U2 Love is Blindness

Short clip of Love is Blindness (live version) leading into the solo. I used a Gibson Les Paul Custom, mainly the Neck pup. The Vox AC4 was used for the main signal (with a Fender Blues Jr for Verbzilla/Shimmer sounds).
The TimeFactor was used for the Delay. I used a Boss SD-1 as a pre-delay boost for most of the song. I kick in the DM4 (Screamer) for the solo and I push the Vox AC4 with the Skrydstrup Bufferooster to get that big sound Edge gets on stage (well ok he has 6 amps!!! but hopefully you get the idea :) ).

This is the best tribute to the Edge that Iv seen here on KZfaq, you are really good and this solo is so well built all the 3 parts melt together perfectily.

@u2john316 I see what you mean about the seperation. I find that when I use the loop function on my DL-4 it gets to be a clusterfuck when everything is in one speaker. My favorite versions of "Blindness" are from ZOOTV and Zooropa, and the version I figured out was from Sydney. I have seen video of Lanois playing his Goldtop with that tremolo style using bare fingers and it sounds exactly like the "Blindness" tremolo solos. I think there may be an interview where Edge says Danny showed him that

@garbeaj Better to separate out the shimmer to a second speaker. Keeps the other signal clearer IMHO. I might do a video on just my shimmer set ups one of these days. I agree that this song (and Acrobat) is full of Daniel Lanois influences. Edge does a great job playing Love is Blindness live esp the solo.

@u2john316 13 жыл бұрын

@speedRickspeed I have neighbours so the AC4 is suitably loud for home/recording use especially for the breakup-sounds. The AC30 cranked needs a large environment but I agree, the AC30 does sound good when you do that.

You will need a signal splitter of some kind and preferably one that can handle the "phase" of 2 amps together.

Do you always use a seperate amp for the "shimmer" effect? I know very little about the shimmer sound, but I love your facility with it in a small scale setup (vs. Edge's of course!) I need to review all of your videos because I'm sure detail it elsewhere. I think it would be cool to do an instructional video for the "shimmer" specifically if you haven't already:) The leads here are so Lanois influenced,especially the uniquely haphazard and deliberately messy tremolo picking...all Danny IMHO:)

Fantastic, great sound. Skilful playing. Gonna have a go at this one. Got the M13, an SD1 and a DD20 with an AC4. Have you experimented with the bit of the song where the stuff that's around the 7th fret shifts up to the 8th ?

Fantastic! One critique is that you can eliminate some of the scratching sound by picking at the strings a bit closer to the neck. Other than that it was nearly perfect. Well done!
