Guest Marc O Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) Hello all, I'm new to the forum so I thought I'd introduce myself briefly, if you are on the Seymour Duncan forum, I am also known as cream123. In case you can't tell by the label to your left, my name is Marc...I'm 19 and I've been playing guitar for about eight years and doing hobbyist mixing and recording for about four, I suppose. I'm currently an Electrical Engineering major and would like to end up designing guitar effects for a more progressive company like Ehx...someone that pushes the bounds of what can be done with a guitar signal. But that's another matter. As far as guitar gear, I've got a bit but not nearly as much as many... main guitar: Polished up Squier Affinity strat -refinish in seafoam green nitro -SD Phat cat in neck position -no bridge pickup -Volume knob, no tone Main Amp: Either a Twin Twelve through a early 70s Univox 2x15 or A mid 70s Guild Maverick Pedals (need to get more): Ehx Sound retainer DIY rebote 2.5 delay with tap tempo mod Ehx Voice Box a couple other DIY things other: Axiom 25 keyboard As far as musical tastes...lets see. I'm pretty open to anything. I definitely tend to like certain genres, but I'll give anything a chance... Smashing Pumpkins Animal Collective Folky stuff...Neutral Milk Big Boi Common Nomo and other Afrobeat/Jazz Bon Iver is pretty cool stuff too idk, I could go on but you get a pretty good idea? A lot of it is poppish. I usually like a good beat too... as far as the music I make, it seems to depend on the day... here's my soundcloud, lemme know if you want to sample anything on there, I will let you just let me know so I can hear the product... anyways...yeah, here I am...I hope I can learn a lot about production, music, etc. this seems like a pretty cool place. -Marctron (sorry about the novel) Edited July 27, 2011 by Marc O

Guest ruiagnelo Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 seriously, do you happen to know about a man called Richard D. James?
Guest Marc O Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 seriously, do you happen to know about a man called Richard D. James? Yes, I have heard of the man. I will have to get into his work a little more it seems.

mcbpete Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 He invented the flange, I think. Either that or the wah-wah.
Guest Marc O Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 yea man, you should. he was quite a revolutionary one when it comes to guitar effects Thats what I hear. Next paycheck, I'll have to buy some of his stuff. What do you suggest?

IDM as fuck.
Guest Deep Fried Everything Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Thats what I hear. Next paycheck, I'll have to buy some of his stuff. What do you suggest? there's a really fantastic one out there where a jazz band covers his songs, you should look that one up too! the electro-acoustic treatment of the material really shines!!
Guest Marc O Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 and I'm really feeling like an idiot...I normally consider myself fairly tech savvy but I cannot find the edit button for that first post. I've edited it post before. Sorry for the really, really stupid question.

Guest Marc O Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Sounds to me like a Tom DeLonge (a la Blink 182) signature model. Yeah, actually its very similar. The only difference being the pickup and its placement (its even got a pearl pickguard). I really, really dug the aesthetics of the Tom DeLonge model. Selected Pedal Works 81-85 Surfing on Rock Waves that's for a start Awesome. Is there a place where I can buy the albums that directly supports him? Normally I just go with Amazon or similar but I'd prefer to support him more directly because he seems like a very "close to the listeners" kind of artist.
