Totally cool! All these years tying various pedals and not getting close, here you get the whole catalog. Too bad I'm playing old time music these days...
Some sounds can work for Old Timey as well! You can make totally clean patches with just reverb/delay if you wish. Plus all your Bluegrass/Old Time etc backing tracks can be in another app, and set list/lyrics in a third. Plus heaps more... It's all in there 👍
This is great stuff... I recently was gifted my wife's old iPad Air 2 (she got a new one) that has the headphone jack, and I haven't really used it... it was just sitting around (I use my computer, iPod Touch, and iPhone for most things)... Now I have a perfect use for it ! Hoping to get an iRig 2 soon... they seem to be hard to find at a reasonable price, and in demand. Can't wait to get started... Thank you Brendan !!
Glad you like the videos! Re. Imitone: I realised I had checked it out in the past. It is similar several other pitch-to-Midi software packages, which are available for PC or Mac: MidiMorphosis, Vochlea Dubler, Beatbars A2M Converter, Digital Ear etc. However, all these are not available on the iPad unfortunately. I've been looking into ways to connect my mic to Midi apps in the iPad, either through interface devices or directly.
Just got my iRig2... so it looks like I need the Amplitude CS app (show in the iRig2 quick guide) to unlock the iRig2 (after registering it, etc)... I tried the Tonebridge app first, and could not get any audio from the mic... after I downloaded the Amplitude app, the Tonebridge audio worked... now the fun starts !
Thank you so much for all your amazing contributions to the harp community! I really appreciated this video. I bought an irig2 and set it up yesterday. Can you give me some advice? I am an intermediate player but i can’t seem to get my harp to imitate the amp sounds. There is no difference regardless of what affect i select. ( The system works great for my guitar so the set up is correct). I am using a bullet mic into my vox mini 5 rhythm. I had it set up on exactly the amp affect you were using. Any advice is appreciated. On I-harp, Richard Hunter mentioned he could only find one delay and one reverb. Where can i find those? Also he mentioned finding a bassman amp modulator. Where can i find that? Also you mentioned and demoed an octavator. Where can i find that? Thanks so much for your time in responding to me and for sharing such a great innvovative approach with us!
This approach to tone seems more suited to studio applications. Imagine taking the stage as a harp player with an iPad. I would prefer to use actual pedals built for the rigors of the stage. Nice video though.
?? Are you serious? I do more than imagine using my iPad on stage: I do it - as do millions of musicians around the world. Harp players are just rather late to the party. As far as practicality goes, the iPad can be securely mounted on your mic stand at a height which is easy for quick hand adjustment - far more precise, fast and convenient than clumsy foot stomping on the floor, where dust and beer is prone to fall on pedals over time. You seem to be saying using an iPad for harp sounds is not right for the macho harp player image? That's a matter of opinion about what you find more interesting and attractive, I guess. Finally, it's not an either/or dichotomy: as I show in video #2, you can use both very easily. Just run your pedalboard into the iPad, for extra sounds when desired. Give it a try 🤗
@@BrendanPowerMusic I couldn't agree more with your opinion that harp players are slow to adapt. It's 2020, every other musician is having a blast going digital, and here most harp players are still trying to mix and match shit from 1940 to achieve a sound manually that patches copied a decade ago.
@@faethe000 Yes, harp players in general are a pretty reactionary lot LOL 🤗 Many seem to equate anything digital with being somehow evil or subversive. But they're missing out on a lot of great stuff if they persist with that attitude, which is a pity.
@@BrendanPowerMusic don't pay attention too much to this idiot, I'm pretty sure this is the same blues nazi who would tell you that playing with overbends or modified harps is against the blues.....Some old white guys will never accept changes and evolution
Great tutorial.. thanks from 🇨🇦
🤗👍

My pleasure 👍 Old iPads should never die, just be re-imagined as Music Machines!
Love this. Thank you sir.
👍🤗
Enjoying the videos ... Building my virtual board now ... Will be getting your pay video today ... Have you tried Imitone App ?

Yes, it's a bit of a learning curve with the iPad, but once you get the hang of it the possibilities are huge 👍
The THOR POLYSONIC SYNTH has been removed from the APP Store. Does anyone have the perfect replacement suggestion?
Love it！😎
Thanks Long! 👍
As far as utilizing this in a gig setting, any reason it wouldn't work well with my small Marble tube amp? Currently, it's my only amp.
It will work with any amp or PA.

I suggest checking RUclips videos of guitarists using and describing the app. Watch a few and I'm sure it will all become clear.

Hai sir love from kerala😆

Using an ipad setup on stage is actually really easy. If you absolutely need to use your feet instead, you can use midi footswitches with this setup.
