Can anyone name just one of the countless records?
Look for Dann Huff credits. He often mentions it being part of his sound in the 80s in combination with the TC TriChorus. So he would use two time based effects to get that lush clean sound of the time.
Can you name a couple songs that you know it was used on?
I'm not sure about songs, but here are sightings in some pedalboards:
....and expensive these days. But cheaper than the Roland Dimension D rack.
The Helix has a model of it in the Legacy (M9 / M13 models) models added a few years ago. Its not as good as it could be - but does let you have upto 4 presets at once) - but its definitely not impossible to model.
Yes, I have a Helix. Great unit, but I prefer the Kemper effects personally and keep the Line 6 as a backup live.
BOSS DC-3 is stereo
So was the original DC-2.
I checked out a Pete Thorn video on the re-release Dimension C and managed to get a very similar tone from Micro Pitch. There seem to be more controls on this new version than the original, but Detune on 7 and Mix at 50% was good.
It's been a long time since I had a Boss Dimension C and I loved it. Is Micro Pitch really so different, as I can't remember the tone?
You can induce feedback at relatively low levels. When you want to bring it on, just gently touch the guitar headstock on the wooden studio monitor enclosure of one of the speakers.
What update are you guys talking about?
I must be out of touch.
Does anyone know if there are upgrades for the human brain. My memory banks need upgrading.
Maybe we are finally getting that luscious chorus I been dying for. Besides that I can't think of anything I want this thing is already quite amazing.
Ok time to go and google Kemper updates. Keeping my fingers crossed for a chorus. You guys have an awesome day.
It was for tremolo and slicer effects that I remember. Check out Tone Junkie videos from January for a demo. It sounded really good.
The double tracker works really well for me live in a single guitar band. Nothing is perfect and the Kemper is very similar to the TC Mimiq I used before.
Mine is just set to Looseness 4, Stereo 100%, Detune 0, Volume 0. It is not engaged for lead and clean sounds, which already have stereo elements anyway.
Thx … my only concern with the SKB is the weight with the Kemper.
I fly with a Kemper rack in a 3u hardcase as hand luggage. There has never been an issue, although beware of how much weight cables you stuff in might add.
It isn't a good idea with something like that to use a soft case. Occasionally you end up on a small plane where they insist on putting items in the hold.
Some great sounds from that demo with Tone Junkie. The Slicer effect has never been possible really.
Do we have any idea when this update is likely to arrive? Christoph seemed to indicate it was almost done in a video.
The most issues I have with iem are related bone conduction when singing. But that‘s a different issue and we‘re highjacking the thread 😂.
I think I‘ll give it a try at our next rehersal weekend, where we set up the whole PA. But I‘m not relying on that, so everything is fine. Was just a thought.
For me rehearsals are a completely different sound whether you have speakers, or not. For a live show, the weight of sound from the PA at full volume in the venue brings a lot of low end, even through custom old in ears.
TBH I think unless you want specific controlled feedback, this is overkill and creates balance issues. Personally I struggle IEM's but the benefits are huge
A lot of in ear monitors are voiced with too much of a scoop, or overly bright top end. Once I got the out front sound right, it was a gentle roll off from 4k upwards with a 6db curve for the in ears feed from the Kemper (not for FoH).
I apologize to the forum. Don't worry I will not bother anyone again.
That was not an attack on you, but the way I learnt.
I think we've explored every avenue with others help and now it's just time to play and experiment.
This should really be the simplest of guitar techniques to work out. Just play 8th notes at any speed with a simple delay pedal and adjust the delay time until you feel the right effect. This would be how The Edge first worked it out.
You get a result a lot quicker than typing on a forum.
I did allready this. Tried several of them but they are divergent...
Just set the metronome to 127bpm on the Where the Streets profile. First off, see if you can play 8th notes with the delay turned off. Then get someone to turn it on and see if you can keep tempo.
If that doesn't work, maybe it is just not your thing.
Why not just search Rig Manager for Maurizio70 profiles. They all work and sound authentic. Just go to Rig settings and set the BPM of the track.
Thank you all!
I'm not sure how to get that first delay repeat between 2 and 3.
As for that U2 Streets.kpreset, I gladly will try this one if I know how.... Is this just importing in RM? And then how to get it in the fx section?
When pedals were used for delay with no ms readout, it was a case of experimenting. You got used to the technique. Now you can play 8th notes and apply a dotted 8th delay to match tempo in a DAW.
So if you are playing at 120bpm, your notes would be 250ms apart and the delay set to 375ms creating the U2 effect. It sounds more complicated than the playing is. Watch this guy explain it for you:
The first delay repeat should fall between note 2 & 3.
