Chasing Tone - Guitar Podcast About Gear, Effects, Amps and Tone

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Brian has been burning the candle at both ends as they say as he has been working on number of new circuits. This leads the guys onto a discussion about a certain green simian themed pedal that has been literally meme'd to death. There has also been a lot of slightly dubious information circulating the interwebs about the circuit design of this particular pedal so Brian breaks it down and gives us a look at what made this pedal different.
Brent Mason is being inducted into a very prestigious event and Brian has been asked to pick out his favorite songs and it has caused his brain to melt and provokes Blake and Brian into some very bizarre a capella guitar stylings. Richard does his best to ignore and tells us a little about some playing he's been enjoying.
Finally the guys get onto Part Two of the deep dive into DAWs and Richard immediately goes down the wrong path. They guys correct him and start off by talking about miking up a guitar and recording into a DAW and Brian gives us a few choice tips on placement, phasing, and mullets. Richard lets us in on his delay secrets and also offers practical tips for not frying your cpu. There is BIG coyote news this episode too...Ponzi pedals, Spongebob Brianpants, Mass spray confusion, Google plus, Shameless plug, Hot meth and fresh coffee ...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

453 - Deep Dive into DAWs - Part 1

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Richard suffered some time travelling issues as he rolled into this show and feels a new affinity with his American chums as a result. Brian, on the other hand, goes political again and Blake indulges in some Anglophobic aquatic hate speech before announcing his undying love for a new piece of gear.
Brian has to write a lot of "Q"s and the guys are suspicious about his motivations for doing so and of course Chat GPT comes back in to focus. Richard has been learning about how some educational establishments are tackling the growing problem of Chat GPT teaching and Brian quickly dismissed his views.
There was a message from a listener this week (Thanks Nick) which asked whether the guys would have a little dive into the world of DAWs and guitar recording so the guys attempt to do just that with mixed results. This episode feels extremely on topic. Must be something in the water. Oh look Richard messed up another initialism, business as normal then.Tropical fish capacitors, Ai generated podcasts, Bill Microsoft, Fungi, Focuswangler 2000, Lemon Curry?...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!

455 - What is a plugin? it's the final part of the DAW deep diversion!

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for an all-new episode of the Chasing Tone Podcast!
Blake has got some new toys and it causes much annoyance to Richard within 60 seconds and this in turn leads to irregular vitamin suspicions and a tale of Blake's Grandfather's Mexican shopping adventures. Meanwhile Brian has established what day it is and Richard schools him in the ways of time traveling and 90's rave moves.
It is the final part of the DAW deep dive and it starts off with a disclaimer about terminology and professionalism in journalism. Brian then goes into the nature of Reverb and plugins and IRs and talks about using it in a recording environment a little before telling us about some Wampler Pedals that he are available from IK multimedia. There is some exclusive plugin news and Blake has a neat hack for increasing your ability to add effects to tracks in your DAW. Richard then manages to confuse himself by multitasking and gets various things wrong multiple times.
There were some leaked pedals which the guys discuss and pay particular attention to a control choice. Gibson have launched an expensive tribute to the original "Greeny" Les Paul and a friend of the show has bought one which leads to some silly product placement and a discussion about why it actually represents great value for money.
Tetra high cannibal, Alien abductions, Morley volume pedals, Red Leicester, Dirty pot...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!
