    Getting to see Tosin tomorrow for an Ibanez clinic here in the Philippines! Cannot wait! Such a overwhelming feeling that a guitar hero is coming all the way here. Can't wait till I may get to see you too, Keith! Both of you are such big inspirations for extended range playing for me :D

    Frankly I can't imagine Tosin's clean sound being anything but hard compressed.

    Man, I love watching Tosin just talk about guitar stuff.
    He's so well spoken and seems to really know and care a lot about what he says.
    Should teach university when he calls it quits on recording / touring.

    This video was pretty cool. I also just came here to see Tosin play and ended up really wanting this pedal. He had talked about using a compression pedal before but I didn't know what he used. I love how the guy adjusted the pedal while he played riffs from his album over and over again and you could very clearly hear the difference. Ever since I first heard Animals as Leaders I've wanted to try to bring some of that sound to my own playing, especially in the clean work. This pedal seems like it would be a good start.

    Wow, I can't believe I only just realized how Tosin completely broke the boundaries of guitar playing. He is constantly doing things that I didn't know were possible.
    Also I really want this compressor; I've been debating for months now which one to get and I've finally settled on this one.

    • @masterzparkour
      @masterzparkour 9 лет назад

      ***** the funny thing is that the hardware is different from his signature ibanez guitar. The bridge, tuners and pickguard. Maybe it was just for the purpose of this video.

    • @Bucketheadtwo
      @Bucketheadtwo 9 лет назад +1

      Pedro Iago That's because it's one of his older customized Ibanez Prestiges, not his signature model.

    • @masterzparkour
      @masterzparkour 9 лет назад

      Jacob Morgan I thought so. hahaha!
      I don't think he's going to change his DiMarzio Pups for SD pups.

    • @jmhadahorse
      @jmhadahorse 9 лет назад

      Jacob Morgan I like how the TAM100 is a completely new instrument and the affordable versions are based off of his other prestige models.

    • @flips220
      @flips220 9 лет назад +6

      ***** The guitar he's using in this video is an Ibanez LA Custom Shop RG8 with Seymour Duncan Nazgul/Sentient pickups. But, as for Tosin's actual sig, it still has Dimarzio Ionizers in it. That hasn't changed. I believe he's still affiliated with Dimarzio. However, because Keith Merrow works for Seymour Duncan, my guess is that he has an obligation to use SD pickups in his videos, and Tosin was just cool enough to oblige. That, and yeah, it's also a Duncan pedal, but again Keith works for SD.

  • @djguzzy10
    @djguzzy10 9 лет назад +16

    Fucking knew tosin was playing with some sd's!if keith keeps converting people from dimarzio to sd then I'll know he's the Messiah of tone! The next one keith should switch is John petrucci! Of he does that!....well the end of the world will occur! Lol

    • @TylerSocholotuik
      @TylerSocholotuik 9 лет назад

      djguzzy10 I think the reason people stick with the same brand for so long is because they know what they're going to get. To me, trying a new pickup is a huge gamble because I am spending money, and the time and effort of installing them. I have always played Duncans, and I probably always will simply because I already know that I like them.

    Doesn't all his effects come from his Axe Fx? I know for a fact that live, he doesn't use any sort of auxiliary pedals.

    • @AscentToZenith
      @AscentToZenith 9 лет назад +1

      atyourlasthourrr Maybe he does now. I'm pretty sure this pedal didn't even exist when he made the songs he played in this video.

    • @atyourlasthourrr
      @atyourlasthourrr 9 лет назад

      The Zerk I'm well aware of that. I've just heard him mention several times on several interviews and articles that for touring purposes, he likes to bring as little as he can for consistency. However, I'm sure that he's using all kinds of pedals in the studio.

    • @LINE4RR
      @LINE4RR 9 лет назад

      atyourlasthourrr He definitely uses just the Axe FX as of when I saw AAL last fall. The only pedals he had was the board designed for the Axe FX. Maybe he's going a bit more organic now, though? I dunno.

  • @charly88888888
    @charly88888888 9 лет назад

    I would always advise people to put a noise gate before compression. Because unfortunately compressors don't know the difference between notes and line noise/feedback.

  • @Calebm90
    @Calebm90 9 лет назад +3

    Love his playing, but I've always felt like his style would be so much better without so much compression...tiny intricacies in the way he expresses his work get lost in the mix when he slams the signal like he does. Adding that much compression to a modeller makes his tone so sterile...that sustain tho...

    • @shadow105720
      @shadow105720 3 года назад +1

      The mix between finger and pick playing really needs the compression to even out the sound. His finger style would be way quieter without it.

      slesperado What makes the difference is the skill you have to play guitar.

    • @slesperado
      @slesperado 9 лет назад

      ***** One of my guitars cancels all of the notes that are tapped on frets 15 and up, regardless of how much force is applied. A guitar makes a difference.

    • @1FISH
      @1FISH 9 лет назад

      slesperado You're both wrong. The key to a ripping tone is the tightness of the pants. You need that natural compression to add some balls to your sound.

  • @kilipeti
    @kilipeti 9 лет назад

    why aren't the nuts on the guitar?
    Nevertheless, this is mindblowing!

    • @shmimbadad
      @shmimbadad 9 лет назад

      kilipeti My guess would be that the tremolo is blocked, and the locking nuts removed so he can change tunings easily. I like to keep my trem floating and the nuts locked, but you can't change tuning on the fly like that. So every now and again, I'll take the locks off and block the trem, so I can go between standard, Eb, drop d, etc.

    • @kilipeti
      @kilipeti 9 лет назад

      Will Anderson That's not a floating trem in the first place, that's an EDGEIII fixed bridge, it is used with the double-locking nuts in order to keep tunings better, the need of which I'm not really convinced about...
      So then here's this video with his locking nuts off... :D Not great advertising imho.

    • @shmimbadad
      @shmimbadad 9 лет назад

      kilipeti Oh that's not a trem? Weird. Yeah, without a floating trem, locking nuts are totally pointless. Especially with decent locking tuners.
