Emilio Velasquez | Mini Pedalboard Rundown 2024

[@alexeevfrancoismendoza1891]

Loving the tone and guitar playing Emilio. Thanks for making this Video

[@emiliojvr]

Thanks man!!

[@IZZE76]

This is awesome!! I was just looking at your board on Facebook and I fell in love with your tones!! Keep up the good work loving these videos!!

[@emiliojvr]

This means so much man! Thanks a lot. Seriously!

[@albertizing]

Nice board and great layout. Not overly packed to the point that it’ll be a bit difficult to hit the buttons. Excellent choice of pedals too

[@emiliojvr]

Thanks man! Yeah it’s nice and light too. I can’t imagine carrying a big massive board around

[@acevoncruz]

Song title: A Little Fire - Victory Worship

[@PDH-g6k]

Woah! Great tone and love the functionality of it. Definitely made the most of that board🔥 I think this is my next board too

[@edward4670]

Great video Emilio, thanks for openly showing your settings too! keep making more videos!

[@emiliojvr]

Thank you so much man!! This means alot

[@alwaysrockn2009]

Sounds amazing. Super nice playing.

[@emiliojvr]

Thanks bro! I made a ton of mistake. But it’s all good 😂

[@robertalpha00]

Great tone, your board inspires me to set up mine!!!

[@benjaminkoskinen5835]

Love this small board and the tones you get out of the HxStomp. It really challenges me and my phosophie on how needed I've felt analog pedals to be for a truly good tone. You got a new follower here ✋🏼

[@emiliojvr]

Man..! Thank you so much ❤️

[@jesusalvarado8540]

Hey Emilio, great tone. Do you have a patch for your HX Stomp that is downloadable?

[@brendanjohnpugh]

Are you running these into the input the effects loop? Great video man

[@sayonharacalderon4521]

Cuando vuelves a sacar otro vídeo? El Black Rat como suena? Saludos desde España.

[@GunJCil]

Love the board

[@jackprice7828]

Nice board! I like how you're switching banks. I use to use the particle verb a lot until the dynamic hall came along. But it does take more DSP. Great approach with the delays. Interesting how you put an EQ between the amp and cab.

[@emiliojvr]

Thanks man! I really don't use that EQ anymore. But it was nice for a while lol

[@MikeJBlues]

Sounds awsome. Are you effects to input or effects loop

[@miltonalmonte7126]

Great sound

[@theGaroudini]

already a fan here

[@emiliojvr]

Dude this means so much!!

[@carlosbarraza198]

Tone is 🔥 Nice work!

[@emiliojvr]

My man! I appreciate it

[@ethannotestine2335]

Killer chops bro

[@julienmarie7870]

Hi! How did you plugged both expression pedal and a 2 button control switch at the same time without midi ? I thought it was imposible with the simple TRS input of the HX stomp

[@TH1NB0Y]

Looks as though the Dunlop pedal is only functioning as a volume pedal. However, I know the DL4 Mkii can run a single foot switch and expression with a splitter. So I’m sure the stomp could too.

[@mahinesss]

because he’s using it as a volume and plug it in into de fx loop with all the pedals

[@collinjohnson8402]

great job with the video and your pedalboard setup! I run a very similar setup with a small board built around the HX Stomp :) On your stereo IR block, do you put a small delay on one of the IR cabs to get more stereo spread or to avoid phasing issues?

[@emiliojvr]

I did have a delay at first, but It was drowning me in the mix when I played live. So now I just spread the IRs left and right.

[@emiliojvr]

And small Stomp boards are the best haha

[@averageroadie6487]

What power supply are you using that will run the HX Stomp?

[@Zach-Rosicka]

Great tones and board! Well done, young Jedi🫡🚀

[@ferramirez4570]

Nice Board and Nice Tone!

[@marq.branco5978]

thats a really nice board right there!

[@emiliojvr]

Thanks man! The size is perfect and it can do it all

[@idontkno831]

Hi, that worship tone is really incredible and tasty, where did you get the IR´s

[@AlexandreLimaGuitar]

Great pedalboard , great sound !

[@kevinsalas2716]

THIS!

[@miltonalmonte7126]

Need help on mine so far I have helix line 6 floor and H-90 I had the tonex but for some strange reason I sent it back

[@AlecBourneMidiMadScientist]

How many presets are you running, what sort of switching have you enabled for the drive pedals or are these purely analog tap dancing to engage ?

[@BlastinGuitars]

Great video, emilio! How do you control ur overall volume if ur ch volume is max and ur master @ 8.2?

[@xyzman001]

Sounds great!

[@emiliojvr]

Thank you so much!

[@emanuelkleber]

very good! how to limit the use of remote banks?

[@emiliojvr]

Hey! What do you mean? How I have my banks setup?

[@emanuelkleber]

in HX, how are you configured to climb the banks and return to the start?

[@emiliojvr]

@@emanuelkleber You have to go to "COMMAND CENTER" and from there you can assign different tasks to the foot switches.

[@emanuelkleber]

@@emiliojvr Yes! I use the command center to configure snapshots. Thank you very much bro, make more videos

[@emiliojvr]

@@emanuelkleber I will try to get one out maybe once a week. Work is pretty crazy, but I hope I can do it lol

[@will-dc8jk]

thanks for the video! what gretsch model is that?

[@Keven_Ortiz]

Hermano! Sick tones bro 😂

[@emiliojvr]

Gracias bro!

[@AsaphAce]

particle verb is underrated! Used it a lot with my good ole Line 6 M9

[@emiliojvr]

Yea man, it’s fantastic

[@kshiver18]

I loved dialing in your tones on my HX Stomp. I also have a Morning Glory so it was easy to dial it in. One question: how do you use the compressor? Is it always on or just used in certain situations?

[@emiliojvr]

Sweet!! Glad you were able to snag a few ideas. Yeah, I keep it always on.

[@trevorstine5732]

Are you using a split signal for LR out of the headphone output for recording/ foh?

[@rianelliott1]

Well done! Lots of great tone from such a small board. Do you ever help folks out who are trying to dial in their tones who aren’t as experienced?

[@emiliojvr]

Hey man! Would love to help you out! Do you wanna connect?

[@emiliojvr]

@rianelliot1 Can you send direct messages through here? Lol

[@griffinwilliams1044]

Love the board! Great tones. I'm running a similar setup. Do you set your input at inst or line level? I have mine at line but I have to max out the channel drive on my stereo amps to get them to edge of breakup.

[@emiliojvr]

Oh interesting… I think I run mine at instant? I’ve tried both and can’t really tell the difference.

[@jonathanalvarado2657]

Emilio, did you purchase the clips for the pedals or did you secure them with duo lock? Love your set up!!

[@emiliojvr]

@@jonathanalvarado2657 i had a few clips left over and used double sided tape 😂😂

[@DavideRuggerini]

we have the same guitar with the same mods! How do you power the pedalboard?

[@chriskim430]

I have a similar setup with the stomp, morning glory, and kilt but your tones sounds so much better haha. What’s your favorite/go-to reverb in the stomp?

[@emiliojvr]

Yeah, those are my favorite pedals ever. It's the sounds I hear in my head. For dryer tones: Dynamic Room Worship Tones: Glitz + Particle

[@chriskim430]

@@emiliojvrI see I’ll try those out! I have a problem with sounds getting a bit too muddy at high gain stages

[@emiliojvr]

@@chriskim430 Do you run your wet effects post amp? Maybe reduce the decay?

[@chriskim430]

@@emiliojvr I do run my wet effects after but after seeing your settings I def set the mix and decay too high

[@Whydyoucare]

Super nice, which guitarists make up your most significant influences?

[@emiliojvr]

Man… that’s the hardest question. I love people like SRV, to salsa players, all the way to worship guitar players. Too many to count 😂.

[@Whydyoucare]

Awesome hahaha @@emiliojvr

[@glennpamindanan4080]

Wow super nice! I want to try similar setup! Would you share your Stomp preset? Or is it for sale?

[@emiliojvr]

Send me your email!!

[@hugowasalreadytaken]

hey man, i love the playing. I was wondering what mods you did to your Gretsch G5425. I have it myself, and am looking for an upgrade of an already pretty great guitar

[@emiliojvr]

It's a great guitar bro! The size is perfect, and playability was great off the bat. - Replaced the wiring with some old Gibson stuff my guitar tech had laying around. - Replaced the stock capacitors for .022 to allow more clarity, it also keeps the bass but allows more treble in. - Replaced the stock pickups for some Blacktop Filtertrons (balanced them and setup the height) - And of course gave it a good setup. It's fast, bassy and BRIGHT. OH MY it can be bright.

[@abrahamkinard803]

is there something different about incorporating real pedals into a multifx unit. cause im torn between getting pedals or either getting a stomp. How come you dont use the drives that are built in the stomp. just not your cup of tea? thank you so much!!! great video!

[@emiliojvr]

Hey man! I think for me, these pedals have a very specific sound. But the main reason I have analog pedals is how easy it is to change settings + it frees up space on my Stomp so I can use high DSP wet effects.

[@abrahamkinard803]

Wow. Thank you for that! I think the best option is to take some inspiration from your rig! great tone! @@emiliojvr

[@abrahamkinard803]

earned a sub too!

[@calebhurley6195]

I love this sound ! I have a couple questions could we email or something??

[@bryancoyle953]

Are u running into a DI or are u running trs into xlr?

[@reiis2541]

What are the measurements of the pedalboard?

[@ivanbustillo8128]

Are you able to build a sound like the one in Praise by Elvation worship with that pedalboard? Awesome video btw 🎉

[@emiliojvr]

I usually just use a chorus effect for that

[@emiliojvr]

Thank you so much!!

[@kevinsalas2716]

I just have this question in my mind whilst watching this video. Those tones, are those what you are using everytime and just kinda tweak the delay, reverb and OD gains depending on the song?

[@emiliojvr]

Great question!! I never tweak my wet effects. I might close the “CUT” on the amps just a little if I’m playing a single coil guitar. But it everything else stays the same.

[@kevinsalas2716]

@@emiliojvr Man, that's inspiring. I always want to have a versatile tone by having less gear. Thanks a lot.

[@kevinsalas2716]

​​@@emiliojvr If you don't mind, I have another question. The Kilt, Rat and Morning Glory, are those your only drives? You're not using another drive from the stomp?

[@emiliojvr]

@@kevinsalas2716 Yeah! That's it. What I do I just stack them if I really need to cut through the mix. All of these have a similar clipping, so the complement each other. Also, if I need a fuzz tone I just run my RAT hotter.

[@emiliojvr]

@@kevinsalas2716 KEEP THE QUESTIONS COMING! I'm here to help haha

[@CLUBNO.33]

amazinggg video and souuund bro, and what is the t shirt brand that you are using?

[@emiliojvr]

Thanks a lot!! And not sure… 😂 I think I got it as a gift. Maybe Banana Republic?

[@kimsalas6890]

Your wet effects are after the amps. Is it a personal preference? Have you considered putting them before? Can I know why? Your response means a lot to me.

[@emiliojvr]

Hey man! Yeah, personal preference. I find that it sounds cleaner and get a clearer "dry" sound before the wets. The only thing I do like, is putting my chorus effect before everything.

[@kimsalas6890]

@@emiliojvr Before, I've been putting my wets before my amp sims and spent a lot of time doing some research why am not able to get a pingpong sound and then found out that putting the wets before translates the signal into mono. I watched this video several times and a shame that I just noticed that your wets are before the IR blocks. Now, I have my wets after the amp but before the cabs and I won't look back.

[@nathanbarnett225]

So what are your stages of overdrive. Is it Mg stage 1, Kilt Stage 2, and then do you stack them? Thanks!

[@emiliojvr]

I go heavy to light gain. Rat > Kilt > MG. And I boost the Rat and Kilt with the MG

[@nathanbarnett225]

I appreciate the reply

[@sladaz1]

Broo how did you set a range of presets from 1 to 3 in you footswitch 4? That just blow mi mind

[@AlecBourneMidiMadScientist]

Command center, you can do this easily with hxcommands

[@felipemaster.93]

Perfect 😉

[@hexlovesness89]

How did you make the switch cycle through 3 banks on the stomp?

[@emiliojvr]

If you go to the "Command center" you can set it up there.

[@wilkensjean9374]

Hey what cables are you using

[@khristomasino4109]

Are you running lambertron pickups or stock on the guitar!? Thanks in advance!

[@emiliojvr]

Hey! I upgraded to the Blacktop Filtertrons

[@PlanesandCars]

Great tone! I'll copy it as my baseline. Is it the same setting you are using for the In Jesus Name video?

[@kumemaki1121]

Could you tell me the name of this pedalboard？

[@emiliojvr]

Temple Audio Solo 18!

[@jonathanalvarado2657]

What do you use for delays?

[@kevinsalas2716]

is the /13 amp you are using more of a VOX or Fender style?

[@emiliojvr]

Hey Kevin! It's both.. VOX and Fender

[@kevinsalas2716]

Do you go direct to FOH?

[@pavelpaku6807]

Do you think the XR irs sound better without any low and high cut?

[@emiliojvr]

Hey! It depends on the IRS... I think a the once I picked out sounded more "open" that way. It also made the amp a little more unpredictable, similar to the real thing!

[@pavelpaku6807]

​@@emiliojvr ok thanks, and what is for eq in your preset between amp and irs?

[@guitarramissao]

Que som bom cara!

[@emiliojvr]

Muito obrigado!!!

What power supply?
