    This was such a treasure trove of information! Really love your enthusiasm for your faves. A lot of pedals I'd never heard of but now are on my list of new pedals to try!

    WOW! Never seen pedals plugged into a violin! sounds awesome! Subscribed!

    You have an amazing sound. I discovered Volur from your first rig rundown video when I was researching the idea of adapting my guitar rig for violin. I’ve always wanted to hear a competent violinist playing through any of the six guitar rigs I’ve built.

      Thanks so much! Send a pedalboard over and I'll happily take it for a rip ;)

      @ Would it be possible for you to send some dry tracks that I could re-amp? The rigs I built were rack rigs for local musicians that I’ve lost contact with over the years. I’m now down to a Fryette GPDI preamp, Eventide H9 & a Mesa/Boogie power amp. I’d just love to hear how the GPDI overdrive colors the violin.

    Violin with a 100Watt Hiwatt was good enough for David Cross in King Crimson and Simon in Hawkwind! Cool sounds Laura, keep the tube amps alive. Some of your effects remind me of the Warrior on the Edge of Time album 75

    Great video, really great for someone delving deep like me. But I'm curious why you have use the mxr equaliser if you also have the LR Baggs preamp which has a 5 band eq?

  • @Clamps666

    Found you and your band through this run down. Awesome stuff!
    I love my Zoia, though it can be tricky at times. Would definitely be interested in maybe not a full run down (as you said, it would take ages) but a selection of patches you've made or others have made that you find useful for your needs.
    Subbed!

    There is so much untapped potential with these distorted violin sounds

  • @fredericvankote7689
    @fredericvankote7689 3 года назад +3

    Thanks for the great and very useful presentation! I have a Vector Violin that sounds good. Which amp do you recommend to play with a pedalboard classical, jazz, and rock with distortion. Roland AC 60, fender junior blues, mesa boogie studio 22+, fishman loudbox artist, ...?

    •  3 года назад +1

      I'd say you can't go wrong with the fender blues junior for most situations - the mesa for when you want to be scorching loud. I find tube amps to be amazing for electric violin, I don't love the fishman loudbox.

    Have you had a chance to play around with the zoia since you posted this video? I’m very curious about use of the zoia with e-violin

  • @macleadg
    @macleadg 11 месяцев назад

    I love the attack you get on the low strings. I’m sure your excellent technique plays a big role, but is there more to it? A particular bow? Another component in your equipment?

  • @BenXJimenez
    @BenXJimenez 3 года назад +1

    Nice video!
    Are you still planing on making a video exclusively on the zoia?

    •  3 года назад +2

      Eventually! I'm bad at being a youtube-er but I'll work on a zoia exclusive video and will reply here when I do!

  • @vpetrv

    My friends and I are trying to start a punk band with me playing electric violin. i'm having a really hard time because i played for about 12 years, but i am used to symphony violin. do you have any tips on getting into trying different things to go with punk music if that makes sense? or improv? i may just need to practice more and get more comfy

    •  3 года назад

      I think for punk specifically it would be great to do some rhythmic chug style patterns which could be as simple as playing the root and 3rd or 3rd and 5th of the chords as 16th or 8th notes. You could also experiment with more of a bluegrass chop style.... if you want to get fancy you should really check out Earl Maneein. I took a lesson with him once and he's a genius - check out this technique: ruclips.net/video/3MxKoWI86eM/видео.html&ab_channel=TracySilverman

    Hi I just bought my first electric violin. I love metal , but I feel like a lot of distortion effects remove my dynamic range. Do you have any tips for that?

  • @scottallencello
    @scottallencello Месяц назад

    Great demo. Good distortion on strings isn't so easy to achieve. I've had to do a lot of experimentation (still do) to find just the right thing for cello....compression, overdrive, fuzz, gates, etc. One could spend a lot of money making it work. Ironically some of the best and easiest to achieve distortions have come from a cheap zoom bass effects pedal.

  • @scyntl

    Nice stuff. Do you notice a lag with the pitch fork? I've got a love/hate relationship with a little pog that lag's a hair's breadth in addition to outputting that really digitized sound. Maybe the new ones are better, idk. mm

    •  3 года назад +2

      I do not notice a lag with the pitchfork. However, the way that you are describing the pog reminds me that I felt similar about the new-ish memory boy, I did not love the digitized sound!

    • @scyntl
      @scyntl 3 года назад

      @ Cool. Thanks. I'll have to check it out and see how it sounds against the oc-5.

    If I'm using a pickup with an acoustic violin, is a tube amp still okay?

  • @victoriaprieto8845
    @victoriaprieto8845 3 года назад

    May I use an EQ pedal instead of a preamp, I mean, does it work as a preamp?

    •  3 года назад +1

      As this electric violin pick up is passive - as most are - and it doesn't have a preamp either a preamp in the chain is ideal if you're going into a PA or in my situation I'm using a tube amp...... if you're looking for a good preamp, I like the L.R Baggs ones. It actually has some EQ settings on it too.

  • @Honeypawband
    @Honeypawband 3 года назад +1

    Hey Laura, when ever I play with electric violinists, I find it difficult because you can't feel it in your chest like you do with an acoustic. What is your recommendation for getting that thump if you're not playing rock or metal?

    •  3 года назад +3

      I understand what you mean, I'm not sure if I can help because I tend to compensate by playing so loud that I can feel the hairs on my legs vibrate 😅 BUT I do run through sets playing the electric violin with no amplification so that I can feel/get comfortable with the very limited vibrations it puts out. In an ideal performance scenario, I use in-ear monitors and I have the mix engineer pan the violin sound to my left ear so that it mimics the experience of hearing/feeling my acoustic violin.

  • @DeadmanDance
    @DeadmanDance 2 года назад +1

    The keyboard amp part is the true. Can't count the times the sound guy wanted me to plug into the PA and not the amp🙄

    Disreguard detractors, the violin is free to evolve dispite what a small minority of devote pureists believe. Rock on.

  • @TheGavranatar
    @TheGavranatar Месяц назад

    Brilliant video, i'm now convinced that violins, sorry!.. chin guitars, are greatly underused in rock/metal music. I was going to buy one to practice iris trad quietly at night but I might branch out a bit
