@@taylor8116they pitch shift lower. Their actual tuning is drop e if I remember correctly maybe double drop e . From the tech talking about it on a Jackson guitars rig rundown but they definitely pitch shift a lot of their songs
Yeah lol, I nearly posted in the description to begin with that you can play with drop A or standard, itll just sound a different pitch but would still be a vibe to play
This is gonna sound awkward to explain, but bear with me. In pretty much all Sleep Token songs, the bass is tuned to the same octave as the guitar, but in standard instead of drop, and sometimes with a 5th string added a fourth below the 4th, if that makes sense. For example, i believe that Alkaline is tuned as follows: Guitar: D#1 A#1 D#2 G#2 C#3 F#3 A#3 D#4 Bass: A#0 D#1 G#1 C#2 F#2 Then, for Rain: Guitar: A0 E1 A1 D2 G2 C3 E3 A3 Bass: E0 A0 D1 G1 C2 E0 is ~20hz, the lowest limit of human hearing, but I don't think an E0 string on the bass is used for this song. So yeah, same octave, and you can follow this wacky crap if you want to be authentic. Different strokes for different folks.
I can maybe do an ending vid too if you think it'd be useful, I just skipped in this vid cos of the intermission. Pretty sure I tabbed it out and it was maybe just the same as the second half of whats in this video, might be wrong but I think there are no differences
Only person I’ve seen play it in the right tuning, good job man, double drop A is crazy.
Thanks dude! Double drop A is crazy for sure, but crazy good 🔥
I'm sorry but you have no proof that ST uses this tuning. All we know is the lowest note is A0 in this song.
They play as low as Double Drop g#

Double drop A is lower than Drop E, I'm not sure what you mean here?
"Thought I'd pop a suggestion down here! October ends..
DARK"
No way the song is in Double drop A lmao,im just gonna play it in normal drop a,sounds amazing tho 🙌
I came to the comments to literally say this lmao.

You don't hear the A0 ?
@@didtoknan8128 at first i knew it was a lower tuning,but at the time i just assume that it was like double drop D o F
after examining multiple live performances, I can confidently say the tuning is the normal ST tuning (EAEADGBE) tuned down to drop A (ADADGCEA)
Awesome!! 🤘🤘
Yeaaaah!
Good job!!🎸🎸
yup i deffo need an 8-string XD
Yeah dude do it! Or at least a pitch shifter and thicc strings
nice cover, which Ibanez is that? I'm kinda in love...
Thanks! It's the Ibanez RGIR38FE (It's the non-whammy one)
This is dope. What are you using to pitch shift and what amp sim you using (if you are using an amp sim!) to get such a clean tone on that low low A?
Thanks! For the shifting I am using (I think) the mono wham on the Helix, and amps/tone wise, a bunch of stuff from STL Tonehub!
bruh that tuning lmao. I guess If I play it on bass its the same octave as the guitar? Else it would be 12hz lmao
It's actually 13.75hz, which makes it fair game in my opinion (jkjk yeah I guess play the same range as guitar lol)

What about the ending?

What is the gauge of your strings ? Especelly the lower one ?
Lowest one is 80
Did you use any pitch shifters?
I do, guitar is only tuned to double drop D, so down 5 for A
The timing of this song frustrates me
It’s perfect.
