    Effects and channel switching

    To Calvin: I was thinking about using only a clean channel as well, but since the amp’s drive and gain are prettier than whatever I ever got from the effects, I try to avoid this. To Brandon: Oh, okay. From what I’m interested in (I have a Hughes&Kettner amp and thinking about Laney Ironheart or...

    Effects and channel switching

    Well, I was using multieffects for some time. They still seem like the most logical (and practical) solution for multiple sounds prepared to use while not changing my setup at all. Also, I did some deeper research today and there are some units capable of having MIDI input and output while...

    Effects and channel switching

    Thank you for the reply. However, I might not get how this would solve my switching problem. My amp already has a MIDI and I have a footswitch to control it. Also I have several effects without any MIDI possibilities, just 6.3mm jacks. I am trying to find a way how to switch both amp channel and...

    Effects and channel switching

    Hello everyone! Recently I started thinking about switching channels of an amp, effects and so. Actually, there are two questions I would like to ask you, and they are both tied up together. So, I started thinking about getting a different amp (a 100W tube H&K is good, but… large, heavy and...

    Buying a new guitar

    Well, when it comes to cheaper guitars, I would always go for the fixed bridge (although even though they can have issues heavily influencing the sound quality, however that should not be this case, hopefully). Btw, nice choice you did – Schecter (from what I’ve heard) produces good guitars...

    Influences ?

    My first order are Jim Root, Mick Thomson and Syn, but the guys from Slipknot influence me more when it comes to sound inspiration. As for the second, here I would select Rammstein guitarists Paul Landers and Richard Kruspe. Also maybe I would mention Rob Scallon as for the clean guitar parts...

    Finding motivation and inspiration

    Hello everyone, I would like to ask you two questions (maybe they have been already posted, then sorry for duplicate) to get some inspiration for me and others here. For me it’s quite common that I come up with some riff or melody, but there is no other idea how to expand this idea into...

    what was your first guitar?

    I got my first guitar from my parents shortly before I turned 14 (so I can start the lessons in time) and it was an Epiphone LP100. I remember that my teacher approved the choice as the first one, but sadly before he has seen me – for my height the Les Paul is just so damn small, and as I was...

    What process should I go through to audition a bass player?

    Well, from my point of view, as nowadays I play bass more than the guitar (there are just a few bass players and sooo many guitarists…) in bands and as I tried a lot of bassists to play with… there are several things. First of all, the most important thing as for almost every band member, it’s...
