- I show you a simple trick that you can use with any delay pedal to thicken your guitar tone. This is not your typical delay pedal tricks that most players use.

beautiful playing!
This also works really well on a distorted tone
This is something John Petrucci did in his live rig for a long time - very fast 6 or 7 ms stereo delay to thicken the sound and simulate somewhat the doubletracking that happens on the albums. Believe he's using a TC Mimiq pedal now for that same purpose.
I used to practice drums with a guitarist. One day I ran 2 mics from his cassette deck to my drums. I pressed record/pause, turned the volume up and began to play. This produced a split second delay on the speaker output, that doubled my drum sound. It was a fat, awesome sound and my drums never sounded better. It's amazing what a split second delay can do to your guitar, drums, vocals and practically anything.
And it was tape delay none the less
LOL !!! 'Literally' it WAS a 'tape delay' !!! Primitive but it worked !!!@@blindboyblake
I used to do the same thing decades ago when I practiced guitar. It was great!
Your tone is lovely
A few years ago, I got a Belle Epoch Deluxe. Used it with an Orange 35rt. Added life and dimension to an otherwise bland sounding amp.
Sounds great!
That's amazing!
It really is pretty amazing what it does to the tone. Steal it and use it :-) because I sure did not figure that out by myself.
Thank you.
Oh yeah, the old 50ms delay doubler. If you give it a couple of repeats and put it after an overdrive, then stick that in a line selector and then in another loop you put a big muff or any similar sounding fuzz and run those lines in parallel, you can get a real nasty punk band basement demo tape sound. It's my favorite signal chain at the moment.
Slap back echo, tasty tip. 🙂
It's not really slapback, as the delay is acting more like reverb
Didn’t know Mike Judge was a guitarist😅
"Coffee. Pie. Hello? You got that in there?"
Check out Killing Joke's Geordie Walker's guitar sound - he uses double tracking pedals in a similar manner.
I will check him out. Never heard of him.
Geordie was an amazing musician.
So sad he is now gone.
They used fx admirably, back when you just had a few basic types. Youth is now a Grammy winning producer!
@@GordonPaviliondamn! Wasn’t aware he’d passed. When was this? He really inspired me as a young guitarist in the early 80’s. What a shame. Such a brilliant powerful rhythm player. R.I.P.
Now can you show how to make a Leslie guitar amp out of using' a lawn mower battery' a DC to AC power converter' a wireless guitar system and a jump rope.
Nice Playing but I wish I could hear what you are saying. Could you please make a better recording so we can use your idea which is great!
Yeah, I’m going to have to see what I can do about that. I was just using my iPhones built-in microphone to record. However, I did not expect the amp to be as loud in the recording as it was. I’m still trying to get things sorted out Without a complicated set up!
How about a thank you. Show us how it’s done Albert.
I think this is called slapback delay. Personally I like it with the repeats volume up, makes it really pop.
Yeah, I guess you could call it a slap back delay. However, the repeated note is very much faster and a bit lower in volume then on a normal slap back delay.
@blindboyblake exactly its almost like a subtle sprinkle of reverb.
No slapback delay is very obviously delay. I play rockabilly and use slapback all the time - and it's a loud repeat that is pretty fast, but very audible as a repeated signal. This is more like using delay as a fast reverb.
No . The usual slap back is 100- 150 ms .
This guy is the Stevie Wonder of guitar!
Except that I can’t sing lol
@@blindboyblake Yeah, but you're both black guys.
Yep practically turn all th eknobs down (even past a 'room' sound)
Pretty much lol
In the fx loop?
No, since I was using a clean tone I just ran straight in to keep it simple
@@blindboyblake any backdraw to putting it in front of an dirty amp? Instead of the fx loop
@@MetalHippie83 it would probably sound strange if you ran it into the front of a dirty amp. This is because your repeats would be distorted. The best way to do this with a dirty amp would be to use the affects loop to keep your repeats clean. If you are working with a chain of pedals iit s always best to run your distortion after your delay.
This could have been a good video BUT…your camera angle made it nearly impossible to see the pedal settings…
Thank you for letting me know! This is the first time I have tried to capture any kind of pedal work lol. I will see if I can get a better angle next time.
Can barely hear a word youre saying.
Yeah I may need to go back to using my Lavalier microphone. The built-in microphones on the iPhones work great until you point them in a different direction other than forward lol.
Chill out.
I hear no difference
