HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2024
- In this video I discuss and demonstrate ways to make your modeller (Fractal, Helix, Quad Cortex etc) feel better - a common complaint people have about these. These are things I’ve learnt from a lot of tweaking and improving. I hope you find them useful.

Invaluable advice. Cheers, Nick
Excellent advice!
Fantastic advice and some great playing, mate! I would add only this: if you can and have access, try preamp out of a valve amp into the interface. I tube preamp pedal - even a starved plate style does warm thing up and gives a bit of the natural compression and complex harmonic structure that we associate with electric guitar (maybe more as players than listeners). I am going to stand by this: the feel under the fingers and the feeling of being connected is tangibly there for me going that route.
Started with a Line 6 POD in the early 2000's. One thing that always stuck with me from their manual was to build patches just like you were using a real amp and pedals. Pick the amp and cab and get it dialed in. Then, add effects one at a time dialing in each one individually. That really helped me sort out existing patches by turning off everything but the amp and cab and edit from there.
Picked up a used tonemaster deluxe reverb recently for a good price, first leap into modelling and it sounds pretty good. No ability to tweak like the fractal/helix etc. but certainly helps the analysis paralysis, plug and go. The simplicity, XLR out, attenuation and weight were definitely the selling points.
Great video again! Thanks 👍🙂
Hey Nick.
Ya know, I think turning up the input dynamics a bit is great for someone like yourself who is a lot more advanced than me, but I had a bit of a play with it today, and I don't think my technique is good enough to use that live. I might make a couple of presets with it for practice though, because I have been trying to improve my dynamics!
Great vid Nick. I never use gates or compressors either 👌
For monitors try balanced armature, Etymotic have some with changeable cables, balanced armature has better definition. How is xotic bbpreamp 1.5 ?
Are you cold ?????? I give you jumper
