    I truly hope you dig this new format. I had a blast making it. Really awesome feeling to actually directly respond to the questions and pedal combo ideas you have. This video turned out crazy long though. I'll try to keep the other ones more concise. But that's my weakness. Once I get going, it's tough to say stop. Especially when you're having fun. Can't wait to make the next episode :) All the best - Stefan

    That first tip there with long decay and less mix should be printed in every reverb manual. Silly I didn't know this as I have three reverbs where one is in a Dreadbox nyx that I mainly use as a reverb pedal for other synths. Thanks for mini tutorial, this was great : )

    Stefan, I think the reason people look for your advice for things that you may consider to be "not your specialty" (like dirt pedals) is that you may or may not know how valuable it is to find a gear demo guy who plays and uses gear in a similar way to how I would also use it.
    Of course we all love to hear the great guru's of tone and truly amazing players discuss gear and music philosophy, but if I want to know about how a certain chorus pedal sounds, it is incredibly valuable to hear someone demo it in the same style that I would want to use it.
    No pressure, but a lot of us want to hear how a pedal would sound when YOU play it before mashing that "purchase" button, because it is a little closer to hearing how the pedal might sound when I play it after it arrives.

Especially when using reverb and delay together, take down that mix and bump up the feedback, and let the trails from the delay help create a lingering reverberating pad as it feeds into the reverb pedal.

    Another way to keep clarity and enjoy a reverb at 100% wet is to run the reverb in parallel using a pair of MG06 mixers or so. Impractical outside of a studio or your home, though.
    You give an impression that you do not know that the Mercury7's pre-delay is adjusted using "Alt" + "Space Decay".

    • @thepedalzone
      @thepedalzone  3 года назад +1

    If I may add something to the first question apart of Stefan's brilliant advices (I learned the importance of keeping a low mix from this channel). Could be obvious but I think single coils and a clean fenderish amp make a huge difference to maintain some note definition when using tons of reverb. This is why I love single coil guitars.

    Another tip for the 1st question is to put the delay/reverb in the effects loop, if more clarity is what you want.
    Optimally, if you're recording or using an amp sim, putting the delay/reverb in post-processing after the amp gives the most clear results.

    I would love a pre delay parameter to lessen the attack or transient. There’s been many instances when I’ve wanted a high pre delay but then did not like percussive or rhythmic effect of it, if that makes sense.

    Also funny you say you don't like dirt pedals that much because you play them so well. By well I mean precise or sort of clean, I now it sounds like a contradiction, but what I mean is that they need a high level of control in order to not sound like mud or meaningless noise, something I hear you know very well.

      Cheers, bud! I’m just using a Panasonic LUMIX G Vario 14-140mm lens. It was the kit lens that came with my LUMIX GX8 camera. It’s versatile and gets the job done. But I would like a prime lens with better sharpness and depth of field in the near future 😊

    how do you reduce latency when using multiple pedals in a DAW ? (can be very hard to play along)
    would going from a Focusrite to an Apollo interface change much?
