These Things Make Noises
Великобритания
Добавлен 6 фев 2023
Hi, I'm Dan. Welcome to 'These Things Make Noises'. This channel is a place to share my favourite six string gear, sounds and all things that make noises.
I've spent the last decade playing guitar in what could be described as a heavy indie/alternative, shoe-gazey band (excuse the pretentious pigeon holing, it's necessary I promise).
I'm not promising to be the best player in the world... I mean i'm not even the best guitarist in my own band! But what I lack in technical ability, I make up for in knowing how to get the damn thing I'm hearing in my head out into the speakers!
So, expect cool sounds, barely adequate riffs and terrible jokes.
But most of all expect all things that make noises. x
* I am now offering 1-1 Consultations for any guitar tone/recording/production/songwriting things you might need help with. It's an introductory offer of £50 but will go up in the new year! calendly.com/thesethingsmakenoises/consultation

The GREATEST Distortion Pedal For Alternative/Grunge Guitar You Don't Know...
Silverchair, Superheaven, Soul Blind and Smashing Pumpkins use this a lot
the SPX90 is responcible for the main chorus on Come As You Are and Lithium. The small clone was mainly a live use piece of gear
Yep ! I have the ehx little big muff 🔥. What's the difference with the big box?

I preferred the sound of the Rat just from this video. The DS-1 has a brittle fizzy top end I don't like. It seemed to sit on top and separate from the mix. It almost had that digital sound I associate with bad amp sims.
You you should try a line 6 distorto from the same series that the verbzilla is on, it has a feedback thing like the boss DF2 and Feedback booster do
Phase flanger and wah takes are insane 💀 also playing live shows a vast majority of the time as a smaller band your not and will never be playing a gig where theres a nice proper PA and an engineer so having a compression pedal is almost essential in certain applications, L video
Also flanger is the most versatile modulation pedal because, dialing speed up you enter chorus territory and slowed down you get into phaser territory because of the sweep, flanger is much better on bass because of the frequency sweep, any sort of modulation is great in an alt rock and especially shoegaze setting because getting weird spaced out noise, yes chorus is great and will cover all of your bases most of the time but having something a little different to spice up your sound is never a bad thing, calling any guitar pedal "dated" is insane
Wah is also great for solo boosts, great in tandem with runaway delay for crazy feedback (Nirvanas love buzz cover is a good example) subtle phaser IS the sound of the smashing pumpkins, a great record with wah used more traditionally but still in an alt rock setting is Silent Dynamic Torture, by Super Static fever
they dont compare
saw the heaven up here cover, liked this.
It's like the boss has the low end compressed up. in this video i like the rat more, the boss here sounds like more calling for metal.
90% of these are not available for me because my hand doesn't allow my fingers to stretch this far 😅
Whered you go?
thats so huge man
For me I’ve got a hoof reaper and a line 6 dl4 mk 2 also a Jhs emperor set up in stereo. Les Paul into a pair of orange 60 watt combos. It’s a massive sound.

I like the Rat more but the DS1 is good for when you're layering tracks as well, by having different distortion sounds stacked together you have a more full sound I find.
I like Tubescreamer! I like Tubescreamer!
6: 44 this' so amazing, really cool!
10: 45 yeaaaaaah, so amazing 👊
I fucking hate the ds1 so much.
The RAT's a good call. And you don't need the trem. Distortion > Chorus > delay > Reverb. 4 pedals, into a clean amp. Trem, flange, wah, and so on are all optional, the trem comes from Vox and certain other amps that had trem and also trem on guitars which is actually vibrato but it is not a necessity. Single coils and humbuckers will both work. Also the delay can be fully digital, although a lot of notable bands used 2 analog delays, you can also hear 1 digital delay (probably a dd-2) on a lot of post punk songs (they also use digital delay from the keyboards on synth parts too). Your rite that chorus is a must, specifically Roland/Boss chorus - Juno chorus, Roland Jazz Chorus or the pedals will all do the job.
you look like gustavo cerati
Only just come across your channel - some excellent vids 😎 can I suggest Omar Rodríguez-López - At the Drive In / Mars Volta. Amazing creativity, skill and talent!
I dont remember bernard sumner from joy division using guitars with single coil pick ups
Absolutely no clue who you are but something told me to watch this and it was pretty cool. Not sure that I'll continue but at least I'm glad I saw this one.
With such a minimal signal chain I would make sure each pedal is capable of doing double time. A Rat2, or HM-2 could do both the distortion, and Muff tones. A multi mod pedal like the Oceans 11 can tackle any modulation. Add a Delay that has Reverb, and now with the Plumes, you have still have a 5th spot for something like an Octave, Looper, Wah...
how do I learn to play with the first 3 strings like this
To save time double tracking, there's a pedal called TC Electronic Mimiq. Worth its weight in gold 😊
Very cool sound. Looking forward to trying something like that. Cheers!
First Rat player that comes to mind for me is Nuno Bettencourt. He would have it on all the time.
So I gotta ask, fuzz into the reverb, or reverb into the fuzz? Personally I much prefer the latter.
Dadgad is cool but it is only cool if you love playing in d
Capos do exist

DS-1 all day long!
Sounds like you really need a Boss TU-3. lol

Random but is the grey guitar in your wall called the “Jimmy” from PureSalem Guitars by chance? I have a vintage white/yellow one that’s left handed. Such a great guitar.
I will get a bluesky one day
Excellent, thank you. I'm going to try this with my Midiverb4.
I like two transistor fuzz over four.

Indie!
Pan one left and one right and there you go... that, and, all the better if you build your own pedals and mod the ds1 for a little more mids and a little less fizz

No, grunge is in the soul not in the chords.
Another huge part of the Cure’s sound was the Fender Bass VI. It’s the cross between a guitar and bass. A 30” scale length that is tuned EADGBE, only an octave lower. It’s a fantastic instrument.
No comparison! I just bought a Rat which replaced the DS-1 on my pedal board!
