CLIPS
Here are links to extra sound clips.
I like to record things. I record almost every gig I play and every now and then I'll record myself playing through an effect just to hear how it sounds. If I find something I like, I edit it and post it here. There are some pretty cool sounds (and some sloppy playing..) throughout these clips. If you hear anything you like and want to know more about, let me know.
| Clip | File name | Description |
| Super2 | Super2.mp3 | Some sloppy but fun E minor pent noodling (my specialty!) during the song Superstition. You can hear Aquavibe, Octron, and Zim. Recorded live on April 26, 2008. |
| Sleepy | Sleepy.mp3 | Guitars into Aquavibe, direct into PC sound card. If this tune doesn't put you to sleep, nothing will! |
| E minor 6 vibe | Em6vibe.mp3 | I hold down an Em6 chord and strum. Between each strum, I changed the settings on an Aquavibe. |
| April | April.mp3 | Aimless strat noodling recorded while experimenting with vibe prototype. ZIM with VT card into Fender Twin. LONG clip. |
| Henry's vibe sound | HenryVibe.mp3 | A pleasant vibe noodling clip made for Henry C. Recorded using a Sony Minidisc with stereo mic. |
| Dancing in the streets | dancn.mp3 | Live solo during Dancing in the streets - Lefty Carvin Bolt Strat with Texas Specials. Bridge/Middle pickups selected. Foxrox ZIM With H9 card in Ch B, Vibe prototype between guitar and ZIM. |
| Chain Solo | Chain solo.MP3 | Live riffing/solo with new Vibe prototype during Chain of Fools. Strat into ZIM channel A with VT card. |
| BM Anthem | BManthem.mp3 | Multi-track layers of BM. Cute little production with stereo guitars. Listen to the tone and sustain of the BM card in ZIM. |
| BM clip 1 | BMclip1.MP3 | First clip of the BM (Brown Muff) card for ZIM. Done while tweaking circuit so that I could come back and hear it later. Done at bedroom volume with stereo mic into mp3 recorder. |
| Groove 2night | Grv2night.MP3 | ZIM (H9 card) into TZF. |
| Smooth Op | Smoothop.mp3 | Live clip. Some almost-aimless noodling at the end of the song Smooth Operator. Nice strat sound, through an Octron with clean+low octave mixed in, going into ZIM with CS card installed. |
| What I say | whatsay.MP3 | Live clip - last solo in What I say. By the end of the solo every effect on my pedal board was on! |
| Started 2 | STARTVCT.mp3 | Live jam chopped up.. nice flange sweeps |
| Fuzzcount | FUZZCOUNT.MP3 | This one was recorded back around 1986 when I was making FuzzFaces at Crest Audio, DMI Inc. I recorded this to document some of the cool sounds I was getting out of my prototype, which include some custom mods and extra features. |
| Hotstuff | HostuffDiscoinf.mp3 | Two live disco solos spliced together. First one has a nice TZF flange and the second one has some mild Octron dialed in. |
| Started | startNORM4.mp3 | A frantic solo during a live disco jam. Hey - we have fun. Octron into ZIM into TZF. |
| TZF Clean | TZFCLEAN.mp3 | Some pretty swirly sounds. Clean guitar into TZF. |
| Afterwards | Afterwards.mp3 | Impromptu noodling with keybaord player and drummer before a gig. Poor quality recording, but listen to the effect on the guitar. TZF can get a bit of that Leslie vibe. LONG clip (4+ minutes) |
| les1.mp3 and Les3.mp3 | Two examples of how a Paradox TZF can be set up to get a bit of a Leslie vibe. It sounds closer than some of the Leslie simulators currently on the market. | |
| Let's get it on solo (live) | get7.mp3 | Recorded live 12/03. Improv guitar solo, strat>CC2 vibe>ZIM H9 overdrive, volume knob on gtr used to control drive. Vibe very subtle in second half of clip. Listen to how Russ, the singer orders me to solo... "Fox.." I'm used to it. |
| Turtles solo (live) | turt4.mp3 | Recorded live 12/03. Improv gtr solo, strat>CC2 Hybrid fuzz, Maxon AD900 delay. Fuck all solo for "Happy together". |
| Tar+ clip | Tplus_1.mp3 | I jammed through a ZIM with a new Tar+ card loaded in Ch B. Bridge Humbucker throughout. Played with different voicings, thenspliced it all together on the computer. Lots of classic distortion sounds! |
| Hot Silicon groove | Hotsigroove.mpg | Quick blues riff with Hot Si fuzz lead from start to end. Ambience effect added at mixdown. GRIT on fuzz set for slight sputter. |
| Right hand flange | Right hand flange.mpg | Video file - Watch my right hand and some spools of wire while a ZIM and TZF unleash some some crazy envelope flange mayhem. |
| I left my keys in the barn | Barn.mp3 | Original composition. Multitrack layered ZIM and CC2 guitars. Trombone. |
| Ferg | Ferg.mp3 | Solo over drum machine progression. CC2 Octave, Fuzz and Vibe featured. Nice Strat sounds. |
| Cavedorp | cavedor3.mp3 | Gtr noodling with drum machine. TZF envelope flange sweeps. |
| Trippyflange | octfln2.mp3 | Gtr alone with CC2 Octave and TZF envelope flange. |
| Garbleflange | BLAR9.mp3 | Gtr alone with ZIM and TZF envelope flange. Prototype envelope filter used during clean part at the end. |
| 3Vibe | 3vibe.mp3 | An experimental clip showing a very dark Univibe sound . |
