The effect in this video was inspired by the keyboard sound in the 1972 Led Zeppelin song “No Quarter”.
The keyboard they used was a Fender Rhodes electric piano with through a Maestro phase sifter on the fast setting.
>Below are the EHX settings I found reminiscent of that great recording.
(The controls need to be fine tuned for each individuals instrument and playback equipment.)The second example in the video was the same as above but with the Pulsar pedal warble effect.
It has more of a traditional, slightly dirty suitcase style Fender Rhodes.The solo sound was the guitar through a Voice Box pedal in the whistle mode.
To plug a guitar into the mic jack of this pedal, I used XLR to 1/4 inch adapter plugs.
Below are the setting used for the Whistle sound.Good luck and have fun.
Bill Ruppertoh i love it Bill… i’m not really much into Led Zep but No quarter has always been my favourite…
it’s a pity that you need so big pile of pedals to get that sound… well, let’S dream about it
Thanks Bill.
I have a new XO series pedal, not the old large box version.I already thought to add a compressor before the Micro-Synth, but I had a very bad luck and the Analogman comp that I was waiting went lost in a catastrophic shipment from a TGP danish forumite
Anyway a comp will probably my next pedal, to avoid some well knowm dead notes and sustain problems of our beloved Micro-Synth..
About the swirl: I didn’t get the Delay modulation, i’ll try to add some with my MiniDejaVibe, but I suppose that the main difference is the strong and compressed signal of the Soul Preacher that loads better the Synth…Thanks again for all your help and creativity!
Good luck with the compressor!
The Mod delay is a chorused delay.
The Memory Man has a very interesting changing rate for speed.
Other that that the stop and start frequency controls of the MicroSynth are tricky to set correctly and need to be toyed with according to your playing dynamics.
If the sound is to over all to bright, lower both controls. If the attack is to bright lower just the start ect.
Thats where the compressor may make things easier by taming the dynamics of the guitar.
Thanks again and good luck.
