EffectologyElectro-Harmonix Effectology, Vol.11 Crystal-Shimmer Effects
By Bill Ruppert
Welcome to Electro-Harmonix's "Effectology" series, in which we create a remarkable
collection of impossible sounds using just a regular guitar and EHX effect pedals!
No keyboards, samplers or midi pickups were used.
In this episode Bill Ruppert demonstrates how to produce beautiful Crystal-Shimmer effects
as well as a new sound called "Symphonic".
To create the first two clips seen in the video I wired the effect pedals in parallel.
Placing the effects in a parallel chain opens up new and beautiful sounds not possible when using a standard series connection.
The third example "Symphonic" places the effects back in a series connection.
A volume pedal is used to swell the chords in and remove the attack of the guitar giving the guitar a string section type sound.
Its a beautiful sound from just one guitar!
The clip is a improvisation on the song "Adagio for Strings"by Samuel Barber.
This music has been used in many great movies you may have seen.
