Totally rough, one take, no EQ. pickroar.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Evosevic_YJM_pedal_-_Gray_Nicholson.mp3I just took a backing I had made for another project and went at it for 90 seconds with this pedal and the Yngwie Strat. One take, absolutely no fiddling or tweaking besides some Swede-approved reverb. Obviously there are mistakes, but that's not the point! I can only think of superlatives that involve a lot of swear words and blasphemy so I'm not saying anything right now. |

Very nice! Excellent vibrato, the Ying would be proud!! (=
Oh, and the tone is sweet - zero speaker fuzz, fizz, harsh crap, etc, that we all hate, just a nice smooth yet raw lead tone, melikes. Props. Care to share what mic and more importantly, distance, angle, etc?

I gotta get me one of them things and a Greenback. You seriously have the Yngwie tone and vibrato NAILED. Guitar World voted Yngwie in the top 5 of all time for best vibrato in a poll some years back. I remember the quote being something like "believe it or not, he (Yngwie) does use some vibrato between all of those notes; and when he does it will make shiver." Well I don't know about shiver, but it will sure make the hair on your arm stand up. Great Job Ayton! |

I bet your stock YJM pedal never sounded like that LOL.

Man that's great, I haven't heard much of his music but great tone on that. Seems like I see Greenbacks in my future.

Props. Care to share what mic and more importantly, distance, angle, etc? Wow, great playing. I'm humbled to be a small part of it. Please, if you can, if you might let us know those details of your recording process, I'd be most grateful. I have a lot of trouble with capturing what I am hearing on our Tascam 2488. |

I had to listen to this one twice... Actually made my eyes tear up, that usually only happens when I listen to EJ or Vai. You've got the tone NAILED. Thanks for posting.. |

So that's two wives so far who recognize my genius! I sho' got a way with the ladies. I had to listen to this one twice... Actually made my eyes tear up, that usually only happens when I listen to EJ or Vai. You've got the tone NAILED. Thanks for posting.. Wow. Thanks for that man, sincerely, and everyone else for your kind words. Honest opinion: I think you are all such tone sluts you are glossing over all my various playing crimes! Got to say, I was laughing here, by myself, laughing out loud after I fumbled through this little test recording, took the crappy headphones off and played it back on the monitors. I was like, "I have... this tone?!" It was a very happy Friday. I went out for drinks later, snacks, a movie, and although I was talking and nodding, inside I was just dreaming, "omg teh toanz!" I am tickled to be asked for recording tips. I have very basic equipment; there are guys here with Pro Tools and a thousand plugins! I have one mic, an audio interface, and Garageband. Don't expect a masterclass! A few days ago, before I got the pedal, I was playing around recording the Greenback and felt that in no single mic position did the speaker sound like itself, until I turned the mic sideways, at 90º more or less to the grille. It immediately sounded better, more like it does in the room. Then I just moved it here and there from left to right until I was hearing what I wanted to hear. Settled a little off center, roughly where the dust cap meets the cone.   The mic (a Shure C606) runs into my Ozone (this is a mic-pre, a MIDI controller, and an audio interface in one box) where I set as strong a signal as I can without clipping. The Ozone feeds right into my Mac, running Garageband, where I did nothing to the tone but add reverb. I think in gear demos it's best to avoid compression, EQ etc. So that's that. You could get it sounding even more Yngwie if you wanted to. I didn't even change the amp's EQ from where it was a week ago for a different guitar and no pedal. But I like that you're hearing a very YJM sound except with, well, better mids than he's had in 15 years.  |

Please forgive my mental lapse if you already told me previously. |
