thmn.to/thocf/78zwp9kv03

Last video for 2024, as it was a question recently, here's a proper rundown of my room/lights/microphone and camera setup and also how i shoot and then edit videos using Davinci Resolve

Lights and Camera information below

Sony Zv-1 setup: F1.8 , 1/50 , 4k 25fps , 400 ISO
DJI Pocket3: 50-800 ISO , 1/50, AWB , D-log 10bit

I'm using one of these LUTs depending on the shot + small tweaks afterwards
alexruskman.gumroad.com/l/vision2383

For all things Davinci Resolve / editing, i'd highly recommend this channel @MrAlexTech

I'll just add my must have custom keybinds for DVR which really speed things up

tilde key : undo (saves having to do ctrl+z , super quick)
1: split clip
2: ripple / start to playhead (cuts and moves clip all the way to the left)
3: ripple / end to playhead (cuts and moves clip all the way to the right)
4: ripple delete (deletes and moves things back)
5: delete (saves me having to move my left hand to the right side of the keyboard)

$Secret Weapon: Scene Controllers - Fractal Axe Fx3 / FM9 / FM3 Heres a look at Scene controllers , what they are and how you can use them For me I find them particularly useful for say morphing reverbs between two different tones, given that on the FM3 (a mark1 in my case) its limited to one reverb block This was done on the latest official firmware 10 follow me on IG here : https://instagram.com/paulbradshawguitar/ Support me by using any of these links: ►Thomann Affiliate🔊: https://www.thomann.de/de/index.html?offid=1&affid=3523 ►Gear I Use 🔊: https://thmn.to/thocf/fi5qa1i74l ►All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►Buy me a coffee / NAM + TONEX packs ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar ✨Lights GVM : https://bit.ly/3OP5BYI GVM SD200b/softbox - https://bit.ly/4gbw9zK Enter the code Paulgvm to get 10% off your order there.

Tonex One - affiliate link: https://thmn.to/thoprod/586125?offid=1&affid=3523 The IK Multimedia Tonex ONE especially with the new FX update, is quite a nice contender, given that you can capture your signal chain from the Fractal unit (complete with Multiband compressor, EQing etc...) so youll have the same tone on the go There are some limitations and things to bear in mind, but thought Id share this in case its useful for some of you out there, this applies to my use case scenario, we all have different setups, but given how dialed in digital rigs are these days, its great to have an option that has the same tone, should anything go wrong Guitar is an Ibanez RGDIX6PB with Evertune retrofit, Häussel Vin + ceramic pickup in the bridge ►►► Thomann Affiliate🔊: https://www.thomann.de/intl/thlpg_fi5qa1i74l.html ►►► All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►►► Buy me a coffee ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►►► All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar ✨Lights FGEN Softbox set : https://amzn.to/4dL5QOA Ambitful A1 : https://amzn.to/4dHqn6B Raleno Video Light: https://amzn.to/4dJ5V5n Phillips Hue: https://amzn.to/4f3NCcd 📸 Cameras Sony ZV-1 : https://amzn.to/4dHqn6B DJI Osmo Pocket 3 : https://amzn.to/4eI856G 💡Accessories: Table camera stand : https://amzn.to/3BFDwjg Camera Table mount: https://amzn.to/3NlWpdQ TIME STAMPS 00:00 Intro 00:23 Fractal FM3 preset setup 01:36 TONE Fractal FM3 vs Tonex 02:01 Limitations 02:24 TONE switching / no spillover , slight audio gap 02:37 Extra bits and pieces 03:13 TONE Tonex vs Fractal FM3 03:41 Functionality + Midi concerns 04:31 Thanks for watching #fractalaudio #tonex$ $Dreamy / ambient - Blue Skies Preset - Fractal FM3 / FM9 / AXE FX 3 Heres something i put together while programming new patches with the new firmware, it was the cleanish scene from my main preset with Drogher sorry for some of the audio clicks, for some reason it did that during the recording, didnt catch it until after the upload i was dialing things in for firmware 8 for my new preset for Drogher , we have like 2-3 cleanish passages, thanks to gapless on the FM3 i can switch amps properly now =) I liked the sound of the Euro Blue model for an edge of breakup clean with humbuckers, had a nice response to picking attack and as i was experimenting with the Euro Uber model for distortion, seemed like a good match in essence the magic is using two delays , a DMM style delay @ 1/4 dot before the amp , and then a stereo tape @ 1/4 after the amp you get this cascading/bouncy sort of feel which is great, and the first analog style repeats into the front of the amp get a bit of saturation/hair depending on how you pick put some other bits and pieces in there if you want to solo over/loop etc.. preset attached here, or otherwise within my downloads download below, thanks for checking it out ►►► All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►►► Buy me a coffee ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►►► All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar #guitar #guitarist #fractalaudio #tutorial #tutorials #walkthrough #tone #how #howto #ambient #postrock$ $Setting up a Momentary HOLD effect - Fractal AXE FX 3 / FM3 / FM9 Today were looking at control switches, how i use them in a certain way, and how we can use them creatively to not only recreate some pedal functionality such as the Digitech Ricochet, but also use it on other effects blocks, a very strong tool within the fractal unit You can specify the switch within FC-Edit with one of your own layouts, instead of doing FC Per Preset , you just select one of your usual switches to be Category : Control Switch Function : Momentary/Latching as you wish Control Switch : CS1 / 2/3/4/5 to your liking just bear in mind the HOLD functionality to keep that unassigned on that switch Leons excellent videos on control switches with G66: https://youtu.be/l1mVXQVyP9I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLKNGiFBafE and otherwise Roshs excellent video on per preset switches below: Rosh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKndCClX8Dg ►►► All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►►► Buy me a coffee ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►►► All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar using my PRS S2 Standard Singlecut FM3 mark1 Firmware 7 TIME STAMPS 00:00 Intro 00:58 Control Switches 01:04 Preset build 02:16 Footswitch setup 05:10 Ricochet - 1 button whammy 10:57 One button WAH 13:10 Latching control switch demo 14:46 Delay block examples 19:14 Outro #guitar #guitarist #fractalaudio #metal #metalguitar #tutorial #tutorials #walkthrough #tone #how #howto #digitech #prs$

$Noise Gate setup for METAL : Fractal FM3 FM9 AXE FX3 Heres a walkthrough and setup of a super tight and aggressive noise gate within your Fractal audio FM3 / FM9 / Axe Fx 3 Ive gone through this in a previous video, give the questions ive seen on various videos and online thought Id do a separate video on setting up a noise gate more specifically for metal This is akin to setting up something like a Fortin Zuul, Lichtlaerm Key & the gate, within the Fractal unit The benefit of using a sidechain style gate means you can go nuts with distortion and gain while still maintaining a super tight gate ►►► Thomann Affiliate🔊: https://www.thomann.de/intl/thlpg_fi5qa1i74l.html ►►► All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►►► Buy me a coffee ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►►► All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar ✨Lights GVM SD200b/softbox - https://bit.ly/4gbw9zK Enter the code Paulgvm to get 10% off your order there.

Is Extended or Optimized better for TONEX Captures?
