Finally my favorite ukulele reviewer used some pedals
Played uke on stage for three years and always used a pedal board!
@@GotAUkulele guess I was wrong then lmao
Wonderful introduction to effects pedals for the ʻukulele. I had a recent gig with a hula dancer and felt I could have enhanced my music a bit. My main instrument is a six string tenor since I am a strummer. The short examples of combinations at the end got me really excited about the possibilities. Especially the tremelo with the chorus. Thank you for helping me enhance my music. Mahalo!
Thanks so much!
Excellent! I love the sounds you can get. It is a great way to show what a great instrument can get out of 4 strings. Loved it !...DOC
Thanks a lot!
Love my boss heavy metal pedal sounds amazing
Very helpful I've been clueless on effects and effect pedals, playing mainly acoustic. But recently with my alternate reality tenor tele I want to experiment more. 👍
Thanks Nigel - it's an addictive rabbit hole to go down!
@@GotAUkulele As opposed to a rabbit 🐰 in the headlights which is generally the case with my knowledge of effects 😂
Pedals are fun. I use them more with guitars but a little bit of reverb and delay is a lot of fun with a ukulele. Great over view.
Cool, thanks!
Great overview. I have a Vorson solid body uke and was thinking about effects, but didnt really know where to start. Thanks brother ;)
My pleasure!
I'm between this set of things: amp, pedal.. (more expensive in total) or the tenor Flight Diana Soundwave that I fall in love with. Thanks for the reviews!!!
The Soundwave is a nice diversion, but no match for pedals and an amp
Thank you for that last bit about just enjoying making music. It's cool to hear these effects for a novelty but I'm perfectly happy sitting alone in my den after a long day at work and listening to myself strum my acoustic.
Fair enough!
Facebook chatting with Jake S. late one night (as he changed strings), I got a looper recommendation for a Boss RC-1 and bought that. I also have a pre-amp that I’ve only used twice (the K&K passives I have on two of my ukes do fine without preamp, and my Mi-Si is its own pre-amp), and, so far, for reverb and chorus, I use the options built into my Fishman LoudBox Mini. But eventually I may want more effects, and I appreciate the review. Thank you, Barry!
Thanks Tom. The RC-1 is great and in fact Boss are my 'go to' for pedals generally - they'd survive a nuclear blast!
A very great number of years ago, I helped someone design and effect that now that I think about it would be a really good one for a Ukulele. It may be on the market, I really don't know but here is what it basically did.
The first stage picked off the signal amplitude for one path and did an "overdrive" going to a different path.
The second stage modified the "overdrive" signal in sort of an extreme chorus like effect this could include shifting the notes down as much as two octaves.
The 3rd stage took the amplitude signal from the first and used that to control the gain applied.
The result was a thing that sounded like a second instrument was playing along.
Interesting!
I'm so happy to see you do this. I've been looking at the Zoom, but I put my toe in the water with a little PockRock first. It's a blast! I guess I have a little guitar envy LOL. You gotta rock once in a while. One thing you didn't mention was the drum machine. Seems pretty useful even with an accoustic sound.
To be honest, the video was not about the Zoom - could have been any multi effects - I just used it to demo the various groupings as it was easier than me setting up five pedals in my small office!
This is good particularly for people playing live. Maybe it’s worth pointing out that you can get a lot of effects on recording software like GarageBand , and digital recorders.
Yes you can - as you can on a lot of amps.
Great tutorial on pedals Baz!
Thanks!
Great review again Baz!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@GotAUkulele what is the effect pedal called and where can I get one?
interesting and helpful video!!! thank you
Thank you!
@@GotAUkulele no problem have a good day
Nice review, I've been using my RP100 modeller for a while now, makes for more interest. As to the "rules" there are no rules...
THanks!
Just amazing! Thank you for inspiration❤️
Thanks for watching!
Appreciate the information! I've always found playing with effects to be fun. They can even make simple repetitive exercises more interesting. Wondering if you have any thoughts on preamps for passive pickups?
LR Baggs Venue DI is my pre-amp choice - divine pedal that is superb for notching out nasty tones. More basic (Sadly no longer made, but you can find them used) is a Fishman Pro EQ II
@@GotAUkulele Awesome, thank you!
Great video! I love using effects with my ukulele!
Yeah - lots of fun!
Excellent work mate. Cheers for that
Thanks bud!
Really interesting do you think to do a review on multiple effects pedal? Thanks from Italy
Unlikely - wouldn't suit the main content of the channel - and I don't want to get into reviewing pedals! lol!
@@GotAUkulele correct it's off topic👍🙂
You mentioned fluorocarbon strings. On another uke, perhaps a hollow body acoustic-electric all other things being equal, will type of string- eg fluorocarbon vs Aquila, make a difference in how the effect pedals sound with the ukulele?
It will make a difference but only insofar as the same difference to the core acoustic tone. With a nylon strung uke using a piezo pickup, all that pickup is doing is amplifying the core acoustic tone. I've never found different strings suit effects better - in fact effects tend to blur the lines between different strings anyway.
Thanks! @@GotAUkulele
Good stuff, Baz.
I feel lucky that I moved from being a bad guitar player to being a slightly better ukulele player. A set of pedals is great. A looper is a great way to get better.
I can lose hours playing with pedals - huge fun!
@@GotAUkulele I keep meaning to sak - so I just will ... what's the tune you tend to play to show what a uke sounds like?
It sounds a but old-fashionad and ragtimey. I like it.
@@emm_arr Link in the description to every review!
@@GotAUkulele Thank you so much. I just zapped a fiver your way as a thank-you for that and for being a good egg.
@@emm_arr Ahh - thanks for that!
This was cool. 😎 What's the deal with compression pedals?
Nothing wrong with them - just that they rely on an instrument having natural sustain - which most nylon strings don't. Work great on steel string electrics though.
@@GotAUkulele thanks for that.
Hi 😊
I’ve watched your review about the Flight Fireball … I’d been looking for my first ukulele and your review clinched it for me .. I’m now the proud owner of my little fireball tenor 🥳🥳🥳🥳 from World of Ukes ..lovely guy who runs it 🤩
What I’d like to ask you please is would the Zoom A1X four acoustic multi effects pedal be alright to use ..? ..I’ve noticed on your video you have used the G1 for electric guitars 🦋
Good choice, and Matt is a lovely person. To be honest, any effects pedal will be fund. I have the guitar version as I use it with more instruments, but the Acoustic version WILL suit an electro acoustic instrument better (basically it will remove the sort of effects that don't suit acoustics so much an major more on those that do)
@@GotAUkulele
Hi
That’s great to know thank you so much for your quick response 😋🦋
Irig and amplitude great for effects.
There are some great app / software effects out there and when it comes to digital effects will be indistinguishable. I'm a big fan of analogue pedals though which no digital pedal or app can come close to!
Good fun!
Very!
Are you doing all of these effects with a single pedal? If so, which is it and would it work with an electroacoustic uke?
Yep - a Zoom G1 - will work with electro acoustic
@@GotAUkulele Thank you so much for replying!
Just when I didn’t want to spend more money on Ukuleles, I go and learn this is a thing…
It’s a slippery slope!
Pls. what is the multi effect pedal you used in this video called? And where did you get it?
Zoom G1 FOUR - Gear 4 Music
Hi Baz what make of pedal are you using there ? really enjoyed the video
Zoom
I bought a cheap as chips reverb a few months ago expecting to suddenly sound like Kalei Gamaio. Turns out I need to, what was the word, prak-tiss? Hope I said that right...
less is more too with reverb. Use barely any and build it up. Overdone reverb is hideous!
@@GotAUkulele I used it to disguise my middling talent so it was indeed cranked up to novelty levels. I've improved a lot since then so I'll dig it out. Great content as usual, Baz. Now I have to get a looper so I can pretend I have a ukulele playing friend ;)
See you at the weekend 😎
@@poco_a_poco_music ha ha! Thanks Kelsey!
Thank you for a concise overview of pedals.
My pleasure!
What pedal are you using?
Zoom G1
Can we use an electric guitar amplifier on the ukulele ?
Yes absolutely
@@GotAUkulele can u do rock effects on it too?
@@L20069 Yep - with the right pedals or a dirty gain channel on an amp
@@GotAUkulele oh, can u suggest me an amp for the rock tone on the ukulele ?
FAR too many to choose from - and all sorts of prices. I personally use Blackstar amps for rock tones, and Roland Acoustic amps if I just want pure uke sound
What effects pedal is this?
A Zoom G1 FOUR
which uke model you showcasing? and what pickup does it have? i feel you having kind of advanced setup from the start.. electric uke? my piezo sounds nothing like it, i have less sustain..
Made for me by a luthier called Rob Collins. Nothing advanced - body is a hunk of mahogany and pick-up is an ultra cheap Artec pickup.
Sorry - should have given you a link - this one ruclips.net/video/5BY9iP2CvV0/видео.html
Love it 😍 Ukuleles on drugs! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Ha ha - and I didn't even go into phasers, flangers and octavers. Wacky!!
Superb Baz. Thank you.
My pleasure!
what kinda uke you got there?
Custom built solid body Tenor - made for me by Rob Collins at Tinguitar in the UK
Thanks Baz, I’m looking at looper pedals, but noticed you use a zoom multi effects, is the looper function on it good, can you do a review on it for Ukulele?
Sorry - since sold it on!
If only Ready Ace made effect pedals 😆
Can you imagine....
