What do you think of Ableton btw? I’m thinking of dipping my toe into home recording and I am researching what basic package would be best. I will be starting from scratch in this areaslinger wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 8:12 pm I've got physical keyboards, and I run Ableton Live studio, so I'm well and truly catered for as far as organs/pianos/synths are concerned.

The foot pedals should, hopefully, be noise-free. They're all true-bypass models.
Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
I've been using it for years. When I first got serious I got hold of the trial/SE versions of as many bits of studio software as I could, and Ableton just happened to be the one that stuck. Obviously, Pro Tools is the most talked-about DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) but there are quite a few options out there and none of them is particularly cheap so do try before you buy.Copperblue wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 8:29 pmWhat do you think of Ableton btw?

Studio software can have a Hell of a big learning curve associated with it too, so be prepared to give it some time and cuss a lot.

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
I've just bought one of these while it's on sale. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/TC-Electronic-AEON-Infinite-Guitar-Sustainer/2G6K
£31.99 with postage. As I've just bought eleven of their pedals I thought I'd try their take on the eBow.

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
I'll let you know. I couldn't resist it at that price though. I've seen a couple of reviews, one says it's a worthy competitor for the eBow, the other says it's rubbish.
Here's the official blurb.

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
Not the best pic in the world, it was just a quick snapshot using a tablet. I've got all of the pedals hooked up and velcroed to the steel pedalboard frame. The next job will be to integrate a couple of multi-way 9v power bricks and make all the pretty little lights come on.
I'm loving those bright orange patch cords I had made.

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
I've just solved that "problem".
I've ordered a hand-made "Cocked WAH" pedal. which (hopefully) does something like this, but for a lot less than £200+
