At the point where I introduce the direct signal sound I just realized no-one will hear it correctly because the audio inputs Cooper was using were all taken up for the stereo left and right plus the lav mics for vocals. So I'll have do another video to properly demonstrate the blending of the clean sound.
Incredible. You and Frank are both incredibly gifted musicians! Was happy to subscribe! Amazing! Thanks again!!!
Hi Dweezil, we still hear what you're talking about, and yes your dad got the genius idea to keep the straight sound that makes the attacks are still heard even a big effect is hearable behind them, enveloping the straight sound, he was not alone to do it but extended the practice full scale, and you more again due to the availability of powerfull equipement like Fractals.
@@sound-ur1bqThis is a great example of actually taking an incredibly powerful piece of gear like the Fractal and pushing its limits.
I had a roommate that was a bedroom noodler who was convinced he needed an AxeFX to write his magnum opus.
He spent years just messing with the same riff through different patches 😂
Glorious tones, oh my.
This is a man who doesn't spend too long looking at vintage Fender Bassman prices on Reverb.
Frank would love all this stuff.
Found this vid while wearing my first tour ZPZ shirt from 2006. Thanks for sharing your journey Dweezil!! Grateful for your playing and equanimity...
I really dig when you play Zoot Allures through the Fractal rig. It sounds amazing. Thanks man, we just love this stuff. Don't stop .
Fractal frat house fridge ⚡️🎸🔥
FTW
Such a cool circus of sound. I really love the innovation.
Thanks!
As a lifetime fan of your dad, I think it's incredible that you get close to your dads feel and tone, it's so impressive. Your dad lives through you and that is really special to me, as we will never see his like again. You are awesome dude!
Thanks so much!
Thank you for bringing us some videos and stories Dweezil ! Greetings from Quebec !
Vote Dweezil for President of the Galaxy 20024 👿👹👾💢💥👽
Few people are pushing technology and sound as far ahead as Dweezil is, and what's fascinating is that he's applying it to music that is decades old to try and interpret what is nearly impossible to recreate. The fact that the original tones were done so long ago by someone so forward thinking and spontaneous is incredible.
It's like a modern nuclear physicist taking modern knowledge and technology and applying it to the early nuclear experiments of the 1940s, making new discoveries and a more complete understanding from the fundamental building blocks of the science.
I have the little brother of the Axe-Fx III Mark II, the FM9, and you can play “normal” sounds with it as well. 😊
Ha, thanks!
@@thedweezilzappa You´re welcome. What fascinates me almost more about my FM9, than the incredible sounds, is the crazy attention to details of the software experts at Fractal Audio. I think that the 2026 update will even take into account the constellation of Jupiter's moons in relation to the tube types in the amp-simulations. 🤣
Fantastic sounds! A true Zappa heritage!
Fantastic sounds all around. Layers! Effected mixed with pure tone = big revelation. Especially tasty at 15:14 > 15:27: Hearing modulation subtleties / spirit of Diver Down / 1984 EVH alive and well! Then followed by that luminous "Carolina Hard Core Ecstasy" Cmaj7th tape flanger sound. So cool.
Saw Dweezil in August, Reno, great show!
Let me talk about you, like you're not here,thanks Dweezil!
Outstanding, you Sir are a guru of advanced tone.
Deeelicious flange-wah! Oh, to know the signal chain of shut up and play your guitar, or treacherous cretins, or that cheeky little intro to drowning witch. Maybe one day, all these goodies could be revealed, perhaps as a delightful accompaniment to the wonderful “Zappa gear“ book. Still, in the meantime, it’s videos like these that give me hope I might one day understand such sonic mysteries. thank you Dweezil for keeping this musical flame, burning bright!
Awsome. It’s rare that a talented musician like FZ has a son that can keep his dads flowing in an incredible manner! Thanks!!!
Thank you!
Hey Dweezil, you're really great at explaining gear!
Thanks, I might do some video tutorial stuff soon.
You the man Dweezil ! 🎸
Yip,and you have your own intoneations,terrific.
Dweezil , I think you would have love making synt /keyboard sounds . Tinkering /soundscaping with synthesizers/native Instruments is just endless / infinite .
Nice you got that green Foxrox TZF2! Sadly missed out on those, because I thought he'd never make one again.
This is incredibly inspiring-thank you! 🎨
amazing sounds man. holy shit. i'd love to see the signal path going on. .. so bad ass.
Hey. some guy is making off with the Les Paul! 16:54
Frank would be proud, I know I would be
Maestro del tono!
Dweezil is a monster guitar player!, could do one heck of metal record !
Maybe one day...
its cool to see someone like Dweezil using FR cabs. Ive been torn between building a rig around my fm3 using fr or power amps and cabs. I kinda dont want to use guitar cabs because it seems to defeat the purpose of having all the great sounding cab simulation in the fm3 just to turn it off, but on the other hand Ive read some bad stuff about fr as well. Seeing Dweezil using fr kinda renews its viability for me in my setting
I've always preferred using the FR set up. It is great for live and in the studio. Way more flexible.
How are the guitars panned in the FOH mix? Do you cheat L and R towards center? If so, how much?
My FOH mostly leaves the panning set forth in the presets. He may adjust panning from FOH if need be but usually it stays wide.
Frank looks down and says..... its good what you do munchkin! 😊
Dweezil, you are the God Father of the Fractal rig world that sounded absolutely amazing. How are you triggering the pedals in them drawers from the pedalboard? Through the FM12?
I still have my Wiggy head - that should definitely be in the rig! 😁
I need to make some videos showing what it does!
@@thedweezilzappa yes! it's a unique bit of kit, I think people will dig it 👍
Sounds cool.
Dweezil. Please come back to the Uk 🇬🇧
*_Digital has come a long way!_*
"Willie The Pimp" is Sick!!! 👍😎
This is a whole lotta Guitarded Nerd stuff. 🤘🏼
Soooo cool , love it! What cabinets are you using Dweezil?
QSC K12
Awesome 💥💥💥💥
Good evening Frank was interested in the fractal world, ho an application for dweezil's material. which became the famous blue box that we knew on stage in 1978/84…
12:00 Cool !!
Great sound for Camarilo Brillow.
I wish we could have heard the famous guitar+violin patch! Can’t find any videos online of it:(
Will you ever made a demo of what your father called "the blue box"? It's was a kind of 'slicer'+ 'octaver+phase shifting'...Take care!
ps used maybe used in the 'Shut up and play your guitar' solos series. Can't remember the title...
Dweezil rocks
Dweezil please Come back to Denmark or the Zappanale festival in northern Germany
Like a harmony/ ring modulator in stereo? That’s interesting 😮.If you had two wah wah pedals on the same channel not in stereo they might cancel each other out so the stereo is important. But I might have that wrong….That riff reminds me of VH riff of Cabo Wabo actually…Is that Dad’s SG there running through the rig ? (Paul)
Still want that violin cello patch
Bello/Magnifico.🙏✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️👑
the efx are wide and sparkle , mean while very clear~~~ very different from traditional serial signal .
Total tone geekery
🙂
Can you tell the fractal guys to allow feedback loops inside the axefx?
You have the "Send" and "Return" blocks on Axe-Fx III, FM9, FM3, Axe-Fx II at disposal. Or are you referring to the FX8?
@16:51 someone just stole the SUAPYG Les Paul !
Yes MrHiggans

Roland EV-5 (cheap) expression pedal, good enough for him then good enough for me !
They work and they keep the weight down.
I witnessed your Fractal take a dump and stop your show on the Hendrix Experience, so...
Any rig can have a problem. I have had less problems with Fractals than other rigs.
Horrible noise mate
Dweezil's playing is amazing, even otherworldly almost with some of the stuff he can do, but this sounds like my first zoom effects pedal from decades and decades ago in the early nineties...its artificial, the distortion is so bad and its borderline terrible sounding, it doesn't matter the stereo imaging, who cares when the sound is this bad, literally dozens of tube amps and effects combinations sound superior live, maybe for recording its a thing, ease of transportation, the whole it won't break on tour kind of thing, I've heard those arguments, artists have been touring with tube amps since they were invented, I did it for 30 years. Everyone likes what they like but a great player through this? meh 😑
I've played through all of the real classic tube amps in the studio and onstage. They can be fun for sure but I don't find myself missing anything in terms of tone or feel with my Fractal rig. In my case, I have been happier with the Fractal for the huge flexibility it affords me per pre-set. I have to cover a huge amount of sounds and consider the arrangement and frequency range of each song. In that regard, the Fractal is more like a mini studio setup than a guitar rig. It can be very precise.
You can certainly have a preference for what you want to hear in a guitar tone and you can use tubes all day, invariably somebody out there will still say they don't like your tone and tell you to use a different amp and 3 tube screamers etc, so at the end of the day, nothing matters. The Fractal is a fantastic tool that can be used in many different ways and that's exactly what I do with it.
