Rick Beato At That Pedal Show! [Recording Guitar Tips, Producing & More]

[@RickBeato]

It was such an honor to be on the show! Thanks so much guys🙏🏻

[@millmoormichael6630]

I know it’s a long shot but as a huge fan of both channels I’d love for you guys to check my band’s new single: The Quiet Calls. Song is called ’First Point of Aries’. Cheers and million thanks!

[@sampitomusic]

Thanks to Mick, Dan and you Rick for sharing your passion and knowledge. About the ability of music to reinvent itself, the impact of DAWs, analog vs digital : I encourage you to go watch Fred Again..'s Tiny Desk Concert. There's no guitar in it but it's the best of both worlds : real instruments playing, emotion, mastering digital tools, sound shaping and the driving pulse brought by the techno revolution.

[@keeponplaying2625]

Ty for sharing your experience(s) Rick. Inspiring, i will try to explore playing with less again. It's part of the AC/DC sound. Interesting!

[@gabemcmillan]

You rock Rick! Keep up the great work!

[@th0r904]

Rick is the best! I watch as many of his videos as I can. I cannot put them down. Very rare for KZbin!

[@krismerwood1]

I’m recently becoming aware of Mick’s talent as an interviewer. It’s a joy to watch!

[@christovammatheus5208]

Exactly!

[@mikedr1549]

His experience with the guitar magazine serves him well for sure.

[@billgreen3629]

Watch his interview with Joe B if you haven’t seen it.

[@ThatPedalShow]

Thank you kindly!

[@emdblues]

certainly a better interviewer than a guitar player 😂

[@kerryewen3624]

I’m 62 years old , started playing 6 years ago and recording in the last 4 years. My garage is now a music studio. I am super appreciative of the knowledge you guys and Rick bring to us . I recently found my tone that I have been trying to find for years , ( Mentioned in this video) Turn the gain down ! . Thanks so much for what you do .

[@tinandgonic3927]

Own studio space is incredible. You're living the dream mate!

[@mikedr1549]

Rick's knowledge just flows out of him so effortlessly. I could listen to him for hours.

[@savagecycles]

seeing dan and mick so star struck being in the room with rick just made my morning! great video guys

[@pedalgazer7109]

Oh my GOD this is a musical, informational, powerhouse all Star team! I've learned so much about pedals and gear from TPS, and so much about theory and production from Beato- I don't think you guys really get how much so many of us have benefitted from your collective knowledge, teaching, and insights!!!!

[@brentporter9324]

When I saw Rick on Anderton's with Lee, I had my fingers crossed this collaboration was going to happen. This is such a great meeting of the minds from different perspectives of the guitar world. Thanks all for arranging this.

[@gejskelly]

This is like watching the Avengers, we just need Captain Anderton, Danish Pete, Paul Davids, 5 Watt Keith, Jeff McErlain, and Corey Congilio to defeat the evil Algo-Rhythm and save KZbin

The man's a genius... Figuring out Carlton at fourteen is beyond mind boggling... When I was fourteen I was trying to master an F barre chord...

[@smelltheglove2038]

I kinda wish I didn’t learn barre chords first, I wish I had learned inversions first. To be fair, learning the “E” and “A” shape barre chord is a fantastic way to learn your root notes and you’re well on your way to understanding the fretboard.

[@StratsRUs]

​@Smell The Glove Learning the open chords and barre chords first is best for memorisation and placement/muscle memory. Then ideally revisiting them ,music-theoretically, later on and seeing the r,3,5 etc is a more satisfactory way of understanding the major scale and its magic. " Out of the emptiness. Salvation !! ". It's a Rock n Roll Creation.

[@EzyoMusic]

I think I was closer to 17 when I actually went in and tackled F barre. When I look back at it, the song I was learning at the time might not even use the full F barre. Still, I learned it because it felt like the right time to do it. Nowadays I "Hendrix" it most of the time.

[@jeffwithajay42]

When I was 14 I was just figuring out where Dad hid his special magazines!

[@The_Rude_French_Canadian]

Well to be fair, he took lessons 6 months after starting playing from a jazz musician on his paper route that owned a Music Store and his first electric was a Gibson Les Paul 😂 those things help lol

[@SquareWaveSymphonies]

This is a very inspiring talk. I am about to turn 33, next week, I have a Master's degree in philosophy and I am in the final stages of writing my doctrate. Just recently, I decided that I want to do something completely different and study Audio Engineering, once I finished my Phd. This video seriously gives me hope for my future. ❤

[@smelltheglove2038]

Not trying to start a fight, I just don’t talk to many philosophy PhDs. Over the past few years in the US our government has been talking about having blue collar net tax payers such as myself pay for college graduates student loans…. Since you’re a philosophy doctor, do you think this is ethical? I mean, on its face it’s unfair, that’s obvious. Again, not trying to talk shit or anything, just like to get your viewpoint.

[@DetroitWrecker666]

Why not? First degree and PhD is COMPLETELY useless. May as well go ahead and get another completely useless degree. Then you can become an untalented, useless person and drag on the economy like the majority of your generation.

[@bbdeffect]

@@smelltheglove2038 Why should I have to pay for ethanol subsidies or bailing out people who choose to live in hurricane zones? Because we live in a society. Having young people with less debt to worry about is good for the economy in the long run because there is more freedom of movement from one job to another and entrepreneurship. Same is true of healthcare not tied to employer.

[@smelltheglove2038]

@@bbdeffect I don’t think we should have to do any of the things you mention. However, people that get hit with hurricanes usually have home owners insurance… most states it’s a law. Having lived in Va. Beach while my father was forced to move into the area because he was in the navy, and having lived through many hurricanes, I can say leaving the east coast of the United States un-settled is an asinine idea. It’s just as asinine as comparing a force of nature to people who signed a contractual agreement to repay a loan, then forcing those who didn’t sign that contract to pay for it. Economics aside, how is it ethical to force someone to pay for a contract that you signed and they didn’t. Also, if college was worth it, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation. If it was such a good investment, the person who went to college shouldn’t have any issue paying back said loan. As it stands now, if your education doesn’t get you job where you make enough to pay back the loan, you simply wasted time and resources. Your want to go to college is taking food out of my kids mouths. I took out a loan for my work truck as a young man. Since it’s bad for young people to be saddled in debt, and since my work truck is an investment for my future and helps the community by getting me to peoples homes to repair their heating and air, should I get tax payers to pay my loan too?

I live in Philly and used to hang out with him and the fellas from Dr. Dog. Something happened around 2012 and apparently I was too conservative to hang out anymore. Sad. Edit to add: I never changed, I’m still the same punk rocker I was in 1995. My views and opinions never changed. I’m an anarchist and think the government shouldn’t exist at all. Apparently that makes me a conservative today. The problems started when I posted a picture of Che Guevara after the people got a hold of him on Instagram. I was upset that people were holding that authoritarian commie up as some freedom fighter…. Yeah, freedom fighter, he fought against freedom.

Haven't wished I was in the same room as this recording in a long time. Much love you guys for capturing this... Rick Beato?! His words are golden tidbits to my ears. Such a great character and one I'd love to meet, along with you two! The stories I'd ask about... Cheers.

[@ndaddy]

I was happy to hear your adulation for Beato's contribution via his interviews with important musicians. Case in point, his interview with Metheny is quite possibly the most probing and insightful without drifting dangerously into silly fandom. I agree: Beato has elevated KZbin as a valid medium for music journalism, and the work will stand as a sought after resource for music lovers for a very long time.

[@joshjamesuk]

I knew as soon as I saw Ricks interview on Andertons that he’d probably be making an appearance here as well. This is great!

[@dalezjc]

Great video guys! Rick is obviously one of the most knowledgeable and experienced music educator on KZbin today, and it was a joy to see you guys interview him. It was weird, and understandable to see Mick's nervousness in playing for Rick, as I'm sure Mick was looking at him, not as an educator, but as a producer in that moment! Good stuff!

[@davidsummerville351]

[@muuhn]

[@martincaz7772]

OMG Rick is everywhere nowadays! Well deserved. The ubiquous youtube god.

[@Youtubemademeaddahandle]

Well, I guess that describes my problem. I play with a tone generated in isolation for playing in isolation to an audience of one. My wife is often in earshot but is not discerning (or at lest not commenting). So, I am grateful she's not a "fan" because that frees me to progress. I amend my tones to suit the genre when requested to play with others but, my preferred tone supports solo instrumental performance, primarily. I'm currently thrilled with my three amp setup - pedal board into a 12' SS amp and effects pedal through two 10" SS amps (in stereo). I tried to keep it simple but ended up with three delays two chorus types, two reverbs, one boost, one OD (either pedal or 12" amp) two EQ pedals, and two tuner (which disagree slightly), and some compression (with little attack). the result is a magnitude above what anything less can generate but, I'm not looking forward to dragging all that live. I'm tempted to us use a drum machine and no bass. Now, to perform live with that rig I cannot be "canned" myself. Most days I'm simply not up to my own standards. Live, for me is "alive" and not covering (even myself).

There’s an air of restraint during the whole episode… I really like Rick‘s stories and the fact that he‘s at TPS but I have the feeling of a format mismatch somehow: maybe it would’ve been better the other way round - the boys being interviewed by Rick.
