Signal To NoiseEpisode 40: The Swiss Army Knife of Guitar RigsIn Episode 40 Sue Decree returns to talk guitar rigs. Sue and I have been making music together for the last 20 plus years and in that time she has maintained a predominantly digital rig. With advances in technology her rig has not gotten better and better sounding over the years, it also shrunk. She's gone from 14 guitars, 4 synths, a drum machine, and a 4-track recorder and an Apple II se to 4 guitars, her Mac laptop and line 6 port. We discuss why her rig has dramatically reduced in size and expanded in sounds and versatility. Let us know what your rig is li...

Signal To NoiseEpisode 39: David Karon of KHDK ElectronicsMy Ghoul Screamer arrived in April. I unboxed it with giddy excitement and have not stopped gushing about it since. I am still THRILLED with that pedal and watch eagerly for every bit of news that KHDK puts out. Fast forward to July when the teaser video hit for the Scuzz Box. Now that giddy excitement has turned into a tone obsession, and getting the chance to talk with David about the KHDK approach to tone was a great experience. As a music fan first, i've spent hours, months and years obsessing over particular tones on records and struggled to re...

Signal To NoiseEpisode 38: TC Electronic WireTapWelcome to Episode 38! This episode is all about the Wiretap by TC Electronic. A few weeks ago I wandered into a Guitar Center and found the Wiretap featured as the "Pedal of the week". I really didn't know much about it other than it was a recorder. So I sat down, plugged it in and started noodling. Right away I fell in love it. It's not sexy, it does not change my sound at all, but as I noodled with it I realized that with as easy as it was to use, I would never lose a riff again. Literally...

Signal To NoiseEpisode 37: The Dark Beauty of Viberant ChordsA running theme in my episodes lately has been around the music industry itself. What's the current state? Where is it headed? In Episode 37 I sat down with Sue DeCree and Liz Tapia to talk about the music industry and how two women who also happen to be Metal Heads are making their mark on music. Sue and Liz are very talented musicians who not only like the heavy stuff but also happen to have some classical training as well. Their perspective is insightful and entertaining!

Signal To NoiseEpisode 36: Signature GuitarsIn episode 36 we discuss the new Pete Townshend signature stratocaster from Fender. I'm really torn on this guitar as I discuss in the episode. Until early this guitar came out I did not bat an eye at signature guitars, but this one made me question everything.
Also in this episode I am trying something new. I'm using an audio OM-2 mic to record myself and I'm also demoing pedals live at the same time. It's the first time I've tried this and I already learned something.... Always set up a way to monitor. At the end of the show when...

It was my only way to consume new music as a kid so I searched up and down the dial and would wait for hours to tape my favorite song. I am joined by Bryan Ganey who used to work in Radio. Bryan pulls the curtain back and exposes the mysteries of radio for us. For more about Bryan and his amazing journey that he shares at the end of the show visit his Blog.

After Episode 33 went live, I got a message on Instagram from my buddy Bob asking when he could be a guest on the show. I asked what his ideas were and next thing you know we had the outline for this week's episode. Bob has a background in graphic design and has not only made graphics for me to use at work, he also taught me just enough in photoshop to be dangerous. Since he has an extensive knowledge in design, iy was fun to sit down and talk about his thoughts on how Image and graphics impact a band's im...

It was a dark and stormy night… no….really. We recorded this podcast on June 6th and it was raining cats and dogs. Skype was giving us issues and we had to re-connect several times. It was a rough night with great conversation and in the end a good time was had by all. Due to a technical issue on my part, about half or better of the recording is missing. I explain in the podcast. Anyway, these guys are all great guys with interesting points of view, so if you want to see what else they are up to y...

My Holey Board covered in pedals.
For years when ever I would use pedals, I would just toss them in my gig bag. When I finally decided to get a pedal board, I bought an SKB. At the time SKB was noted for its durable products and I got a lot of mileage from that board. It had built in power and a soft case. It did the job and saw a lot of mileage. Eventually I outgrew the board. It was big and bulky, but did not hold that many pedals. Thus began my search for...

My trusty Yeti microphone and Coke.
In this episode I am joined by my friend Chris. Chris and I talk about everything from art and awards to baseball and building pedals. The big topic is “are we losing knowledge from generation to generation?”. Everyday I look around and feel like the world is lowering the bar instead of raising it. But then other times I feel like we have made quantum leaps forward. The whole show was inspired by a video on YouTube about building a tremolo pedal., So I posted that Video below. Tune and see what...

It was supposed to match up with both of the YouTube videos I posted, but hey I forgot to hit the record button on part 2. What can I say? I’m REALLY excited about this pedal. I will post more as I play with the pedal more. The first 3 minutes are just me opening the box and...

I have to say I was really excited to put this episode together. It gave me a chance to try out a lot of things at once. First and foremost I got to sit down with the Germ from Caleb Cook at Hazel Effects and put it through
the paces. I really like the sound our this pedal and how it changes from guitar to guitar. It enhances qualities already inherent to the guitar driving it. Next, I experimented with the wattage control on my Vox AD30 VT. One of the big selling points for me on that amp was t...

I love Metal, and especially bands like Dillinger Escape plan and Periphery. Before I was a metal head, though my parents and grandparents made sure I had a very wide exposure to music. Growing up I listened to classic rock, big band jazz, 50's and 60's pop and rock. I enjoy the arrangements that went into some of the early pop music. Some songs were very sparse and some were quite elaborate. Some required some amazingly creative thinking on the part of the recording engineers to achieve...

Years ago I worked for a small music store. I taught lessons, worked the sales floor, did minor repair, helped with piano moving and deliveries, and eventually built up the small guitar department. It was a fun job and I really enjoyed being a part of so many aspects of the music industry, may favorite part of the job was going to NAMM. We were a samll store so going to NAMM every year did not make sense for us, but we still went a few times, including a trip to the Anaheim show. What I loved about NAMM was s...
2013-07-2621 minSignal To NoiseEpisode 20: Ben Weinman of Dillinger Escape Plan
Since I discovered "Heavy Metal" in my early teen I have always been drawn to it's extremes. Whether it was the extreme speed of Metallica's "Master of Puppets" album, or the even more extreme speed and unintelligible vocals of Indestroy (early Death Metal), I have always been on the look out for what was next. I wanted heavier, faster, louder, crazier concepts. For me that is what Metal has always been about. Look at where we started with Black Sabbath. At that time no one sounded like that. Look at what Anthrax did with "I'm The Man". In 1987 very few m...

Well, what I didn't know is that Pearl Drums were also located in Nashville and that a friend of mine who lives in the area happened to just purchase a custom Pearl Drum set based on Pearl's Reference series. As you can imagine, I jumped at a chance to see it, play it and talk about it, so in Episode 19 I sat down with Chris of the band Saturn Rising to discuss his...

This episode chronicles the guitar shops I visited while in Nashville, the new Tremelo pedal I picked while I was there, and it was all done in my...

Dave and I are both technology enthusiasts and cover everything from the old cassette 4-Tracks to the beginning of Podcasting, to where the iOS can take us. Looking back, I asked mostly questions about using the app and I forgot ask questions about developing the app....so...

So much so that I have walked right past scantily clad women at trade shows to see the cool new guitar or pedal not even noticing the women I walked past. I love what a new piece of gear can do to your sound and how it can inspire the creative process. But when it comes right down to it, nothing beats good old fashioned talent. Ezra Furman is that talent. Just one listen to his record "The Year on No Returning" and you will be...

I am fascinated by the amount of new twists and turns out their from guitars, to guitar picks, to guitar pedals. A couple months back I discovered a project called "The Germ". This project caught my attention because it was a germanium fuzz pedal hybrid that is hand wired, once I heard the demo...

A year ago I would never thought this possible, but everyday someone somewhere seems to come up with a way to push the envelope of what an iPad (or any iOS device for that matter) can do. So let's back up to April 2011. In Early 2011 The iPad 2 had been announced, and with it Garage band for iOS. At the time of that announcement I was saving to get a Macbook to replace my 2005 iBook (which was still running quite well and still is today!). Once I heard...
