Blues in E minor

Just a top of the head jam created with Axiom 49, Line 6 Gold Bundle and Mackie Tracktion 3. I threw up some pics as filler material to push out here, so please don't pay too much attention to them.

I got the inspiration for this from the video of Roy Smith playing his Les Paul/Marshall combo with killer tones. Check out his video at:

No guitars were hurt in producing this musical video.
Thanks for listening!

Got to count this sort of blues all the way out to 12. There 3 beats in a set, and 4 sets of 3. Each one has a different accent. Just something to think about to get yourself in line with the feel of the music. Its actually poly rhythmic if you think about it in detail enough. Just count 12. Keep 12 in you mind while you jam away. Good luck. :)

Okie dokey! 12 it is!

Thanks for listening . :)

Great job! Wish I knew half of what you do about this "desktop studio" stuff! Take a quick listen to my "blues in em "on the acoustic....................it could use your lead on it! thanks......Guitarman

Thank you for your kind comments!

I did check out your Blues in Em and loved it. Like I wrote on your page, it's a soothing tonic. :)

The beauty of what you've produced is that you can sit on a beach, a mountain top or even a tree branch and serenade the masses. If I'm not plugged in, all I can do is hum.

Well done and thanks again!

Hi again.

Ok, I thought so, that rules out the POD, because it has no aftertouch. Is there any limits to what can be done with a keyboard? For instance, could you play Ian Parkers Sassy Blues Jam (here on Youtube) on keyboard?

thanks for answering

I just checked the Sassy Blues Jam and it's kickin' for sure!

Most of what I've heard can be duplicated with the setup I have, however the pitch bend range would have to be extended from 2 semitones to 3, which would give the expression a whole new range and feel. Additionally, the swipes down the neck, as well as any note bends (eg. bend up to A and hit A at the same time) need to be addressed.

I believe RealStrat can do this, but I've never tried.

Read up on RealStrat. It's a good front end.

Sheesh, I thought for sure I was going to get my ass chewed out for saying count to 12, LoL, Usually, that's what happens when I try to help. O.K. Yes, Great. Yes, 12 it is then, great, :) LoL. No wonder I am not a people person. Sheesh

Yes, I'm using aftertouch to control the feedback effect using the RealStrat VSTi.

I haven't laid hands on the Line6 KB37, but it does look like it can be a good addition to the desktop studio. Personally, I prefer at least a 49 key controller, and I would scrutinize the pitch bend wheel to make sure it's as responsive as your needs call for.

The Axiom 49's pitch bend wheel is perfect for me. Very responsive with a rubbery feel.

Thanks again for your comments!

Hi there!

Did you use the keyboard aftertouch?

Your opinion of the Line6 POD Studio KB37?

thanks again
