That Pedal Show - Matt Schofield New Pedalboard Build

Welcome to That Pedal Show! Please subscribe to our channel and visit our store www.thatpedalshowstore.com
In this video, Dan has a couple of hours to put a new pedalboard together for our good friend Matt Schofield… then deliver it to soundcheck ready for the gig that same night.
The aim of this build was to keep Matt's pedals the same as on his previous board, but improve on the signal clarity and switching convenience. Same pedals, but a completely different experience? Let's see…
The slightly longer story…
Matt joined us on That Pedal Show for an episode that aired 13 July 2017 and you can watch that here: • That Pedal Show Specia...
During the filming for that video, he floored us with his incredible tone and playing: big volume, amazing dynamics and astonishing feel. However… Matt’s board had definitely seen better days, suffering some fairly major buzz and hum issues and no doubt robbing him of some tone and signal. What’s a pedalboard builder to do?
Dan offered to improve things for Matt, so we convened at HQ one Saturday lunchtime and started work on a new board. By 4:30pm we were at the venue in Bristol ready to go.
Matt had decided that a full-on G2-based rig was more than he needed, given that he only uses a small number of pedals and rarely uses combinations of anything other than one delay and one overdrive. However, given the tone/signal loss he was currently experiencing, there was clearly a need for some independent true-bypass loop switching. QuarterMaster QMX was obviously the way to go.
You can see the whole build process in the video, and we’re pleased to say that since Matt returned back to the US, Dan has had a couple of lovely messages saying how much things have improved; more fidelity, dynamics and - yes - more tone making it to the amp!

THAT was extremely informative. I really liked the detail on how Dan goes about setting up the board, what his GigRig devices do and how to wire them, and the little bit at the end where Matt talks about the increased gain and positive change of tone by getting all his pedals isolated in the Quartermaster loop (getting them all true bypassed) was especially enlightening. Thanks Dan and Mick for sharing this video (and behind the scenes look at GigRig).

@ThatPedalShow 7 жыл бұрын

+Steven Dobias this is what I love about pedals. You can get so specific about how best to apply it for someone's rig. Matt's tone is all about the dynamics in his playing, and his pedals reflect this. My entire concept is getting things out the way when they're not needed, and for a player with such immense dynamics, it makes a big difference :)

i had a couple epiphanies while watching this video. The first was the insight between what the differences are between a musician and an artist. And seeing Matt's method for dialing in an amp or pedal explains so much about how to get the best sound for the music you want to convey. In summary, all gear has sweet spots and this where they sound best. Matt is a great artist and guitar player. And TPS is a fantastic channel :)

Thanks for this! As much as I "want" a g2, as it is always a silent star in the videos...I don't really have a need for one despite using quite a few pedals; but, only one midi (a tc delay, that I'm probably too thick to program anyway) , and I'm fairly set in my ways with drive order, etc. The quartermasters are very impressive! I imagine they will tame some issues with some very old modulation effects too, because the are isolated in their own loop? They have a very small footprint as well. This is the type of content that really makes y'all the best! Much appreciated!

Question: Matt was having tremendous noise issues when he appeared on "That Pedal Show". Did the Generator and Gig Rig setup help alleviate the extraneous noise he was having? I know that when I switched to my Generators et al, the lack of noise in my rather large rig was staggering- not only was the signal passing through without inhibition, but it was deadly quiet! Amazing stuff you've done Dan, kudos to you!
