Director Using Effects Pedals: Home and Live Performance

In summary, the most common types of effects pedals used for live performances are distortion/overdrive pedals, delay pedals, reverb pedals, chorus pedals, and wah pedals. To properly set up these pedals, they should be connected in the correct order, with a pedalboard power supply being the best way to power them. The same effects pedals can be used for both home practice and live performances, but it is important to consider size, weight, and testing them beforehand. When choosing effects pedals for a specific song or style of music, it is helpful to follow general guidelines and listen to recordings for inspiration.

What are you using them for at home and at your shows?
 
I have fruit in one on my counter.

I often make tortilla chips at home for my shows (usually do a salsa at the show to go with it) and I have been bringing them in the bamboo bowl - used to bring it in a medium square SA or medium dots bowl...

After moving the chips to the serving plate I use it to pass around and collect the DPDS's.
 
I put chips in them at my show to go with the pass around salsa. At home I have 3 of them in my 3-tiered stand.

At nat. conf. I didn't care for the bamobbo bowls until I saw three in the 3-tier stand. They are beautiful in there and I had to get 3 so I could do that with mine. Problem for me is that my SA small and medium squares are stored in mine... I guess I need another stand - ha.
 

Related to Using Effects Pedals: Home and Live Performance

What are the most common types of effects pedals used for live performances?

The most common types of effects pedals used for live performances are distortion/overdrive pedals, delay pedals, reverb pedals, chorus pedals, and wah pedals. These pedals can drastically change the sound of your instrument and add texture and depth to your performance.

How do I properly set up my effects pedals for a live performance?

To set up your effects pedals for a live performance, you will need to connect them in the correct order. Typically, the signal chain should go from your instrument to the tuner pedal, then into your distortion/overdrive pedal, followed by modulation effects such as chorus or delay, and ending with your reverb pedal. It is important to experiment with the order to find the sound that best suits your performance.

What is the best way to power my effects pedals during a live performance?

The best way to power your effects pedals during a live performance is with a pedalboard power supply. This will ensure that all of your pedals are receiving consistent and clean power, which can greatly improve their performance. It is also important to have backup batteries on hand in case of any technical difficulties.

Can I use the same effects pedals for both home practice and live performances?

Yes, you can use the same effects pedals for both home practice and live performances. However, it is important to consider the size and weight of the pedals, as well as any additional equipment needed, such as a pedalboard or power supply. It is also a good idea to test your pedals in a live setting before a performance to ensure they are working properly.

How do I know which effects pedals to use for a specific song or style of music?

Choosing effects pedals for a specific song or style of music can be a personal preference, but there are some general guidelines to follow. For example, distortion/overdrive pedals are commonly used in rock and metal music, while delay and reverb pedals can add depth to ballads and slower songs. It is also helpful to listen to recordings of your favorite songs and try to replicate the effects used in those songs to achieve a similar sound.
