My Gear
| Propellerhead Reason – Used in recording my music, for loops, dance/hip hop/techno beats and realistic instrument sounds |
 |
| LaCie 160GB External Hard Drive Used to record my guitar tracks, which are huge wave files, in addition to the Reason sample libraries, and my ITunes tracks. |
 |
| I use an Ibanez RG Series guitar with EMG active pickups. I use one humbucker and one single coil pickup. The floyd rose tremolo system is disabled. |
|
| I also use an Ibanez Artcore semi-hollowbody guitar. This guitar plays great and is very reasonably priced. |
 |
| As a guitar amplifier with all the effects at home I use the Line 6 Pod XT. I go direct into my laptop for playing/recording. |
|
| I use the M-Audio Keystation 88 ES keyboard for inputting MIDI data such as drums, bass when recording. |
 |
| I use an external soundcard which is M-Audio’s Audiophile USB |  |
| I use Cubase SE to record and sequence my songs |
 |
| I use Band in A Box for jamming and improvising and as midi parts for sequencing using Cubase. |

Thanks a lot! Gauge isn’t really important. I use fairly light gauge or hybrid (heavy on bottom, light on top).

Hey Will! Your videos are the best. I just recently glanced at your video on pinch harmonics and thought it was amazing. It was the first video that I actually understood. But does it matter what string gauge you use for pinch harmonics?

I used the loops that the original author of Dirtbag provided. He allowed us to remix the song so I added some guitars and changed the arrangement.

Thanks Dirk,
There are some good tones, and you can also buy extra amp models. I usually go to the Line 6 website and just download the patches that people create, rather than do too much myself. It’s easy to get different tones and there is a software app that lets you edit the tones on the computer rather than with the podxt device itself. I like the podxt because I can go direct into the computer for recording and don’t have to blast an amp and mic it.

Hey Will
First of all nice playing and teaching!
I’m thinking of getting a pod xt.
Is it easy to get good metal tunes from it?
