I'd pay money to go watch Edge do his sound checks.....

[@adamatincul2618]

Me too! There should be a Sound Check Show!

[@carlofederico]

Mister The Edge is like a rainbow: the colors of his guitar are infinite. These are the sounds that influenced my whole adolescence. Now I'm 46 and this guitar is ever in my mind. I love it

[@wellingtoncarvalho1649]

I love Edge song

[@tmseh]

That intro for Streets always gives me goosebumps.🤟😎

[@peterfalahee]

THE EDGE ... I was playing at a wedding about 20 years ago my dad was in the band too and he went to get a drink at the bar ... during the break and he came back to me and says I was just talking to the edges dad he loved your version of still haven’t found which I’d done earlier ... I met him later on had a quick chat .. very nice man the edges dad

The Edge is so huge that his guitar tech Dallas Schoo is more famous than half of the rock N roll guitarists in the world.

He is so different from everyone else. I guess that's why they call him the edge.

[@davidresch390]

[@nelsonx5326]

His guitar playing is very textural.

[@michaelscott2789]

These have been popping up on my timeline the last few days. In my head the rest of the music is playing and Bono is singing. Like this stuff😁

[@aujax1]

sounds great. a little chunkier, fuller sound than in the old days. a little more distortion or top boost. love it.

The Genius.😏🇦🇺

He could give a gig alone !

[@Duncanalan43]

This guy needs to seriously think about starting a band. I think he could go far 👍

[@jdm1039]

He is smart enough to realize U2 is such a powerhouse together he could never replicate their overall success alone. No break ups or drama, at least known to the public. They are a cohesive unit from day one until their last day as an active band.

They are doing the set list for which guitars and settings are saved for. Schoo was saving the presets and changing the presets to other songs. This is the Bradshaw Midi switching system it is the most known system as it uses midi ( light switching optical) to open the gates for audio signals.

[@tochirogonzalez14]

[@bryter00]

“The Edge is fine!”

[@747dashify]

could the tone be a little thin and sharp because the stadium/arena isn't filled with 20/30k meatbags that absorb higher frequencies? Maybe Joe Oherlihy sets the levels so that the tone is right for the show and not to appease the Utube experts watching a cell phone recording.

[@agusg.t.8950]

747dashify the camera sound man.

[@johnhayes7872]

Brother Chill... It all works out SOUND CHECK

[@rextillerson9117]

Edge’s live tone is always pretty “thin” because he cuts the bass and boosts the mids and high frequencies. In a live context, the goal is to be heard, not necessarily to have perfect tone.

[@jeremybnz]

To sit properly in a mix with other instruments you do need a bit more treble in your tone :)

[@drouleau]

@@rextillerson9117 Yeah, I saw the Joshua Tree tour in San Diego a few years back, and holy crap it was all treble. Sounded pretty bad to be honest, and they also played a bit sloppy. Been a U2 fan since the late 80's when I first heard them, but was kind of disappointed. Ah well.

[@shaunbarnett2972]

They actually missed an opportunity to sell tickets for their soundchecks.

[@stephansiegel1279]

2:50 moar guitars... !!!

[@dr.seward7466]

The reason why The Edge sounds different these days has nothing to do with his new equipment. It's all about tunning his guitars full step down, D instead of E, even in C# (New years day), because Bono's vocal range changed (sucked) a lot since 80'. No highs and no lows at all.

[@SuperSkylighter]

The Edge doesn’t own a single knife..

[@ChuckReyes]

... But he well performs with a few excellent axes... :)

[@tochirogonzalez14]

[@Philoyouknow]

Why is there so few people at this gig and why is bobo not singing

[@ruffxm]

Because it's not a gig moron. See the name of the post?

[@jefflogan334]

It'll definitely be treble-high without bodies in the stadium. Regardless, I have to assume he and everyone else are listening through IEM's anyway without a ton of concern about how front-of-house sounds. His rig is so complicated, I'm surprised there's not any youtube where shows are a complete disaster.

His new guitar rig sounds like crap. Needs to go back to his original sounds.

[@edge_bob]

sakamuras s Edge always went on about warmth in his tone. It's now stone cold dead.

[@benpayavis3167]

The problem is his signature Fender rig which is junk. I’ve seen the band a bunch of times. It’s the worst sounding rig he has ever used. It’s very noticeable “One” . He can fix the problem in 2 seconds. Just needs to have Dallas roll out the vintage VOX AC 30’s

[@workforce66]

sakamuras s sorry but you are a dummy and don't know what the edge's sound is all about, it is exactly about sharpness and alertness!

[@workforce66]

Ben Payavis4 thanks for educating us about what is junk, although you forgot about educating us about what is not junk. Any ideas how we can the through this?What should he have done instead and why did he not consult you in the first place??

[@workforce66]

Ben Payavis4 he still has his vox's. what is the problem?
