@@denizo9263 hey bro, do not say that, this is not what I meant-- I know how much practicing an instrument can be soul crushing and how hard it is to not compare ourselves to others in a negative way.

The more I advanced in my musical journey, the more I realized how large "music" is, someone can be the most talented solo interpret but have no idea how to properly place a mic to record themselves.

Just like my students, that usually just want to learn how to play a song or two that they like for their own enjoyment, and that's absolutely fine. Also let's be honest here, Posy is already very familiar with music creation and have a ton of transferable skills, its not fair for my teenager students that just picked up an instrument.

Your first few seconds with a new instrument beats out about 80% of the alt-prog-art-rock entertainment on TH-cam. Keep up the good work and never regret filming yourself.
RE: Balanced cables with guitar: You got lucky it made sound at all. Balanced cables send the same signal (one phase inverted) down two wires then flip one at the other end. This subtracts any noise picked up as it travelled down the cable (through phase cancellation) while leaving the signal intact, so you get the signal as it was when it left the instrument. With most guitars though they only have a mono jack. This will contact the tip and either one or two of the ring/sleeve connections on the jack. If it contacts two, then the mono signal will be duplicated and sent down the wire. When it gets flipped the signal will cancel itself out (because one of them wasn't flipped to begin with) and you'll get nothing. If the jack contacts only one, then the signal goes down one wire and added to the other blank signal so you'll get the sound of a normal cable (quieter though). That's what happens in the case of that particular guitar jack. You need specific electronics in a guitar to allow for a balanced connection. Most people just go for a balanced DI box and go into it with a shorter mono guitar lead than worry about trying to do that inside the guitar.
Agreed! Could be the balanced input has some impedance to ground, so even though the guitar left it unconnected, the input subtracted source - zero and got source. Also, guitars need high impedance input, like 1MΩ so as not to attenuate high frequencies, a.k.a. "tone suck". (Reason being, the inductive pick-up's impedance increases as frequency increases, so forming a low-pass filter with the input impedance) Good times.
Well, you have convinced me... To try out adding guitar plugins without a guitar plugged in. Because those drones were wonderful! And so handy... as I don't own a guitar. :D
2:47 had this exact same issue when i first got a strat, the dish is at a different angle to the plug, so you intuitively try to plug it in at a shallower angle than the plug is actually at
That's nice! One of my guitars is almost the same color, but a bit darker. Learning guitar is tons of fun! I'd love to see a video of your progress some time in the future. :)
5:07 you probably figured it out by now but guitar signals are mono, theres no reason to use a balanced cable, also those kinds of pickups will hum, theyre inherently noisy. though you should be able to use the 2 and 4 positions on the selector switch to eliminate that hum. if its still humming, its a grounding issue with the electronics, or you have noisy power, or you have some kind of radio or electromagnetic frequencies hitting your guitar. led lights/monitors are notorious for that
I also picked up an electric guitar for the first time a couple weeks ago and watching this is like watching my first day. Although Posy definitely has more musical talent than me, so something tells me he's probably already better than me, haha.
Balanced cables have two identical signal wires with opposite polarity, plus a separate ground wire. This design helps reduce noise and interference, especially over longer cable runs. Balanced cables generally provide better sound quality and a lower noise floor compared to unbalanced cables.
And it will only work properly if the electric internals of the electric guitar have a balanced output. Basic check: you disassemble the socket and you see that there are three contacts (for tip, ring, and sleeve) instead of the usual two (for tip, and sleeve).
Ah sick, what kind of guitar is it? Looks like some kind of stratocaster copy. I'm always fascinated by musicians who never took the string instrument approach, neat to think of just how far you can go without them in the digital age. As for the guitar, you may want to consider either setting it up or having someone else perform a setup to eliminate that buzzing from the fretwire and to help with playability. It's not super uncommon, and barely noticable. FL Studio pedal VSTs can be a bit hit or miss, but my favorite way to go direct-in without mic'ing a traditional amplifier is to just use compression and reverb, if you want gain I usually just boost my input signal until it starts to clip, combine that with compression / a limiter and you can get decent variety. EQ matters a bunch too! Neat to see you with a guitar in-hand Posy, keep 'em coming, and have fun!
The finger strangle zoom at 1:05 is art
Had me laughing out loud!
in Posy's hands even a bare cable turns into content
That's not lazy content at all
There is no such content as lazy from Posy, it is just Posy.
but it is not of the same caliber as a main channel video
1:04 i lost it at bro almost garotting his finger
As a Doom Metal fan that intro riff sounded pretty awesome 🤘
FORREALLL
5:06 the first minute or two of playing this instrument and posy already show more creativity than all of my students
There goes my hopes and dreams again... That's like the third time this week.

Mhm i wonder if that's because he's not your student?

@@SianaGearz yeah maybe there's that idk 😂
he's just like me, he seemed to have more fun with the cable and feedback noise than the instument itself:D:D:D
The quality is wild

Rock on Posy
God bless Posy and his whimsical musical adventures

What this man calls "Lazy" content is wild
A fellow Ambience user. It has been one of my favorite reverb VSTs for years
You were making something amazing even before plugging it in!
Okay, we need you to make a music video of you playing the human-grounded plug
You got the beginning scene perfect. Now let's watch the rest of _Back to the Lazy Future_ !
🤩
2:47 had this exact same issue when i first got a strat, the dish is at a different angle to the plug, so you intuitively try to plug it in at a shallower angle than the plug is actually at
This was thoroughly entertaining
Nice!
This actually rocks
You're a joy to watch
That's nice! One of my guitars is almost the same color, but a bit darker. Learning guitar is tons of fun! I'd love to see a video of your progress some time in the future. :)
"What instrument do you play?"
"1/4 phone plug"

i feel like posy will make music with this in every way possible except from playing it properly lol
I think you have a lot of fun making these :D
Every teenage boy when they get their first electric guitar: ...
The outro sounds like he learnt to tune it?
2:16 Nearly sounds like Prodigy!
Right?
5:34 The guitar sure felt something...
Your tone is genuinely pretty damn good, how did you do that
I love your cushions!
I also picked up an electric guitar for the first time a couple weeks ago and watching this is like watching my first day. Although Posy definitely has more musical talent than me, so something tells me he's probably already better than me, haha.
I've never wanted an electric guitar more in my life
Me too, but I have no clue how to play one LOL
"Skip this"
Don't tell me what to do😤
1:54 the effect sounds cool
this is.... nice.
You can count on Posy to make sounds with an electric guitar not yet thought possible the very first time he uses one in his entire life
You couldn't pay me to skip a Posy video...
WTF IS A BALANCED CABLE????? HAVE I BEEN USING UNBALANCED CABLES FOR GUITARS MY ENTIRE LIFE????? OMFG
Balanced cables have two identical signal wires with opposite polarity, plus a separate ground wire. This design helps reduce noise and interference, especially over longer cable runs. Balanced cables generally provide better sound quality and a lower noise floor compared to unbalanced cables.
And it will only work properly if the electric internals of the electric guitar have a balanced output. Basic check: you disassemble the socket and you see that there are three contacts (for tip, ring, and sleeve) instead of the usual two (for tip, and sleeve).
the addiction has started
A unique pioneer.
Posy is an FL Studio user
My man 🤝
Fripptastic
Posy is an open C enjoyer!!
Hmm, Laura Pergolizzi went experimental. Nice!
3:46 nice guitar cover of the first note of robot rock - daft punk
This video is better than the latest Pallbearer song.
Real Darren Korb vibes at the end there

Amazing
3:45 - nice guitar cover of first note justice genesis track
Thought it was Pat Finnerty in the thumbnail.
6:11 I expected another... ON TH-cam!? 👹
Accidentally makes E5150 by Black Sabbath
The fact that I understand the laziness in this video
What plugin/s did u used, and by whom?
Doom metal :O. This video sounded like Wilshire corridor - the bleeding coast
If Posy was a rockstar: 0:01 - 0:20
and 6:12
lekker bezig
I have watched film of Adrian Belew go at a guitar with a knife and fork, so "some guy in a chair with a new guitar" wasn't so novel.
Im starting realize “lazy” is subjective…….what is lazy?😂😂
Best shitpost ever
He plays the homeless outfit very well
FL STUDIO USER SPOTTED
a very shoegaze-y tone
shoegaze isn't a real genre
Posy
“a while” ;-)
True!
tok tik
Is it off nou of nou… 😂😂😂😂😂
Play Misirlou with it.
Lazy Q&A please?
Then you're supposed to smash your guitar and trash your amplifiers because that's what a real rock star does!
One like is not enough for this :+1:
➕💯
😄
please no anything but FL hardcore :(
Whoops, I accidentally clicked on the this video and watched the whole thing, accidentally. Sorry.
Nice thank you but the title is clickbait.
I made a whole array of plugins 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
I liked that one part
