Deluge And Electric Guitar (Tutorial)

#deluge #tutorial #electronicmusic

Thanks for watching! Please let me know if you have comments or questions.

I made a mistake when explaining the chord sequence, the chords are as follows:
Bm (7-9-9-7-0-0),
D (and not C like I said in the video) (10-12-12-11-10-0),
A (5-7-7-6-5-0),
G (3-5-5-4-3-0)

I'm playing a 2009 MIM Fender Telecaster with a in-house Bigsby-type tremolo arm, and a 1970s Emperador Jazz bass.

Thanks again.

just writing to let you know that this video was one that convinced me to buy a deluge. thanks friend!

Another dope video! Haven't seen anyone else do something like this before. Keep the creative content coming!

[seniorbeatbox]

very cool.. i've done something similar except instead of guitar i've lined in a portable radio.. and then by adding some transposed notes you get a cool broken radio/tape sound

Very interesting ideas and execution Simon. Thanks. Lee

Nice! I don’t have a Deluge sadly (I’ve always wanted one) but I have the next best thing; Drambo on an iPad Pro, and plenty of guitars. Will definitely try this!

Wow, great video! Being able to use the Deluge as a sort of studio looper for guitar layering opens up a lot of possibilities for more textural guitar stuff. I also feel like you could use these chops and recording tricks to make a hell of a doom record. This is the first video to ever get me to GAS for the deluge a little, so well done (I think lol)!

What, this is awesome! I love running my guitar through DSP and lately have been doing a lot of analog step sequencing for weird stutter & arpeggiated effects

[Kevvywevvy]

Another brilliant technique, totally love the gated sound of your guitar, deffo got me thinking 🤔 Nice jam too. Great stuff, cheers

Oh boy, two years since the last videos. If you want do start again you can write me. Together the motivation is better. ;)

HI Simon, tried this, is good.
Also managed to expand your idea.
You can record the guitar to an audio track, as your playing thru the inl synth voice, at the same time.
Then load the audio track into your synth track, by changing the osc type to samp.
Means you can play with beat and baseline playing, you're not recording the audio from out or mix.
So you have the unprocessed guitar as an audio track.
Thanks for the idea.

thanks for sharing community guidelines :)

So it is not possible to record just the synth track, the one with the OSC set to IN L ? No option for the audio track except recording the entire output of the deluge ?

[southernmainesonicexperime]

Question for you. Can the deluge be used to send PC messages to a pedalboard? Could it switch effect setting for each part of a song as in send PCs to the pedals when parts change while in song mode? Been trying to find this info online, but struggling to get a real answer. Seems like it would be a great performance feature for completed tracks.

Just pushing buttons does not a musician make. There is no feeling no years of study and no finesse of execution.
