The RAT • Review for Gilmour and Pink Floyd sound
Музыка
Here's the review for the Proco Rat, distortion pedal used by David Gilmour especially in his live performance during The Division Bell Tour in 94.
One of my favourite distortion pedals because of its versatility: in fact it can cover all the eras, from the 70s to latest tones.
RIG:
Money: Dynacomp - RAT - Nova Delay 310ms
What do you want from me: CS2 - RAT - Nova Delay 500ms - RT20
Castellorizon: CS2 - BD2 - RAT - Nova Delay 440ms
The Rat in Castellorizon is set with Filter 50% and Distortion 55%
I forgot to put the picture on screen.
Recorded with Mooer Two Stones pre-amp directly into Scarlett Solo 3rd gen.
Software: FL Studio

GODDAMN! YOU NAILED THAT! and i have been a david guilmour super fan for 30 years AWESOME!
amazing and marvelous as always
Just bought one after your video, the first distortion I've owned for decades as I was using overdrives & then just my amps (Victory & Orange) cranked. This pedal is giving me a really musical feedback when cranked & notes just sustain forever and that's without a compressor! loving it... thanks
Thanks for this Francesco !! I have a vintage RAT and will explore it again. Beautifull sounds as always.

Brilliant as always.
Excellent playing! Very Gilmourish ahah. It's good to hear the rat on Gilmour style leads, a breath of fresh air when on most other rat reviews/demos on youtube people can't seem to break out of the grungy rock zone, all while praising the pedals versatility.
Ogni volta che provi questi suoni vado in estasi, perfetti!!
Stumbled on the channel. Great work. Tone is perfect.
I bought mine second hand about two years ago, and I love it more everyday. Very versatile pedal indeed.
Sounds awesome man! That 90's bit was spot on!!
The best Channel of the KZread .
Tanta roba. Scelte azzeccatissime...mi hai fatto venire voglia di rispolverare il mio Rat! Bravo!
Grande Francesco ottimo lavoro 👍
The best!!! Congratulations
First I want to say excellent playing, and it was nice hearing a different sound from the pedal great video and again excellent playing.

WWWOOOOWWWWW. Que show, meu irmão. Parabéns!
Comunque come sempre contenuti di altissimo livello e con questo video confermi la buona impressione che mi fece il RAT, ovvero che ci copri tante sonorità differenti e suona bene in ognuna di esse.
Cool sound and great playing mate. Done the master proud.
What a fantastic tone!! I wish I could sound like that...
Gran video Fra! E che suono!
Keep up the good work man!
I never knew Gilmour used a Rat. I've used it since it was recommended along with a Roland JC-120 at Manny's Music in NYC in 1986. I had a lot of tube snobs snicker when I rolled that in to many gigs but come up after to say how great it sounded and "that's SOLID STATE???", ha ha. I used two, one with the distortion set at 9pm and one at 1030pm. After 3 Rolands and back issues, I now use a Boss Katana mk100, but I still have the Rat hooked up.

I have been accumulating Rat pedals since the 80s. Most are now for display but anyone interested you might look at their Deucetone which is two Rats and on the back has 2 switches so you end up with a lot of possibilities.
Great job man 👍🏻

Nicely done Francesco. For years I didn't 'get' the Rat, but it is an incredibly versatile pedal for Gilmour (and other) tones. I have BYOC 'Mouse' with 6 clipping modes that is even more versatile.

Im surprised on how versatile the rat is. I think i need to add one to my board now.
Suoni veramente belli... devo riprenderlo il ProcoRat e rigiocarci perché l'ho un pò abbandonato. Grazie per la condivisione
Do you need to boost the RAT with a BD2 or tube driver? also, the booster come after or before the main distortion (RAT or muff)
Hi!!! This review is just awesome. I really like the tones you get there and that inspired me to get a Proco Rat for my own, but I can't find that Cornish setting. Can you share it, please?! Thank you!!!!
Man you always sound spot on!! Biggest Floyd Gilmour fan here. Im stuck wondering which pickup set to get. The emg or CS 69 ,ssl5 fat 50s...
This is so good. Further validates my obsession with my Rat. What amp settings do you use? Having trouble getting similar with my JTM45 even when I set the pedals the same
Bravissimo
what other pedals are you using with this one ? i have this exact one snd it doesn’t sound like this and i have a custom Strat and Super Reverb Amp
I went through at least 8 of these over the years, including the Vintage Rat and the Rat2. Honestly, I found them to all sound about the same with some minor differences. The only one I didn't like (and it's been ages) was the Turbo Rat.
Fantastic tone and playing.. mind sharing the dial settings for each different tone?
What was the RAT settings for Castellorizon?
Great video. May i know how you got the tone on video 3? Alot of sustain...
Could you show us that "Recorded with Mooer Two Stones pre-amp directly into Scarlett Solo 3rd gen. Software: FL Studio" part? Are you using IR anywhere? Cheers
Great playing man, really impresed... what amp did you use?
molto belle le timbriche degli effetti,e l'esecuzione indiscutibile, complimenti. mi sembrava che il pezzo g2 cornish costellorizon ,fosse poco chiaro, forse io avrei scelto un overdrive.ma è un idea mia personale ,non volevo dare insegnamenti e mi scuso. comunque ,complimenti molto professionale
I think this was as much of a review for the RAT as for the Mooer, can't believes these tones came from that little box! Did you add and IR or is it all the Mooer?
I can't make out the settings on the 70's Rat. What were they?

@Francesco - You are missing a Boss GE-7 graphic eq pedal 'after' the RAT (post) that Pete Cornish put wired together as one unit (could use a loop) in Gilmour big Cornish pedal board. He used the GE-7 to fatten up the RAT by boosting more lo-mids-midsand to make the Start-Rat combination cut through on stage & record. Search online for his Cornish board images for eq setting. I stumbled upon this with my early 80's big & small box Rats way back when I bought the pedals new. It is awesome!

@@gilmourtheory - Hey, sorry... I was just trying to address an Gilmoud issue others had brought up but didn't know if you were aware of the post Rat GE-7 eq's Gilmour he had used. Your tone here is great though and playing is super. BTW - I have 2 80's original & 2 90's big box reissue Rats. The can sound like a fender tweed deluxe for country to Neil young & Crazy Horse... then go to classic Marshall tones to grunge. For my money the 80's Rats are the best sounding/most versatile distortion pedals ever made. The with an EQ post Rat it take them to a whole different level.

Ciao Francesco, innanzitutto complimenti per l'ottimo lavoro e la dedizione che dedichi al tuo canale Pensi che il RAT possa essere più adatto a riprodurre i suoni più "taglienti" di delicate sound of thunder (rispetto a Pulse), oppure sarebbe meglio rimanere sul Muff e giocare diversamente col chorus e con il tube driver?

I shit you not I went on sweetwater to order this pedal 61 seconds into this video. Is that an impulse buy or what😅
A performance do guitarrista é muito top, mas faltou "presença" ao pedal. Em alguns trechos ficou sem a ênfase peculiar de guitarra solo tão característica do Gilmour.
I should have looked better, thanks !
forse troppo gain in quel RAT?
Closest gilmour tone ive heard to date. Always room for improvement but no one has come this close to his tone. The secret though is dave himself of course.
My rat has this very annoying sag with my humbucker equipped guitars
