Did you take off the comp on the preset that it comes with ?
Hey james, I have kilt v1 and wampler tumnus and was thinking of buying Superbolt v2. Should I put SB before kilt or after? I would use it as low gain setting.
I did download E. Edwards preset but it looks different than yours, it doesn't have IRs, just amps with cabs. Where did you get yours?
I have a question friend, in 2020 you used the RC booster before the compressor, and in this new version you use it after the compressor, what was the reason?
Whats the stuff youre using to create all the swells in the end? Multiple pedals and presets or just the Bigsky? Im new to this so looking to learn 🙂
NICE TONE
Hi. Amazing tones and rig!. How does the stomp patch compare to an iridium with similar ir's?
Thanks
What’s the patching you did in order to put your volume pedal out of the signal chain.
What brand of cables do you use?
How you setup your line6 stomp 4 cabel method or directly in loop?
What are the brand of those foot switches. I'm having a hard time finding 2 channel foot switchers.
Also curious to know if the E Edwards patches use stock cabs or IRs?
Awesome DH Amps demo!
I have his patches too. Just curious, do you adjust his EQ settings at all for your Gretsch or are you just using his stock EQ?
Thanks
Question as someone who is finally upgrading to a dream board with higher pulling pedals power wise. What is the best signal chain for guitar pedals? I am running a Strymon Sunset OD, JHS Lucky Cat, HoF Reverb, and a Zoom MS-50G for amp/cabinet modeling. Im wanting to add a keeley verbotrem, mxr dynacomp, and a booster at some point as well, but Im not experienced on the best way to run a signal chain to keep my tone from dying down in the chain.
Love your tones and playing James. I would always know it's you. Brilliant way to be. (I was going to say super cool! ????)
Just a thought from an Audio Engineer in a previous life… If you are still running this board, swap the position of the Big Sky and the Stomp. Everyone should hear the Stomp through headphones even if it's only while using HX Edit. This would give you access to the phones output on the left of the Stomp. Also, try put your stereo FX through the send/return of the Stomp. This way you can move all your stereo pedals wherever you want in the chain. Loads more options and space available using this method. It does take a block for the send & return but you should give it a go as it's definitely worth it. The FX Loop can also be assigned to a footswitch so Juliana, Timeline & Big Sky can be muted with one click!. Keep the tone vids coming!
Hey man! Have you experimented with running all your wet effects into the stereo FX loop in the stomp vs just running everything in front of it?
Amazing board! Quick question, how do you approach or what setting do you use on your amps for your gretsch duo jet? I have the same guitar and sometimes have difficulty on getting a great tone. Thank you.
Did you get rid of the iridium?
Great walkthrough my friend, brilliant tones! Interested to know, are you using your interfacer with the buffer on? You seem to keep the tone pretty much the same when everything is switched off. Tone suck is a real problem I have with my board, I have to add a bit more compression to keep the tone rounded instead of already having my tone before I switch on the compressor. How do you combat tone suck with the number of pedals you have?
Hey! Did u put in the IRs from DH into the Edward Patch? Iam also using both, but my Edward patch doesnt include IRs. Maybe u can tell me if u combined both? THANKS!
Nice WALKTHROUGH ! What do you think about Morning glory and Kilt for combination? What is the difference between Morning glory and Superbolt?
Hey Man. Did you tweak the DH stomp patch at all or is it “stock”?
I'm currently running bigsky/timeline after hx stomp. Sounds great to my ears but wondering if it is better to run before stomp?
Signal Chain:
In -> GoodWood Interfacer -> Barber Tone Press Compressor -> HX Stomp (Bondi Effects Sick As FX Loop 1 & JHS Kilt FX Loop 2 both in front of amps) -> Stereo Timeline -> Stereo Bigsky -> Stero GoodWood Interfacer
You don't run your wet effects through an effects loop?
God bless you man.
Do you use lavacable in your pedal board?
Hi I'm planning to buy my first electric guitar and I dont know what type of guitar I would choose should I get the tele dual hh or the strat for a worship?
Amazing board, amazing sounds!
Dope tone bro! ????????in your signal chain, what’s after your kilt v2? Please correct me if I’m wrong but I heard your volume pedal goes into the vertex boost and out of the boost into the audition.. so I was wondering what goes in out of the kilt.
What cables would I need for the stomp? And would I need a di box for church through stomp
Hey James, did you find the Line 6 Stomp's amp models sounds better than previous Strymon Iridium that I saw in earlier videos on your YouTube channel? Thanx 🙂
Wow! Could you please share the Strymon timeline and big sky presets that you showed us on this video?
Love your board and tone!
Awesome! Great pedalboard!
I wouldn't even know what to do with half of this gear. Maybe stare at it in awe and wonder.
I run my Benson preamp into my hx stomp and even with both of those boxes sounding great I actually use the little cab simulator switch on my Big Sky….. literally polishes everything off, it just makes everything so perfect and warm….. for me at least.
Incredible sounds man. This is kind of an abstract question, but what's your process for dialing in delay and reverb? I'm thinking of your general clean sound at 4:30 – how do you decide how high of a mix to use or how long of trails to use? Do you use a lot of pre-delay? Do you want your delays stronger than your reverb or vice versa? Would love to hear any thoughts!
Your Superbolt’s drive is set pretty low, but sounds so huge! Love it!
Well done, love it. God bless man!
Awesome sounds man! ????????
Love your setup, my friend! I’ve been running solo Stomp for a bit just to simplify and get the basics down, but looking to put a pedalboard together, and this is pure inspiration. Also, Daphne Blue?
Dope board! Sounds great. Stoked to see you using the stomp patch!
Hey James, nice walkthrough and tones! I usually play mono through my amp, but I've been wanting to go direct the with DH patch. If stereo wasn't an option, would you sum to mono or play through one amp? I'd hate to choose one because I love the mix of the two together!
Dude this sounds great!! I recently moved back to the stomp from iridium. And had this patch I can’t for the life of me get it to sound this good!
Why the move from Iridium?
Good switch to the Juliana! I have a dyno-my-roto for that lush tri-chorus sound but then an emperor for the subtle stuff.
NICE BRO!!!! Always love your pedal board walkthroughs.
