Hello, it's the Devil here and in this video we're actually gonna play with amplitude.
2
We're inside my DAW, you can see this lower bar, it doesn't have all those sweet options.
3
gonna see how to actually sculpt the sound by adding uh
4
pedals uh changing the cabinet changing the amp adding effects to the bus
5
and to the master bus and all that sort of stuff
6
and then uh when we have a sound uh we're actually also gonna save it as a preset so yeah
7
and here's what it sounds like now we have a JCM 800 model here so it's the Brit 8000 here
8
on the amp selection section so it sounds like this
9
Excuse me, you can hear some picking sounds, I think, through my vocal microphone.
10
I have to pick lighter.
11
So, anyway, we have an amp here.
12
And of course, we can change the amp settings like this and get a different sound.
13
You know, just the...
14
Let's take all the middle off. So it sounds like...
15
Let's bring them back up.
16
yeah so now you can change your sound a bit by doing that but let's get to the
17
cabinet is that's the thing that will affect the most so as seen on the last video
18
about the interface we have this cabinet section here you can just click the cap you get here or
19
you can and well yeah uh let's change the whole cabinet so it sounds like this now
20
so what if we take the grit silver instead
21
so that's totally different all right and the thing what makes it different is the elements
22
so in here we have brit 75 speakers so we can change the speakers and these are
23
modeled after the most famous Celestian ones I think and then some other other stuff
24
and I'm not sure if you can bring you can actually bring your own like impulse responses in here but
25
let's change the other so it sounds like that let's change it to V3 let's change the other one so
26
uh let's take back the British 75 Change them to V30.
27
So the difference in sound is huge.
28
And you can change just the other one.
29
Now we can see like, oh yeah.
30
Okay, and then the other thing we can do is, now we sound like this.
31
So we can change the microphone placements.
32
And as you can hear, if we take them like to the edge of the element, so further away from the cone.
33
Totally different sound.
34
Bring them closer.
35
Bring that one.
36
Let's take that like further away from the cabinet.
37
And of course we are not hearing so much of that mic now.
38
All right then, what else can we do?
39
Just with these basic endings to sculpt our sound, we can take this microphone and change it to another one.
40
Yep, that's quite different when you compare it to this one.
41
And that is why the Shure S&M 57, as it is modeled by,
42
is so popular for those piercing
43
rock guitars and this one is 87 models and neumann i think then we have this uh room mics here
44
but yeah so if you if you want to uh get a sound
45
and you want you have like a artist you like
46
and you want to recreate some a sound they have the
47
first thing i would do is i would look into what amp
48
and what kind of elements they are using in their cabinet is those are the things that will
49
affect the most on the earlier part of the chain of course then we'll add some effects
50
and all that but these are the core of your sound so and we're just gonna
51
leave it like that now but we can check the this section here
52
so if we would like we could pan uh
53
that sure to the left side completely take even take the other one other mic out
54
So that is what we would have.
55
And then we could just put the 87 on the other side, so on the right, and we would have this.
56
Bring them a bit closer bone,
57
but still have like a little bit of width. Did it?
58
I wanna just...
59
It's like, ah, to it.
60
There we go.
61
Yep, we could bring up the room mics and we would get some
62
And we can actually change the whole room from here.
63
So let's hear how that sounds when we have the volume up.
64
Small studio.
65
Yeah, much less echo subway.
66
This should have a lot of, you know...
67
Yep.
68
Oh, it's clipping a bit, so... And that's bad.
69
But yeah, let's take it off.
70
We don't want that room in there, so...
71
All right.
72
And the last thing I will show about the cabinet thing is the ver.
73
So you can get really precise with it in here.
74
Take this one and just change the mic placement from here.
75
are we like dead center now there we go all right and of course you can also change the room mics
76
overheads all right uh let's get into the basic tricks so we have a one amp setup
77
and in here we have all these effect pedals
78
and we can just take one and drag it here
79
and let's do the basic thing that is we're gonna boost the JCM 800 with an
80
uh over scream overdrive pro
81
which is the tube screamer 808 i think uh let's take the tone a bit down
82
and a bit less overdrive we don't need that much
83
and now we can hear we have some hiss
84
so usually a good thing to have is a noise gate
85
you can actually bring it on this part of the chain because this part is limited to six pedals, I think.
86
So if you want to have more than six in front of the amp, you want to drag some here.
87
And the threshold, like, up there.
88
And now, what do we have?
89
That's what we have.
90
So without the screamer. With it.
91
Oh, that's the annoying pick sound again.
92
Well, yeah, so that's how we can tighten up the sound.
93
It's a pretty usual pick.
94
And now we could just try a different overdrive if we would like, just by when we have that chosen.
95
You just try a different one by clicking.
96
I think that's the Boss DS, you know.
97
Oh, actually overdrive.
98
We have the distortion here.
99
Let's hear how that sounds.
100
That's nasty.
101
Yeah, a lot of his.
102
So let's just keep the or scream.
103
Have our sound like.
104
Tone down a bit.
105
The over travels there.
106
What next?
107
Let's take some modulation.
108
So there's a whole lot of stuff in this AmpliTube Max package.
109
A lot of stuff here.
110
So let's take a phaser and put it after the over screen.
111
Oh, yeah.
112
So that's how a phaser sounds.
113
But yeah, it's as simple as that.
114
You just pick something, drag it there.
115
If it sounds good, yeah.
116
And you can always just click it off like that.
117
Or from here.
118
Then we have some like these expression pedals, volume, and then we have war pedals.
119
But of course, if you want to use them, you need to have a controller so and
120
that will be i will make a another video about
121
that how that works but let's take a wall here
122
and we have this order setting uh does it work yeah
123
so you can always uh play the
124
wall with I think most of these do have the auto setting.
125
Let's check.
126
This one actually don't.
127
But most of these do.
128
So if you want that wow sound, yeah, you can get it.
129
But of course, it's much more fun if you have a controller.
130
So that will be an upcoming video.
131
Let's keep it there for that video.
132
All right.
133
Next, let's go to the most amps nowadays you have something called the effects loop.
134
So let's put our time based effects like they usually do.
135
Let's put them here, there.
136
So a delay would be nice I think.
137
Let's find one.
138
Let's use a so this is a T-Rex replica.
139
Let's bring the repeats down.
140
There we go.
141
Bring the tempo down like 306 a little less echo
142
and let's take the volume down to 5 let's hear how it sounds now
143
All right, bring the volume up a bit.
144
Let's take the phaser off.
145
Alright.
146
Kinda like that.
147
So let's leave it there.
148
And of course you could...
149
So here, those are like put into this weird rock thingy.
150
And what else we could take there?
151
We could try like a chorus in there for fun.
152
So how would that sound?
153
A bit more.
154
Sounds good.
155
So let's leave that there. And yeah.
156
Of course, we can go and edit this from, you know, there.
157
you know click edit and then when we want out of this window we could click here and then edit
158
there we go and then we have this uh mixture here
159
so uh let's say we want a little bit of reverb and we want some plate
160
So we could take it in here, in the bus.
161
So that would be just after the cabinet.
162
Let's hear that.
163
Something like that.
164
Probably put a little...
165
Yeah, not that much.
166
Alright.
167
So now we have an effect in our bus also.
168
We can go and click this mixer again.
169
And let's see how it sounds if we take the volume down.
170
So what happens?
171
Yeah. So.
172
So everything goes down in volume.
173
All right.
174
And well, let's try this.
175
So I showed this on the interface studio but what happens when we click this?
176
We get a second cabinet. And here's the thing.
177
Now when we look at this that reverb is not affecting that cabinet at all.
178
And if we would like it to be affecting the whole sound, we would just drag it here.
179
Now, now we want to go, it's in the master insert.
180
So let's hear it now.
181
Oh, that was an ugly bend.
182
But yeah, so let's get it.
183
Let's take it back to one.
184
Alright, and let's for fun, let's put a compressor on the master insert.
185
There we go.
186
And that's like a Fairchild, I think.
187
Let's hear how that sounds.
188
doesn't do anything yet so let's bring up threshold
189
there we can see the meter is moving
190
so what it does is uh
191
if you don't know the basics of a compressor i suggest
192
you look it up i might make a video about it in the future but But for now, there's some resources on YouTube.
193
But it evens out the volume of my playing.
194
Spring up a bit more.
195
The volume.
196
Alright, let's go back to the arm, let's take a bit of the middle off.
197
Let's try that with the phaser.
198
Yeah, something like that.
199
But anyway, so what did we do here?
200
We added some effects to the front of the amp.
201
we can click them on off we have the amp we
202
can change the amp of course from here we have some stuff in the loop
203
on the amps effect loop and we change the cap we could do it again for fun let's try it
204
Let's check what we had in here.
205
So V30 and 75.
206
Alright, let's do that again.
207
So let's take the...
208
Come on, there we go.
209
Let's take the British 8000.
210
Yeah, so let's change this one to the V30.
211
So yeah, that's a totally different sound.
212
So these are the things I would mess up with the most,
213
you know, and like I explained the whole mic placement because now when we...
214
You can hear the difference immediately.
215
So get these in order for the sound you like and then I would start adding effects and
216
all this stuff in here.
217
But yeah, that's the basics here how to, you know, juggle around in this.
218
So yeah, here are all your effects pedals.
219
You can change the arms.
220
You can change the cap, all the stuff related to the cap, cabinet.
221
And here you have all your rack stuff.
222
And you can take this rack stuff also.
223
So you can just put it here also.
224
Like, or some...
225
So, let's not limit ourselves in that way.
226
And if you want to get rid of an effect, you can just remove it from there.
227
What else?
228
Can you actually, let's, can you take a...
229
Like a pitch shifter and put it here.
230
Well, goddamn you can.
231
You have it like this and edit it from here.
232
Yeah, it's for fun.
233
Let's see how that sounds like.
234
Might be awful.
235
Yeah.
236
Because I would have to, you know, Would it sound good with the C major?
237
Yeah, it would.
238
Well, good is subjective.
239
So, but let's take that off.
240
There we go.
241
So, we have our sound now, and we want to save it, so we can use it later.
242
Then we would go here and click this.
243
Aha, we get this little window.
244
And you can name it first.
245
Let's give it a name.
246
Amplitude video, I think.
247
Then we can choose the folder.
248
Like this.
249
That's pretty.
250
There we go.
251
Artist.
252
Well, me, the devil.
253
Song.
254
Yeah, you wish.
255
But yeah, you can, you have all this.
256
You can tag it pretty good.
257
Even insert a note.
258
Let's put it.
259
Dude.
260
instrument type, you know, metal solid body.
261
Yeah.
262
Pick up position, pick up type, hamburger.
263
All right.
264
Keywords enter keywords.
265
Yeah.
266
You can, you can do all this stuff.
267
Metal.
268
high gain i would say song part uh whole song i
269
mean the whole yeah you wish on i will never have
270
and then we could oh and then you save it there we go
271
and now it's in there pd so now we could just change the preset like that
272
and here we have a totally different setup
273
and we can go here and click that and there we go we have our sound back so yeah
274
I think that's it.
275
In the next video we're gonna start with building a setup with two amps,
276
maybe even three, and then I'll show how you can actually share them in the ToneNet. and how you can
277
let's get a bit more into that and how to download presets from there and yeah I think that's a
278
good video for the next one you know just
279
go a little bit deeper into these two things and then after that another video would probably be about the
280
midi controller which is uh actually that's gonna be a long one since
281
when we're doing it in the DAW I will show you how it it's much simpler
282
when you use the standalone mode
283
but in here I have to go through some stuff you get the controller working
284
and you know mapping it up so that will be a
285
that will be a video but for now I think we're good so yeah have fun bye
FOR YOU

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
