Podcasts about ts9

This week, we'll sit down and discuss whether boutique overdrives are really worth all the hype. One piece of sage advice constantly given on the internet is that your favorite overdrive coupled with a quality EQ pedal can sound like nearly any other overdrive out there, so we put that to the test by pitting seven boutique overdrives against a single TS9 with an MXR 6 Band EQ. Play along and see if you can tell which is which! Check out our website here!

Join us as we make wild predictions for the new album dropping at midnight 12/11. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/we-need-to-calm-down/support

Derek sold him amp! Kind of… HX Stomp (stab: OE Revival) Digitech drop update. Standard guitar in an Eb band. (stab: Mathews The Architect) Righteous Tele update (Stab: 805) Gibson update (stab: JHS Unicorn) They released a statement FINALLY. They acknowledged that this is something they have to do but their tone was all wrong. Too little too late, and the actual statement still didn’t soften things much. Apparently they have threatened dealers with legal action unless they stop selling Dean guitars, alleges Dean. Earthquaker Devices Plumes (stab: WA Luminary) It’s a tube screamer with three clipping modes. Like a super baby Palisades. Symmetrical LED clipping, OpAmp distortion, Asymmetrical silicon diode clipping Level, tone, and gain controls. Relay based true bypass with momentary option. The real killer feature is that it’s $99. TS Mini is $79, TS9 is $99, TS808 is $179. Boutique pedal company getting in at those low prices. Cool! Discussion topic idea from fan-of-the-show Eric Giribaldi (stab: WA Plainsman) “What do you do when you reach a crossroads with your equipment?” As in, coming to terms with not needing 11 overdrive pedals, needs vs. wants. Guitarists are weird people. We want all the latest cool tech and big rigs, but also want the simplicity of grab-and-go, maybe some pedals, and an amp. Downsizing your set up. When is it time to sell? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thetonecontrol/message

Back around 2004 Brian had the opportunity to sit down with Brent Mason and ask him some questions in an interview that was thought to be lost forever on a broken hard drive. Brent discusses how a song is developed for recording, and what his process is when he comes up with a solo for a song. He also talks about his recording setup and gives an overview of his gear. Brent has some advice on getting into the music business and some pointers on getting good tone. What would Brent Mason do if he couldn’t play guitar? Who would he like play with that he has not yet? And what legendary artist did he miss out on going on tour with? All on this week’s Chasing Tone Podcast.

A reviewer took one of our competitors to task over using surface mount in their pedal design. Brian sets the record straight on why it is necessary and the differences between the two. There are some “cheap” pedals on the market, but that does not mean they are necessarily bad. In fact some have some pretty good circuits under the hood. Brian and Blake discuss a few.

Everyone knows the the mystical 4558 op-amp IC chip is responsible for the best overdrive tones right? I mean, even Stevie Ray insisted on it in his pedals, am I right? Right?! Joking aside, I dive through several popular op-amp IC chips and let you hear what each one sounds like in the context of Guitar Overdrive Pedal Circuitry. Well, not every one out there, but some popular ones... from $.20 IC chips to $10 versions of the popular Operational Amplifier Integrated Circuit chip. And just for kicks and giggles, I'll show you the difference between several types of diodes, and the difference when running it as a soft clipping overdrive to a hard clipping distortion. Sounds like fun, eh? Oh, and I realize the title is a little click-baity. But it's all in fun, am I right?

Welcome to another "Tone Tips" episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast. In this episode Brian looks at what makes some amps take pedals better than others. And while he is at it, he lets you hear some of the features of the Wampler's new 40 watt Bravado Amplifier.

  I have to say I was really excited to put this episode together. It gave me a chance to try out a lot of things at once. First and foremost I got to sit down with the Germ from Caleb Cook at Hazel Effects and put it through the paces. I really like the sound our this pedal and how it changes from guitar to guitar. It enhances qualities already inherent to the guitar driving it. Next, I experimented with the wattage control on my Vox AD30 VT. One of the big selling points for me on that amp was the variable wattage (from 30 watts down to 1 watt) because I wanted to be able to record the sound I wanted at lower volume levels. So far, I am REALLY loving that feature. The last variable was using the iRig mic to record the amp straight into the Bossjock app for easier play back when recording the actual show.   It was the last variable that made me aphrensive and delayed me from the actual task. When I started recording digitally and recording live guitars, I could never get a sound I was happy with. I read every article and tried every trick the pros used, but still just lifeless sound. I finally made myself sit down and try to record and I used a technique I picked up from the Project Studio Network podcast. The technique is from a book called "Mixing with your mind" and it's a different way of looking at recording. The technique fir mic'ing the amp revolves around where to place the mic. What the Author says to do is place your hand between the mic and the amp and move your hand around while some one is playing the guitar. When the hairs on the back of your hand stand up, that is where you should place the mic. Sounds simple right? The first three samples were mixed with that technique and the others were not, so you can judge for yourself how it sounds. I am much happier with the first three samples. For the first three audio samples my signal chain consisted of my Fender Pawnshop '51 into the Germ and then into the Vox AD30 VT. On the Vox I used the boutique clean amp setting to take all the drive out. I wanted just the Germ pushing fuzz. The '51 has coil splitting built in, so I demo it with the bridge humbucker and the split out single coil. For the second set of audio samples I use the same chain, except I swap out the guitar to my Epiphone Korina G-400. The more I play that guitar the more I like it and want to re-wire it. I am jut not entirely happy with the pick ups. For the other sound samples, I have no Idea what all was used because I forgot to write it down (insert smiley face here, ha ha ha). I know my TS9 and my Demeter Tremulator made it into the mix, but I am not really sure which guitars we used. Last thing is if you have bee following my social media, you probably know that I am a fan of the Movie Sound City. If you have not seen it yet, check it out. That movie really inspired me to push things with my recording and I recorded a real guitar Amp in stead of using a plug-in. I might never go back. I am finally getting the sounds I have always wanted. Until next time... make some noise!
