![]() To get a shuffle beat automatically, you really just need to emphasize the shuffle note that is just before the quarter notes of the bar when you teach the band. Where most people go wrong is they tend to try and play with too many embellishments (walking bass lines, arpeggios, etc). The secret behind the Trio is learning how to teach the band - it usually doesn't take too long once you get the idea that the Trio is using your strums to determine the chords, bar lengths, tempo, key, straight vs shuffle, and most importantly loop length. Full disclosure - I am part of the team at Harman Canada that developed the Trio. I hope you don't mind me jumping in here to try and help out. Hopefully, ability toc hange genres, styles, or get a sync function etc will be possible. What remains to be seen is what can be updated in the future via the USB. Bass/drum to clean amp, your guitar to another. SO if you want dirt, that means pedals in front of Trio. NOW, as is it is meant to run both bass/drums and your guitar signal to a clean amp. With ADDITIONAL footswitch (can be used with digitech loopers and others too) you can jump from part 1 to 3, or 2 to 1. JUst hit he footswitch before the end of the part in play mode, and it will switch to the next. THat way you could loop rhythm/chords and solo over. If it can't now, I would think it could be some day. I have their looper with the sync feature, and the Trio. But, I have a question to Digitech about that. In a LIVE situation, syncing it with a looper might be nice. ![]() HOWEVER, it does vary a little each time rhrough a 'part'. But, you will be lacking variation, fills and other stuff to make it more organic/original. I also see it useable for a solo open mic or busking situation. ![]() I can also see it as a nice tool to adjust an amp for a live mix, while practicing. It is a great tool for roughing out song ideas as well. But, is that worth it? Depends on what you want. Headphone jack used, others are disabled. Mixer out and Headphone out gets emulation. If Amp out is used, it is just EQed for a clean amp. Speaker emulation is applied depending on what is used. You can run both your guitar signal and the bass/drum to your amp, or you can run them separate, guitar to amp and bass/drum to the Mixer out. Sounded good with or without via phones or out. What is used depends on the genre selected. Manual doesn't state WHAT those are, but there is a little verb, a little delay, chorus. And that's the stated tracking, one chord per beat, as far as the beat goes.Īlso has "Guitar FX" that adds either rhythm FX package will be used on the guitar signal, a lead package for playing and the rhythm package for learning, or off. EVEN if your a little off the beat, Trio corrects for that. A chord per measure, 2 per measure, even a chord change per 4/4 beat, the Trio tracked fine for me. When laying in the progression, simple whole note strums works perfectly well. DigiTech's optional FS3X footswitch lets you switch song parts without letting go of your guitar.Independent Bass and Drums volume controls let you get the perfect mix.Guitar effects appropriate to each genre are built in making jamming easy.Pedal learns up to 3 song parts that can be recalled on the fly.Find the sound you want choosing from 7 music genres each with 12 different styles.Everything sounded good whether it was flat monitor cans or cans meant for music listening. What is nice, is that you can use your amp's tone for it. Drums are as good as most digital machines out there. I will say the Bass sounds very good, expressive, punchy when needed. If you want to hear what the Bass and Drums sound like, go and check out the several vids out there. It then plays a bass line, drum backing to match that progression.Īnd, as long as you simplify your strumming WHILE having it learn/record the progression, it does just that, in spades, and well. You engage 'recording', play a chord progression, disengage. You just have to understand where and how it can/should be used.įor those that are not aware of the pedal, it was made to provide a rhythm section to your playing, bass and drums. I wanted to get to know it a little better.
