First Gig with Ultra! Video Clips

Fractal Fanatic
Had my first gig with the Ultra last friday and saturday nights. I can't describe how much fun I had. The Axe-Fx was simply alive. It sounded so good I lost myself in it at times. Thanks again to everyone from Cliff to building this thing to all the forum users that helped me get the most out of it. And I know I've only scratched the surface.

This is the first time I've played a gig in over 2 1/2 years. I'm older, fatter and rustier but I had so much fun I didn't care. Audio is the room sound from an on camera mic. Unedited live performance warts and all.

Here's a little MKII+C action. (thanks Shredi)! I think Santana would want this tone.

Everything was direct to the board. Just doing this to show a small portion of the Axe-Fx's potential. This thing has changed the way music is being made. Now we just have to wait for the rest of the world to play catch up.
 
Man... you guys and your one man shows! Wow. I can't hardly sing backup vocals and play.

Sounds great - really great. The ZZ Top stuff was nicely aggressive. Dumble tones on that? Wow.

You really nailed the LS stuff with that Dr. Z tone. Nicely played!
 
YES!! Best tone ever!

So...was it hard to sing with that shit-eating grin that kept creeping onto your face?

Congratulations -- welcome back!
 
Awesome job nailing those tones! I need to experiment more with the amp models, as I find myself sticking to one or two I'm familiar with and not exploring the Axe's potential. Thanks for sharing! :)
 
Nice Zack!
That headset mic looks cumbersome. I gotz to have me a mic on a stand and a leg up on the monitor. :p
 
Damn XRocker!!! That was pretty bad ass!!! Great tone and great vocals!!! Lovin' the hair too! :D

P.S. Shouldn't this be in the recording area?

Yeah, I felt like a ventriloquist. I was smiling so hard I couldn't pronounce m's or b's.
Thanks dude!

Very cool.


What sort of camera did you use to record?

Very good video/audio quality for a hand held, I'd say.

I've got access to some pretty good cameras through my production company. I shot this using a Panasonic AG-HVX200AP at 24fps.
Shot in HD at 720p. Just used the built in mic on the camera. I've got a MIO2882 that I can use to record each channel before it gets to the board. I'll use that this weekend.
 
That was very cool playing :shock:

I liked the playing on skynyrd tune very much ... Good job,

Mik.
 
nice work indeed, Zak!

love the playing, tones, singing & attitude :D great banner as well :D

one trivial thing - my recollection of Still Got The Blues in the part "so long, so long ago" I think "ago" is a D9 chord and not Dm. My memory could be failing me also.

anyway, rock on.
 
Great stuff! Hey Zack, if you want I can send you one of my daughter's banana clips to keep that lion's mane out of your Ultra induced smile. :mrgreen:

The Ultra makes you roar. Hey that could be a slogan.
