Friends Last Forever [Ambient Guitar Loop / Soundscape]

[kevdog330]

Are you just using 57's on your amps?

[mynameistin]

@kevdog330, for this song i was not. i was also using e609's. a 57 and a 609 on each amp then blended so in reality when recording to my daw its actually 4 channels. just doing some experimenting and i do like it. i tried doing this on my couple songs I'm about to release but just to many tracks going on in the daw but maybe at a later date.

[corduroyfarmer]

the reverb trails get quite vocalish....top work

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

excellent, most excellent...love the dialog between fido and your homie too, adds some sort of cool cinematic effect, perhaps 'visual soundscapes' lol. I'd love to see what you'd do with an 'Ebow'...

[ThatBrentGuy13]

This is so brilliant. The tone, how it was put together. Loved every second of it. I aspire to make soundscapes like this... Thank you for being such an inspiration!

[mynameistin]

@ThatBrentGuy13 really appreciate the kind comments.glad you enjoyed it

[fortifyfunk]

What kind of looping pedal do you use?

[mynameistin]

@fortifyfunk, Boomerang 3...it really is great.

[mynameistin]

[nirvanasification]

awesome

[mynameistin]

@nirvanasification thanks for watching!

[Danthehorse]

Justin, have you released any of this music on Bandcamp or similar?

[mynameistin]

@Danthehorse i may have to get bandcamp and put my youtube videos audio up there for download and then maybe start adding songs one by one as i make them. ive started working with some drums and such also and your not the first so ask so ill keep you posted. thanks again for listening dan

[Danthehorse]

@mynameistin Thanks Justin, this is probably my favourite ambient piece i've yet heard. 

[MegaBrebis]

Great work! Exactly what I like...

Concerning your 2 amps, I have an AC15 and I wondered if I should add the BJ or another AC15 to have stereo. What's your experience with these 2 amps?

[mynameistin]

@MegaBrebis the blues junior and the ac15 do have a bit different but nice clean sounds. the reason mainly i didn't go with 2 ac15's mainly was due to wanting a bit different of an eq. nothing crazy but just a little as most stuff i put on youtube and even just for home use (hopefully one day will be an album) is mostly stereo so i figured it would help make it just sound a bit different.

[fxman8]

are all of your reverbs before your looper or do you have any after for smoother tails and what not??

[mynameistin]

@fxman8 in this video they are all before the looper...there is some spots you may be able to here its not perfectly smooth but worked out pretty well

[fxman8]

@mynameistin okay, thanks buddy. and thats exactly how i feel about some of the fluidity with the Rang. I personally am thinking about another small reverb to put after my Rang so everything will sound smoother, especially with the Fade function.

[mynameistin]

@fxman8 that will definitly help or the other option would be to say record an empty amount of space in a loop blank that is the length of what your doing to play. then stack on top of the loop.

[fxman8]

@mynameistin oh absolutely, I just havent practiced that much. Ive also been meaning to try recording to loop and then use the Undo function and see if it will keep the length of the loop. But I have a feeling that it will erase anything, havent tried it yet

[AmbientMusic4life]

how do like using the blues junior? I'm probably gonna be getting one soon to run stereo with my other amp

[mynameistin]

@AmbientMusic4life i enjoy it, if anything in the far away future i would like to run with just 2 bigger combo amps

[scorpguitar79]

cool!

[cosmogang]

Love your work man. Love it. I gotta say it though, the title of this song reminds me of Michael W. Smith :)

[mynameistin]

@cosmogang, my bad cosmo...i do use it in here and by which i love it. gotta add it to the description. haha dangit i need to branch out more to not jack titles. not my strong suit ;)

[marvinhuiting]

This is amazing! I also like the Boomerang. Which effect did you use from the M9?

[mynameistin]

@marvinhuiting, for half of it i stack 2 reverbs and later on i use a stereo delay

[kevdog330]

Wow.....I love the reverse function on the Boomerang, I need to get one now!!!

[mynameistin]

@kevdog330, i do agree i have fallen in love with reverse as a subtle context. the DL4 also has reverse on it.
