That Pedal Show – Balancing Dynamics With Clean & Drive Sounds Into Big & Little Amps
Показать описание
Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
In this episode we discuss the massive subject of balancing clean and dirty sounds in terms of volume and feel. It’s really all about gain structure and amp headroom – topics that we’ve touched on in many videos to date because they are absolutely fundamental to electric guitar tone.
We use a Marshall Class 5 combo and a 1987x half stack – 5 and 50-watt amps respectively to – to help illustrate the concepts discussed, hopefully offering some useful advice and pointers along the way. Enjoy the episode!
