Axe-FX III Unboxing and Review Part 2/3 (Synyster Gates Cab Packs)

[@bubblebass8498]

That was probably the smoothest Afterlife cover I've ever seen. PLEASE do a lesson on how to play it, I've been stumped by it for so long now!

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

I probably will make a solo lesson... but it'll be exclusive to the Syn School. I already have buried alive lesson up there! So be sure to sign up! Its free!

[@olivervilo]

@@HectorTrejoMusicit’s 4 year later. But would you be able to point me to the Buried Alive in the Syn School?? I’m loving it and would love to see your tutorial. You nailed it like Syn!

[@ashtonschuler683]

@@oliverviloif you just google something along the lines of “hector trejo buried alive solo lesson” you can find the forum link where he posted it. Also a side note in case you’re not aware, he has a bunch of solo breakdown lessons for other a7x solos on there as well. Keep in mind they are longer videos though since he breaks down the theory behind the solos instead of just reading off some tabs. They are very good learning tools

[@LMC-xz6qh]

Holy shit. The tones sound identical to the originals. And the little girl was adorable! Lol amazing video

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Thank you!! And I know, I want her to become a guitarist one day!

[@yv2r]

Great job playing the afterlife solo!! Super clean and accurate. Looking forward to see more videos!!

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Thank you!!

[@denisleeroivillamiel6042]

Holy crap they actually turn your guitar tone into 99.9% Syn guitar tone? Looks like I know what i'm gonna be saving for next 😂

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Its a great unit!

[@doctor9551]

@@HectorTrejoMusic is the syn guitar worth it? I play acoustic for about 3 to 5 months and I want to also get into electric guitar I think theres limited numbers of syn guitars

[@scoopskiii]

Doctor I’m getting a syn guitar soon and I’ve heard nothing but good reviews about it

[@Shooter_ready556]

Doctor theyre sick guitars. I’ve got 3 of em personally and they all get nothing but compliments. Only complaint I have is if you don’t get a set up yearly they become a bitch to play

[@SilverTheGuitarist]

I love your channel. Been here since the collection video.

Thank you so much!!

[@RSW_HOBBIES]

Awesome! My son is 6 he loves my guitars. I have three SYN models

[@hehe1680]

I like hail to the king's intro, it sounds warmer than original track

[@EdSeith]

Sounds killer, Hector! Love the tone you dialed in for Buried Alive! Some of the distorted tones sound a little fizzy here - I'd back off some of the 10k+ on the EQ or use the low-pass on the cab to weed it out. Yes, I know you're still working on it :-) Crazy playing - it's amazing to see how much you've improved in even just a year. I miss being young.

[@redtoesmaster2931]

It's a tone pack he didnt dial it in

[@saltysaltymango9403]

redtoesmaster 29 it’s a cab pack, he did still have to dial in the amp settings

[@saltysaltymango9403]

Ed Seith syn’s tones are typically a bit fizzy isolated, but they cut thru a mix great!

[@EdSeith]

@@redtoesmaster2931 No, that's not true. It's a CAB PACK, just the cabinet IRs. You have to dial in the tone on the amp and effects yourself. I demo'd the cab pack when it first came out. There are no tone packs for Syn. Not official ones, anyway.

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Thank you so much!! And I'll take that into consideration!!

[@punditjudgement]

I love that you have like every possible color of the Syn Signature guitar haha

[@dsptnhugo1309]

In love ! 😍 hope we'll soon hear your own compositions with that sick tone ! 😁

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Well thank you! Excited to release more original music soon!

[@rsrain14]

Hopefully you will go in depth through the different tones and how to acquire the killer tones with the cab packs! Great videos!!!!

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

I'll probably do that in the future! Still learning this unit!

[@sirshlamoney4867]

Yo Hector I know you really like Syns guitar work but I’m curios about you thoughts on Matt’s vocals and Zackys guitar work

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

They're definitely very talented as well! They all mesh together super well!

[@Brizizaz]

Amazing video man

[@TheOldHunter24]

I'm really jelaous for two thing, first your axe fx, I want that little piece of heaven so baddd, two your skills I can only alternate picking and sweep (but not like you or Syn :C) you're are amazing!!!

Hey dude. Awesome video. I was wondering what effect you use for the beginning tapping part of the song “ the stage” ?

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

I think I had some chorus in there? But very light chorus

[@Sunny-dn1io]

Hey cool video! I know it's been 2 years but... are these ir's cabs on .syx or .wav? I need to know and I dont find any information related :c

[@jtsplosion5282]

What are cab packs

[@alistershisheesh4721]

How did you do that with hail to the king you didn’t even pick

[@chasebroughton7373]

Those were some strong ass hammer ons and some tight pull offs.

[@cesarbermeo4605]

Can I use cab packs (IR .wav?) on another audio processor?

[@ItachiUchiha-du9ub]

What are your chorus settings for the “the stage” ?? Close sounding to syn already!!!

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

I just kinda messed with it till I liked it! The secret is that its very minimal. Its more of a texture than a sound.

[@formynsane]

Did you buy the hellwin's amp cab pack or the tone matched from guitar stem tracks from the stage album?

[@kocoburg7]

Can you share your preset on axe-change with us? it would be magic for all the fans

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

It’s on my website! hectortrejomusic.com :)

[@kocoburg7]

@@HectorTrejoMusic I have been on the site, unfortunately it is paying..and expensive, Axe fx has set up Axe change precisely for users to share

[@Bloorgusgoorge]

So I’m confused do you buy these then hook them up to the axe fix and it gives you his tone?? ( also what amp you use) and can you use the axe Fx by itself or do you need a amp

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Great question! So pretty much, you buy the cab emulation. That's it. It is up to the user to determine which amp it is (Ed, a student of the SGS and expert on the Axe-FX, told me it was the 5150 100W red channel) and adjust the settings from there. You can hook this up to a speaker and it'd work similarly to an amp. I, on the other hand, don't own a speaker yet, so I just plug my Axe-FX directly into my laptop where I use Logic Pro to record!

[@adanoc]

@@HectorTrejoMusic i know its been a while but are you using the 5150 el34 or 6l6?

Since these Cab Packs are Impulse Responses, can you use an IR loader to use these, or do these only work with the AXE-FX equipment? Also nice video and playing.

Play sevenfold songs. Starts slow with a metronome and work up. Learn scales and how to sweep pick. No magic equation here buddy, just time and dedication

[@thekillerclown8497]

I believe ernie ball 10s

[@HectorTrejoMusic]

Most of your tone will come from the Axe FX and similar pickups to Syn's. Like if I run my Charvel through Syn's tone, it instantly sounds different.
