      RUclips "HTML 5 error" again.
      Quite frankly, I don't really understand why RUclips randomly converts uploaded video to either "standard mp4 format" or that horrendous "HTML 5 format".
      If it keeps on like this I'll probably find myself unsubscribing from most channels ... :D

In the meantime Rick has interviewed Brian May, Sting, Keith Jarrett(!!!!) and so many more... and I assume every one of them were maybe hesitant to do an interview with him, but then maybe saw a interview Rick did previously and realised what a great interviewer he is.

      so glad I kept some volume pedals.. Jimmy Herring uses them Dweezil Zappa also in clever ways..have to re listen now to hear the volume pedal placements.
      Seems it was before delays so they could go through trail out or add in more delay
      Dweezil uses axe fx and you can adjust controllers in any point of signal path
      so if you want more delay in parts with reverb you can push toe down and more delay heel back would go back to where its not so much things like that still allow the delay to trail on through but you still have option to crank that wet signal up for solo or dynamics.
      Herring has volume pedals on everything he can add more amp in or delay or verb and his pedals were setup heel toe where down its more heel back its less or off.
      Oh Herring has monitor mixes from his other band mates near him on stage
      and he has volumes on each so he mixes the band in his monitors !
      If he wants more drums and organ he has it organ too much lower it bring bass drums up
      to hear his own mix that does not effect the FRONT OF HOUSE.
      BUT he also has volume pedals where he can make reverb or delay BIGGER for solos
      that does hit the front of house sound. That sea of volume pedals before Herring is
      his stage monitor mix and front of house mix . He does not like in ear monitors
      so he mixes with his feet and always has a bit more volume on the amp for dynamic control over the band his own rig and mix and front of house mix from his own rig.
      They asked him if he could turn the band down overall and he laughed and said no
      it was just for his own mix ... :)

Such an important point and the fact that Tim has created a workspace specifically to combat momentum killers while quickly pursuing a 'sanctioned' creative idea is well, genius. Rick, your questions are so insightful. What do they say about better questions get better answers? OK that's enough from me. I've still got 42mins to enjoy 😊

    The 3 most important things I learned as a NYC recording session player-composer.
    1. Be on time. You can be a Guthrie Govan, but if you're late twice you're off their call list.
    2. Don't be a dick. The walls close in very fast for those stuck in the session with you. One of the best musicians I've ever met was blacklisted because he acted like a dick once to the wrong people.
    3. Don't laugh hysterically when the client asks if you can make it "more Orange".

And as far as his playing..his touch or the way he varies the way he attacks his notes with a pick sometimes or his fingers others makes his solos so expressive almost lyrical. So good. I had never really heard someone do it as well as Tim and I just love to hear him picking a beautiful line and then just did in with a bend wow! Plus he plays with such joy and his faces when he is making those expressive notes match. How a client couldn't just love to watch him work if he is doing this for them to their music. Powerful stuff. As a music lover and wanna be guitar player it is so enjoyable.

    Wow, I loved this...the interview, going through the gear, the chain, etc. It was a real treat for me. I lived in L.A. for 25 years doing music..gigs, recording (was on a label). My engineer had a great studio and he taught me about mic pre's, mics, Pro Tools/Logic and the short cuts, etc. (he engineered for Pink, Quincy Jones, Van Halen, does all of the Rammstein albums now in Berlin). I had to leave L.A. seven years ago to take care of my elderly father in Texas. The biggest, most massive loss to me was having to leave my engineer who I had worked with for over 20 years...a huge loss for me. Going through your studio gave me a real sense of "home" and made me happy. My #1 favorite place in the world is to be in a studio sitting next to my engineer going through tracks and arranging and mixing. So, I got a little piece of that back tonight watching this video. Thank you so much.

    "Basically you have to have a big ego, and then you have to allow that ego to be annihilated, and then you have to bring it right back big and strong." Yes, this. Applies elsewhere in life too, haha.18:58

    This was a superb one! Thanks so much for taking the time and asking those particular questions! Truly this vid is a powerhouse meet. Very cool! I smiled the whole 43 minutes and for quite a while afterwards. Thank you both!

    This has to be one of my major favorite musician geek out discussion I have seen... It was a pleasure following along in the conversation/interview into the specific dial turning nuances that would make lab scientists in white jackets discussing and mixing chemical composition experiements orgasm, but from a musicians perspectives...
    haha, well done Beato! I think you should take this approach on the road and do this with more musicians on Tim's level (lightbulb goes ding...) You have the knowledge, curiosity and personal approach (respect etc) to get musicians to spill their details.
    And as far as Tim is concerned, he is a freakin' guitar librarian with his knowledge of what works now for him after decades of his own MR&D of equipment and session experience ~ like I said one of my favorite geek out discussion/interviews ;-)

    Would have been great to have RUclips back in '73 when I started playing... What a great show. I'm learning more now than ever before.

    Rick, hands down you have my favorite content. I love the interviews, the stories, the theory and tech. Netflix, Prime, Crave, if you we there, you'd clean up. You can endlessly scroll thru their thumbnails with little to show for the time spent clicking. I always have good take away with your episodes. Thank you for your generosity in sharing - Mike

    This video is all kinds of awesome, Rick. I'm a bass player myself so I'll be sending this link to a bunch of my guitar playing friends. They'll all like it since they're all on the quest for the Ultimate Guitar Tone and Tim has that right under his fingers whenever he wants it.
    I bet when he turns all that equipment on, his neighbor's lights get dim.

    Great tips all around, hearing two exceptional human beings talk over their craft, and the value of RUclips communities. And why it’s worth it to get rid of all the little momentum barriers in session work.

    Cool to see Tim mention the Smiths. I know it was in passing, but I’d love to hear what he’s play to make something that sounds like them.

    This talk about clients is exactly what I went through for many years doing art and design. I’m also at the point where I can say “sorry, I guess its not going to work out, etc”.

    40:42 so funny. amazing to think that you can do all this with a line6/kemper/axefx etc and take it on gigs with literally 2 patch cords. what a time to be alive. this guy is the guru of bedroom guitarists

    • @Lisbonized
      @Lisbonized 5 лет назад

      I love analog but take my line 6 and shortboard to gigs. Literally bring with me, guitar, pedal board and lead. So many effects already progged in and the audience really can’t tell it’s digital!
