  • How I Create Ed Sheeran Loops With The Boss Rc-505mk2. I go back and forth between the rc-505 and the rc-600. I find the 600 a little more conducive for live gigs while playing instruments. Any thoughts on my FS-6 technique?

    • @EmilyMcVicker
      @EmilyMcVicker  4 месяца назад

      Did I re-harmonize them? What chords do you use?

    • @400_billion_suns
      @400_billion_suns 4 месяца назад

      @@EmilyMcVicker Ha, well, I just listened to the original song to see if I was speaking out of my butt, which is always a possibility with me 😅 I play it on guitar, and when I’m not using a looper, I just use a basic Bm-Em-G-A progression (transposed to the original key with a capo) while singing on top. I haven’t looked at your hands to see exactly what you’re playing, but your chords have a bit more sophisticated spice to them vs. the way I play it.
      As for re-harmonizing, the original song doesn’t actually have any real chords in the verses, it just keeps repeating that marimba-ish-sounding riff, so I guess it’s a matter of opinion :)
      PS You’re a *far* better musician than I, and I have no business giving you any suggestions, but if you’re open to it: that marimba-ish opening/verse riff gets its unique sound because each hit is a dyad. To me, the specific pair of notes played with each hit is what makes the riff *so* catchy and infectious. If you were playing it in the key of Bm, the dyads are:
      B over F#; D over F#; B over F#
      B over G; D over G; B over G
      B over G; D over G; B over G
      C# over A; B over A; A over E
      (Transpose that to whichever key you like!)
      Please know I’m not critiquing your performance, it was awesome!!! Just thought you might like to give it a try with those dyads in the hook riff and see how you like it. :)

    It's really cool and inspiring seeing Ed Sheeran perform mostly solo concerts selling out stadiums. Proving anything is possible. Talent Is talent and that having a band is not the end all be all to play at bigger and better places entertaining large crowds.
    By the way I really love your looping skills and beautiful voice! Last video I saw of you was the Makie Showbox and really loved your rendition of Zombie. Keep it up🎵

    • @EmilyMcVicker

      Aww wow thanks friend! I agree. Having a solid solo show has been key for me to make it work with music. Which makes me a little sad tho because playing with other folks is so lovely when I get to do it. But not all budgets can support a full band. The looping has worked well for me 👍

      Do u use an Fs-6 with it? And what instruments are you playing?

  • @JohnDurso82
    @JohnDurso82 4 месяца назад +1

    Love these videos where you walk through building the loop, super helpful. Any reason you chose to use the RC 505 instead of the 600 for this? I'm mainly a guitar player but I do some keys too and I'm trying to decide which one to get. Thanks!

    • @EmilyMcVicker
      @EmilyMcVicker  4 месяца назад +1

      I have been trying to practice my 505 technique lately. Folks have been asking for more 505 videos. But the 600 is definitely my go to 👍 when you’re playing guitar at the same time, it’s hard to need hands for stuff. The 505 has some neat features that are more accessible w hands. But I am feeling comfortable on both these days

    Wow! I was seriously impressed with the video of this song that Headrush just released of Sheeran playing it on a looper. I didn't know he was a loop artist. I just knew the songs that clients have requested, which are all great. His performance was great (aside from the out of tune guitar, why did they keep that take?!?) But this arrangement is even better. The groove is so good... and you just laid down the parts one after another with no down time. So many questions, but mostly wanna know was that D# on top on purpose? Caught me by surprise and I loved it, but seemed like maybe a happy accident :)

    • @EmilyMcVicker
      @EmilyMcVicker  4 месяца назад +1

      Ha! You’re not the only one that mentioned his guitar tune to me lol. And ya! That D# was a happy accident that I didn’t notice til I was editing this 🤦‍♀️ but I didn’t hate it either so I kept this take 😊 thanks for checking out my stuff! I hope Headrush sends me one of Ed’s new loopers 🫶🤘😜

    To be honest, I like your version more then the original. But this is also probably because of Ed. I stopped listening to his songs since I joined his concert last year. I have never been a big fan of Ed but since this time I stopped listening him at all. It was the worst concert I've ever seen. After the last song he simply left the stage without an encore, without saying goodbye. I found that very unfriendly and without appreciacion towards his fans.
