MUSEDREAM Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Why should i post a false thing? However...you can believe me or not, it doesn't care (ah..in the article rich said that matt asked him to use synths, but rich prefered guitar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Why should i post a false thing? However...you can believe me or not, it doesn't care (ah..in the article rich said that matt asked him to use synths, but rich prefered guitar) that is true. the guitar part is done with the guitar signal split between 3 amps, 1 dry, 1 with a whammy an octave up, and one an octave down. the amps are then sequenced between. i'd imagine the synths where used to double up the sound to make it all a bit smoother or something but i'm guessing that part.

Cyndris Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 i did read it, but im not entirely convinced that is what matt plays plus it sounded off Guess it's like this, in drop C: 3--3--4--x 4--4--4--6 5--3--5--5 5--5--6--3 3--6--6--x 0--3--x--5 It's how I've seen him play it, Good Luck.

MattB93 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 an easy way to get the right effect is with a computer program called Guitar Rig 3. using that, you can copy the effect using 2 pitch pedals and 2 analog sequencers. hard to explain with words, but if you type in "map of the problematique effect" on youtube you're bound to find something.

sharika Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 haha i just got my effect so have no idea wtf they all mean..i got multi effect so they could cover most things...and at one point i found great effects that counded just like motp but i forgot them...i think one part of it had the word flange in it..i can't remember..but when i figure out what it was i'll post it..it probably wont be the same way matt plays it but if it dsounds the same who gives a shit?

tomrulez Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Your not going to get the same sound with a flanger, it has been well established that it's a sequenced pitch shifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo57 Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I figured out a version of MOTP that doesn't use effects... a; I can't afford any right now, and b; I'm not investing in sequencers and synths just to play one song. This would really require a video to illustrate the rhythms involved... might do it when I eventually get a decent guitar. But anyway. Tune the sixth string down to C. Yes, C. For the intro, hold a C power chord: e --x-- B --x-- G --5-- D --5-- A --3-- C --x-- Like that. Strike that once, and then strike the third and fifth strings as appropriate, because when you form that chord these make an octave. So listen to each of those notes, then try to hit those according to the intro. It really needs a video to explain it clearly, but I'll attempt to write a tab. e ------------------------------------- B ------------------------------------ G --5---5---5----5--5---5----5--- D --5----------------------------5--- etc. etc. A --3-----------3--------3------3-- C ------------------------------------ Hopefully that makes sense. Probably not. But you're striking the chord, then using the two octave notes above and below to "play along" with the octave sequencing in the real intro. Then, it kind of goes down as Chris' high-pitched, picked bass comes in. Use the low C string for this, playing single notes on it. The notes go C, D#/Eb, G#/Ab, then F. In terms of frets, that's open, third fret, eighth fret, then back to the fifth. The rhythm is something I can't put in tab, so load up the video of MotP at Wembley and try to play along with the rhythm. Then, it's just power chords on the fifth string. Don't bother about the individual note picking, that's done now. Just go C, D#/Eb, G#/Ab, then F - in frets terms: e ---------------------------- B ---------------------------- G --5----8----13----10--- D --5----8----13----10--- A --3----6----11-----8---- C --------------------------- Just load up the vid, and strum with the rhythm. Again, something I can't put up in tab. Then, for the verse, you can keep doing that, or remove the fifth from the middle and just play octaves... I prefer the latter for a different sound, but it's not really important. All up to you. The whole song is based off these chords... for most of it, that's what you're doing. Just playing these chords, in this rhythm, for a lot of the song. However, there is a part later in the song before the end where it "goes down" and calms down a bit. I like to use barre chords here. These chords use the same roots as the power chords of course... so you want Cm, D#/Eb, G#Ab, and finally Fm. By the way, since we tuned the sixth down to C, the root note won't work with the lower chords, so leave the sixth string out for now. So again, in tab - Cm, D#/Eb, G#Ab, and Fm. e ----3----8----4----1----- B ---4----8----4----1----- G ---5----8----5----1----- D ---5----8----6----3----- A ---3----6----6----3----- C ---x----x----x----x------ Something like that. That may be wrong, because writing tab has to be my least favourite thing on earth. But yeah, just standard minor/major barre chords. Then, play a C through the outro, then blaze into the Maggie's Farm riff, courtesy of the low C string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam511 Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Thats seems the way id do it without an effect or anything, but id probably (and it doesnt sound amazingly clean) strum across the octave but muting the notes not to be played (kind of like the pre solo in invincible) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
