Просмотров 1,7 тыс.3 года назад
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! My buddies Ricky and Daniel from RED HOT RIOT (UK), join me this week to bring you a trans-continental cover of Gargoyles Over Copenhagen by the legendary NEKROMANTIX. We each recorded our parts and the boys sent them over from across the pond. This was a real test of my painfully rudimentary understanding of audio and video editing but to be fair everything on this channel is ...

With time this shadow rb system gets too many failures. (The connectors at the bottom of the pre-amp get flimsy and cause distortion)
What’s the fingerboard out forn
For
I just picked one of these up, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. I believe it's because I have nylon strings. Do you have any recommendations on what strings would work well for this equipment and work well with slap?
Hey I also use nylon strings . What seems to be the problem ? It’s always sounded awesome with nylon
I'm wondering about gain where do you set them? I keep mine at 12 o'clock
Salut et merci pour les infos mais à quoi sert les prises "POWER MONO OUT" et "FINGERBOARD OUT" ?
Power mono out - quand tu insère un câble le system s’active , le signal qui sort va être un mix de slap et pickup du pont. Quand tu insère un deuxième câble dans fingerboard out la signal du click et pont va être séparé dans c’est deux lignes la. C’est cool pour l’enregistrement mais à tout les jours je plug mon wireless dans le power mono
Awesome, effortless playing dude. Just recently discovered The Brains, awesome shit
Awesome playing and sound!! What technique is that where your fretting hand comes down? For percussive effect ? Neat!
0:53 it’s called double overhand slap. I use it to machine gun an open string
@@colinthedead hell yeah, sounds great.
Hey what's up Colin? Just purchased on of these shadows and I was just curious about the reliability? Any know issues or is it a pretty solid device?
I have had the same one on my bass for like 8 years and it’s been flawless
He was impressive on stage. I remember the multiple audio cords coiled together sticking out from his electrified bass. bigger and bader! fyi: Wampas and Les Wampas is the same band. Still around. They started by playing psycho-Billy then switched to punk and a more pop sound lately.
Great video! Thank you so much. Have you used k&k rockabilly system. I have lost my pickup and now consider to buy this one
Yes I had the kk system before this and it’s great too I just think shadow makes an improved version
Well, I got the Shadow based on this video and damn! I can now state I totally upgraded my bass! I never expected it to work properly on my electric Stagg bass, but the sound coming from it is equal to that of a regular double bass. I also upgraded my strings from weed whackers to rotosound. Perfect combination! Thanks for the video!
Love it, I'm looking to eventually get a upright
Hej Colin....Can you help me out please. My slap signal disappears while playing. It's if the input is too high and my amp (Genz Benz 1200 + HLF 610) shuts off. I think that this problem originates within the Shadow. What's your opinion?? Thanks!!
Hey, Karel. Try reducing the gain levels on the shadow unit. Hope it helps
@@colinthedead Gonna try that one! Thanks! I was wandering if the ' Phase' button could solve the problem??
Helpful video thnx for that. You have some tips for wireless systems - compatible with Shadow ?
get yer asses to Vancouver ....please....
Coming in July!
Show it in start before playing... how push it on the instrument. Notice pratic thanks
I just got the system. I can't tell all the settings from the video? I don't know which switches are pressed down and what about the gain knobs? Also i'm interested about the volumes on each pickup? Thank you so much.
All buttons are pushed in, gain is flat on both channels ( 6 o clock) . Volume is pretty even between the two but I play around with it from time to time.
@@colinthedead thanks! Ummm, do you mean 6 o'clock when you are looking the apparatus from the front or up?
Hello ! Super ! Je suis contrebassiste depuis quelques années dans le millieu Rockab, j'envisage de me prendre une nouvelle contrebasse, je voulais savoir quel setup tu as ? (Modèle et tout le bordel) Merci à toi ! ;)
Blast Cult 145 contrebasse, pont fait par deuce bridge . Cordes Innovation silver slap de GHS . Mais j’ai un autre vidéo qui explique en détail tout mes equipments .
You guys are very talented! Keep on rockin! :D
The shadow bridge pickup is fucking ass the end piece of where it connects to the pre amp it got bent and it broke i tried contacting shadow and they haven’t answered i’ve been also going on the site to see if they have a replacement part and they do but guess what it’s “coming soon “ it’s been saying that for ages idk if shadow has a number or something cuz email definitely doesn’t work
Cool video ! I love those pickups too, they sound so good !
Hi Colin, thanks for the really helpful video. Could you just confirm, that the 2 pickup signals are mixed within the pre-amp - so only one cable from pre-amp to main amp? Many thanks for help
That’s right Donald!
@@colinthedead Thanks Colin! Really appreciate you taking the time
Great sound and playing!! I love it. I am a fan of Alain,too. which brand of strings do you use in video??
Innovation silver slaps by GHS
@@colinthedead Thanks!! I will check it.
This is awesome thanks so much for sharing man. Is your bass 3/4?
Yes it is!
AMAZING
give us the Upright bass tabs, pleeeeeease!!!
And take away the fun of letting you figure it out by yourself??? No way! Haha trust me, learning it by ear will make you a better bassist. You can do it!
I've been trying to find such a video for a while! Really useful. Looking forward to more content in your channel
Great video !
🦇🦇🦇🦇
Ha, that was awesome! You have such a great style & sound, really dig it. Can't wait for another episode of this series, cheers!
Are you using an in ear monitor if so could you recommend one im in the market for one atm and music shops are closed in my state
I use the shure 215 model, it’s a cheaper one for sure and by no means the best one out there but for the price it works great!
wow. Nice!
What are the degrees in the back? Surely one is a masters in slapbassology.
Great video mate, love happy drivers
Wampas and Les Wampas is indeed the same band....they did however change their style significantly.
Wow! Incredible, thanks for letting me know.
@@colinthedead ps: that plex is nice right?
Man I love it, it’s perfect for this stuff and I can’t wait to try it in a live setting.
Aweeesome ! We should record it !
ABSOLUTELY
great sound ! Looking forward to seeing more of these bass player profiles. Fuck yeah
Thanks man! I’ve certainly got a few more in mind!
Looks like a fun song to play!! Great vid bud!
It’s INSANELY FUN to play , thanks dude
I bought a used pickup and after like 3 gigs it stopped working, even when its connected to a brand new battery the tuner lights up but doesn't tune, i was wondering if you know whats wrong or some advice
You should contact shadow about that. Is it just the tuner that isn’t working or does it not send any signal from the outputs as well?
@@colinthedead nope no signal from the outputs as well
Have you tried it with a 9v adapter cable instead of a battery ? Might be a short circuit in the power supply but like I said , Shadow will know better than me haha.
@@colinthedead I've not tried that I'll see thanks for the reply!
You’re not wrong I have the same issue where it’s not picking signal and I know some one else that had the same thing going on. I assume it’s a common issue All I hear through the pick up is the finger board
Hey Colin, great video! Have you had a chance to compare the GK legacy to the RB? I'm curious as I'm needing to buy a new amp and flipping between the GK legacy 800 and the Mesa subway D800. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.🤘
The gk legacy 800 is excellent! Probably even more tone shaping abilities on it as well. Honestly it was a toss up when I got my Mesa subway d 800 but I figured I already had a 1001rb so why not try something a little different sounding
@@colinthedead good call. Thank you for the reply. 🤘
This was extremely helpful Colin. I've been tweaking my Shadow RB for sometime now, and now I have a tone that I can be happy with. Well for the moment!🤣😂🤘😎
Great to hear! Have fun with it dude!
Very helpful info thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome! Thank you for this!
My pleasure!
Hey man, do you use 9v battery or wire with your Rockabilly Pro? Cheers 🤘🏻
9v. It’s hidden in a compartment behind my coffin tailpiece
I place the slap pickup directly behind where my hand hits the neck
I would not recommend that at all
@@colinthedead its an old trick for getting more slap sound with traditional pickups 👍🏼
Thanks for sharing ! It's awesome and helpful !
Glad you think so! Slappers for the win!
I have these on both my basses and constantly messing with the sound. Thank Colin for the insight!
right on, hopefully i de-mystified it a bit for ya haha
Good, congratulations.
Thank you!
Great vid, you have a new sub! Did you check Smzeus . c o m!? It will help your videos start to trend.
Great work! <3
