Avec la flopée de sons divers et variés du dernier album, l'a dû se marrer à tout programmer le pépère Wilson.
Citation:
"The POD XT only gets used on Blackfield or No Man gigs when he can't bring his normal setup or very rarely on some older demos, but not an any of the albums.
On the next tour we will use a rackmount POD and maybe the XT live for the Baritone guitars so that we don't have to bring an extra rig.
99 percent of the guitar sounds on all the major label albums are amps,
mostly Marshalls on the last few albums with some Bad Cat mixed in.
He will at times run the amp sounds through different plug ins such as Lo Fi and D FI to alter them. The other one percent are sounds he "creates" with the Amp Farm plug in run through several other plug ins to invent sounds that are not amp like in quality. He did an amazing ambient guitar album completely in this manner last year, I think under the Bass Communion name.
In the early days, he used a Sans Amp combined with an AC 30
Amp Farm is so good now, that he demos all the parts in that plug in, then brings them to me, and we replace them with amps. You would freak if you knew how good his demo guitar sounds are from Amp Farm.
The POD rumour has been going around for years because he used the gen 1 POD on demos for a short time, but Amp Farm is so good the last several years, that he mostly demos with that plug in. At times the POD rumour was perpetuated by Line 6 as we briefly worked with the company and used some of the effects in the early days and checked out the amps, but went with Bad Cats live instead.
A good rule of thumb is, if it sounds like an amp, it is, if it sounds
really whacked, could be any combination, amp, amp farm, , farm animals, lamp, sink, or of all the above. He is a very creative individual and has no rules on sounds, excepting they must be good."
