How I loop Wicked Game (+ learn the lead part)

- How to loop Wicked Game as well as learn the lead part for acoustic guitar. I do 90% of this video using the Voicelive 3 pedal - amzn.to/2LvV6bs - and have programmed fx to switch between the different parts. I use a boss OC3 - amzn.to/2PTJFfO - to help create a bigger sound when I'm doing the percussion parts, and also later on when I drop out the second loop, and want to keep a reasonable amount of bottom end still around :)
The specific settings for all of that are in this video: • How I get my Bass Guit...

Hey todos ! Just a "little" thing : the lead part's first note is a B (Bb in your version). Pre-bending it is a good way to avoid bottlenecks and whammy bars !
Dude! I just actually listened to the song again and you are so right 👌 i thought it was just cause i was tuned to Eb but nope... i play the lead wrong 😂🤦♂️
Bro newbie to the channel, love the breakdown and your crusie swag! I know this content is a few years old now but still so relevant, many thanks for your time and effort❤🙏
welcome to the channel - and thanks so much for the comment - much appreciated! Happy looping and playing!
Hey everybody - I am soooo aware that I talk WAAAY too much in this and it's really long. I was going to cut down a bunch of parts of it, and then thought ya know what, it might actually be useful to some of you perhaps? Who knows? Anyway, watch what's useful and skip the rest!
Nicely done! I loved it. Keep 'em coming.
Just love LOVE your chatter.... keep doing what you do x
Thanks :)
Thanks Kelly :)
Nah, it's perfect. All the little bits are the reasons for your cover to be unique and so beautiful. And really - we do have some people on CZcams that hit the 1 hour mark every time, so don't worry about a couple minutes more :)
I see the love and effort you put into your videos! Thank you, keep up the great work ✌️
Thanks Kaya I appreciate this comment so much ❤️
great job , i really appreciate, the result is so smooth cool and seamless thanks david
Thanks. Hope my reply about the loop pedal helps you also! :)
Thanks to your inspiration and the detail I get from your videos, I have ordered a Voicelive 3 extreme, coming Wednesday. Then the hard work starts! Thanks for all you do.
Yay! Epic piece of gear. Highly recommend downloading the pdf manual as it’s searchable 👌 a once through reading also much recommended as there is a lot packed into it!
@@davidshanhun David, you are not wrong there! Lots of diffwrent concepts to understand., layers, slots, presets, steps, global etc. I spent several hours with it and the full m anual yesterday. What I couldnt find is a sinple way to do this.......
If you like the guitar setup ftom one preset and the vocal setup from another preset, is there a way of copying these individually to a new third preset. I can only see h o w to copy a whole preset and not individual layers.
@@malcolmhodgson7540 Sadly not that I know of. I filmed the details of a layer that I wanted so I could copy it that way. So basically copying the layer with say guitar that you wanted to a new slot, then filming the details of the vocal settings on the preset you wanted, and manually copying them in. If you come across an option to do just the layer let me know though!
Thankyou for your time showing us this song in detail. Much love brother x
you're most welcome brother! 😊
Thanks. New to looping and this song's a banger. Cheers.
most welcome! Hope you have fun with it!
Awesome mate!
Thanks!
After watching several of your videos I am now a new subscriber 👍
Hey Colt! Welcome to the crew! :)
Thank You for sharing your experience, David! Greetings from Germany
Welcome! Wie Geht? (sorry for my bad German haha)
@@davidshanhun 😀 Cool!
Wie geht's?
David my friend you are full of good vibe. Keep on looping teaching and talking much :) we are ok with it. Have a great day pal. Greeting from Türkiye
Thanks so much Levent!
Hey David wow man thank you for this tutorial. It’s made the world of difference in this song for me as I play it most days and I have always hated the way I loop it. Now it sounds 1000 times better. I need to start to do some you tube clips. But hey I am a bit old school ha ha. If you ever in London. Please man give me a shout and let’s hook up for a beer or a coffee. 🍾👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey Wallace - thanks so much for this comment mate! I'm so glad to hear you got a new version that you like out of it :) Would love to join you for a beer in London sometime. Been there only once and will be back for sure!
Superb thanks for sharing.
welcome Mike!
Thanks ver helpful
awesome! :)
Nice version. Also I like your thought processes so keep the chatter going, it all helps with thickos like me who keep pressing rewind thinking I've missed something :)
thankyou! Appreciate the comment about my chatter and glad it's useful!
Very interesting - thanks. Good to see the VL3 back in action. Faced with some of the same issues, my go to approach is to use Steps on the VL to add an octaver or delay. Then I just have to manage one button to cycle through them rather than changing presets and settings independently. You've got cleverer feet though.
Hey Chris. Yeah I'm glad it's all good too! That's totally a good approach as well. I use the looper a lot so have the step pedal set to the loop function - thinking I may remap a few things after this comment though... I have the switch 6, but often don't take it in as haven't wired up a board or really found a good location for where it will go if i do! I think the switch 3 is probably all i need (and easier to actually mount on a pedal board!). I found previously that the 'hold' option to get to the loop screen led to potential 'undo' situations when exiting the looper from time to time :) Cool thing about the pedal is that we all use it in so many different ways eh? Your comment will have me up for ages experimenting again now though haha!
Great version David. Makes me think I need to do a lot more practice with the VL3. I find anything more than one footswitch press hard to do while singing and playing. Thanks for the tutorial.
You can do it! Hope you come up with a good version out of it!
Great vid! I always thought the lead guitar first two notes was the B released down to an A. On an acoustic, pre-bend the A fret 2 on the 3rd string up to B and release to A, then the E (5th fret 2nd string) up to F#.
Your presentation is great and natural. Love the vibe. Keep it up!
you are absolutely correct Renny! 👌
I really appreciate your looping tutorial videos . I’m getting into looping and looking for concept type looping videos, but most folks videos take 10 minutes to just say hit the button on the one, you are the best I’ve found at actually explaining how to loop after you can hit the button on the one 👍🏼
Thanks so much Will! What are you looping with at the moment?
@@davidshanhun I am using the Boomerang III. I love it but have only scratched the surface of what it will do!
@@willspears4269 awesome - great looper!
Beauty!
Thankyou!
Hey David, love your positive attitude and your tutorials around the VL3 helps me a lot. At this time I've got the same issues with my guitar that you have in this vid... Do you have a hint for me? What was the problem with yours?
Best wishes from Germany!
Sascha
Hey Sascha, The issue for me seemed to be getting the contact points cleaned of the actual internal parts of the pickup - it was essentially bad connections from simply the age of the guitar, and that the pickup system and wiring had never been cleaned - especially the contact points. Let me know if that helps yours also! How old is your guitar?
i use a boss rc-2 and i get mised up with the phrases as opposed to tracks, are the phrases just a store of loops or can i move from one to another during a live performance , your advice would greatly help.. this problem almost got me to abandon my looper
Hi Clency, the RC-2 only gives you an option to store one loop. with the pedal you have you won't be able to switch to different loops sadly. It's still a great pedal, but you can only have one chord sequence at a time. Hope that helps!
How many songs do you have on/in(?) your repertoir? Is there a song you always play no matter what?
100's 😊no songs that always feature, although there are plenty of songs that get played quite a lot. At the moment I'm really enjoying doing a loop version of Dancing in the Moonlight, nothing fancy, just has such nice feels to the song :)
Great! Your playing is so balanced and never overplayed.
About your setting, does your guitar go into an amp or is it the sound of the rode video mic through an audio interface that we can hear?
Best to you.😃
Thanks Dov! Yes - my guitar is going into an Amp first then into the Zoom H4n for to record this. Use the amp so I can hear what I'm looping too... but it does add a bit of nice tone and love into the sound for sure :)
David, which amp do you use for your acoustic. I am planning to buy one but am a bit clueless.
Hey David! Thanks for this! Can I ask a question? What's this black pedal in front of VL3? And how do you achieve this really nice acoustic sound? I see, you plugged in just one cable to instrument input. Is your Takamine equipped with piezzo and mic, and both signal come via one cable and are those blended, or how? How you avoid unwanted piezzo's dry sound? And how you can achieve the perc sound with your guitar with piezzo? I don't see any mic plugged in. I have Takamine also, but cheaper version, than yours and I have some nice results with Bodyrez, but can't do perc sound and allways I hear this crappy piezzo sound a little bit. Ok, I know this is recording for YT and here you are using an amp and soundcard, but how you're doing this in live situations? So, what's the secret of your acoustic sound? Thanks in advance! Gabor
Oh, sorry! Skipped the beginning. There are the answers.
But I don't understand how you are doing perc sound. Ok, there is mic inside of the guitar, not just piezzo, but you plugged with just one cable. Sorry for dummy thing, but it means, that the signal of piezzo and mic are going to one cable?
Hi Gábor! There is no mic in my guitar - it is a Takamine ND15c with the pickup under the bridge. What I suggest is that you experiment experiment experiment with your guitar - all of our guitars are different including the actual guitar and the pickup, but with experimentation you will start to find sounds that can work for you. What percussion sound are you most wanting to get - the kick drum sound or the snare/string slap type percussion?
@@davidshanhun Yes, when I hit the strings at the bridge, there is a deep kick-type sound and string slap is working also, but I'm interested in the thinner sound, when you hit the top of the upper bout. My piezzo doesn't receive this. Thanks for quick feedback.
Sorry, I watched again the beginning of vid and I realized, it's downer bout and this is logical, as this point is in the same line with bridge. Tomorrow will try it out. Thanks again for great tutor! Sorry for unnecesarry questions. And you're right: experiment....Greetings from Hungary.
Hi David great tutorial. About the voice live 3 is it easy to use ? Would you recommend it ? Do you have a tutorial on it ? Thanks
Hey Stevie. I would answer both yes and no on the voicelive 3 being easy to use haha! It takes a little bit of time to setup and because there is SOO much packed into it - there genuinely is a bit of 'learning time' that you'll need to put in. In saying that, once you've done that and understand some basics on how it works plus have some settings created that you like, then it is straightforward on how it actually works and is a really great all in one pedal for both guitar and vocal effects, as well as a really awesome looping unit. If you want something that you can run out of the box on day 1 - it's not for you however. It's fun out of the box, but does need some personal input time to create your own settings, match volumes and have everything how you like it. Good side is it's super customisable. So..... loong reply, but hopefully that helps you! Watching this might help you get a better sense of the unit - czcams.com/video/vuL4Oal_3SU/video.html - feel free to reach out with any questions! 😊
David Shanhun Hi David Thanks very much for your response. Could you please help me to choose a looper pedal with 2 tracks or more? I’ve been looking at loads of them but they all seem to have their issues.For me sound quality and ease of use are most important. I was looking at the Aeros but saw some negative comments regarding firmware. If you could point me in the right direction that would be brilliant mate. As you’ve probably guessed I’m a total novice when it comes to looping loopers and now I’ve gone loopy 😀. Thanks again mate your a total gentleman.
@@steviebuoy320 the best option is most likely the Rc300. The RC300 is the reliable industry standard for 2 loops or more. Other options for two loops are the RC-30, ditto x4 perhaps. Are you looking for just a standalone looper, or wanting effects options as well? They all have their little quirks/challenges/issues, so would be curious what you're aiming at - live shows, home fun etc? PS. I don't think there's a perfect option created yet 😂
@@davidshanhun Hi David, I looked at the RC 300 it looks very capable with loads of options and easy to use with the only downside being the size.I also checked out the RC 30 but its not the same quality more toy like. Yes you guessed I'm very particular and like quality gear :-). I also had a look at the ditto x4 but read a lot of bad reviews about it and there is next to no storage on it. I'm looking for a good all round looper with the sound quality and storage the most important something i can use at home live or in the studio.Is there a big difference sound quality wise with regards to 16bit and 24bit ? Have you had any experience with the Aeros Loop Studio? Thanks very much for taking the time and your support appreciated mate !
@@stevieross4415 I haven't had much experience with the Aeros loop studio sorry! I did have a brief look at it and thought it would be super fiddly to switch between loops etc, but that's also it's blessing in being such a small size and only having a few press-able pedals. And again, in saying that - I haven't actually used it. Some others to consider also would be the boomerang III (i always forget it because i don't like it's switches haha), and the pigtronix infinity. Neither of which I have any real experience with tbh. Loop quality wise I think it's something worth testing if you can get into a store! I remember with the old stereo Jamman I had it did odd things with my tone!
I fined my takamine to Bright ?
every guitar has it's own tone from the wood and build, as well as the pickup. You can tone down the brightness by reducing the treble either on the guitar pickup, or the desk or speaker you're running into. Hope that helps!
Hi David, Can you help me with the picking pattern of the chords BM A E.(at 3min) I watched the video several times but i can't figure it out.
