Now I'm Here - one take using AmpliTube 5

1:08 it's a kind of pinky magic

[@metallica-fan]

Thanks for doing this song! It is Queen’s longest played song on every concert since the Sheer Heart Attack Tour..

[@AlvinDesaKerenzYT]

from 1974 to 1986 never removed from setlist

[@metallica-fan]

@@AlvinDesaKerenzYT yep. Same as Bohemian Rhapsody. 1975-1986. Tie Your Mother Down also the same. 1977-1986.

[@metallica-fan]

@@e.s.domino nope, Seven Seas of Rhye was dropped after the Summer Gigs in 1976, before being revived back on for The Works Tour in 1984. It means it wasn’t played that long unlike Now I’m Here.

Nice job. I'm gonna have a go at this myself and have Amplitube 5 so would be interested to hear what the preset sounds like on something other than a red special (les paul/ SG etc).

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

There's a Red Special simulator pedal into the Brian May pack, so you can make your electric guitar sounding like a RS.

[@corneliuiftode1317]

If u can make a video explaining the differences between amps and Amplitube 5 will be very nice! Thx!

I'll do an AmpliTube 5 review soon. For the other questions I'm planning to make another Q&A Live Stream.

@@MarcoGDiMarco I mean height, is it any bigger or smaller then for example a regular Gibson or fender?

[@kongokongo2011]

Hii nice vid! Can I ask, how do u approach Brians playing in general? Do u want to be accurate as possible in terms of playing correct notes when covering Brian in general, or do u just try to play ur own style interpreted thru Brian?? Thanks .

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

The thing is...I am self taught and I learned to play guitar by watching Queen videos and listening to their records, so this is the only way I can play, it is actually my style.

[@kongokongo2011]

@@MarcoGDiMarco Thank you for replying !! :) Yes I understand what you mean! But, if you play for example Hammer to Fall, do you want to be note wise exactly like Bri, or do you not care if you dont have the right chords etc for some pieces of a song? :)))

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

A mistake it's a mistake and I don't care, especially during lives or with these "one take" videos. Speaking about solos: for some of them I tend to be 100% accurate to the record, because people want to hear them like that. For other ones I prefer to improvise, just like Brian...to keep the thing "fresh".

[@callejarvholm]

Is that a ce-1 clone on the drawer?

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

Good eyesight... ;)

[@marianogabriel9616]

It's real enough good using the amplitube interface, enough to replace real amps? should buy it? not convinced using only the software . Nice playing

[@MarcoGDiMarco]

AmpliTube was not made to replace real amps. It can replace real amps at home, in the studio and it could save you lots of money... Said that yes, it's a marvelous device...go for it. When at home I mainly use AmpliTube, on Tour I'm still using my "real" rig.

[@marianogabriel9616]

@@MarcoGDiMarco Thank you for answering ! Well i mean in the studio, not for tours lol. I was using THU Overloud, was more real than amplitube 4 and now i'm using 5. But sometimes we become very strict. I don't have the interface they sell. So i don't know if buy a vox valvetronix amp and mic or buy this interface to keep recording guitars. In studio you can sound like real amps or still far?
