There are some great camera close-ups on the guitar solo, and split-screen action, etc.
I'm using the JB-1 on the neck pick-up, and an old DOD FX80-B compressor on the bridge pick up, running ROS. On the JB I turn up both the gain and attack knobs to about 2:00. On the DOD, I have the Level knob at about 11:00, the Release knob at 2:00 and the Compression knob at 5:00.Folkie wrote:JimK,
I was listening to the Byrds Collective's live version of "Eight Miles High" and was wondering how the guitarist got that heavily compressed lead guitar sound. I tend to set the attack knob on my JB2 at about three o'clock (which is almost as high as it goes). When you play the lead lines to "Eight MIles High" do you turn the attack on your Janglebox all the way up? Would a stiff pick be necessary to get that sound?

Wellllll, if you show up at SCARF this year, maybe you can meet the band, ask them a zillion questions, or even sit in with them on a few songs. They're a bunch of great guys.cedbenson wrote:I just listed to the link Greg recently posted to the Byrds Collective website and this time I was amazed. To me, these guys sound better than the Byrds in some ways, and although they may not have written the songs they sure in the hell do a beyond excellent job of sounding like the record especially in their harmonies. One major difference is they sound better in concert than the Byrds did, but I don't want to get too much into that, after all I've heard the members of the Byrds often had problems with Crosby and his outspokenness on stage, but then again so did the Eagles with fruequent argments.
How long have these guys been together, what did they do before and what did each of the members of the group do in the past? Living in Los Angeles I demand to know this !!! Better yet ....maybe I’ll just keep reading ....
