That was soooo SICK, Andrew! The song is pure fun and you really showed off the full potential of Orbits stereo capabilities!! I'm so glad you found my work and took it to the moon!
@@versoinstrumentsis there an extended version? felt like the spacey section wants to go twice as long, then revisit the upbeat theme, or the spacey section could be I really good bridge to transition to something else prog song
If I remember right, the final course for his engineering degree in Germany involved completely redesigning something from scratch. It could be anything, and he played guitar and decided to redesign the guitar, and decided to do metal for the body, and while he was putting the design together, he put the pickups over the body where he thought they would go, and then realized that they stuck, and that's why the magnetic pickups are not permanently stuck to the body
Thanks for the wrapup! We don’t have to re design something from scratch, you just follow an idea and see where it gets you - but you’re right that pickup attachment just happened along the way! I started with a roof batten guitar just to show myself a body isn’t needed to make a good sounding guitar. That proofed, so I fooled around with textile materials for an ergonomic body and that led me to the sheetmetal shape ( wich almost looks like a textile we draped over a neck wich I liked a lot). The pickup attachment came as a byproduct of the sheetmetal and quickly became the main feature :) Sounds a bit random but sometimes things are just like that haha! And the development to the point of what you see here took me years (even after my degree in industrial design)
It was my favorite in the shootout. Which is funny because it’s a not-very-focused multi effect, and it was up against one that’s analog and one that’s from Universal Audio who have some of the best DSP in the world
@@andrewhuangSonic Boom idea: make a song using all of Andrew’s effects pedals at least once. Alternatively, pick like four or five at random and make a song using them together
you do that mister@@itspusherdon't you know, you do have a bit odd image in this film, you look like a bug, And I believe you could look quite normal or even a handsome music star with a bit of care applied, I reckon. And don't you know, you don't appear duchy like the other guy. If you're interested I'd have you in my cyber disco jazz acid blues punk rock band as a singer/guitarist. Le's get rich, take over the world and have fun doing it.
My favorite design philosophy is making something super specifically for yourself because when it has a wider appeal you get something special. This seems very much something designed for Andrew Huang but also something that is just a cool product that lots of people could use.
So much control in this sonic freedom. Andrew is getting more open-minded wig every day. Thank you a lot for your creativity and your creations. You are making this world better
Your message you put out Andrew is so awesome. Creativity, passion, possibilities, optimistic, just all around go vibes. The last couple of videos that have been released have this aura, and I can't get enough of it. Keep doing you man, clearly if you're having fun, the viewers have fun watching.
I was listening with one earbud in while cleaning around the house. Threw in the other when they started getting into the different pickup configurations. So glad I did. WHOA. 😮
my mind is blown. like I wasn’t totally sold on the value of moving the pickups at first, it felt more gimmicky than useful, but when you split high and low strings between left and right with different fx chains on each it was unbelievable. it feels like being able to record two completely separate guitar parts at once. and imagining the interplay in mixes with something like a more complicated lead melody trading off as if two people are playing, it’s just so creatively inspiring. (also the section at 18:30 reminds me a lot of Crumb, absolutely love it)
A) Love Pusher’s music! B) Love his high-five attempt. Guess the magic just wasn’t there. C) Love the guitar! Catching occasional views of the electronics from the bottom or sides is super fun.
I remember seeing this on Insta a few month back, and I thought it was the wildest guitar I’ve ever seen, time to save up for one cause this is so fun.
I understand the want to have vocals in each project (especially with First of October,) but sometimes instrumental parts are stand out, and really add something to the mix (or to an album.) The spacey groovy instrumental end to this was phenomenal! I was waiting for you to keep it simple and slow it down a bit, and you guys really delivered. Fantastic work!
Yooo the atmosphere and space on this song is insane! it really makes you feel like you're floating through a Synthwave in space and its freaking awesome! keep up the awesome work Andrew and Marty!!!
This could just be a full 20 minutes of riffs and dancing, no words, at some point Rob just shows up out of nowhere in the background in a funny hat, etc
Pusher's reactions and grooving is exactly how I was feeling lol. Very interesting guitar, especially with the split cable mod. Repositioning the pick up features is sic and innovative. Another banger song/video Andrew 🤘
Rob really needs to get his hands on this guitar, like the moving pickup stuff so reminds me of the way you guys used the submarine pickup on one of your 1sy of October videos
This definitely went. I feel like I was partying on boat with Parliament and got knocked into the ocean after someone spiked my drink. This is some good room music for everything. I'm so glad you're making stuff that doesn't need me to feel like I'm in need of saving a screaming baby every chorus.
11:21 The pickup control in stereo is really cool! I’d love to try this with MOOD MKII because the stereo field/panning is so good on its own and this would further enhance that effect!
I can't like this song enough. The way the sounds just flow and float together like swimming through space. This takes me back to the first time I ever heard the Daft Punk Discovery album. The vibes from this are just so funky and galactic. Thanks for always picking up and looking out for the sounds and music that just exist and are yet to be discovered.
I'm like half-way through the vid, just switched from speaker to earbuds and man that made a world of difference it sounds so damn cool this is so something I'd listen to in my free time it's very reminiscent of Mcbaise, one of my favorite bands
andrew, you constantly make me jealous of how many cool music opportunities you get! the song was super cool and watching you contruct a track from scratch was awesome too!
I love these 'fly on the wall' videos just taking us through your process. So fun! Always feel inspired to go create afterwards. That second section is so lush 🔥
Whenever I try one of the little tricks Andrew mentions in his videos I always end up coming up with the most beautiful little parts. Speaks to how good a musician he is that even his tiniest little piece of advice is enough to lift someone else's production or composition to new levels.
The drum line at 5:21 - 5:30 reminds of the drum line used by Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam, Full Force for their song "I Wonder If I Take You Home". It also reminds me of the drum line used for Gregory Abbott's "Shake You Down"
This was such a fun video to watch, what an incredibly cool guitar concept!! Love the movable pickups, new bucket list item for me. Also, fantastic song!! Loved its energy and the soundscape
16:35 Sounds like a blend of Flaming Lips and Stereolab. Or AIR. Then it drops into Jamie Lidell/STS9 territory. Great stuff! Btw I already got Transit before I watched this since I love anything with Andrew’s name on it. I get so many song starter ideas from your videos that it takes me forever to watch because I keep pausing and writing down ideas. You guys are awesome!
im a big metalhead and i mean i love all kinds of music but ye mostly metal. and it's really interesting seeing people both play but more importantly, create different genres than metal. the thought process behind this session is far from how i would create music but it sounds awesome and it's alot of fun
the panned stereo technique on that guitar sound reminds me as a pianist how you hear the lower notes on the left and the higher notes on the right side of the piano. Cool stuff!
Pusher seems like a great guy but it’s crazy seeing the musical chemistry between Andrew and Rob compared to with anyone else. Really found absolute gold when you two met 😅
i'm always down on myself for lacking the focus or motivation to work on my own music. so whenever i see an upload from you, i'm hesitant to click because i don't want to be reminded that i'm not where i want to be. but then when i DO click, i'm always left happy, motivated, and inspired. keep rockin man
This is sick! I'd love to hear the guitar with that stereo diagonal pickup setup you had going through some heavy distortion separately on the left and right, and then maybe a stereo reverb - I feel like you'd be able to create some massive double-tracked sounding tones!
I only started learning how to play guitar about a little over a month ago & I'm documenting my entire journey on here so watching this was super interesting to watch!
had to put my DT 990 pro on when Andrew said the guitar effect would sound nice with headphones and the effect of the guitar is insane, i love it so much xD
Thanks, but really with the Akai MPC Key 61 I can do exactly the same thing by connecting my guitar, applying effects to each mono/stereo channel, and I don't need any other external device or instrument.
Guitar part sounds a ton like Long Train Runnin' by The Doobie Brothers. I heard Andrew play and I immediately knew I had heard a song like it, but it took me hours to find it!
Wow!😮 I just instantly grasped a ton of “basic” info on the mechanics of an electric guitar, pickups as well as polarity and the ways they work, as well as a couple cool ideas this company could implement! Like a “magnetic whammy bar” or ping pong type delays and add ons etc…!? I definitely can see some really cool benefits to a adding a guitar like this to my collection!

@@jamesoniris2647Maybe with a tongue in cheek band name... Something like.... 1st of October.
It sounds like George Duke

When I tried to do the hi-5 it didn't make a sound 😠
Try harder next time
I'll try overthinking it first, then I'll try underthinking it if that doesn't work
That was so funny. The multi-hi-5 tests and sad reaction was on point.

A) Love Pusher’s music! B) Love his high-five attempt. Guess the magic just wasn’t there. C) Love the guitar! Catching occasional views of the electronics from the bottom or sides is super fun.
Maybe if I click my crocs together I can find some magic
Marty jamming to the track the entire time Andrew records is most definitely a vibe lol.
It's more fun to have fun than to not have fun
this song absolutely needs a streaming service release omgomgomg
I probably should eh? Would want to develop it more though I think!

Well not exactly.. An ebow vibrates the string fir you

Absolutely amazing! Im blown away both by the amazing effect of this stereo guitar and the track you wrote. You nailed the vibe SO HARD.
So good!
Rob really needs to get his hands on this guitar, like the moving pickup stuff so reminds me of the way you guys used the submarine pickup on one of your 1sy of October videos

Dancing is tight

Very cool to see this guitar in the wild. I’ve been following these mad lads on IG for a while. Good stuff!
