Bradford's Massive Praise and Worship Pedalboard Walk-Through

BEST COMMENT SO FAR haha

[@k3nshin814]

Hahaah😂

[@jedidiahthompson4000]

Yes, I've been waiting for this for years!

[@ogmakefirefiregood]

That pedal board set up cost as much as the Kemper, Helix, and Quad cortex combined.

[@TheBbtlegit]

Exactly its over kill.

[@John-e4p1x]

SOUNDS WAY BETTER TOO

[@AndrewRMontoya]

@@TheBbtlegit define overkill

[@TheBbtlegit]

@@John-e4p1x For the type of music he's doing it doesn't require a lot of presets Worship music is basically ambient tones. Are you telling me you can get a 100 different ambient tones. GTFOH.

[@stevedennis6733]

Dream Pedalboard Brad. I made my first P&W board in 1985 from an old school desk with a few Boss pedals velcroed on. In those days there were very few electric guitars in churches. I ran into an Orange 80W head and 4x12 cab! How things have changed. I have my ideal board now with many of the things you have.

[@nicolascolome7782]

One of the best pedalboard walk-through in KZbin! I'm not a worship guy buy I admire how much you work on your tone. Thanks por all the info across the video,!

[@rudals1281]

That's a massive pedalboard. Thanks for sharing your insights on these pedals. It's cool to see as someone who has some of these pedals but trying to finish a pedalboard.

[@taylornutt]

I am currently working on my 2nd pedalboard that I hope to eventually use at my church. These videos help me think out new ideas and what the rig needs versus what I used on my home pedalboard. I already have an Iridium and a tuner. I need to focus on power supply, 1981 DRV and Strymon Cloudburst to work out main sounds. Thanks.

[@omilionaudio]

Such a fun build 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@benjaminkoskinen5835]

Must have been a crazy task to conquer.😬Not wanna be that guy but the pedalboard need some more support in the upper row. Looks like the whole pedalboard is falling inward 🫣 Have yall been in contact to fix that problem?

[@omilionaudio]

@@benjaminkoskinen5835 yeah it was a v1 design that vertex had, but was fixed with their new v2 boards

[@benjaminkoskinen5835]

@@omilionaudio Okey, yeah I heard from the guy himself on his channel that their v1 didn't hold up too well. Didn't pick up that this board was from Vertex. Hopefully Bradford can get the v2 :D

[@omilionaudio]

@@benjaminkoskinen5835 yeah he got the board from vertex but I did the install. It could be fixed with a support leg!

Man! For God! This is amazing…

[@JonHoltParks]

Id love to see a full video on the zoia. I have one on my board too and it's amazing. I feel like everyone uses it for different purposes. It'd be cool to see your thought process behind your patches.

[@bmitchellmusic]

I walked thru most of my regular-use sounds. What else would you want to see?

[@derektavares485]

WT Zoia Presets?! lol@@bmitchellmusic

[@ivandeleon120]

That metal bridge is already bending. Might be a good idea to add a support in the middle.

[@cars.willie]

Yo I would love to see a video by you of just diving deep into the Echo System and all it can do and how you set it up.

[@BryanMorganGoogle]

Brad what does your typical Sunday usage for this look? Mastermind preset per song, and different sections of the song, or are you mostly using the loops manually in and out, or do you have more generic settings/gain stages on the Mastermind that you normally live on?

[@TheBbtlegit]

To me its no way he's using all of this. On a Sunday service. Trust me I play 20 songs when I do a gig and all I use is 4 presets on my Helix. That's all you need.

[@kodymiller1602]

I’m way out of shape to carry that board. That looks super heavy. The hinge is cool, I’ve not seen that before.

Where can I find the patch bay?

[@archiewilliams45]

those Mayer sounds make me smile

[@bmitchellmusic]

me too 🥰

[@jmattdoss360]

I'd love to see a video to assist those of us who are on a more minimalist budget. I have been acoustic player for years, but our church has need for electric player(s), so I'm considering making the jump in an attempt to meet that need. What would be your choice for budget-friendly guitar, and what are the 3, 4, 5 pedals that you would HAVE to have to get going.

[@bmitchellmusic]

You are watching a different-type of video here. This is really for informational and entertainment purposes haha Have you been following us for any amount of time tho? We bang the Line 6 drum and always suggest it. Not just cause we like it and make product for it but because it’s really the best stuff out there. What does budget mean tho? Very subjective. Pod Go is going to be the best and cheapest way to get a reliable and quality piece of gear. You start breaking down what you need for a rig and it can’t be beat at all.

[@calebwhitcraft1664]

Like Bradford said, budget is relative, but if you need an entry-level guitar that is still going to hold up for a bit, Squier's Classic Vibe series is great for the price, especially if you know someone who can set it up for you at a discount. You can find them used around here for 300 all day, sometimes 200 and under. I think they did a video tricking one out with a bunch of upgrades a while back.

[@metrocaptain]

That setup is crazy. I wouldn't have the first clue how to even operate it! How about a multi-effects pedal that does *most* of what you had going on there? Really, in worship you don't need 10 or 50 different sounds. A handful should work. Some recommendations for newbs that might want to play electric in worship?

[@bmitchellmusic]

Sure, at the root of it all a few sounds works. But I’m not content just making the same few sounds. I always try to do something extra that allows me to use the creativity God has instilled in me. And it’s become part of life’s work. If you feel great pairing with the 3-5 colors you got at your disposal that’s great! But there’s a whole lot more out there I’m looking to discover and utilize :) We cover a lot of different units here. Any of the L6 stuff will get you most of what it seeks you are after.

[@aleksandergrzybowski8899]

@metrocaptain get the HX Stomp, or even Pod Go if you are on tight budget. You can easily cover 99% of the common worship tones. Sure, you won't have crazy synths or multiple stacked delays, but you'll be fine. :)

[@TheBbtlegit]

Exactly thats what I said. This guy is acting like he's going on a world tour. Three presets will get the job done. Trust me I play 30 songs on a gig and have 4 presets on my Helix.

[@randym3982]

I don't see where I can subscribe? I don't know the official name of your channel either. Is it Bradford or worship tutorial? I've never seen a channel like this haha

[@BigdaddiZ]

When you flipped up the pedal board to show pedals underneath my mind was blown 😂

[@bmitchellmusic]

First 🪄✨

[@briankron1377]

The irony of spending thousands of dollars on a guitar pedalboard to worship a god that specifically told you to sell your possessions and give to the poor

[@tylerjames9626]

This is great! Would love to see a video on the routing options with amps/effect loops/modelers/audition pedals. It would also be cool to see more detail on how you control some of that with the PBC

[@lewisbeeman]

Wow. That is all. Just wow

[@Joshuaalan21]

Idea 💡 Browne Amplification comes out with a Bradford signature model Protein … and it’s the color of steak 🥩

[@bmitchellmusic]

That could either be gorgeous or hideous 😂

[@kristenrocksfrags8584]

This is a beautiful rig! Is there a way to use your switcher to control which side of your King of Tone your using? I just got the Duellist and the Gladio, and it would be cool to be able to have presets for each side and then both. I didn’t think I could do that since they aren’t midi controlled.

[@KingGodson316]

His king of tone has the four-cable mod from Analogman. Each side of the pedal has independent input and output jacks so you can run each side of the pedal into individual channels on the PBC.

[@robbarker9878]

I also had the dd20 AND DL4 circa 2006! I still have a rehoused dd20 on my portable board

[@bmitchellmusic]

I want to get a rehoused one myself!

[@allenalex2513]

With the current modelers out there like Helix, QC, etc. and their respective effects, do you think you would able to replicate your entire pedal board into a modeler given all the pedals and settings you have? Like if for some odd reason you weren't able to bring your pedal board, could you make/use an almost equivalent patch or is this where having a pedal board shines with all the extra things you can add?

[@John-e4p1x]

Yes, you can. But its way less fun, and the last 10% of character wont be there

[@isaachernandez3868]

You left off the Selah Quartz - $239, and whatever SKB case he is using. And the all-important power: a Strymon Zuma, and what looks like an Ojai and Ojai extension? But yes, a very nice set of tools for a good player and tone impresario! He knows what's good and how to use it to the best effect (!), which is why they have so many followers!

[@John-e4p1x]

Echosystem uses INCREDIBLY high quality components inside, thats why Empress gear always sounds better than everything...

[@mojo827]

I may have missed it in the comments but... how are you connecting (via midi) the Echosystem to the PBC? Could you provide specific details? Trying to figure this out for my board so any help would be appreciated, cheers.

[@worshiptutorials]

The Quartz converts 5-pin midi to 1/4’.

[@HeWhoHasRisen3500]

Everything you see here can be duplicated with 2 pedals: The Boss ME-80 and the Strymon Cloudburst. Attach a footswitch or expression pedal to the Cloudbusrt, and it's off to the races you go.

[@jordanguill361]

@Bradford Mitchell how do you stack your drives? Do you do KOT as level 1 then Protein as level 2? I’ve heard KILT is best just by itself. Just curious! I have KOT and JCaliber 45 caliber looking at adding Protein and debated whether or not to switch 45 for Kilt

[@guitarface88]

I don’t like big pedalboards anymore, I’d rather have a small simple one. Tbh to just play 4 songs on a sundays, it’s not worth it me.

[@bmitchellmusic]

I get it but I just like making creative and intentional sounds. It’s my job here on the channel and spills over into Sunday.

[@zachmarsh8999]

Can you please do a video on all your guitars? Everytime I see you in a video your playing a different one 😂😂

[@xtreamcubies911]

I have the same issue with my Dunlop Mini Pedal. I was debating if I should shoot some lubricant down into the rockers. Did you fix your squeaky pedal, ever since this video?

[@clintyoung9902]

So for those pedals with the "midi" label in your list, that are not readily accessible and not in the looper (e.g. the Pog), how are you turning it on/off? "MIDI" page on the RJM?

[@bmitchellmusic]

I program the sounds so I don’t need a button necessarily but I do have buttons for everything , yeah.

[@ZacharySaucier-u6e]

I could have sworn you used to run the cali76 post drives. or did I miss that explanation? tldr is it before or after your dribes

[@masasikaak]

Whatever is on the board , I don’t care. Let’s focus on playing.

[@MadDogCrawford]

Sooo.....when is the BadCat/Matchless dual amp Helix preset hitting the market?? 😁

[@worshiptutorials]

We weren’t really planning on that, but… Honestly there are so many combinations that we could make. It could be endless, ha.

[@MrLoganl17]

You keep saying feel but on my end it all souds the same😂 but it does sound really clean...

[@jessequinteros8515]

Are you running the oxboxes to your DAW in stereo outputs or are you running each oxbox mono out for more traditional stereo?

[@worshiptutorials]

We’re summing each one to mono. So it’s a stereo signal with one amp on each side.

[@jeffhogsten3803]

Is there a volume pedal. I saw one on a video for the cloudburst but couldn't tell what it was

[@eduardodonnet8985]

[@jframjams]

@@danielplaysvioli I have the DRV and Protein! I love boosting the DRV with either side of the Protein. Gives an amazing lead tone. But I see how the Kilt seems more versatile than the DRV. Tough call!

QC is not good. Sold your soul.

[@dvpeomar]

Great video, I love pedalboard, run throughs because a lot of the times I have questions to certain things and people who do pedalboard breakdowns answer them. I did have one question though, and this is basically just however you feel about the pedal but; how do you guys feel about the new universal audio Max do a compressor and preamp pedal? I’m torn between that one and the Cali 76 to buy.

[@TheGoodNews101]

I have found the Kilt sounds a lot like the Protein with both sides turned on but a tad clearer. Do you find the same thing?

[@oandrefelipe_]

[@elopez7692]

Blessings!! When the Tonex pedal capture?😅

[@yoli6413]

[@JoeyMorrison82]

Im the same way with the Browne Protein. When I use my fly rig its my only drive pedal. (SP Comp - Sub’n’Up mini - Protein - Volume - HX Stomp) And this is all I need to get through most thing I play at any given time. But I still love the Jackson Fuzz and TC Mojomojo which I have on my big board. Gives me a little more options and allows me to have some more fun with different tones.

[@calebwhitcraft1664]

I ended up with the Echosystem because of the two independent engines, I was leaning Nemesis because I LOVE SA's editing software (and I hate setting presets on Empress stuff, lol) but if you do seperate delays on Nemesis, it has to be the same engine, ie 2 tapes or 2 analogs. That's why I ended up Echosystem and yeah, sounds just top-notch. I'm still trying to figure out how I want to use my Zoia, I might have bit off more than I can chew there. I think I had in mind that I'd get CBA Mood or Microcosm sounds out of it more easily, and there are a few patches like that available on patchstorage, but to try to dial that in myself would require more time than I can even comprehend. I can see it being a good catch all for mod stuff, but I'm pretty happy with my mod section as is, I'm really just looking for spacey stereo washy reversey chirpy out of control nonsense stuff.

[@NoahRugani]

I've been looking all over to figure out how to assign either side of the protein to a loop like Bradford does in this video . . . does anyone know how to do this?

[@worshiptutorials]

Did you check the manual? They show you there. You also have to have a V2 but they’ve been out for a few years now. You have to adjust dipswitches inside the pedal.

do you have big sky presets for sale?

[@0xsilk]

The delay sound around 26:20 is that from the Big Sky?

[@bmitchellmusic]

I added the Echo System there.

[@beukems]

Do you have a gate? Or added in post? It’s dead silent!

[@bmitchellmusic]

well during the talking we typically mute the guitar audio just in case. but no gate. Suhr has a silent coil system that's pretty insane. That's in the guitar and it definitely helps with 60 cycle hum. But also good power (isolated power supplies - I use the Strymon stuff) and cabling done right (thank you Brian Omilion) are the big reasons why it's quiet too!

[@TonySongDMD]

How do you use selah quartz? What does it control?

[@landguitar]

Quartz runs the tempo, the "clock". Although the PBC can do midi timing, the Quartz is easier to have in reach for "on the fly" adjustments by tap tempo or even using the preset or tempo knob. Plus, you program presets on it with a pretty usable PC-based editor, and control it (ID the tempo preset per song) with the RJM PC editor as well. Very usable, dependable and effective for time based and even modulation effects!

[@mikemarino4242]

I didn't hear a lot of sounds that could be used for "worship?" Do you play at church? They're certainly paying you too much.

[@worshiptutorials]

Bradford is worth every penny 👌🏻

I see this is the first comment you’ve made on our channel. That tells me there’s a chance you don’t watch us much. No problem at all.

[@ElyVaz_]

Why POG after post drives instead of Pre?

I mentioned using it for auto-swells and I prefer swells after drive. But also it keeps the layer of octave more prominent. Gets pretty indistinguishable once drive is added after.

[@pronumeral1446]

Mark 10:15 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the Kingdom of God. 1 Timothy 16 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.

I am a professional, paid and hired musician. This is my job and these are my tools. A truck driver spends upwards of 6 figures on a semi truck. No one calls them rich. Also, Worship Tutorials is not a church. Your logic is also flawed by assuming I put my hope in wealth. No need to preach to me.

[@craigspicer9518]

That gravitas sound ❤… how would one get that in their helix?

[@worshiptutorials]

If you want the ramping tremolo sound, you can’t really get it in Helix. You basically have to map tremolo speed to an LFO, which Helix can’t do. You can get somewhat close with the stepped tremolo (I forget the actual name of it in Helix), but it’s not smooth like an LFO would be.
