    As an IT dude, my favorite parts during the rack tour were "Just a power thing with some numbers there", "It's cool cuzz it looks like little hairs", "Baringer-something", "Hairy toothbrush thing"
    Best homelab tour to date. haha!

      Are you implying that "trap" producers are something special or are you undermining Tim's recording protocol?
      I think he approaches recording just like anyone else who produces ones own music.

    • @FromTheHipp

      @KesterHenry Рік тому +9

      @@FromTheHipp 100% not undermining Tim or Trap Producers. Perhaps I should have elaborated on my comment...my apologies. His style of production isn't something you usually see from folks producing music in styles like Jazz or Rock...all of which I'm a fan of (I also listen to trap).
      But it was a comment in reference to tempo, some of his tones and sound design choices. Not common. Not something most people would usually think of doing (outside of rap/trap/pop) but he shows that it clearly works!

      I'm classically trained, and I can guarantee you most great musicians who haven't received formal training have actually picked up on a lot of theory without realizing it, just from years of internalizing it through practice and experience.

    One tip I have for using the multivoicer, or any archetypes in general - turn your guitar volume knob down to 7-8 and you'll get alot less harsh transients that don't sound good. Even with having your peaks at -6 dB with volume knob all the way up, I've found with single coils it plays alot nicer with it rolled down a bit.

You and Clay and Clay and Scott are all very talented and musical and all of your individual skills really seem to compliment the other members of the band which makes your parts shine even brighter as the blend gets clearer. Really loving the evolution of your sound. See you at a show as soon as I can.

    Valhalla Delay is a powerful delay plugin with many options.
    I use Valhalla Delay with Blue Cat Audio PatchWork to have 8 x parallel Valhalla delays,; PatchWork has effects and utilities, I add a Pan effect after each delay to get sounds centered, near, mid and hard panned in the stereo field, sounds huge and stays clear and articulate. It's a technique Holdsworth created, but it does much more!
