With my eyes closed it sounds like a six people band. Incredibly smooth use of RC600 and all that other pedal board. Plus a great voice!

THANK YOU !!!! Epic opener and all those ..... just walking in+out like nothings happening.. my god.

Excellent in everything that you do... it really sounds great !

It is my dream to be able to loop like this.

I've been listening to Markus K. recently.....also will be listening to Matt....2 great inspirational players.

A year late !! Amazing skillz 👍🏼🏴‍☠️✌🏼

Amazing performance! Super inspirational. Thank you for sharing.

Awesome dude, sounds like a full band of dudes jamming together if you close your eyes

I saw a great interview with a Deadhead and they asked them, "What does it mean to roll away the dew?" .. they said, "It means it's time to dance" ... I can't help but tap my foot and boob my head when I hear it

Very nice use of the RC=600, great performance also!

Mind blowing!

Love this!! 👌🏻

Just WOW!

Fantastic ❤

Inspiring stuff!!

So much talent. Great stuff.

Killed it. Great energy dude!

Love it man. Thanks for the inspiration 🎵

Haven't heard this in years. Can't believe how well you captured the spirit of the song. Looking forward to hearing your music 🎶

Talented! Congratulations

Incredible 👏👏 not just an amazing musician but the dedication and knowledge to operate all that tec so easily is just mind blowing 🙏🙏

Are you able to do a video wheere you walk us through your setup and what instruments are you using and how you are triggering loops and samples and live looping please? That would be awesome. Also what is the mini piano you are using? Thanks

I'm using the Reface CP. It has a "hidden piano" sound in the software. You have to open it up and cut the lead from the circuitboard to the toy piano and then power cycle the keyboard. Search the web for hidden piano sound reface and you'll find out about it.

You have definitely helped me level up my looping game You have Soo much going on I hope to be 1/2 as good someday

Thanks! That's the way people are everywhere. People like to be told what they should be paying attention to, told what is good and what isn't. It's live music at a beer garden, they expect it to be just blah.. Glenn Gould could rise from the dead and play the Goldberg Variations at a beer garden and people would walk right by. Haha. It doesn't matter and it doesn't bother me one bit. The people that "get it", get it and the people that don't, don't. Most people need to be told what is good and what isn't so I appreciate it when people actually go out on a limb and pay attention and appreciate. So I appreciate you! Thanks! Believe it or not, at this place, everyone comes up to me at the end of the show and tells me they loved it. Sometimes they clap, sometimes they don't. But none of that matters. They're feeling the vibe and whether consciously or subconsciously they're all grooving along and I can feel it.

Matt, you always sound really good, and I thank you for sharing what you do. Just curious if you set all this up for every gig, or is this a house gig? Also, do you have a video that goes over your whole rig? Thanks!

@MattBoltonMusic

11 ай бұрын

Yes, I set up and break down everything for every gig. About 6 nights a week. I know it seems like a lot of stuff (which it is) but my setup and breakdown are extremely efficient. From turning off my car in the parking lot, I can be loaded in, set up and soundchecked in about 12-15 minutes. That's carrying everything into the venue, plugging it all in etc. The number one thing that takes up most of my time is setting up the stream. Titling the stream, checking the wifi, signing into the platforms, checking the signal, resetting the audio driver, connecting to the bluetooth MIDI for the stream mic mute, troubleshooting why the stream isn't working, etc. There are always issues with the stream. My PA sound and setup is easy and takes no time at all. If I didn't stream, the gig setup would be even faster. I can break down everything and load the car in about ten minutes. For example, I played a festival gig last weekend where I broke down all the gear, put everything in their respective cases, spoke to the patrons, got paid, carried everything to the artist parking lot, and drove away all in 21 minutes. At a festival! Bar gigs are WAY faster. I've spent a lot of time making sure my set up and breakdown are extremely efficient. For example, I've just switched to a new custom keyboard stand because it has TWO less knobs to tighten and loosen. That adds up over 100s of gigs. I also added a sustain pedal to the keyboard that also doubled as a Leslie speaker fast/slow switch. But the extra 30 seconds it took to get it out and plug it in and find the right spot on the floor to put it just weren't worth the benefit. Everything I add to the setup I have to do a time cost analysis. If it adds a minute of setup time, it REALLY better be worth it. Those minutes really add up. There is no video that goes over my whole rig and I have no plans to make one, sorry. Thanks for watching the streams and I'm glad you enjoy them!

It's all about the bass bout the bass bout the bass no treble. It's a POG! With lots of EQ, compression, gain staging, etc. Any bass pedal by electro harmonix does the trick as long as you EQ it and make it sound nice with some sound shaping but Electro harmonix gets you 90% of the way there.

@MattBoltonMusic

It has six tracks. You can put different sections of the song with different chord changes on different tracks, pages, etc. It's.....complicated. Takes a lot of time and practice.

This was amazing , great job . Do you just rely on the pa pointed at the crowd for monitors and have your levels set so you don’t get a lot of feedback while looping ?

@MattBoltonMusic

Жыл бұрын

Thanks! Yes, I just listen to the main speakers. Modern PA systems and modern microphones are very good at feedback rejection and suppression. The mic has a tight pattern and the line array speakers don’t have to be loud to project and be clear, evenly throughout the venue. So my volume is relatively low but the mix is heard crystal clear throughout. Sometimes, like last night I have my main speaker behind me and I send a mix to the venue’s stereo system. Those venues sound the best. I’m sending a low volume feed (like the stream mix) into the dozens of speakers already installed at the bar. And my main line array is behind me on stage. Crystal clear everywhere. The louder I need to be, depending on the venue, I move farther behind the mains. This particular venue of this show, the neighbors often complain so I’m not very loud at all. Just loud enough that everyone can hear clearly but not overbearing. I can’t stand when live music is too loud in a restaurant or bar. Check out my show from last night you can see the speaker is totally behind me.

I’m using an octave pedal and recording the bass parts live on the fly. You just didn’t notice I guess. 0:40 is where I start recording a bass part. Go to my channel and watch some of my more recent videos to see hundreds of hours of examples.

Sounds fabulous but still waiting to see somebody use more than 1 chord progression in a looping song? I thought a 6 section looper would finally enable this? Gorgeous use of several instruments here though…..
