Just sold a bushel basket full of pedals, and a 90's vintage ADA MP-1 rack. Replaced it all with a Strymon Iridium modeler, a Strymon Riverside OD and a Eventide H9 that I just upgraded to Max. When playing live, I run the rig stereo thru a couple Tech 21 Power Engine 60's for stage monitors and direct to FOH. Couldn't be happier with the Iridium models , and with plenty of woodshedding time on the calendar am just beginning to scratch the surface of the capabilities of the amazing H9. The goal is to get amazing players like Tim to have to sound like me.

@Tim Pierce Guitar Every video you share makes my heart so happy to see the joy you get from playing guitar. This one is in my favorites now because I have the Dingbat board and PX-8 Plus setup too except I have only a Mondo power underneath and not an additional PP2, although I’ve considered it vs using output splitters. The presets and MIDI on the switcher are so valuable when you have so many different tones. Thanks for showing us your board and much love from CT!

Thank you Tim for showing us your pedal board because based on the video I was able to locate the type of loop switcher you use to put together my board. I had been looking for something like this and it will be perfect! Although not mentioned it in the video, for anyone else curious what it is, it appears to be a JOYO PXL-PRO or a similar version. They go for around $170 or less. The new version the PXL-LIVE also has midi and the capability to switch channels on your amp I guess. I’ll find out more when it arrives. Tim, I would love for you to show us how you connect to your iPad. I’m guessing that is with the Eventide? Cheers! 👍🏻🎸- Kurt

My dream pedalboard has to switch between flute, acoustic guitar and electric guitar. What a mess it becomes to interface between rack gear and the pedalboard. But I have it working, but still almost close! - Your board sounds killer. And looks very professional. Inspiring. I'm using Peavey 50/50 rack amp, Boss ES-5 switcher , Air-corp 500 mic preamp to the PB for the flute. An old Yamaha mixer to blend in my side chained (Superego+) guitar synth channel. And a host of my favorite pedals that are quite different (and some homemade) than your killer choices. Killer tone dude. Just awesome! My favorite pedals have to be my Deja-Vibe and the Strymon Volante. I need more and more midi stuff to control my Frankenstein. It never ends,,, thank God- I'd lose interest if it was finally done!

Thanks @Rick Beato for tuning me into your page, Tim. Subscribed! Question: so for your session work is it more common to print all your effects and the producer artist will run with that, or do you always print a dry mult as well? I've found a lot of people like to control all the (to borrow a term from Steve Lukather) "grease" themselves. I guess it really depends, eh? Anyways. Killer rig and killer playing and sound as always. Cheers!

I use modeling amps, so I get all time based effects from them. However, I prefer using a clean amp model with an OD pedal to get sweet bluesy low to medium gain tones, with the neck pickup on a Strat or Tele, similar to your sound in the opening jam here. My favorites are my Klon clones, my RC Booster clone, my Zendrive clone, and a TS clone. That's all I ever need.
@johnfoster42443 жыл бұрын
All those pedals and no compressor pedal of any kind. Amazing. He must be getting some natural compression by way of his technique, the output of the guitar, and the combo of the pedals and amps that gives it a natural squash and limiting factor; a soft knee approach that keeps it all smooth and tucked in the track properly.

The Stomp has amp and cab sims, loads of other features and costs around £400GBP. It's probably the closest thing to an updated M5 around at the moment, but it's different enough that I don't think it would hurt sales of an "HXFX mini" if Line 6 made one- effects only, 2-4 at a time maybe, with a send/return loop and MIDI.
