in the live verison released of this, matt is playing the guitar and it sounds like it's being played through a seek wah.. anyone?

[Shatter]

i have a feeling he's rocking the treadle on the whammy set to harmony +1/-1 Oct. sounds right when i do it anyway

ya but it's SO acurate every time.. it sounds more like something arpeggiated..

[donbenjy]

i don't know if matt like analogueness anymore...seems like he's going for digital midi pedals nowadays, which would suggest its the line6?

 

bet a seek wah would do it though...

[Dramatic Hammer]

It's probably the seek-wah patch on his Line 6 rack filter thingy.

[donbenjy]

oh yeh, they have that dont they

[Russell]

Sounds more like a seek trem to me. But hey, i could be wrong.

listen to the video on the Zvex ite, I think the seek wah sounds much more like it than the seek trem

easy to recreate, all you need is a whammy, midi cable and cubase. Set the whammy to -1oct and on cubase make a midi track and create 1 blank bar, in the piano roll create a controller lane for CC11 and create the rhythem in that controller lane like this...

Then if you just play a C power chord it should sound like this

There're at least three different 'levels' to the sound though .

[rust_relic]

i think its the voice box setting on the line6 filter pro imho

It's so accurate because it's a mime.

[donbenjy]

wtf? He mimed on the recording also? Whether its a back track or not, he would have played it at some time or other, and there's usually an artificiality (is that even a word?) to processed sounds

i've tried it and it sounds quite close

[reverendmaynard]

really? what settings are you doing?

 

you can get a close sound with the "obi-wah" setting, you just have to tweak the knobs right and set the speed at a high rate

i might try that as mine is good but not perfect

[Rokit]

do you know if that is the fuzz factorys distortion?

[haze015]

No, it's not a Fuzz Factory. Plus a Fuzz Factory is a fuzz, not a distortion, there is a difference believe it or not.

[Rokit]

What is it then?

[haze015]

Amp distortion. Which is what Matt uses 99% of the time.

[Rokit]

so thats the dsl's distortion or the diezel because in the video in italy he's using the dsl

[Chaos Is Me!]

Whatever he used to record the song that was being played back.

[Rokit]

played back? it was a fake!

[james90]

Hahahahaha...dear me.

 

That amp is most likely a JCM 900, you can tell by the small non-bold writing on the face plate...plus, it doesn't have as many knobs.
