Super solid on all of them but both the clean and fuzzy parts of Bullet with Butterfly were fantastic. Bravo

Great tones! It would have been really interesting to know the settings of the amp, pedals, eq, etc

@andrewbenks 11 ай бұрын

Thanks! - the settings on the amp and pedal are the same as the picture I used in the video. But it was mainly the post processing that gave it the "Mellon Collie shine". But for jamming you can get very close with any Marshall.

@theshuriken 11 ай бұрын

can you replicate the intro of 'by starlight'? I am really curious what kind of effects they used for that

@andrewbenks 11 ай бұрын

It sounds like a rotary speaker or leslie effect for the intro riff, and then the clean part sounds like the eventide H3000 - with the delays and reverbs -- greet song!! :)

@ToneSherpa 10 ай бұрын

I always wondered if they used an actual leslie on that or if it's some sort of chorus pedal or emulation of a leslie.

@andrewbenks 10 ай бұрын

@@ToneSherpa Ya hard to say but I would guess it was probably an effect (too much time to find a Leslie for just one deep cut song)

Maybe a little woofy on that low end (although so is the album to be fair).. you could maybe clean up the low a little bit but otherwise that's sounds pretty damn close to my ears.

Thanks - ya the low end is hard to nail for this record

@ToneSherpa 10 ай бұрын

@@andrewbenks yeah I think a lot of it is the pickups they use. Billy specifically likes them Hot Rails a lot. I think there's something about having super hot pickups that contributes a lot to the Pumpkins tone.

@@ToneSherpa Ya definitely - also James used Les Paul's which sounded really fat and full.
