    Life too short for long RUclips videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
    In this episode we take a look at the not-so-humble tremolo effect with the help of five great pedals and two amps. Tremolo is one of the earliest guitar effects that first appeared in amps back in the 1950s. You can hear it on everything from early blues to rock’n’roll, country, rock, pop… pretty much all kinds of music come to think of it.
    We start off by explaining the fundamentals of tremolo then get into ways in which it can change your sound via the five pedals. We finish up with a quick listen to the in-built tremolo effects in the Fender Super Reverb and Hamstead Artist 20+RT amps. Enjoy…

    Tremolos make us better players: to keep our playing intelligible, we have to play longer notes and choose them carefully... Great show guys!

    One of the things I love about the show is how much you two seem to enjoy each other! Looks like you're truly having a stellar time making each episode! Can we get a compilation video of the expressions you each make when you get a kick out of something the other one plays?

    • @ThatPedalShow

      That Hamstead trem (both pedal and amp) is really fantastic. The Tremotron is also the coolest looking pedal around and it's sonic possibilities are intriguing!

    The more I experiment with tremolo, the earlier and earlier it ends up in my chain. I love the sound of tremolo into fuzz! Also a low depth, high speed tremolo into a chorus or flanger sounds very rich and complex.

  • @comicsrcool5483
    @comicsrcool5483 7 лет назад

    So awesome. I think its great you both leave in the bits where you completely crack up. It makes the videos less clinical and more like you're just hanging out with mates playing some great gear. I have been wanting a good tremolo pedal for awhile now. This video has just made it more pressing... Cheers and as always thanks for the great information.

    • @ThatPedalShow
      @ThatPedalShow  7 лет назад +2

      +Rob C Cheers Rob. Yep, Dan and I started doing this because all we talk about is guitars, amps and effects. So we said, 'Let's do this on RUclips and see if a few people like it. So far 83k people like it enough to subscribe and we have around 8 million minutes of video watched per month. It's slightly insane but we're glad you enjoy it! Thanks for watching. :9)

  • @brianrollins7275
    @brianrollins7275 2 года назад

    Another excellent episode. You guys are the best at what you do and I appreciate the insight. You bring a lot to the table for fellow guitarists seeking knowledge about gear (especially pedals). Thank you for doing this.
    I just recently picked up the MXR M305 Tremolo and it’s great. Sounds nice along side the MXR M300 Reverb. It’s all the tremolo I’ll ever need. This episode is what influenced me to purchase a tremolo pedal. I feel I made the right decision from what my ears are hearing. Never used trem before now and I’m really loving it.
    Thanks again for all you do.
    Take care

  • @siryba
    @siryba 7 лет назад +1

    The section of the show where you guys used the boost of the Fulltone pedal and the MXR overdrive, is a great example of the myriad number of hidden ways a player can discover a great sound and potentially make it their own. Magic stuff.

      Mike Gordon from Phish has a boxing bell on the floor next to his board to be used when the jams get hot. I think the Name Drop Horn could be rigged the same way.

    Another great vid. I always look forward to Fridays. Best channel on youtube for sure!
    Can I make a request?! I love that you show us your base clean tone, straight into the amps, at the start of each show, but could you perhaps try to show each amp individually and then together when you show us your clean sound? Even if it's just a few seconds! You've done it on some episodes and not on others, and I always find it fascinating to hear each amp, and then together... Not a biggie, but I always find it an interesting moment of the show!

  • @danpugatch
    @danpugatch 2 года назад +2

    Great video gents. I too do Tremolo before Reverb and everyone tells me to do after but to me it sounds less abrasive. My signal chain: Gretsch Hollowbody > Boss TR-2 Tremolo > Boss DD-3 Digital Delay set to Slapback > Boss RV-5 Digital Reverb set to Spring > Orange Crush amp on Clean Channel. 🤠🏄🎸

      Source Audio Vertigo! It's stereo and can handle line level effects loops after your delay ;) it does harmonic, bias, and normal trem and also has an app where you can do tons of custom stuff like leslie sim and presets, etc!

    • @bryankur
      @bryankur 7 лет назад +2

      Kevin agreed that Harmonic Trem is to die for!

    • @TriPedalReviews
      @TriPedalReviews 7 лет назад +4

      I'm in the middle of Trem shootouts atm. Flint, and SA Vertigo are
      included, along with many others. The grand scheme is to divide the
      shoot outs by type, Bias, Optical, and Harmonic trem. I've collected
      over 40 trems so far, so if you are interested and a tremolo nut, check
      out and stay tuned to my channel.
      So it was mentioned the Boss
      TR-2 offers sine wave, I don't believe that is correct. It is not
      pictured on the pedal, the triangle wave is pictured, and it morphs to
      square wave.
      Good show! Would love to see more on Tremolo.

    Dan and Mick........you guys ROCK. I discovered your channel about 2 months ago, and I cant stop watching. I started playing guitar about 6 years ago ( I'm 54) and pedals always mystified me. Before watching this show I had a Boss ME-70 could never seem to make my own sound, and I surely didn't understand what each effect "really" did. After watching you guys explain the what why and how, I really get it now. I sold the ME-70 and now have 17 individual effects pedals (and ain't done yet) and oh the tones I can make now. Exploring what I can do has transformed my playing.....and enjoying like I couldn't have imagined. I've moved up to my next level of playing. Thanks!! Oh yeah my amp is an Ibanez 2004 TSA15H which I just re-tubed with some vintage NOS pre amp and power tubes, into a 2X12 cab with Celestion Cream Backs, and now I feel like it comes close to your Hamstead! LOL Plus watching you two and seeing the "fun" you have is awesome!! I hope you keep doing this for a long time!! Cheers!!

    • @ThatPedalShow
      @ThatPedalShow  7 лет назад +1

      +Scott Johnson Thanks for that Scott - it's the best feedback we can possibly have to know that you're inspired to play more and happier with your sound to boot. Great to have you along and thank you for watching!

  • @andysolomon279
    @andysolomon279 7 лет назад

    Great episode, a lot of laughs and daftness to make us smile but also a ton of info as usual!
    Re - Type of effect, I always thought of tremolo as a gain based effect as opposed to a modulation based effect. Whilst the amplitude is being modulated, the result is a perception of level change of course which to me translates as a gain based effect...the same way an EQ is also a gain based effect/control.

    I love putting anything that boosts level in my effects loop(boosts, overdrives, distortion is out front of course) but eq, comp, preamp etc. They are so great in the loop cause they stay clean. It's my secret weapon for cleans and people always think my amp is just amazing (which it is in my opinion lol, its a marshall DSL100HR an I couldn't be happier with it) but I have my compression in the loop so I get more clean comp from it and it really makes cleans so incredible and clear and full. If the comp is up front it brakes up too quickly especially with higher output pups. And comp in the loop can also simulate tube sag which is great for when you can't really crank your amp but want that natural sag tone. I also use my eq in the loop to do some post preamp tweaking like you'd be able to do on some mesa boogies, and last but certainly not least I just built another diy kit a Zeppelin Design Labs Quaverato Harmonic Tremolo(I build pedals from scratch also on veroboard but the quality and cost of the Quaverato kit was so good that I could match it without spending at least twice as much, Pretty much all of their components tested to within 1% tolerances) . It's an incredibly versatile trem that sounds excellent but I also use it cause it has tons of gain on tap if you want it. It has a volume control on the front of the amp but it also has a variable resistor/trim pot inside that you can use to set the amount of gain with. That way you can get 12 o clock on the volume control to be perceived unity gain. It was such a fun build and I love using it just as a boost as much as a tremolo and harmonic tremolo. You also have internal trim pots to set the high and low frequency levels so you can make the pedal brighter or darker based on preference and if that wasn't enough you also have a dip switch internally for both the high and low signals that sit right after the optocouplers. With the dip switches you can set the high and low pass filters cut off frequencys. With frequencys further apart you get more phasing sounds in the harmonic mode an with the frequencys closer together you get more of the mids/high mids back into the signal. Like I said it's an incredibly versatile tremolo that sounds excellent. If your able to solder and follow directions you can build it yourself for $89 or a little over $100 if you choose to add the midi upgrade which I did even though I only use midi with my DAW lol. Check it out!

    Mick, you should really check the boost trick on the SupaTrem where you use the Soft/Hard switch to get Trem off/Trem on. Just set the Mix to zero and you have a great boost and/or a great tremolo.

    First comment in ages... but relevant because these videos are timeless! I bought myself a Strymon Flint so that I could free up some space on my pedal board (I took out two separate pedals and replaced them with just the one). The Flint is amazing, but damn, I wish the nobs on the front were dual-turn nobs. The volume boost is hidden away as a secondary feature, which requires you to push both pedals down at the same time, which is completely impractical when you need to adjust things quickly to suit a mix. Besides that, it's a wonderful tremolo with 3 tremolo options - harmonic band filtering, power tube bias, and photocell. Maaaan.... it's so good.

    I've got an EHX Super Pulsar and it is very cool. It has an amazing feature set, but my favorite thing about it is the envelope controls for depth and rate, based on the amplitude of the signal coming in. So the trem can be set to automatically slow down or speed up or go deeper or shallower as your notes decay (or as you adjust your volume knob). Very musical and awesome.

  • @jakestewartmusic
    @jakestewartmusic 7 лет назад +1

    Yes! Been waiting for this one! Thanks guys!
    Tremolo, particularly in an old Fender amp or on a Wurlitzer 200A, is my all-time favorite modulation effect. I crank my Carr Rambler amp to 10 with a touch of spring reverb for my sound and I love the sound of that amp's tube bias tremolo when the power section is cooking. It feels different than the tremolo being before or after the distortion, because the overdrive is happening from the power section which is modulating in bias (or something like that). Not sure about all the technical details around that, but it's such a lovely sound.

      I owe a lot to you guys in finding my own tonal nirvana. Funny that TPS has shown me that I prefer not having a board and running as few pedals as possible. I've been running a vintage Thomas Organ Crybaby, Chicago Iron Octavian Plus, and EP3 Echoplex into a cranked amp with reverb and tremolo. No board, all batteries. Works for me! Happy days!

    Great episode fellas... Comment on the Boss TR-2 - Years ago I was getting great sounds with it in the basement then wondered why it never 'worked' in gig scenarios... Apparent or actual, it disappeared in the mix and I stopped using it live. I then discovered Analogman, got it mod'ed and was blown away. It became a fave pedal and this naturally led to a dangerous GAS-path of KOT, BiComp, Chorus,... plus more recently, the Boss GE-7 mod which is also fantastic. TR-2 at end of chain, after delays & just before reverb is where it works best on my rig.
