Pretty sad that you spent all of that money to play cover songs from a band that really isn't anything great. Try being a real musician and write your own music and find your own sound.
Bro that setup kicks ass! I see the time you put in. I see the effort. Great job dude. I been playing tool since I was 15. Recently stopped playing. Knew a lot of songs from each album. Haven’t learned any songs from their new material and I feel like it is killing me. Great to see you doing what you like instead of listening to people and their opinion. I’m sure you play other music too, your ears just love to hear Tool , much like mine. Keep it up bro , Adam may need a backup at any given time !!!!
Thanks for going through all this. I'm trying to recreate something close on my helix. Just not the same as a tube amp. I was one of the lucky ones that was able to purchase the new Adam Jones Les Paul Standard!! Hopefully I can't get close with everything. Thanks again
I found out, for the virus, Adam uses A3 +1 octave for the live version of sober! Also, the version of opiate they were doing live for 2022, is also on A1
when I saw the first tarus petals I was blown away then you show then guitar petal board and I'm all like well shit son kids not playing around at all !
I was considering a Virus T1 / Ti2. Is this A1 setting sound possible through one of those, or is this Virus A the only one that had it? Something close would work, but I just love this sound!
Awesome shit man! Quick question if you have the time. Any idea if the delay time for Lateralus and Pneuma are the same? I see you using the other 2 delays for Pneuma or Tempest so I was curious if that coincided with the DD-3 you were using as well. I'm using a DD20, and I'm trying to do a tool preset (or two if needbe) as the band I play in rehearses those two songs for fun. Cheers!
Automotive rubbing compound should take that smudge off your head stock, just be careful not to buff right through your lacquer. Sweet rig man impressive!
Hi! excellent video, could you please tell me in which songs does Adam Jones use the boss chorus pedal? I'm curious. Thank you very much, greetings from Mexico! 🎸
@@antonioppk_6433 oooohh siii en invincible tenía la duda, suponía que lo usaba pero no estaba seguro, yo esa canción la toco con chorus todo el rato y suena genial, saludos bro! 🎸
Where did you get or how did you build the physical pedalboard? I’ve always liked how he had the angled second tier, but I’ve yet to be able to find anything similar.
Can you share the settings used in your amp? I have the Mark:25 and the Diezel pedal. I wonder if I could make the Mark:25 to sound like a Diezel VH4 like you.
Hey dude, Can you name the patches used on the Virus? It would be really helpful. I don't mean A1 and so on. I am referring to the names like Taurus and what not.
hey this may be a dumb question but i’m curious as to why you need 2 PSM-5s? in the video you stated that one of them has all of your effects/modulation pedals and then the other one only connects to the tuner pedals. wouldn’t it just be easier to add the tuners to the beginning of the loop?
Hey man, I’m probably really overthinking this and need major help understanding. How are you and or Adam getting those clean tones with the volume pedal without any major volume drop because if I just plug my VP JR direct into my Mesa I have major volume drop from high gain to clean. Thanks!
old two channel dual rectifier, or a marshall superlead jmp, for cabs it has to be 1960av for marshall and for the rectifier a mesa oversized straight/slant
Which foot midi controller do you have to control the virus? What’s that siren looking light you have to the left? I think I’ve seen it on stage before.
Would a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Solo Head 3-Channel 100-Watt Guitar Amp Head 2000 - 2009 work w/ the Diezel pedal work for that? They're a lot more affordable on the used market than yours (the two-channel from the 90s)
Do you use two MIDI cables to connect the Virus to the Roland? I just use one MIDI cable but the only mode that works from the Roland is the [Poly] mode or the Poly pedal option. The Mono/Bass mode option doesn't work. maybe it's a parameter in the Virus but I already update the OS. I wonder if there is an internal switch on the Roland that I have to reset. Any info will be highly appreciate it. Thanks.
I found this: Resetting the default values: • To reset the default values of the currently selected mode, hold down the selector of the corresponding mode (MONO, POLY, DRUMS, SOUND EFFECTS, MIDI CONTROLLER) while switching the PK-5A on. I will try...
After resetting the PK-5 I had to program the Bass MIDI channel by pressing the [Bass] then the MIDI CHANNEL selector 11, then press the [pedal] # 1, then press pedal [B] (Enter) to confirm the operation. All indicators briefly light to confirm your selection. Thanks anyway!!

@@antonioppk_6433 Thank you. I happened to see this before seeing your latest video where you explain it. I want to get one myself to play around with one of these days. Does the preset override all the different controls or did you have to figure out all those knob settings too?
On what songs does he use the EQ? I never understood why he had that and a booster. I personally like EQs better. I also want to mention that back in the day, it was rumored that he used a Boss CE-5 in the Salival version of Pushit and a Voodoo Labs Tremolo on the first verse of The Pot, but this was never verified. ¡Saludos desde Morelia, México!
I had the exact same question. Today i got my own Dod FX40b. And now i can say.... you need this EQ to get MORE Mids. Than you have the Chaka chaka sound^^ I alrdy have the mids on max on my Diezel vh4, but it wasn't enough^^. Hope that helps.
@@scrinbotthis makes sense. I think Adam has the eq on the whole time. In this video when he turned the eq on he didn’t get feedback at all like he said.
I don't understand why people don't play their own music. The only reason people idolize TOOL is because they have really good recording techniques. This is coming from a die-hard TOOL fan. Breaking Benjamin blew all our minds with his recording perfection of Ember
Some people like to listen to songs, some people like to sing along, some like to play along. Tool songs are rather fun to play as well, not too hard or easy.
Because it's fun. Do you ever sing along to songs? If he has the means and he wants to, why shouldn't he emulate tool? It clearly makes him happy. Me personally, I emulate Adam Jones sounds on a far less expensive rig and it sounds good and makes me happy, but I don't get the hate.

That virus is so cool man
He also uses the access virus A in the grudge. Watch videos from 01/02

roland pk5

if you have that mesa head you shouldnt use the vh4 pedal. i know a lot of people that use the amp by itself and it sounds amazing
how did you hook up the pk-5 to the virus and then to the speakers???
with a midi cable, and then it has a speaker output
I never understood putting tape, most of the time on Boss pedals. Whats the purpose?
its glow in the dark tape, not sure why he has it either since he already has the 6 inch lights!
