Bigger Tone For Aynsley Lister With Delay & Wet/Dry - Mick’s Vlog
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2024
- British blues artist Aynsley Lister pops in to see if Mick can make his sound a little bigger.
Life too short for long RUclips videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
Welcome to the show! Back in October 2020, British blues artist and our good friend Aynsley Lister dropped into Schwangri-La to get some tone help. Now if you’ve ever heard heard Ayns play live, you know he really doesn’t need any help! Yet as he explains in the video, a whole two-hour show of just guitar and amp can sometimes call for a little more variety. Thusly, Ayns is wondering if the addition of a little delay might help him achieve a wider, more varied soundstage for parts of the set.
We work through some basic delay textures before introducing him to wet/dry and a little harmonic tremolo.
As I explain in the intro, do excuse the format of this. It’s a little bit rough around the edges and fly-on-the-wall in nature, but we think it’s nonetheless interesting!

I'd like to see this as a new series like "TPS Interven-tone" (no pun intended 😛). A place where one can freely share their actual tone frustrations and obtain top notch guidance by Mick and Dan.
That pun was fully intended
Second this emotion!
This is a great idea for a future series on this channel.
InTONEvention ? Sorry
This is like watching 2021 Mick teach 2017 Mick about complicated delays. Really enjoyed this vlog
Hahahaha!!!!
Mick, your such an incredible interviewer. Sympathetic, intelligent and asking really insightful questions. It’s a pleasure to watch these style of videos, thank you
Ah man. Thanks!
Word!
Absolutely agreed!
For sure. He wants to figure out how to help Aynsley find the best version of _his_ sound.
So true!
Love this style TPS- would love to see more of these “pedalboard fittings”. Very cool to tailor the sounds to the player, and Mick has such a tuned ear to the player and how their playing... If Dan were here he’d say it was “fascinating...”
and far out!
Mick “the tailor” Taylor
Ah Aynsley! Such a killer player.
I needed this today. I really really feel like I'm at breaking point, and everything in my life is going wrong, and the only thing that is centring me, is guitar. Aynsley seems like a stand up bloke.
Thanks, TPS.
Ah man, sorry to hear that. We know how you feel. Even our most stoically okay friends are fraying around the edges in this second UK lockdown.
You need to stop. Stop.
Every time you start worrying about what’s in the future or the past, stop. Stop.
Bring it back to this moment. Breathe, concentrate fully on something that is NOW. Every time you wander off to the future or the past, have a little chuckle at that mischievous part of your mind that wants to take you there.
Look at it. Look at the little bastard! All it wants to do is upset you. Tell it to do one and bring it back to this moment.
If something bad is happening at this moment, you need to - as much as you possible can - reduce that thing to a situation that you need to deal with, and tell the part of your mind that’s making it into a psychological problem to get lost. It’s a situation you have to deal with. Nothing more.
If nothing bad is happening at this immediate moment, it’s not a problem now. Park it.
That’s what I do. I hope it works for you. It mostly works for me. Good luck!
@@ThatPedalShow You're a good soul Mick
@@ThatPedalShow Thanks (presumably) Mick. Normally I manage to deal with these things through consistent therapy, however due to COVID, that's currently lost. I suppose it's a reminder of how far along I actually am in my journey of mental health.
You're absolutely right, I need to learn to park it. But I shouldn't be too harsh on myself, I'm only 25 and the journey is just beginning. A quote that my best friend repeats often: "All it takes is time, but time is all it takes."
@@Airfire21 Definitely don't be too harsh to yourself, quite the reverse; be kind to yourself! Simply being a conscious being is taxing. Not to be glib or philosophical about it of course. It just is! Some of the best music and art in general comes from that simple fact. But be kind to yourself, and keep engaging with music/guitar especially if you find it helpful.
I had an extremely rough time back in 2009 after the last financial crisis, my wife and I had both lost work and we had a baby that same year, but we worked hard to get back on track, I took a few jobs as did she that were part time, low pay, eventually I was able to go back to school and came out and got a nice job which I have been at seven years now. Shortly after the new job our marriage dissolved and I had a few more years of pain and discomfort, but fortunately I was able to keep playing music with friends throughout and thus kept my sanity somewhat on the rails. Now I am a few months away from being able to buy a house with a full basement to rehearse and record music in and I am just super grateful that I stuck it out. I can’t imagine how hard this time is for young people down on their luck and in isolation, but I can tell you that if you stick it out and keep working towards your goals you will eventually make them happen and it will have all been worthwhile.
When I started watching this channel religiously years ago, I never thought I'd see the day when a guy would say "All those knobs and options and menus...its just too much" and MICK would be the one to say "It's okay, mate, I'll teach you!", how proud is Dan right now? How far you've come! Thanks for taking us all with you.
The student has become the master. He may now leave the Shaolin Temple.
The Hugh Grant of guitar players. Been a fan of his for quite a while.
Spot on! 🤣
A friend took me to see him at a club in London a few years back and loved the show. Bought one of his albums when I got home and it doesn’t do him justice.
Oh man, what you’ve done here Mick is confirm how much of a guitar geek the majority of us are. To think someone who’s spent 20 years on tour didn’t know this almost reaffirms the fact that I spend too much time with gear and not enough time playing.
Took the words from my shamed mouth.
One of the best TPS episodes I've seen for a long time. This 'real world' application of pedals & techniques to assist players' specific needs should be done more often. Excellent job Mick!
Thanks Graeme!
Been so excited for another blog from Mick! Great way to kick off a day full of tone!
Mick this was one of the best videos to date! Loved this and would love to see more like it. Thanks
This video format is amazingly great. Thx.
Immensely satisfying. It's great fun seeing the lights come on for someone! Thanks, Mick!
Gosh that was wonderful. Thank you. Ainsley’s playing was fantastic too. Well done!
Really nice seeing you share your knowledge in expounding an already great tone.
a perfect demonstration of the benefit of the wet/dry rig ! and gorgeous plying !
Loved this!!!! Aynsley's face when he started playing into the wet-dry was brilliant. Awesome sounds!
this was great, love these views into gigging musician's rigs and mindsets. this is golden content.
So much fun watching AL’s truly joyful discoveries under Mick’s very skillful guidance.
That was SO good. I've loved Aynsley for years, seeing the joy of something new in an accomplished players face is priceless. Great vid, thanks Mick & Aynsley
I always love a Mick vlog and I really enjoyed this one!
Tones are awesome and Ainsley's a great player. Win win!!
lovley way to spend an hour,,,entertaining and such lovely playing and now i've also discovered ainsley,,,time well spent and loved the format too ,,,cheers from australia
Awesome work from the pair of you - amazing sounds! :) Very inspiring stuff and I'm excited to get back out there and hear great players like Aynsley do their thing when the gigs are back on..
Loved that .. great playing and sounds ... Really discernable the differences, and wow.. how good that wet dry thing is.. good pace to the film helped my understanding ... Thanks Mick!
Thanks for another fantastic video. Great to hear some new dimensions to Aynsley's playing - his connection with the Echorec was immediately clear. Very excited to hear Anysley incorporate the sounds into his live rig. Awesome.
It was so inspiring listening to you guys go through those tones. I had to stop the video three or four times and play out of pure inspiration. Thank you for putting up this video. More videos like this would be really cool. However I know how hard it is right now with lockdowns and Covid and what not. Good luck keep up the great work.
Fantastic show. Thanks.
15 minutes in, I like this style of video. It shows how others discovers new sounds, how cool! And it brings some joy to the day :)
Mick the tone tailor. Fantastic video as always, and a truly refreshing format
What a fabulous show, I’d love to see more shows like this because it really highlights loads of things that don’t necessarily show up when TPS demonstrate them. Oh, and what a top bloke....
What a lovely journey to watch👍
There it is. That smile that comes when something amazing happens and the joy of sound takes over. Great stuff Mick. Second reason I love you guys is finding new artists to search. Have downloaded entire Biffy catalog and now need to search Aynsley. Thanks!
Fantastic show Mick. Great to see (and hear obvs!) Aynsley, and really great to see his journey over the course of the day. As other people have said, this is a brilliant format, it lends itself not just the tech/geek pedal elements, but also it lets you get a really natural interview as he's relaxed and playing. Well done all round!!!
Great Episode, like every week! Great Tone
That was a really great down to earth working guitar player video. Thanks Mick
This guy is so genuine and passionate, I love him!
Sounds awesome great playing, love the ambiance!
Excellent video, need more like this! I learned a lot by watching the trial and error testing , and it made a lot of sense. Thanks for doing this video.
Now THIS was fantastic! I'd love to see more of this type of tone help, "critique my rig," problem solving, real world experiment videos. Great, great stuff, TPS!
An awesome real life demonstration of how to use and investigate growing your sound. to compliment your playing. A great new window to making a vlog. From hard times comes brilliance. Well done in your vision to present this. Thanks
What an awesome video! Loved the relaxed format. Also harmonic trem sounds so much better in Eb! Ha :) Thanks Mick!
One of the best videos this channel has ever put out! Mick I saw you and Aynsley play together at the guitar show in Birmingham in 2020, loved your version of Purple Rain. We had a chat afterwards about how TPS has opened my eyes to modulation pedals and persuaded me to lean in to that sound more. Love the show, massively thankful for all of the insight not just into playing but also the mental health journey that playing guitar can be sometimes! Looking forward to VCQ's later today!
Interesting and fun episode! Like how it's informative but it's naturally progressive and very applied to real life. Not just playing around with cool stuff but coming from real need. The filming and editing worked very well in keeping the episode coherent. Also always nice to see people's genuine reactions to learning the stuff that Mick & Dan already know from all the episodes, and how it opens new worlds of expression to them. The struggles and revelations.
What a sound! Aynsley was one of the first gigs my dad ever dragged me to... I still remember it so well!
Loved this format!! Gave me comfort that I wasn't the only one who was afraid of pedals (I played in my band for years with one amp and used my tele's volume control for a clean tone). As a person who only started on the pedal journey after I found your show, I want to say thank you to you guys for opening my eyes to the possibilities. I hadn't played for years and now I'm building my first proper pedal board. Keep up the great work.
Pleasure to watch and learn. Done masterfully.
One of the best episodes ever. Incredible guitar playing and creating up the sound that will work for him is really what all these pedals are supposed to be about, So watching it in real time was a mirror of what a lot of us go through each day. Excellent video
By far one of my favorite episodes. Loved the look of tonal love on his face. It reminded of the first time I played a proper pedalboard into a wet / dry rig. Excellent playing and lovely looking strat.
I 've seen Aynsley a couple of times at Mühle Hunziken in Switzerland. I think he was one of the many shows that were cancelled in the last months. But I will be there, when he returns after this crazy times. Blues is more relevant than ever. And I want to here these tones in a live environment... Great vlog Mick.
I love TPS and watch every episode...but THIS episode is absolutely incredible!! What a cool concept and Ansley is such a tasteful player!! Please do more episodes like this!! Great job guys!!
So cool to see the tone evolve with the wet/dry set-up...Uber inspiring stuff as always!
Great show. Shows the real experience of the player. Truely a new world of options for Aynsley., and he seemed to get inspired.
He has a great sounds without the wet/dry. Even better with it.
Awesome episode! Would love to see you guys catch up again. Thanks!!!
Great vlog, Mick. Aynsley is such a good player and had such great tone already. Seeing his face light up at the sounds he made was a joy to watch. Wet dry is a force that can not be denied. You guys are Yodas of tone.
Wow. Great to get to know Ainsley, I've been watching some performances of him and it's just so good! Great vlog also, Ainsley with his pure musician mindset not wanting to have the effects on the way of his sound, shows us what is really important without having to explain it at all. Loved it, this is what gear should be all about, about the music and the way it feels! And great guidance from the gear knowledge point of view from you Mick, with the right approach, getting the sounds to find the player and not the other way around.
That was fantastic! Great job to Mick in setting that up and to Aynsley for making the change.
@Mick this was great! I have been listening to Aynsley and enjoying his playing and it is very cool to watch him learning like all of us. @Aynsley thanks for allowing Mick to share!
What a beautifully expressive player!! And nice to see him enjoying the fruits of delay, trem and wet dry!! Mega amps for it 💪
Loved that, thank you Mick and Aynsley!
One of the best vlogs ever. So much captured of the experience. Great stuff.
Thanks Tony!
Brilliant. Really useful. Look forward to hearing Aynsley live with wet/dry rig in the future.
Loved that Mick, thanks for posting, and thanks too to Aynsley for letting us watch & listen to his amazing playing.
Thanks Mick! This was a great video to explore/explain wet/dry. You guys have put out several videos on this topic over the years, but this one is the simplest, most complete, and condensed all at the same time.
I needed this last weekend when I set up my first wet/dry rig. I got to this conclusion eventually, but having this video first would’ve served as a TPS Cliff Notes version.
Cheers!
Great video Mick. Really enjoyed it. Ainsley plays like an angel as well.
What a lovely guitarist...
It's always fascinating, learning something new and it seems he liked it!
Whether in video or in person, Mick and Dan seem to inspire other people, well done guys!
From the first few notes Aynsley knocked me out. He has excellent touch and the use of the volume pot is brilliant! I got a lot out this episode. Many thanks to both of you.
I LOVE Aynsley! Amazing to see him on the show. I found him during the first lockdown on Apple music, his music made me want to pick up my guitar and play. That's the sign of a great player making great music
Two nice guys (truly) having a nice, quality conversation about guitar tones....wonderful. Thanks so much for posting.
Aynsley has an ear that can make out any nuances in the signal chain, have learnt so much from him over the last 7 years. Love this
What a great video. Love Ansley's playing and tone - a fantastic player. Hats off to him for going on camera clearly right out of his comfort zone re pedals. Refreshing to see a player of his standard saying 'I just don't know'. And good on you, Mick, for being such a good teacher and guide. Very patient and tuned into what was and wasn't working for Aynsley.
That was BRILLIANT. Seeing all these top players over the last few years visiting Mick and Dan, and having their minds blown by the TPS wet/dry method, is a joy to watch and listen to. I’ve done it as well and, as Mick said, it’s quite hard to go back to one amp once you’ve heard it, if you have the gear to do it. Even at home volumes it sounds epic and, most importantly, it’s very inspiring and makes you want to play and write music. Well done Mick. And thank you for putting that video out during tough times in the U.K.
Perhaps my favorite episode of all TPS videos. Awesome and humble guitarist and great sound scaper Mick. Thank you gents
Would definitely love to see more videos in this format. Watching someone genuinely learning about the effects/setup is a nice change from watching two guys who already know plenty. I think some of the best moments from TPS is when one of the guys is genuinely learning something from the other. Seeing people from different genres, styles and preferences come to Mick and/or Dan for a tonal makeover sounds like a great thread to follow. Hope to see more of the concept, and a follow up from Aynsley sometime.
This was a fantastic vlog! It’s fun it’s see a great player discovering new sounds that inspire even more creative playing. And Mick your expertise and consultation is fabulous - one of my favourite episodes!
Thanks Theo!
Really enjoyed that one. Wonderful. 👍👍
In the wise words of Mr Taylor, that was bloomin excellent! What a great player, flawless noodling! He got himself a new fan today!
Love the humility of Aynsley and the honesty he shows here. Not afraid to say what he doesn't know. Great player!!
Such an amazing player! Well done Mick!
I love all of your videos. This one might be my favorite (again, with respect to all the work done by everyone involved with this channel). The ability to watch in real time as a tone is shaped is really helpful. I am 26 mins into this video and had to stop because of the insight gained about the way volume impacts delay. Apologies if I was supposed to know this by now, but I didn't. Thank you on so many levels for this - and all the videos you all create!!
Not at all Nathan! That’s exactly why I let it run like this. We have said all this stuff many times on the channel but that doesn’t mean it’s in the right context to hit home with everybody. We’re also acutely aware that a huge amount of what we talk about on TPS goes waaaaay over most peoples’ heads. It did mine when we first started doing it. So we’re all too happy to keep finding different ways that will help things click with people.... most important of all, in the way that it’s going to work for their particular situation. And we’re still learning too - it’s all a journey. Thanks for being here!
without a doubt TPS is the best channel for guitarists on RUclips.Really enjoyed this video , loved the tones you were getting from that awesome rig. I saw Ansley Lister for the first time live at the International Guitar festival, that was a great gig.
Artfully produced!! Aces man . Thanks and carry on … 😎
That was awesome. Per usual Mick, you’ve educated & inspired yet again. Just so happens this time was for an unbelievably talented and melodic player. You sir, truly are a “tone angel”. All my love.
Thanks Aaron!
Brilliant video!! Aynsley is monster guitar player, and awesome singer too! Look forward to seeing where this takes him! Brilliant job tutoring too Mick!! 👍
Really cool to see a great player discover a new voice through pedals. Rock on TPS 🤘🏼
Awesome episode!! Enjoyed more than I can say! Special thanks to Aynsley for graciously putting aside his ego and being willing to let us share in his journey! That can sometimes take a lot of courage!! Absolutely loved Aynsley's playing style!! I wish him nothing but the best in his artistic endeavors!!
This was truly a great video. Taking someone that shy’d away from pedals because they can get very overwhelming. But, also someone that wants to stay “true to their sound”
Ansley is a remarkable player, and his noticeable response to what you did was awesome. Just a bit of delay and Trem through a wet/dry rig. WOW, just amazing sound.
Again, great video
Thank you for introducing Aynsley to those of us in the US who have not heard his music. It’s exactly what I’ve been searching for.
Love Aynsley's style, and Soundman has been one of favourite tracks for years! 👍👍👍
This was great! Wouldnt minde more of this in the future!
Everything about this is beautiful. The comeradery, the tones, Aynsley's playing, the conversation and, omg, that gold Strat. Thanks for this!
Thank you kindly! The Strat is magic isn’t it!?
Possibly your best wet dry vid yet. Relaxed an informal atmosphere really worked well.
This has got to be one of my favourite shows. It's incredible to see Mick passing on his knowledge and equally amazing to see Aynsleys reaction when he hears how good the wet/dry rig sounds. It's such a joy to watch.
This was a great and insight vlog, thanks Mick! You have a great skill for teaching and the moment of realization on wet/dry and the delay pedals in general reminds me of when I started my sonic journey watching TPS. Was really fun to see!
One day when all the craziness is behind us, I think the TPS experience should be a thing. I’d gladly buy a ticket to sit in the room there and soak in the knowledge/listen to some incredible tones from you both.
Btw, all pedals aside, Aynsley proves that a good strat, a good amp, and a great player is all you need.
I remember that feeling! After watching (and listening to) That Pedal Show and then changing my rig to wet/dry.
Happy happy days and thanks for another great show.
Thank you for introducing me to Aynsley! How have I not found this guy before! Amazing tone!
I discovered Aynsley through Guitarist Magazine and checked him out after a review of 1 of his albums and was blown away, such a fabulous player and Tone for days and days and days and days 👍🏼
Thank you for this vlog :-)
Aynsley is such an amazing musician and he really plays the guitar in a way I wish I could. Very very moving and a Sound that goes straight to the soul. Thank you for the indsight and sharing this :-)
Mick, you're a legend, man! Thanks for editing that for us.
Ah bless you Tim. Doing this stuff is so much fun.
This was such an awesome vlog, fly on the wall watching two mates hang out and mess about with gear! Aynsley is such a great artist, seen him a few times and he always has time for people before/after a show. Also got to see that strat when it was green - Chris showed me it on the Rift stand at Birmingham last year
