Carl…ness.
Recently awarded “MUSICIAN OF THE YEAR 20/21” for the QLD Prestige awards - Carl Wockner is a straight-up SAVAGE! (the good kind).
Latest single “Fool’s Gold” is a delicate balance of organic-acoustic POP mixed with singer-songwriter lyricism and honesty, which is exactly what you get when you’re first exposed to Carl Wockner, especially in a live setting.
Determined to pave his own path in modern music - Wockner uses multi-instrumentalism and dynamic production to take listeners on a journey through multiple genres and sonic excitement, all while telling a story.
“Recent singles of 2020 END OF ME, PAINT THE AIR, STEREO, CMB have been a collaboration with pop producer Ben Flanders. We added specific ingredients of Pop production with REAL acoustic guitar, hits, taps - vocal trills and voicing. These were all incorporated INTO the beat to give a nice earthy presence, and we even added Kazoo (on Better) just because.. I really feel like we just straight up need more kazoo in our lives!”
Carl Wockner was named the first and ONLY Australian artist to ever win Top Honors at the International Acoustic Music Award’s 2015 (USA), along with top of the AAA category for the release of his album Crayon Days with producer Michael Flanders in Nashville TN. Wockner has skipped up the charts with his first two single releases receiving high rotation to national radio in both Australia and USA which landed the title track into the International Billboard Charts. The same album has received a 2016 IMA (Independent Music Awards) Finalist nomination for Best Adult Contemporary Album. It was following this recent success that Wockner relocated his family to Nashville TN, USA as a strategic move for his evolving career.
Sept 2019, Carl was featured for an entire episode of “Backstage Marquee” a syndicate show aired across the USA featuring original artists set to be ‘the next big thing.’
Sept 2018 Wockner performed LIVE on National USA Television. The show HLN on the CNN Network for the segment “The Weekend Express,” featured Carl’s original songwriting and performance as a showcase taste of Nashville / Music City.
His rare “Live Looping” style solo performance matched only with his signature vocals and unique acoustic guitar work renders Carl in a league of his own. The live shows have been recognized throughout Australia and USA with multiple headliner performances at festivals and touring, and Wockner is now rumoured as one of the busiest musicians in Nashville, TN - aka “Music City.”
Since landing in Nashville, Wockner has released two EP’s including a Christmas release with the favoured “Santa Selfie.” Currently his latest single “Better” is noted as the best studio representation of his signature live performance style.
There’s something about Carl Wockner’s music that simply exudes peace. The peace you feel when you’re humming along to a nostalgic track, or the peace you feel when you just know everything’s going to be ok. However you connect with Carl’s music, you would agree this he is definitely onto something.
Carl’s first EP, the self-produced, recorded, mixed (all in his lounge room) Acoustic…ness, was released in 2011 to an overwhelmingly positive response. Single “Pictures” received airplay on Hot 91 FM and ZINC FM, the latter of whose DJ’s referred to him as “the man with the big hair and Golden Tonsils.” Carl was also named a finalist in three categories at the 2012 and 2013 MusicOZ awards: Acoustic Singer/Songwriter, Blues and Roots, and Pop.

You are an example of whats good about music. Your a role model that will go largely UN-noticed amongst a sea of corporate run pop idol music/money makers. Good job

Snooze00 thanks mate:) I'm happy to know a few people are getting some handy information out of this:)
Thank you, Carl! I'm a sound company owner in New York City and you are SO correct in many of the things you mentioned, I applaud you for this exceptionally informative, helpful and downright well-made video. Buying a case for keeping the pedals protected and connected, getting the tone together, with a PA etc! All great info. KUDOs to you as this took time but it should serve many well!
Thank you for taking the time to help all of us who are just trying to get ahead in our music.
You are a great musician, a great teacher and a looping Jedi. Thanks Carl!
you're cool man. I appreciate the unassuming way you present the information. You don't HAVE to take the time to share your knowledge but you do, and you seem to be doing it from the heart. Thank you.

Thanks Jeff, Yes there seems to be heaps of people out there looping - but many tend to go a little too complicated too quickly, and overlook the tonal qualities of it. This is all obviously my personal suggestions, but Im glad its helping a few people:)

Hi Carl, thanks so much for this. I really wish there had been videos as clear and straightforward as this back in May when I first started trying to get my head around live looping at gigs.
Thanks much for posting this video. Good tips regarding set up for live performance.
Thank you for taking the time to help others! Your sound, on your other pedalboard vid, just hooked me. That little Maton through your setup is so warm and evocative. Well Done! I have something to shoot for with my own playing.
great demonstration of the gear, your voice and playing. thanks for sharing
Awesome! The voice of experience. True value here...not a second of wasted time listening. I appreciate the work you did here on this vid...not to mention the amazing music...You are quite talented. Thanks again.
I searched for info on a looper and how to use one (the Boss one you have) and after about twelve tries I finally came across your video. It was helpful and I appreciate you sharing.
Thank you from Yuma, Arizona ! Valuable video for many and myself.
Great advice Carl, Best bit was getting your sound right so you can feel confident going to any gig with any sound engineer. Best thing I ever did a while back. Hope your doing great mate.
Thank you for this Carl! I just started looping with this station, and it's quite something!
The best ten plus minutes I've spent in a long time. May good things happen for you.
I'm just getting into looping live. Great tips, thank you for sharing!
Incredibly helpful, thanks for taking the time to make this. I'm on the fence about which looper to go with, and I have a somewhat similar setup as you, so this helped a ton!

"Hi Carl..Doc J here again bro'.. Many thanks for the info.. Much appreciated bro..I've been looping fir a few years now..on & off.. I'm 65.. & ive been gigging live all of my life..& I'm still giggin hard to this day.. I play solo.. With midi files & a assortment of guitars.. I do play a lot of live gig's .. Just me & my 'Maton Gat'..or my Fender Gat'..both are wicked bro..I learnt to play the old way.."Bass & Rythum & licks over the top of the lot.. Until about 4-5 years ago.. One of my Bro's was busking in Brisbane city with a Boss RC 20 Loôper..I was ripped'..Man he had a 'mean sound & a drum beat comin out of the Loôper..It was rad as bro.. So I bought one myself & after many many months.. I could use it at some of my gigs to mainly lay a 'Bass & Rythum' section down..& I had my band.. I could take anywhere..since then I've also graduated to the the RC 50.. Loôper which is "mean as" bro..Wicked toy to play with..& recently have bought the "Line 6 Spider Jams".. Which have built in loopers..& I use these with the foot pedals on stage'.. But now of course want to move up to the "RC 300".. Which I see your using"..I like your style & what your doing bro.."Mean as..Wicked & Deadly".. I want to develop my own looping show for my gigs..& my peeps.. Like you.. Come to see me play my style of 'Gat'..& my shows are live in front of your face..with lots & heaps of audience participation .. I'm going to go & see Maton.. & buy that "Axe".. You've recommended & I will also show them what your doing with their "Axes"..& who knows they might sponsor you.. Like Our "Tommy Emmanuel".. He's "wicked too bro".. No looping or backing tracks.. Just him.. He plays a huge mean "Maton set of Gats".. Especially made for him by Maton.. Cheer's Carl.. Many thanks for your help bro'..I've been watching you "KZread" for awhile now.."Much aloha's & "Keep On Rockin Bro"...Doc J in Surfers Paradise, QLD , Australia..😎🎸🎤🔊🎩🌞

Mad skill bruv! Outstanding work - love it!
Thanks! I just got the RC-300 & I'm starting to explore it. This was really helpful.I also use the Boss ME-80 for all my effects, so I need to do some kind of a multi-level set up to reduce pedal sprawl.
great video and excellent tips. Thanks
Extremely helpful and nicely presented! Thanks...
Your video was useful and to the point. Thank you!
Very useful video thank you for your generous sharing of tips. Just got a second hand RC300. Looking forward to spending some QT with it 😋. Wishing you lots of success in the biz!

Awesome skills!
Deadly! Learned loads. Thanks dude.
Merci Carl ..Quel talent !
love this video!! Thanks
Great stuff, THANKS
I just hit subscribe because he said the house system needs to be flat. THANK YOU. I'm an audio engineer and can't believe how many people (self proclaimed audio engineers too) that don't understand this or gain structure for that matter. I thought his little jam on the looper was dope too. :)

Thanks mate!! Totally agree!! gain staging is EVERYTHING! Ive always said 90% of the job is setting the PFL and adjusting a fader. Everyone pushes the headroom too far and doesn't let the dynamics breathe. We would get along sir.
Hey, this is real nice, thanks Carl!
Thank you for putting this video up Carl. I loved your advice about setting your tone before it hits the PA. I've been working on just that for years now, different guitars, different pick-ups, DIs etc. And now I'm looking at adding looping to my live sound, basically to allow me to solo over my own rhythm loop and do harmony vox. I'm not sure whether the RC300 is overkill, so I'm reviewing all the options. Your video gave me a good insight into other ideas of what can be done with this technology.
Good pointers here as well as an awesome musician.
great tips. thanks
nice man. thank you. Just invested in the rc 300. I'm really excited about it. It's really helpful to see a pro do his thing on it! I've been a front man in bands for a long time and covid is killing me - so I need to start a new chapter being my own band. Thanks for the video!.
Do people actually realize how talented they are? Dude this is AMAZING!
you are a great guy1 thanks for your time
Nice tutorial Carl thanx
mind blowing 🤯
Thanks for the tips bro...
thanks for the video man.
Big fan from Paris 👍🏻👏👏
This was really neat to see! I've seen this being done before but didn't know how it worked. Nice little intro video to live looping :)

Hi Carl - Thanks so much for this video, there are not many that go into such great detail regarding the actual nitty gritty of the live situation. Thanks to you I've found a use for my expression pedal as a volume control - fully back cuts the input volume by just over half, so I know I'm safe to layer for a while without things becoming muddy and upsetting. Love your work, sir!
@carlwockner

Thanks Mate, not sure if you know but you can actually set the minimum and maximum state of the expression pedal. So if you wish you can set the Expression pedal to go from 0 volume through to 200% volume. Id suggest ranging from 0-100% volume, the you can just use it to alter the input signal into the loops:)

Yes thats a really good use of the expression pedal ; input level... as Carl said RECORD the right mix levels, its your only hope, you can't remix live later

@@carlwockner Sorry Carl I should have respoded to this a long while ago - yes I had come across those settings, but decided that a quick and dirty 'volume cut' for all inputs was more useful than a full volume range from 0-100... thanks so much for the advice man. Our show wouldn't be half as good without your insight.

@@davidyellowstar4910 Hey David - sorry for the delayed response! Pleased to meet you! Yes - it's one of the absolute most important things i had to learn: You're actually mixing the song as you record it. Add to this an audience or real humans and the potential for disaster with every overdub, and it's quite a recipe for the cold sweats!
Bravo!❤
Great video.
Amazing talent...ty
Thank you, Carl!!

Thanks Carl!
Thank you, great info for loop noob like me
