Ambient Guitar Meditation: EBow, Drones and Pitch Shifting
Музыка
I play an Ambient Guitar Meditation based on an old, old hymn tune using the Strymon Volante for delays and a looped drone, the EHX Pitch Fork for luscious pitch shifted tones, and the Heet Sound EBow for long languid melodies. May "The Cloud of Witnesses" bring you peace!

BEAUTIFUL- POWERFUL- SOULFUL-wow.
Love your music Bill ❤ You are a beautiful Soul, love you😊
Thanks for the sounds washing over our heads. Renewed, and fortified...there's a journey ahead. May this be returned to you beyond what you would ever conceive.
IMHO this style is incredible and can flourish in what I believe to be the golden age of guitar fx
Stunning Bill, really stunning
love the music! namaste
Nice piece! Has somewhat of a Celtic feeling. Thank you.
It's only 6pm and I don't want to sleep yet. Will listen to later.
Well done! Phil Keaggy wrote a piece on those clouds, too. If you haven't heard March of the Clouds, it's a must listen!
Soothing, relaxing, meditating. In one word "masterpiece".
Mesmerizing meditation Bill, peace be with you.
I had problems getting to sleep the other night so I played some of your tracks on Spotify which got me into the perfect state for a truly excellent 7 hours sleep!
Beautiful! I love my ebow, but you always give us a master class on it's use.
I am going to use this for a meditation session. It is quite otherworldly.
Oh, Bill, such a sweet and powerful piece. Thanks so much for sharing. I've watched hours of your videos, but this one takes the proverbial cake!
Thanks Bill. Your music is assom
Very nice, this could calm my ass down, lol. Seriously great stuff. Your drone is super powerful!
Very Robert Fripp-soundscape-seque!
Love the ebow. I offer the following constructive criticism: The volume peaks a little high for meditation.
Great tones man. Brazil was here.
Cool soundin' piece Bill
Great!
Onion Knight ambient session.
Nice!!!!

Nice 👍 I got to get me an ebow!!😊👍
Bill, after trying my hand at building my first ambient track, I've gained a huge and renewed respect, first: for your high level of creativity and musical talent, second: your experience at effectively utilizing pedals and plug-ins and finally: for mixing and mastering those efforts into professional level music products. I know that you can garner great sounds from any effects, but I wonder if you feel that the wide range of (sometimes very expensive) pedals that you've amassed over the years helps to broaden your 'painting pallet" and which ones are, today, now indispensable to your craft?
Could do a good Lou Reed Junior Dad intro with those vibes 😊
That sounds great, I had an EBow but I dropped it and broke it. I got to get another one

Agreed. Get another one! :-)
Oh, you're already doing the green screen thing. Never mind my comment about background in another video; I hadn't been paying attention! I usually don't watch the screen during your videos so much, I play along on top of it as practice.
Nice Bill .......

watch a Bob Ross painting video. You will understand the love.
Greetings my friend. Congratulations for your channel and your music. Have you tested Sustaniac or Fernandes Sustainer pickups for ambient music? I would like to know your opinion about it.

What exactly did you use to get the full chord sound with the ebow? I thought it was only useful for single notes

As with many of these type videos the pedals are listed in the description. The "secret" is the EHX Pitch Fork :-)
Great sound! Very cool! Good night! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ........ ZZZZ... ZZZZ... ZZZZZ....
Nice, Bill...may I ask how you've got the Volante set up?

Chords Of Orion awesome! Wish we could meet up for a jam, I'd love to accompany you with my ambient synths....Sadly, we are continents apart :-((
So Bill, which is better between Brainwave and Pitch Fork?

Hi Bill. You seem to use things I did at Guitar Center. Hated me. But I have enough strength to ask you. Can you get these sounds on a small scale ?

@@chordsoforion Sorry...by small scale I meant minimal equipment and pedals. How can I reproduce your magnificent tones and soundscapes without breaking the bank on those fantastic Strymon pedals? I'm sold on Strymon. But apparently so is everyone else. It's rare to find a used Strymon pedal of any kind. Especially the El Capistan. I bugged the sales staff at my local Guitar Center for 3 hours trying out various pedals to achieve your genius. Alas...I have been shunned.

Reminds me of the Minecraft soundtrack
Nice sound and looks pretty easy. I was playing this exact sound in 88’, with a few FX, and a lot of volume knob playing. this is so much easier of course.

video or it didn't happen! joking aside, Chords of Orion makes if look so easy. I do soundscapes with cheapo gear also but it is easy to ruin a nice piece or make everything sound samey. I've said it before but Chords is the Bob Ross of ambient.
Great track ! :) I can't find your Playlist of Ambiant guitar tutorials anymore, am I blind or did it go away ?
