Ok am getting in to effects in a big way and am starting to build a pedal board.

But my question, if you listen to this

[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mpBYtUJoxE"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mpBYtUJoxE[/url]

at 2.33 is. Justin does some crazy effect.

How do you create these sounds? its some thing i have never looked into really.

Any idea?

Sounds like a delay with the feedback turned right up, maybe with some kind of looper in there.

Edit: There's a recent thread with a diagram of his board [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=151235"]here[/url]. DD-3 - with a hold function. Mind you, there's also a Bass Whammy on there, which also does squeely type noises, so maybe he's triggering both. Definately delay in there though, because there's a weird pulsing going on as well.

It does, doesn't it. But it seems to tie in with when he steps the pedal on and off. Actually I'd assumed the bongo like beats that occur at the same time were his doing as well. Though now I'm thinking they might actually be bongos. :)

Edit: Yeah they're drums. It helps if you don't just leap in at 2:33. :)

Justin only has one delay though, and the timing is very fast.

Mic feed back sounds sound but a risky move live dont you think?

I do remember reading in an article once that he turns on effects to see the ambient noise.

A similar noise again at around 2:45, it really does sound like feedback though, an I cant think of anything on his board that would do that? sounds good though!

When we play it, its always guitar feedback.

I did read somewhere he has another smaller board,normally over by his stacks! I cannot remember what effects are on there, used for lost keys, I might be wrong but i think there was another delay on there........maybe its this delay cranked?

you can just see the 2nd board, GEB-7,Tremolo and another GT-2 are whats on there, could he be using this, as the camera angle he is side on?[/quote]

i was gonna say some kind of tremelo effect with a bit of modulation effects too.
