Rick Beato At That Pedal Show! [Recording Guitar Tips, Producing & More]

Музыка

Rick drops in to chew the fat on guitar tone, recording and all that good stuff
Welcome friends and thank you for joining us for this very special episode. We are delighted to welcome the incomparable Rick Beato to the show! Rick is a musician, educator, producer and well, all-round sensation on KZread, having clocked up close to 3.5 million subscribers at the time of this video. That’s about 10 times That Pedal Show, just to put it into perspective.
Rick contacted us to say he was heading to the UK, so we jumped at the chance of inviting him to Schwangri-La for a chat.
There is sooooo much stuff we could have talked about, but we decided to centre on a general discussion around producing and recording guitar. Rick’s knowledge and insight on the subject is a treat for all of us.
Please note, Rick doesn’t play in this video. For whatever reason he didn’t feel like playing today.
And neither did Dan, so don’t get all handbag that it’s me playing and not them (Mick here, hello. Must be something I said?!).
Enjoy the video, and after that, head on over to That Pedal Show Store to see what yer can find!

    Thanks to Mick, Dan and you Rick for sharing your passion and knowledge. About the ability of music to reinvent itself, the impact of DAWs, analog vs digital : I encourage you to go watch Fred Again..'s Tiny Desk Concert. There's no guitar in it but it's the best of both worlds : real instruments playing, emotion, mastering digital tools, sound shaping and the driving pulse brought by the techno revolution.

    What makes Beato great? He obviously have a fantastic memory. When he has heard or learned something one time, he remember it forever. His mind is obviously also very good at problem solving.

We talked for awhile and he asked me if I knew any stones songs. I started too play Angie. As it turns out it was his favorite stones song. Hard to believe that was so many years ago

    I kinda wish I didn’t learn barre chords first, I wish I had learned inversions first. To be fair, learning the “E” and “A” shape barre chord is a fantastic way to learn your root notes and you’re well on your way to understanding the fretboard.

    ​@Smell The Glove Learning the open chords and barre chords first is best for memorisation and placement/muscle memory. Then ideally revisiting them ,music-theoretically, later on and seeing the r,3,5 etc is a more satisfactory way of understanding the major scale and its magic. " Out of the emptiness. Salvation !! ".

    I think I was closer to 17 when I actually went in and tackled F barre. When I look back at it, the song I was learning at the time might not even use the full F barre. Still, I learned it because it felt like the right time to do it. Nowadays I "Hendrix" it most of the time.

Equally, Mick and Dan are endearing to watch, which is obviously why they're so popular. Great Show!

    This is a very inspiring talk. I am about to turn 33, next week, I have a Master's degree in philosophy and I am in the final stages of writing my doctrate. Just recently, I decided that I want to do something completely different and study Audio Engineering, once I finished my Phd. This video seriously gives me hope for my future. ❤

    Not trying to start a fight, I just don’t talk to many philosophy PhDs. Over the past few years in the US our government has been talking about having blue collar net tax payers such as myself pay for college graduates student loans…. Since you’re a philosophy doctor, do you think this is ethical? I mean, on its face it’s unfair, that’s obvious. Again, not trying to talk shit or anything, just like to get your viewpoint.

    Why not? First degree and PhD is COMPLETELY useless. May as well go ahead and get another completely useless degree. Then you can become an untalented, useless person and drag on the economy like the majority of your generation.

    @@smelltheglove2038 Why should I have to pay for ethanol subsidies or bailing out people who choose to live in hurricane zones? Because we live in a society. Having young people with less debt to worry about is good for the economy in the long run because there is more freedom of movement from one job to another and entrepreneurship. Same is true of healthcare not tied to employer.

    @@bbdeffect I don’t think we should have to do any of the things you mention. However, people that get hit with hurricanes usually have home owners insurance… most states it’s a law. Having lived in Va. Beach while my father was forced to move into the area because he was in the navy, and having lived through many hurricanes, I can say leaving the east coast of the United States un-settled is an asinine idea. It’s just as asinine as comparing a force of nature to people who signed a contractual agreement to repay a loan, then forcing those who didn’t sign that contract to pay for it. Economics aside, how is it ethical to force someone to pay for a contract that you signed and they didn’t. Also, if college was worth it, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation. If it was such a good investment, the person who went to college shouldn’t have any issue paying back said loan. As it stands now, if your education doesn’t get you job where you make enough to pay back the loan, you simply wasted time and resources. Your want to go to college is taking food out of my kids mouths. I took out a loan for my work truck as a young man. Since it’s bad for young people to be saddled in debt, and since my work truck is an investment for my future and helps the community by getting me to peoples homes to repair their heating and air, should I get tax payers to pay my loan too?
