His creative process is really fascinating, i love this guy (and Ben too of course)

[@paulmurph]

I was soo hoping he was going to say what pedal he uses 😅😅😅

[@1MrJack1]

Same, however, he's correct with his reply. It doesn't matter what the pedal is as there are loads of pedals that can do a root note + a 5th + 3rd or even just root note + 5th to create a power chord.

[@paulmurph]

@@1MrJack1 yea, but my experience with them they never quite track right, but that might be a a fault on my part, gona try using my pitch fork or my boss ps-6 before my pog 2 instead of after

[@keatonrobinson2970]

@@paulmurph Honestly he might be using his Quad Cortex to separate the input signal and process them each at a different pitch interval, might help with the tracking!

[@pallobomba]

Such an interesting interview, not typical cliches

[@MattieBennett]

If anyone is interested you can do harmonic layering with an Electro Harmonix POG 2. 🤓

[@fixxxerkanji4233]

Isnt the POG2 only octaves?

[@MattieBennett]

@@fixxxerkanji4233 Yeah, you’re right. I was confused! A Digitech Whammy would be better.

[@fixxxerkanji4233]

2:08 a blood hands reference?

[@orbitWZ]

yeah i instantly thought that too haha
