This is an awesome vid and tip! I'm using it on several patches. Thanks much for posting!
You're welcome guys!
@Coldsummer I'll see if I can get a vid together showing you some of the things I do around here. One of the guys was asking in another thread about post processing etc, so maybe I'll kill a few birds with one stone.
@REDD Hahaha! I'll get the Nuno one together with a little explanation. It's actually easy but a bit challenging because it's a feel thing. I'll explain when I get to it.
@elchampion As soon as I get a minute, I'll work on it.
In the meantime, here's a pretty close Cathedral patch which is tone matched. Depending on your ability to volume swell and how hard you swell will determine the amount of gain you use in this patch. If you find it distorting, back the gain down. If your swells are not coming out quite right, increase the gain and it should be fine. Cranking your volume wide open on this sound is not advisable as it sounds like a dong sandwich with extra veins invading your room!
Oh man, it won't let me upload the file for some reason? It says I'm able to upload .sys files, yet it's giving me an error?! Any suggestions?
sounds really cool, Danny! Thanks for your explanation.
Thats the sound i always tried to reach with an Chorus or - what has been said - detune.
What Delay do you guys use on the detune with these EVH-Settings? I like on side 0ms, the other 10ms.
I have also tried a stereo EVH Setup with the pure ampsound on one side and an 100% pitchdetune on the other hard panned (Eddie did it live?) - but it wasn´t the right way, I thought?.
Do you use this dual Delay settings also with livesounds or just recording?
There's one thing I've always wondered about - does anyone ever use chorus in conjunction with a Haas style patch??? I sometimes will add an effect to just one side (synth, wah, etc.) but never could get a decent tone when chorus was applied either before the stereo split or after. Just curious.
Actually there's a one block solution without delay on the dry side but it could be not applicable to every patch: set balance of the previous block (say cab) at 100% on the dry side, then add your mono delay or chorus block in parallel to a shunt, pan it to the opposite side and increase level by 6dB and mix at 100%It's always awesome to see a fresh approach on something that gets the creative juices flowing. Thanks for that!
I've always implemented the Haas effect in my live patches with a volume block (serial) panned hard to one side and then a mono delay block (parallel) panned hard to the other... I believe this is how the original Petrucci factory preset was configured waaay back in the day. When using this method you aren't forced to delay the "original" by 1ms, and I don't notice a volume difference between the two sides like in your setup. The downside to this is it requires an additional block. I will have to try your method out on my patches and see if there is any audible difference. If not, 1 block solution wins

Yeah, I do it all the time and think it sounds great. I use it for leads a lot of the time, but done right, you can get a little extra snarl out of your tone. Just don't go too crazy with it.
I've mentioned this word in two of my videos and always wanted to explain it a bit more in case people wondered about it. Someone actually asked me a few minutes ago to explain it as this video was rendering, so it's perfect timing! Some of you guys know about this little effect trick, but some may not...so here you go. More Danny silliness!
