I have ever seen. Their performance was absolutely stunning. Pau was recently voted the number 1 best up-and-coming drummer in Modern Drummer Magazine for 2023.
My intro to them was live ... so when they had finished and Pau came out from behind the kit for the group bow, my jaw dropped!
@@joelpinckney9782 Same here, it was a bit of a shock because she projects so much power!
@@jimschoeff4185 I call her the "Nuclear Pau Plant"
His lady has a 1000 diffrent facial expressions 😂
You're not wrong they are a band you have to see live, managed to earlier this year in London and they didn't disappoint
Excellent ear regarding the effects on Dany's guitar and the technical aspects of what is happening. I'm sure another TWA member will follow up with exactly what is happening but stereo effect, phase shift, etc., I think you're on the right track. Obviously the sound on this recording was straight to the board and mixed in post but there are fan recorded videos of this concert that you can find that show exactly how big they sound live and honestly its amazing. Great reaction. This entire Teatro Metropolitan concert was amazing and they have another sold out show in October that I'm guess will be just as well if not MORE so. Maybe some new music?
excelente reacción, THE WARNING presente y futuro del ROCK!!!🤘🤘⚡
Playing live really is their superpower. I have seen them 5 times now and been blown away every time. I expect you two would really enjoy seeing them next time The Warning come through the UK. Great reaction. Glad to see you have the same reaction many of us do as well.
RE: The guitar tone.. I remember Dany talking about how the signal is split and one side has like a 10ms delay which really adds to the thickness of the 1 guitar. There are 1 or 2 of occasions where a guitar backing track plays, but it's not a duplication, it's playing the rhythm while Dany solos. She also uses a harmonizer that will play an octive higher or lower sometimes as well.
Ale is so damn awesome to watch in this concert I watched multiple fan vids and she was just spectacular.
The bass open by Ale was sick. Pau singing lead with Dany singing backup on this song is killer. These women rock! 🤟🤟
This song is the intro to their concept album _Queen of the Murder Scene,_ which tells of a girl going from love to obsession, stalking, murder, and then the fight with her evil side for her soul. You should do the whole album in order, with 'Crimson Queen' next. The Lunario and Foro Didi shows are excellent.
There are enough of the Warning Army that actually know everything about the set up that someone in Chat will know what they have done to the track here but there is definitely some effect on Dany's guitar. As far as fitness these girls when they were younger would be knackered after performances now because they have purposely worked on their fitness they could perform 2 hours go out and run 6 miles then run it down mid. Most bands go out drink, party and go crazy The Warning hit the gym and listen to other bands.
Yes, Dany does use octave effects, and splits the signal with a delay and a couple other adjustments gives an incredibly full sound. There are videos in which she's goes over her rig and explains things. Several, in fact, as she's changed her setup over the years. I don't remember full details, but I'm sure someone can fill in more specifics.
Unless the mic on Dany's guitar cab is being used for other purposes I am guessing all the sound engineers (FOH, monitor, recording) get the miked sound from her guitar cab as well as the L/R direct out from her Kemper pedal board so it gives them more options in tweaking her sound for their specific purpose. (P.S. I don't see pictures of it but based upon a former setup I am guessing the Ale has both the miked output from her bass cab as well as a direct output going to the consoles.) In the "Nerd" category, for this show were all three boards (FOH, monitor, recording) using the same stage rack for preamps/A-D conversion or was the analog signal split between the FOH+monitor boards and the recording board?
@@tomland9293 I always like reading the tech details even though I just have an inexpensive guitar and a little practice amp with some budget pedals. So I only really grasp half of it but I’m learning.
@@spaceknaveI don't play but I have a little experience with sound and lighting in high school and sound for church services. I have always been curious of why things (and bands) work the way they do so I keep following gear and technology changes. It took me a bit to understand how digital sound mixing is different from analog sound mixing and how in live situations digital has advantages like: 1. Being able to do "scenes" with a digital board (which cannot be done with an analog board); 2. Having a ton of virtrual "outboard gear" built in; 3. Multiple boards can share the same stage rack (containing the preamps and A-D converters); 4. The snake to the FOH position can be as simple as a thin flexible network cable or fiber (as opposed to a huge/stiff cable containing 20+ audio channels); 5. No quality degregation recording to a DAW since the signal is already digital; and many more.
Paulina would run and sing while on a treadmill to acquire breath control and stamina.
Thanks for the reaction. As far as I know they have some backing tracks here and there. For example you can (barely) hear another rythm guitar in the background when Dany is playing a solo or a specific riff. Or they have some piano parts in a few songs which you can hear very clearly in Survive. But it's all their production and adds a kick to the whole show. They don't do much of a post production, they sound the same live.
Dany's pedel board is doing a delay 10ms, so the guitar sound Is bigger, she have explained in a video.
Ahh and I was there!! And that was a night amazing!!! They sounds amazing.
They have it all. Their youth… looks.. musicianship… song writing… consistency… and energy… The Warning is just the perfect live rock band.
I’m sure their sound engineers and crew do their best to make adjustments to bring out the best sound for every venue but… the 3 sisters still have to execute every night. You can adjust and make plans as best as you can but without solid execution from the sisters… it can all fall like a house of cards.
If I can only be in one concert for the rest of my life… it will be The Warning. Hands down.
They came. They rocked. They conquered.
If you think Pau singing behind the kit was impressive in this performance, you should check out their song 23 also from this venue. IMO I'm more impressed by this performance seeing her ability to sing while playing the drums. Thanks for the reaction, guys. 👍⚡⚡⚡
this!
I'm having conflict over making 23 my favorite over Evolve which at the time that I heard it I thought was the perfect rock song. If it happens oh well, I'm sure that I'll Survive. 🤘😜
Thank you both for such a good, entertaining, interesting and fun reaction, as usual with TW, my favorite rock band of all time (and it hasn't reached the top yet, but they will get there).
Greetings from México!! 🇲🇽
🤘😁✌️
Dust to Dust is the intro song on DPA/TW's "Queen of the Murder Scene" concept album (aka QOTMS)... it is inviting you in to hear the deep, dark, and foreboding story of a young woman apparently in love with someone that doesn't even know she exists... QOTMS is one of those albums best experienced by listening to it from beginning to end in order... listening to each of the songs piecemeal and out of order is like trying to figure out a movie by catching a portion near the end, one from near the beginning, and one near the middle... yeah, it won't work out very well... as a concept album, many of us members of TWA can easily see it as a movie or Broadway stage performance... it is that good and to think it was written by them at a very young age and released as their 2nd album! i mean... whoa! who does that?? 😹
TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA
This converted me from someone who would say they only listened to “classical music” to feeling like a spell cast over me that opened my heart and ears to appreciate so much more music, but it took three of the most talented artists and become a Warning army member.
I came upon your channel because of your reactions to The Warning. Your are showing a preference for the Warning's live performances which is fair because the are incredible live but there are to videos you should react too. Their video for EVOLVE was shot with 7 iPhones and a drone. It is bloodraisingly entertaining. It will raise your hairs!! Also, Metallica released an album celebrating the 30th anniversary of their self titled Metallica album, They asked 50 artistes to do interpretation of the songs on the album. Not covers but interpretations. They asked The Warning and popstar Alesia Cara to do an interpretation of Enter Sandman. The video is AWESOME. Don't start with the live performance because it's without Alessia Cara. While you're at it, Check out the video for Disciple has good production value. Very entertaining. Quick note. Paulina sings while she runs to increase her performance stamina and the 3 girls do weight training for the same purpose.
Dany uses a pedal board for the sound and tone your talking about. There's a video to explain how she does it she is a complete nerd when it comes to her sound. This song is fantastic Pau is a phenom to be able to drum those intricate fills etc while belting out so perfectly blows my mind every time she takes the lead on vocals. Ale is always so flawless with her basslines but she really stands out in this performance there's a video for her equipment as well. Dany's ending vocal is sick they are just so impressive. Love your reactions and enjoy your attention to TW so thank you both.🤟🔥⚡⚡⚡
I've always preferred the original live version of this song for reactions, feeling the energy was better when the song was fresh to them. I still love it, but today I concede that this version is amazing and I'm happy to see it take the place of the Lunario version.
I still hold my ground that the original live Narcisista at Foro Didi is the superior version though. Pau's energy is just amazing there.
I've been following them since 2014 and became a patron years back. They are incredible musicians and people, and many of us in the army will always back them, and it's almost feels like they are your daughters. I think we all get emotional when we see something good or a dream of theirs comes true. They make their fans feel like family and nobody else does that. They genuinely care about their fans
Another excellent reaction from you two. The amount of talent, dedication, work ethic, and appeal that these three young women have is unheard of. Their live shows are all extraordinary in their own way, and all three of them have great stage presence and the ability to connect with the crowd. Bands like The Warning are rare in this day and age, and I feel like they are going to rise to the top of the music world in the next year.
Goooo PAU!!!!!!!!
Hi Dave and Ash! Dany, along with being an incredible front woman, singer, guitar player and riff master, is a master of her guitar effects. She combines many effects and makes a wall of sound. I have seen them live 4 times, three times in small venues and watched them all up close. They are even better than you think they are. The wall of sound they hit you with is indescribable. Their playing is better than you imagine, their singing is better than you imagine, and their energy is off the charts. I have never travelled more than 2 or 3 hours to see a concert, but I travelled 9 hours for them, and I am flying to Mexico to see them again. They are THAT good!
Hello Dave & Ash. Geat reaction as ever. If you look carefully, Pau has a laptop onthe left of her drum kit. Throughout the concert we hear both piano and ghost baking vocals, which I am sure are played through the computer. These days, a pre-rcorded track negates the need to employ an extra musician, although on the tracks 'Narcissista' and 'Revenant' drums and acoustic guitar is played by an additional male musician. Take care both. Cheers
Last TW song you hear, is always your new favorite. It's a real thing. LOL
PPau has been singing and playing the drums at the same time since...she started playing the drums. It was one of his first drum teachers who encouraged him to do it.
It's Ale at 12-13 who compose the main part of this song)
Note for Ash. This song is the prologue to their awesome 2018 Queen of the Murder Scene concept album. Eventually you should react to the entire album live at Lunario CDMX. Reactors have either done this one at a time or as an entire live stream.
You really should listen to Revenant from this same concert, Pau sings, no drums, just acoustic guitars, a base and harmonies. It is really beautiul and Pau's vocals are fantastic.
Yes, Dany uses both octave shift and delay effects sent through a second channel to fatten the sound and give the illusion of a second guitar. She also typically programs different distortions and effects into her footboard depending on whether she’s playing a verse, chorus, or solo. Enjoyed your reaction! 👍😎
Back when you were doing office bloke reactions I messaged you to invite you to the UK private show but got no response, shame as I think you would have enjoyed it. The show was organised and paid for by fans and has a professionally shot video on UA-cam
I have been to one of their concert in Toronto in August 2023. Yes, they are this loud live just 3 of them and the venue they perform was a small bar that did not have a lot of musical accessories to complement their performance.
The power of Orange Amplification!!! LOVE This band!!
Dany uses a Kemper pedal board and often splits her input to include two different octaves that will be played on two different channels to get that "wall of sound" that you hear. Pau triggers the board from her drums and the Mac sends the programs to Dany's board so that she can get different tones for each part in each song....❤
Pau and Dany are unbelievably fit. I cannot speak to Ale' because I have not seen her doing the workouts that Dany and Pau are doing (UA-cam videos of their workouts). Pau also sings while running in order to build and keep her cardio strength for this kind of singing!
There is a published video where Dany the guitarist explains how the entire guitar show works, first the pedal board has a phase shift programming, which causes a second guitar, increasing the noise of the first, another is that the pedal board itself has one click connected to Pau's laptop, where they place only a rhythm guitar and sound effects, only to accompany only the sections where they need strength, but everything controlled by Paulina the drummer, in fact everything is 100% live, it is only for boost force in a short section. If you listen to the entire concert, there are songs without any harmonic effect, just them, their instruments and voices. And yes bass have distortions effects too, keep rockin.
Pau jogs and sings to learn breath control for when she sings live
In my opinion, Paulina's best performance is the song 23 from this same concert. It is mindblowing how good she is..
The band is best experienced live, so here is a fan-created sequential playlist of ALL the clips from their now-legendary 2022 Teatro Metropolitan (Metropolitan Theatre) concert, plus a link for the entire concert (all taken from the band's offical UA-cam channel). It includes all the songs from their recent album ERROR plus highlights from their prior two albums and their Blacklist version of "Enter Sandman" - ua-cam.com/play/PLVJLlyTsgzsagBKPKlKNKt6W62rMbyjsQ.html
Pau the drummer just one an award for best aspiring drummer of 2023!
Very pretty. You can't go wrong with the Teatro concert.
Pau blows my mind every time I see or listen to The Warning...she is insane.
⚡✌️🤘⚠️⚡ Keep em Coming! As always, Rock On TW Army!⚡✌️🤟⚠️⚡
Ale uses a five string Spector base using a drop d tuning. Gives it a heavier sound.
The Warning; No auto-tuning... EVER! Just to clarify.
They do use effects on the pedal boards. Some songs do run a second guitar track when Dany switches to lead from rhythm.
The reason her guitar sounds so full is that Dany uses a Kemper Profiler pedalboard, where she layers multiple effects that run to the mixer as a stereo output. It's literally a wall of sound (I've heard and felt it live, amazing.) From time to time, you may hear a fill guitar line, sound effects, or keyboards. Pau manages those from her drum kit and laptop running Ableton Live. Other than a compressor effect and occasional distortion, Ale mostly plays a clean bass sound.
I saw in one behind the scenes video, for live shows to fill the sonic space, they split the signal and put a 10ms delay on the split signal to make it sound like two guitarists playing in unison.
The Warning!! 🔥 🤘
Did you notice at 3:26 that Pau is playing single-handedly? She is adjusting something in her back, maybe the volume of her in-ears. The fact that almost no one notices is amazing, since she does not miss one beat.
Great reaction my favorite song by the warning it was the first song I heard and follow them ever since I've been following them for about 5 or 6 years little Ale is my favorite warning I'm so proud of the girls my favorite band
From what I understand Pau rehearses while working out - singing while on a running machine - helps her breathing and to control her voice during physical exertion!
The bass is going to be playing the root notes of the guitar...You seriously underestimate the virtuosity of Ale...
