The TunerMatic automatically turns your guitar pegs to tune your guitar. According to the developers, “It is the only guitar tuner that tunes the guitar for you.”

Sounds pretty cool, but the promo video left me thinking – is tuning a guitar that difficult?

Multi Eventide stompbox demo jam freakout!

via SourceDistributionTV:

The results of an improvised mess-about tweaking all our in-house Eventide Stompboxes, sometimes all at once. The chain is Suhr Guitar into Eventide ModFactor fed into TimeFactor, then into Pitchfactor, then into a Jet City 50 Watt 2 x 12 Combo amp. Guitar is provided by Source’s resident shredder Ian Iredale, knob twiddling by Alex. You can hopefully get an idea for the sheer range of ideas, sounds and general all round genius these particular pedals provide.

Eventide stompboxes are as much studio effects as they are guitar effects (all are stereo, with selectable Line/Guitar input/output volumes), all sound completely fabulous and are easy to use, but still super super deep.

Mic setup is Shure SM57 on the cone going into a UA 610, RƘDE NTG1000 on the rear of the cab, RƘDE NTG2 to pick up our voices, all fed into a PreSonus FireStudio Mobile for conversion.
