james90 26 Posted March 2, 2010 There's an answer in that other thread you made, but what else do you want to know in particular? I think I still have the scans from a few magazines about what amps and guitars he used, but I don't know if any effects were mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I still have the scans from a few magazines about what amps and guitars he used, but I don't know if any effects were mentioned. I was looking for more a precise answer. on the thread I made, all I got was fuzz factory. There's a million different settings for the FF, so it didn't help much.

You won't get precise settings unless Matt himself or any sound engineers and road crew feel like telling us. Fuzz Factories can vary slightly and it's not like you need to be precise with it at all, asking for precise settings just says to me you need to play with it more and understand it better.

Fuzz Factories can vary slightly and it's not like you need to be precise with it at all, asking for precise settings just says to me you need to play with it more and understand it better. The way I worked it out was to copy the approximate squeal range from an old live recording of plug in baby or newborn or something else, I can't remember. That gives you your drive and gate settings and you just adjust stab and comp for the song... I.e. newborn riff is comp off stab full, pib is stab adjusted to squeal note, blackout solo starts with comp backing off from full, etc. Essentially, use your ears Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like with PIB, if the pedal is oscillating, it'll do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends how accurate you want to be - not all the oscillating settings will do the note-bending-into-squeal thing and we all know what's important to mini-bellamys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lee-robins 10 Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) what did matt use for the distortion on the studio version of showbiz, is it an amp or a pedal? Edited March 19, 2010 by lee-robins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james90 26 Posted March 19, 2010 soldano decatone or matchless dc-30 most likely ..both of those are amps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lee-robins 10 Posted March 21, 2010 was the decatone his main amp in that era? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james90 26 Posted March 21, 2010 pretty much. he used the matchless a lot too, but the soldano was probably for higher gain sounds.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

james90 26 Posted March 21, 2010 so is it a phaser used live for showbiz? No. Haze is right, there hasn't been a wah pedal in his setup ever, however, the sound you're referring to is more than likely the roland VG-8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AN894yIZFEs 2:20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
