???????? Also love the TDI zip folder sitting on your desktop. Have one myself, doing a little tuning??
any advice on what chords to pick for this? the stuff you were playing is so beautiful
Great stuff!! However I’d rather use this style than “high end” petals that are $249+ just for one, when you can acquire some sweet sounds with GB + some EQ and reverb and delay settings. Plus, different pickups produce different tones as well.
Anyone tried this on iPad?
Wow great tip
You got the html version of GB ? Use your MacBook ???? and a keyboard ???? and get cheap Strawberry ???? and Electri6city software. Realistic as can be. $300.
omg so beatiful
awesome !
very cool sounds with GB.Is that a Carvin Alan Holdsworth you're playing? I haven't seen one of those in a very long time. I'm going to try to find those sounds with my mac. Rich and full with lots of space. I don't know who hammock is.
Just to confirm others concern – nice video but Garageband does not have Dream Canyon
Great lesson again.. thank you so much!
Can you do one for shoegaze-type vocals?
Love it, thanks man!
I’ve been a fan of Hammock for many years now and am glad I found your video! I’ve been wanting that sustained soft reverb tone for awhile now so thanks a ton man!
Can i get this sound on iPhone? I don't have Mac:(
Lost me the minute you asked to open DREAM CANYON.
beer optional? i think not!
This is the most creative thing I've ever seen.
Thank you that is wonderful! This is so nice I finally have the answer I was looking for. Thank you thank you!!! If I can ever repay for all your generous information and knowledge let me know what I can do for you! I can now sit back relax and make my own ambient music!
For non Logic users, there's a similar preset in Garageband called "cascade" in the "experimental guitar" section.
Just watch where his other presets are, & play around/experiment on your own.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
thank, is there any way you can do this tutorial on logic pro? I have guitar band 11 and there's no dream canyon
great tutorial, can you do the same with REAL gear? just to compare the "cheap" GarageBand effects vs the Real Pedals effects? I mean the dreamy sound on real gear sounds better?
is this software free?
