Playing dirt with delay...

Post by hazelwould »

Do you ever feel cheesy?

I play it right (kinda noisy), but sometimes when I'm doing lead stuff... :barf:

You mean like hair metal lead toanz? Yeah. It's easy to just leave it on and unknowingly slip into that thing.

I use my DD-3 to make "krrrang" sounds (pseudo-filter matrix if you will) or The Kills-style self-oscillations a lot when playing lead though.

Yea, I usually leave it with feedback pretty high. Or I'll leave it in warp mode on the dd-20 to get those washes. But the only way it sounds cool is like a really short delay or long delay with dirt leads. From my experience.

I never really slip into that, but I'm too horrible of a player to try a whole lot of lead stuff.

yeah, you just have to make sure your veer in a hurry when you approach "Lethal Weapon score" territory...

for an example of how to do this in a radd way, check out Moon Duo or Wooden Shjips.
Maybe partying will help.

I love dirt with delay, and normally avoid this because my only dirt is fuzz, but sometimes it happens anyway, and I JUST ROLL WITH IT and pretend I'm in Aerosmith for a couple of minutes. Then comes the shame. :no:

I use it often, almost always, but, I steer in the wooden shjips/moon duo direction. I sometimes think I'm too nervous/bad of a player to play leads without delay on. I need to break myself of that.

You also need to break yourself of not posting for weeks at a time.
