I am a Gilliat too. Sidney Gilliat
Hello there!! First of all, thanks for the tutorial, really helpful. But I have a problem with the expression pedal and I don't know how to solve it. when I set the pedal to control the patch volume it works but it doesn't turn the volume all the way down. I checked the settings and the min. volume is set to 0 and the max. volume is set to 100. the max. volume works perfect but the min. volume doesn't goes totally off, I still have about 15/20 % of the volume. The pedal I have is the Boss EV-5 and yes I turned also the min. volume of the knob of that pedal to 0, but the min. volume still doesn't goes totally off. Did someone came across this same problem? I really apreciate any help. I don't know what else to do. Thanks a lot!!
Just great, I love it. Thank you for playing this tune.
Cool tutorial! I do have a question if you don't mind. How would I go about recording different length loops using the internal drum beat and starting the chorus from the beginning each time when looping guitar/vocals? Is the only way to do it to turn the LOOP SYNC & TEMOP SYNC OFF? Thanks! :)
I had the pleasure of watching your performance last year at the waterfront, and it was truly captivating. Your unique blend of pick and fingerstyle guitar techniques is absolutely mesmerizing. Since then, I've been eagerly searching for your videos on CZcams, hoping to experience more of your incredible talent. Thank you immensely for sharing your gift with the world.
Thank you so much, it's been quite a while since I posted anything to CZcams. It's been really busy but still playing out almost every day. I hope to get back to posting videos maybe later this year. All the best!!
Excellent performance 🎸😎🎶 New Subscriber added
Still here over a decade later.
I need a turntable. Is this still available for purchase..?
no, not anymore
That was cool. You have inspired me. Thank you.

This video was extremely helpful! Thank you! I know it's been a while but, if you are still monitoring your videos, I would like to know how you set up your guide to only come out of the sub output. Thanks again for the great video!
Nice to hear the video was helpful. Unfortunately, I haven't been using the RC50 for quite some time so I'm not sure what the routing would be.
I found it! Thank you so much!
Glad I could help!
Great performance!, I want to ask you, what kind of pick do you use? Thanks, greetings from Colombia!!
could you re-upload this in 4 k ?
Awesome and we got to hear him live last night! The man is amazing!!
Exactly what I need. Not much of this on CZcams so if it’s easy for you to make make more
Hey! Thank you for this video! I assigned the expression pedal of my RC300 to adjust the volume of the microphone in, but it just turns it on when down and off when up. It doesn't have the gradual effect you expect from a volume pedal. Do you have any idea why and what I can do to fix that? Thank you so much! 🙏
This is nikki anderson my mother does my hair
Audio quality 😬, the 90 sounds nicer ! , but thank you anyway
Just picked one of these bad larry's up and this was super helpful there are very few good videos online.
וואו🎉🎉😊
Great post John! Ben always made it look easy ❤
thanks!!
Very nice music and mastery of the guitar and rc50 too I have a simple question , is it possible to play over a recorded first track and then to switch in recording mode on track 2 (which would stop track1 playing ) , this is for live performance , I guess this is the single mode normal behaviour ? Brgds
Unfortunately I don't own the RC 50 anymore. I do have an RC 300 however I haven't done any looping in years. so unfortunately I will be unable to answer your question.
Great rendition sir.. you totally gilliatised it!
Thanks :-)
🥺
Amazing!
👍
👍
👍
Lol .....
Listening to this again after 14 years back when I was just learning my first few chords :)
Nice to hear you came back to listen again. Thank you 👍😊
@@JohnGilliat Your music and the guitar lines and progressions were engrained somewhere in my mind and I subconsciously attempted it during my practice this week then I remembered I watched this video of yours long ago. I only remembered the song name nachos so did a little searching and in the process learned a few nacho recipes and also rediscovered your amazing guitar playing, Pure class! Thank you! 🙂
One of the grooviest i ever heard
Thank you 😎
Thanks a ton for sharing Cz I wanna play beat 4 count and 2 loops individually deprecate lengths but it was starting the 1st loop end then playing so this helped me resolve
Good to hear that it.eas helpful 👍
An amazing video
Hello. Can you post the name of all the material you did set up to make this video. Also can you do tutorial to how to set up those equipment??. I do have some of them but don't know how to record with it RC50
The song is one of my own called nachos and it's from the CD that I recorded titled freedom. it's available on spotify. I have a lot of videos on how to play the song along with tabs and charts that you can find at yourguitarschool.com however I do not have the rc50 anymore so I do not have instructions on exactly how I created that video with the rc50
I LOVE this!! Such a good combination of instruments and such a great beat!
Thank you 👍😎
Thanks for your time and explain in that way. Finally a Good video about the RC 50 and how to use it
Good to hear that the video was helpful🙂
Thank you.
hi , my name momi, i can use this drum in my compose?
Yes, thanks for asking
You guys sound great! best wishes.
Thank you 👍😊
I am a huge fan brother.
Nice to hear you are enjoying the music! Thank you :-)
Awesome!!!
Thank you 😀
not 70 bpm but it sounds nice.
Loving this vibe! 😃
Thank you!
Beautiful music! You play fantastic
Thank you
I recorded this song off of NPR radio 10 years ago onto a cassette and it has been one of my all time favorite songs. I could never find the name of the song or artist until today. I had tried every music matching service I could find. I taught myself a sloppy beginner version of this song years ago, and am now trying to learn a more faithful version to you. Much love, and I really enjoy your playing. About to purchase some of your albums now!
So nice to hear you have been enjoying the song and it's very cool to hear you have been working on playing it. (I know there are a lot of notes!) Let me know if you ever need a little help learning it as we could always do a quick zoom lesson or the tabs are available from my website or at yourguitarschool.com. All the best!
@@JohnGilliat appreciate the reply. I will absolutely take you up on that!
Hello, it helps a problem with my microphone, it is recording very well and my guitar and piano, all very well, but when everything is already recorded and I want to sing it does not sound, it sounds very low, far away, I am supposed to keep the volume, what is it to sing, what happens??... I do my loops very well and they sound good, but when I want to sing the microphone is heard at a very low 1%
what about using a headset mic?
@@JohnGilliat I have never used... I use a Shure PG58 But it is strange because I see in other videos, people singing with the same microphone that loops and once the loops are done, the microphone is at a good level to sing over the recorded tracks
Excellent demo
Thank you 😊
Excellent. Could this all be done with FREE measure, without the rhythmic beats? I could record in the first track a specific length, and then the other tracks could be also set to free. My only question is whether the loops would align (eg., first track 5 seconds loop, and second track is 11. Will this mean that the second track would be on hold until the first track finishes its second repetition?). Thanks!
I haven't used my RC300 for a few years now, so I unfortunately do not have an answer for your question.
@@JohnGilliat What are you using now out of curiosity?
Just backing tracks
