How to Play Ambient Guitar #1 - Ambient Guitar Swell Basics (Ambient Swells)

[@L3n0xhav0c]

He’s the bob ross of effects tutorials. Just happy and peaceful lessons.

[@keithwahrer2223]

totally

[@kanepour9691]

You are the ambient guitar dad I've never had.

[@03_anggerrangas3]

someone said there are two types of guitarist, the first one is the one who wanna be the fastest in the west, the second one is someone who play with feel, creativity, and sound that makes you comfortable. After see you i definitely choose to be the second one

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks so much!!!

[@stillphil]

Great point. Ray Gomez and Michael Landau are kinda BOTH types.

[@derpderpson8796]

Would sign that! Less IS more!

[@MisterKnobb]

Never limit yourself, learn as much as you can, i love hard/metal guitaring but there's a lot to learn from Ambient style...

[@03_anggerrangas3]

Mister Knobb yes of course it will be great if you have speed and feeling combined. I just didn't like the mindset "the faster you are the more great guitarist you've become", it's not that simple.

[@HummerPoint]

Sir Davos?

[@phillschneider5232]

xD jajajaja

[@Floydthefuckbag]

Orion. Onion. Coincidence?

[@ClaudiaSegoviano]

Илья Коленковский I DON'T THINK SO

[@rossdalrymple7022]

Floydthefuckbag you've made my shortlist for favourite screen name of all time. I'm sure this will be a huge honour for you.

[@blowuplikeafrog3700]

Grab your guitar and take that spoon of that fermented crab

[@이현재-w6h]

isn't he probably the most eloquent guitar tutor on youtube? I am like one minute into this video and just amazed by how well-spoken he is and stopped watching to write this comment.

[@jernie9384]

Yeah, usually there are tutorials without the real intention to teach or the typical meme infested poser shit on KZbin. Bill here is a real Exception and I'm a big fan of his work.

[@wjones284]

That pause, sensible chuckle and humble apology for his missed chord, while I'm riding out the goosebumps without a clue he was off

[@goryanhavefun]

Thanks!

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks very much for the support Ryan!!

[@metatron6127]

I've been listening to meditation music for a few years already, one day i found your videos, i´ve watched all the episodes and noticed that i had almost everything that´s needed to start playing ambient guitar myself , so i bought a couple of cheap pedals and put new pickups on my cheap guitar and let my mind fly away, Thank you very much for the lessons , i´m starting to explore a new realm of music

[@chordsoforion]

Great to hear you are starting down the path! If you have any suggestions for video topics, let me know.

[@purpleheartscott8553]

Chords Of Orion I have a boss me-80 which is a multi effects pedal. Ever heard of any success with these for ambient guitar? I’m more an acoustic guy but want to start venturing into electric that coincides with style I play on the acoustic (fingerstyle with lots of open strings and extended chords, some melodies.

[@miracles4u]

Used to play but haven't had a electric guitar in years. Used to. Have a boss multi effect pedal. Forget how much fun effects can be and totally forgot how.emotive the guitar can be. Very inspired, thank you.

[@MrUnstablepenguin]

Why was this channel missing from my life? I feel more chill just watching...

[@jeffrey.a.hanson]

Volume pedal is easily the most Underrated Pedal. It’s an amazing effect, but also lets you sit in the mix perfectly without affecting your gain.

[@missourinp1155]

I loved your review of the HOF2 x4.

[@johnkelly4237]

Wow! What a useful, instructive video! Thank you so much. I'm an old school folk/rock songwriter who has decided to get into electric guitar for rhythm and to develop new sounds/colors to record with, and I know a little , but not a lot, about electric guitar, so this video is the perfect starting point for someone like me. Your teaching technique is wonderful. I was pleased to know that in Lesson 18 you cover uses of the baritone guitar, as I just purchased an acoustic and will be purchasing an electric baritone quite soon. Your introduction to the electric baritone is very useful. I am looking forward to studying all of your lessons on ambient guitar in depth. Thank you for making such thoughtful lesson, really.

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks so much John!!

[@mr.cheezle5829]

Two years later and still teaching. Thanks Orion!

[@chordsoforion]

You are very welcome!!

[@ketju7036]

Besides your magnificent ambient guitar playing skills, what a gentle and clear voice you have. You should be a narrator as well.

[@chordsoforion]

+Karo Koskitanner Sorry I missed this! I actually do have somewhat of a training background in my "day job", so maybe that's what you are hearing from the voice... Thanks for checking out the video and commenting!

[@williamtrew5163]

Love the sound with the overdrive. It's more about texture than drive in this context.

[@reid1967]

Stumbled across this at work this morning, went out and bought some hardware at lunch, can't wait to get home now.

[@chordsoforion]

Have fun! :-)

[@reid1967]

I so did! thanks for this

[@worldofmiku]

One word for you Sir 'Fantastic.'

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks!!

[@EzyoMusic]

"Sorry for that chord" We don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents.

[@JK.Fraser]

wow, the Bob Ross of Guitar lessons! I'm subscribing :D

[@chordsoforion]

Yes, but he had better hair than me!! :-)

[@JK.Fraser]

And remember, there are mistakes, only HAPPY AMBIANCE!

[@PJmars100]

Joshua Fraser that’s funny and true... 👍😁

[@twelvepetaledlotus1721]

Joshua Fraser nailed it!

[@KC9UDX]

That compressor is phthalo blue, I'm pretty sure.

I love this, I play a Fender Bass VI. I have mostly played in post punk-ish bands when playing my bass, in the last 3 years, I have been on a journey of exploring ambient music, mostly threw modular synths, been have been thinking a lot about using my basses, mostly my Bass VI, so I'll be following a long.

[@kend6910]

One of the best beginner videos I have seen on how to start creating ambeint tones. Thank you!

[@leebrown143]

This is brilliant. I have found it hard to find good tutorials on this topic and style, but have to say these really are incredible and thank you so much for sharing.

[@mike1967sam]

Hi Mr "Orion" I've been watching your vids for a while now because of the whole ambient thing...I used to have just an MXR Carbon Copy and a Boss DD7 for a long time mostly playing Blues and rock n roll but then I bought the Boss DD 500 and a few more things and it opened up a whole new world to me...thinking of playing ambient music at gigs instead of just straight up rock and blues...

[@chordsoforion]

Excellent, and welcome aboard to the wonderful world of ambient guitar!

[@TimothyBussMusic]

Never thought of adding overdrive. Great idea!

[@clarkerobertson2764]

Regarding the necessity of a volume pedal, that actually depends on the proximity of the volume knob on your guitar. I can do ambient swells with my Strat by grabbing the knob with my pinky and working it. Phil Keaggy is a master at using the volume knob to that effect.

[@chordsoforion]

Good point - I use volume knob swells a good bit in addition to the volume pedal, and have another video that demonstrates one of the techniques that Keaggy used with Les Paul wiring. I kind of look at them as 2 different beasts though, in that you can position the volume pedal so that it does not affect your gain structure, unlike using a volume knob. Do you have any amp/effects recommendations for doing volume knob swells?

[@clarkerobertson2764]

@@chordsoforion No particular ones, but here's my normal setup: Strat -> Xotic XP Compressor -> Wampler Tunmus -> Wampler Plexi Drive -> vintage Boss DM2 Delay -> Dunlop Echoplex -> Xotic EP Booster -> TC Electronic Chorus+ (the old analog one) -> Strymon Flint -> Vox AC30HW2 with Celestion Greenbacks (GASP!). I assume your reference to the gain structure would be putting the volume pedal after overdrive/distortion devices.

[@WysteriaGuitar]

It simply cannot get any better than this...

[@andymcleod8276]

Would have loved this series 5 years ago. So helpful.

[@MikeTheEarGuy]

Thanks for the instruction. I will be getting a Fender ToneMaster Pro and a dunlop volume pedal for Christmas. Excited to try making Ambient music!

[@chordsoforion]

Nice and good fortune on your ambient guitar jouirney!

[@muhammadrezahaghiri]

I think it was the last year, I asked you about the simplest way to record ambient guitar. In that year, I learned a lot about how to record and play ambient guitar. In my opinion, compressor is required, because it helps dial a warm and sustained tone. I don't have a hardware compressor and what I use is "Fruity Compressor" from default FL Studio plugins. I usually put release on 2.5 secs to get a good, warm and sustained tone. Then, it helps me have the best delayed guitar sound I can ever have!

[@chordsoforion]

Excellent!!!

[@MrDaigoRiki]

Lotta things to learn here. I got the same volume pedal. :)

[@ThrashRebel]

Just found this. Thank you. I am trying to switch my style & start writing ambient music, the likes of David Sylvian. Thank you for this video. You video will be my first step in my transformation.

[@jasonbradley9456]

Thanks for the video, i'm an acoustic player of about 15 years looking to finally get into electric playing and haven't got a clue when it comes to effect pedals. Thanks very much.

[@chordsoforion]

You are very welcome!!!

[@jasonbradley9456]

Was wondering what your thoughts were on these digital multi effects pedals? I have been looking at individual vs multi effects and can't tell which would be better. I'm sensing the individual pedals would be easier to create more unique and sincere tones?

[@Broke.n.string]

So glad I found this video... can't wait to watch all your videos. Love that style of playing. Great teaching

[@boblonghurst5111]

The most interesting SWELL tutorial i've watched. Thank you for showing the four pedal set up and the best configuration to get the nicest sound possible. Cool.. wicked.

[@timgittar]

This is a good overview. Thank you. I hadn't thought of using the compressor in this capacity, but I like how it works with the transients and sustain.

[@chordsoforion]

timgittar Glad you found the video useful! I am a fairly recent convert to using compressors in creating ambient swells myself. It's really helped me out!

[@justusthedeep]

I'm glad my work gave me a raise, so I can afford all the pedals I'm gonna need for this. ❤️

[@chordsoforion]

Yes!!! :-)

[@AwakeAsJedi001]

Loving this. Very clear without all of the over-optional stuff that we can add later. Thanks for this one.

[@chordsoforion]

+AwakeAsJedi001 Thanks for letting me know you liked it. Much appreciated!!!!

[@AlexanderGartley]

This is an excellent breakdown of each pedal, showing what each does and how it affects the sound. I will be bookmarking this and sharing with others. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks for letting me know you liked the video! Also, let me know if you have suggestion for other "how to play ambient guitar" topics. Always interested in what might be useful for folks!

[@Odelot-p2j]

Love your videos, your approach, explaining to fine details are beyond measure

[@vazen33]

this is great! thanks for sharing mate! Definitely adding this to my playing!

[@ScottParker235]

just wanna say that i love your vids. you make them so happy, and easy to watch, and theyre really informative :)

[@chordsoforion]

+Scott Parker Thanks!!!!!!!

[@Tubefex]

Started programming the basic setup in the kemper. 40 minutes later, I'm still at 4:02 I think I was meditating just listening to the background reverb echoes :)

[@Guitarmon8]

Your voice is so soothing! If you don't already, you should make some guided meditation videos!

[@GREENBELLES]

Oh my gosh, I need a volume petal. I need it all

[@chordsoforion]

Yes - you DO need a volume pedal!

[@floydLmiller]

Looking into volume pedals, myself. I'm stuck in the weeds trying to decide on low impedance (e.g. 25K) vs high impedance (e.g. 250 K to 500K). Also the issue of linear vs log taper pot. I guess it comes down to finding a place to try out the options.

[@modularcuriosity]

Honestly, it's the most important pedal on my board. And not just for ambient music. The ability to always control the volume to the amp, which also controls the drive, is really important.

[@bluepedalsrock9271]

Did you wind up getting a volume pedal?

[@peacetrip5049]

Working exclusively in Logic All I have now is a Roland volume pedal that works with my keyboard controller Since all of my fix will be virtual can I include it?

[@chosenproductions.1]

Thanks from a delay, overdrive, swell guitarist. You've broken the method to put the tones together down, to a much better place for me. I've been looking for pure tone in the ambient style. Keep going bro!

[@chordsoforion]

+Dave Slater Thanks so much for letting me know you got some value out of the video. I've had a lot of fun doing this series, and have more episodes planned!

[@chosenproductions.1]

I'm a new subscriber, have viewed a few more of your lessons, and will come back. Thanks so much! You are appreciated man..

[@georgedavidla]

Thank you. I'm excited to learn ambient guitar. You are my first teacher!

[@davelanciani-dimaensionx]

Great series of videos. I've been a "Frippertronics" fan since the early 1980's, and I really like your basic and simple approach. Nice clear instruction and suggestions. And the video itself is very well produced.

[@chordsoforion]

+Dave Lanciani (Dimaension X) Frippertronics is where it's at and just in case you haven't seen it, episode #7 of this series focuses on Frippertronics. Thanks so much for letting me know you liked the video!!

[@XlouietheflyX]

I run my Little Alligator in the effects loop, after my EQ and noise suppressor. I even run a flanger ahead of it. I think with the distortion produced in the preamp this gives a signal compressed enough to not need a compressor. In terms of using the delay, the volume pedal, and the picking I found this video to be very relevant to my setup.

[@k2000kidd1]

Loved the video, not sure if youve seen Sling blade or contributed music to the film but the part where Carl goes to visit his father had almost exactly that same sequence

[@creationfounder3589]

Brilliant my brother. You have helped the world to free this war of government and greed politics and poverty from the alien invaders. Orion has awoken.

[@samlevine9639]

Wonderful work! I love what you do. I have some somewhat unrelated questions: 1. how important do you think it is to get good quality patch cables and instrument cables/is it worth dishing out a solid $100 for maybe 5-6 cables? what kinds do you get? 2. What do you do for a living? Are you a professional musician? teacher (private, at a school)? 3. What style did you originally learn on the guitar? Jazz, rock? 4. what are your all-time favorite pedals? most versatile, most unique, most useful, most inspiring, you know. Again, this channel is great!

[@chordsoforion]

Well, $100 / 5 = $20 per cable. That's pricey for a 6 inch patch cable, but pretty moderate for a 15 - 20 foot cable. As far as patch cables go, I use the inexpensive Planet Waves 3-pack. For main cables, I use an old Monster series S from the guitar to the effects, then a Planet Waves cable from effects to amp modeler. For the effects loop, I use a pair of Monster DJ series cables. They are great and you can find them on sale. I know I will sound heretical, however, I don't think that the super expensive cables make such a huge difference for my rig.

[@samlevine9639]

do you mean these something like these? reverb.com/item/865485-planet-waves-pw-cgtp-305-6-classic-series-patch-cables-3-pack

[@davehein1418]

Note that the Morley Little Alligator is designed to be in the effects loop of an amp; it has different impedance expectations than a standard volume pedal. When using in the signal chain ahead of the preamp you'll want a buffered pedal, or even just a dedicated buffer (which is what I use), in front of the Little Alligator -- without that buffer the pedal volume will be quite low.

[@chordsoforion]

I respectfully have to disagree. Morley indicates the the pedal is designed for both effects loops and front ending an amp: www.morleypedals.com/steve-vai-little-alligator-volume/. In addition, my Little Alligator does not reduce the volume when front ending any of my guitar amps. All that being said, I prefer to run it in the effects loop of my amp modeler, so I can use it after the amp and cab simulation blocks.

[@davehein1418]

​@@chordsoforion Thanks. And thanks for this series and all your videos; they are tremendously valuable and inspirational. I own and use and _love_ the Little Alligator. I think I should have provided a bit more info. My guitar has passive electronics (no active pickups, no preamp, no buffer); it provides a high impedance signal. The Little Alligator has input impedance of 25K. Volume pedals designed for passive instruments typically have 250K or even 500K impedance. My experience with the Little Alligator was that using it with my passive instrument and an unbuffered signal chain (no pedals, or all True Bypass pedals) dropped the signal gain, the volume, dramatically. When I put a buffered pedal, like just about any BOSS pedal, in the signal chain then the gain was back to the same level as it was without the Little Alligator. I ended up buying a small buffer box (Little Black Buffer from JHS Pedals) and using it just in front of the Little Alligator. I was surprised that was necessary, but after doing a lot of research I have some understanding of why it was so. In general, I think the impedance of the signal coming into the volume pedal needs to be lower than the rated input impedance of the pedal. As with most gear setups, YMMV. And none of the above should scare anyone away from the Little Alligator -- it is a noise free, very reliable volume pedal with a very useful 'minimum volume' control; highly recommended.

[@KKMDStyle]

I’m new to learning guitar... could you explain the line-up positioning of the volume pedal?

[@jamesfrancisco3130]

This is just lovely! So beautiful! Can't wait to try some of this in my music!

[@sarahhirsch8919]

Hello! I just wanted to thank you for making this series. It has been incredibly helpful! Thanks!

[@jimrogers7425]

This is what I've been looking for. I really enjoy your videos, but your taste in ambient guitar soundscapes is very enjoyable. I'm inspired to create again. Thank you so much!

[@chordsoforion]

Creating is where it's at!

[@rexturner8208]

Fantastic simplification, making for easy understanding. Thanks!

[@EricBinder7Corners]

Those of you looking for a more frugal option that takes up less real-estate on your pedal board can grab a Line 6 Echo Park pedal and use the swell setting. Very, very similar results. It's an auto-swell so you don't need to use a volume pedal.

[@lovaspillando]

Grettings from the rainy and cold region of Spain (Asturias). What I wass looking for! I am guitarrist, composser and producer and wants to make my music that ambient. Even if I love rock music I really enjoy playing that kind of music you tech on this videos. Thanks so much for your contribution to ambient. I am using an Eleven Rack with a FCB1010 as a MIDI feet control, and I can use the FX Loop of my Eleven to connect an pedaboard with an extra delay, acoustic simulator and and Digitech Harmony Man. I hope I can follow your videos with it. Thanks for all!

[@Kyle-xk4ke]

Absolute love zur videos man. Can't emphasize that enough

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks very much!

[@jeffreybabino8161]

Very happy to be able to watch your channel enjoying it very much your music is beautiful

That overdrive accentuates the overtones and undertones. Makes the notes feel more full.

[@motoki1]

Excellent production quality in sound and visuals

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks very much!!

[@alejandroalcalarodriguez]

If you have distorsion coming from the amp you can use the effects loop. Very informative video!!

[@hacerclic1020]

Thanks so much for doing this series. I'm a synth player, but your insights are helpful for that too.

[@chordsoforion]

You are welcome!

[@onsturicheitchaos8124]

Thanks a lot for these very usefull tips. I just bought the TC Electronic Flashback Looper and Arena and they just sound good. With the right settings you can do some sort of sound on sound layers that dissapear very slowly. Very good for ambient soundscapes. I'll check out this setting with a compression pedal and overdrive and see what it does to the sound. PS It also works fine with the arturia minibrute whit the ASDR all up.

[@sjsphotog]

Nice video. Very cool Carvin Alan Holdsworth (RIP) signature axe there. I have a DC135T myself. Looking forward to the lessons.

Thank you! It's always good to get a look in someone elses kitchen. Good tips! For a later video I would like to request an in depth tutoroal on making ambient music with an acoustic guitar/baritone. Cheers!

[@chordsoforion]

***** Great idea. I've got several episodes already planned and will add in some acoustic/baritone into the mix. Thanks!

[@chordsoforion]

Thanks so much for letting me know!

[@Aldoborzoni]

Loved it. Thank you. I'm finally getting my guitar out of the closet. I'll follow the whole series.

[@glennschuld]

Wow! This is going to be super fun!

[@ursbasteck]

I somehow never realized this is an actual thing, "Ambient Guitar" Nice ideas here! I'll add one for the post-production: look up _Paulstretch_. It's a tool to stretch soundfiles to whatever length you desire, creating beautiful textures in the process.

[@chordsoforion]

Whoa! Paulstretch looks really cool. Thanks for tip!

[@ursbasteck]

I believe the initial idea was to develop a new way to change tempo while preserving pitch and tone but then... it got a great life of its own. Here's one of mine, if I may :) 24 seconds turned into 2 minutes 50: soundcloud.com/purf/gitloop080-stretched01 You can get it as a plug-in for Audacity but the standalone offers much more crucial options

[@scatterbain1628]

all the things you apologise for are absolutely unnecessary! loving this channel can't believe I've only just found it

[@patrickfitzgerald2861]

I would add that if you are new to using effects, it might be a good idea to start with a multi-effects unit like the Mooer GE 100. For around $130 US you get a compressor, boosters/overdrives/distortions, 6 delays, 7 reverbs, expression/volume pedal, drum beats, 3 minute looper and more.

[@chordsoforion]

I agree. I personally like the Line 6 AMPLIFi FX100. You can get some really nice sounding ambient tones at a very affordable price point.

[@czarpaul01]

Your channel is amazing man. Streamed a bunch of stuff on Spotify, lovely

[@chrisharmony160]

can you use a multi effects pedal with a volume pedal to play ambient guitar?

[@chordsoforion]

I think that it may depend on how you are using the multi-effects pedal. if you are looking to it for delays and reverbs, then a volume pedal should work well by placing it between the guitar and the pedal. Obviously, it will vary from effects pedal to effects pedal.

[@chrisharmony160]

+Chords Of Orion what about the Zoom G1Xon pedal? I've been inspired by your videos and really would like to add in some ambient guitar in my music. its so beautiful! I just dont have alot of effects currently, so i was looking for an option that wont break my budget

[@chordsoforion]

Chris Harmony I've never tried the G1Xon, so can't say if it will work or not. I does have a built in expression pedal that be configured as a volume pedal, and it has 14 delays and reverbs, so I would expect you could get some spacey sounds out of it. If you do decide to get it, I would recommend trying it out first if you have a good music shop close by, or buy from an online site that has a good return policy, (like Musician's Friend), so you can easily send it back if you don't like it.

[@chrisharmony160]

+Chords Of Orion Thank you for your time Sir! I appreciate you and your videos :) you have beautiful music!!

[@chordsoforion]

Great lessons. My first guitar was a Stratocaster. After about a year of tinkering with it, I decided to learn on an acoustic first. Well, that was a lonnnng time ago and I never really got back to the electric.
