102.7 KIIS-FM: Ed Sheeran Loop Pedal Tutorial with JoJo

- Ed Sheeran came by the studios at 102.7 KIIS-FM to give JoJo and some fans a quick demonstration on how he builds a song all with only his guitar and a loop machine!
using a loop pedal live for many hours is no joke. There are many possibilities where you can make mistakes while playing. Ed doesn’t get recognition he deserves when it comes to loop pedal. He's basically producing a song live in front of you. And young girls nowadays be like "he's just a guitar man" only because he's not dancing or doing any crazy stuff on stage like kpop artists or new pop singers who are always lip syncing on stage since dancing and singing it's really hard. I'd rather watch a performance with loop pedals in live, than lip sync performances, that's why i love Ed
And he used a fucking RC-30😂😂😂 ONLY that makes it insane lol
yeah ever since he's upgraded to the chewwie pedal and lately the custom "Sheeran " looper for the mathematics tour i've begun appreciating him more. I bought an RC-30 after saving up for 2 years from my part-time job, its only when i began looping myself i realised how complex and difficult it can get. TIMING IS LITERALLY EVERYTHING!!
@@theodor_1028 Is an RC 20 XL with no Balanced XRL MIC and single track.
Watching him build a loop is fascinating and he's so damn good at it.
i don't think I've ever seen anyone else get such clean rhythms with a loop pedal
+timothy james it's more a matter of perfect timing. I don't think his equipment helps him out in that regard
I agree it's timing. I used to play around with the best equipment money could buy when I worked for a Pro Audio company... and this is still mind blowing.
timothy james the Loopings Station he uses, you get for around 200€
Alexander Lee havnt seen david ford then. state of the union for example.
Kevin Young damn I was just about to suggest the fantastic Mr Ford...
Just got this loop station yesterday for my birthday!
Which brand/model
Looks like a Boss RC-20XL to me
Hanh Bangsia it is an RC-20 but I recommend the RC-30 😉
@@chillingguy9979 Is the rc-30 or Rc-300 better? For singing, guitar and liver performance
Bumi go the rc 300 hundred is better but about twice the price
He's playing a part of You Need Me I don't need you 😀🔥🔥
He's so good. Words can't explain his performance.
yes they can.... "he has a lot of money and a lot of free time"
Amazing looping skills!!! LOVE IT!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He's not a novice, he's a standard intermediate player, but what makes him different is the smart ways of using the knowledge he has on guitar, and make interesting sound combinations out of it.
“Standard intermediate player”…. He’s a made millions and become as famous as a musician can get. Get back to making my latte barista.
"Standard intermediate" 🤣🤣🤣
Very talented
OMG! that was amazing!
ed sheeran is the shit
+EHOODFLA You´re the SHIT :)
+Hakanes EM not sure if u readed well or jk xd
+Hakanes EM if your not familiar with calling someone "the shit", it's a compliment. It means really good, as opposed to shit.
+FP ESS Ou. Then sorry man. I thought that he abuse him. I really didn't know this because my primary language is not ENG. Thanks for explaining :D
i thought you thought he was abusing him that's why i explained to you lol
I want a loop pedal so bad! ed sheeran is awsome!
Every single time I try to make a loop there’s a hitch in the loop where it repeats. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
not the best singer but the best musician and artist the industry has ever produced. for me.
Yup best musican and artist in our millennial generation
You better still not believe that he isn’t one of the best singers to this day
@@atufts7753 well his singing is great but not the best, but his skill to make music was unbelievable
uuhhh... naaah
Arun Kumar I totally agree, he’s not the best singer, but he the best artist i know hahaha
I wonder how he makes the guitar sound like that. Like the effects and the thumpyness.Wonder what his eq settings are.
that was incredible
no one is freaking about ed giving away his patek phillipe?!
Check out the TC electronices Ditto looper. It's super easy to use and has a lot of clarity as well. One switch that's it.
Todd Hooper except the rc 30 has two tracks and mic input
The tragedy is he probably deletes this after the demo, yet if I made this I’d be scared of losing the track lol!
It's a loop he does as part of "You need me, I don't need you" live performances so he didn't really lose anything.
Every loop is ofcourse slightly different at every gig
What kind of Martin is this? And what kind of electronics are in it? His guitar sounds so freaking good plugged in!
This is an little Martin LX1E
Just the basic fishman really
+15estrem He doesn't use the Fishman pickup he never has he always installs his own pickups in, ones you cant buy anymore!
+Joshua Craddock what pickups does he use then?
+Toby Scott here you can learn about stuff ed uses: www.acousticguitar.com/How-To/Loop-the-Loop-Create-your-own-Ed-Sheeran-sound
Will the looper work with acoustic and electric guitar?
Plays the guitar:
“Oh I can do that”
Takes the mic:
“Oh yeah that’s Ed Sheeran”
Is there a full video of this session/interview somewhere?
Humble question: that works for a song which uses the same chord (2 or 4 or how many ever) progression. How does one use looper when chord progressions change, day from verse to chorus to back to verse and then to bridge, etc?
Yeah, I was asking myself the same question, I think I will get myself a loop station and figure it out 😅
I hate a lot of the popular music crap, but there is no denying his talent
human from heaven
hell yeah
the laugh track was really bothering me
How do you remember the order in which you recorded all the layers, in case you want to leave a few out for a few rounds and then add them back later on? And if not, the point is just to add and add more layers?
+Eline Mann Music I'm pretty sure the only way to remember your layers like that is to practice it and have it down until you know exactly what you want and can do it perfect every time. I just bought my RC-30 loop station which is what he is using in this video and the only way to remove tracks at all after they have been recorded is to "undo" and even then you can only take the last one that has been recorded. Even for that to work you have to have stopped the recording and started a new one. If you were in overdub mode it will take away everything you just did.
The point is just to add and add, or add until you are happy with how it sounds. Its up to the musician to record their layers in a way that works for them
+Aaron Trindorfer Actually he is using a Boss RC-20xl which is slightly different but functions mostly the same
wowowowowwowowowoowowowowowowowoowowowowowowowowow he so good dude
Remarkable.... impressive. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hendrix
Clapton
Page
Beck
Gilmour
White
Sheeran
Grohl . No order.
Be My Husband by Nina Simone, listen to the version he did for the Warner Live Lounge, it's amazing.
this sounds like "take it back" which means he wrote that over two years ago
lyrics it's the loop in you need me i don't need you. this song and take it back have the same key
Michael Tan not the same key, but the same chords progression
Michael
pkr No it sounds like You Need Me I Don't Need You
So was this comment
Ed Sheeran ♥ !!!
Is the loop station an RC-30 or an RC-20xl?
RC-30, I just got one recently and its superb.
It's a rc-20 xl
I’m getting one at Christmas !
Is that the BOSS RC 20?
what loop machine do you use? if ya could message me with the details thatd be sick. i wanna start. this is inspiring!
Whoa, that's pretty damn good...but uhh, I'm not sure if any amount of my practice I'll ever be "that" good 😉 👍
What pedal does he use?
WONDER WHAT VOCAL PROCESSOR HE IS USING
nice !!
Does this loop pedal let you record voice but then use the voice recoding separate to the guitar
So I can press on the backing (guitar) and then sometimes add harmonies?
Can he delete layers whilst playing?
Samantha's channel you can only remove the most recent loop ... but you can erase the whole loop and make a new one as well
Samantha's channel I have the RC-50, which is a little different then his in this video. Both of them allow you to turn each phrase on and off, once it is built. The RC-50 allows you to undo your most recent recording without destroying everything you've built already.
+SammyT_Music WhosChina is incorrect. You can only start/stop either the left track completely (guitar) or the right track completely (vocals). You cant pick and choose what layers you want to move, after they have been recorded they meld together into one looping track, unless as Cambridge said you undo the most recent track.
What type of loop pedal was that
What’s the name of the loop pedal
Hey @Steve Morris it's the Boss RC-30. I own one myself. Unfortunately they don't make them anymore :(
What is this song
Which kind of guitar he is using? Plz any one name🥰
Sick...
2019?
I have an RC-30 Loopstation and the main problem I'm having is not looping or guitar playing.. It's trying to make sure my tracks don't clip because beating on the guitar makes it too loud.. I'm plugging into an Alesis MultiMix 4 via USB straight into Logic Pro X.. My assumption is that it's the mini mixer I'm using but I'm not sure.. What would someone recommend for a broke person to do? Lol
Try turn the gain to 9 o'clock on the Alesis multimix where the loop pedal is plugged into, keep the pan center, turn the High EQ between 10-12 o'clock and the low EQ between 1-3 o'clock. Then adjust the level to how loud you want it. Make sure you guitar volume is on full & that the loop volume matches with the volume of the guitar as you don't want to loop something that drowns out the guitar whilst being played on top of the loops. If you don't like the settings then try tweak them a little! :)
What song was this?
I believe it's part of You Need Me, I Don't Need You
Great for wanna be singer and musicians🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉hey🎉🎉🎉
I wanna know how his strings sound so crisp, a little distorted yet still vibrant?? Anyone know?
+Paulynn Yong They would most likely be fresh for every performance, and he typically uses the Elixir brand Nanoweb light strings. Gauge is 0.012 - 0.053
What song is this!?!
This reminds me of howie day bunnies
wow it's almost like musicians/singers/songwriters wipe the floor with (c)rappers
Rap bad lmao
You Need Me, I don't need You :) Just for the people that are wondering!
Wear can I buy one?
a music store
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
legit
yeah you don't mess with another brother's mic
Go ginga. And my cuz is a Daddy
*Boss
the boss rc 30 i think
Wow this is amazing. I have recorded some looping videos as I aspire to be like Ed one day. Check them out and tell me what you think
looper = less money to pay musicians = more $$$ for hair products
You ain't wrong tho. You can literally become a one man band with just a looper.
I can't understand why he is opening for Taylor Swift. It should be the other way around!
I really want that size of a guitar that he's been using.
Litle Martin LX1E, its a 3/4th
Da Belgian thanks =)
you're welcome ;)
Just got an LX1E. Not the Ed special addition, but I love it. Had to go to three different stores to find it. Taylor makes a great baby guitar as well.
i got the special edition, its really a good guitar!
Fyi.
Anyone know how he plays the part from 1:56 - 2:08
Getting a good loop first try is no joke. Ed is a VERY specific kind of genius
if you got rhythm, it is pretty easy actually
@@sanderschat I grew up listening to lead belly, sun house and all those Delta boys.
I got soul but no rhythm 😐
@@willkoestner4159 rhythm is learnable
❤sweet goinEd beautiful h my how exciting 😢🎉❤❤❤
The impressive part is that he gets all of the loops in a single pass, properly timed, and blending together properly so that it sounds like a full band. Yeah, it is just one guitar, and he isn't playing anything mind blowingly difficult, but he puts together so many different sounds that all go together amazingly. He takes one instrument and makes a band. I'll check out your channel to see what you can do with one guitar.
Josh Stevenson it’s the great Ed Sheeran 😂
and a loop pedal ;) hehe
Properly timed??!? What fucking video we’re you watching. For how famous and successful he is, he’s surprisingly sloppy.
This is 90% just smoke and mirrors. 10% musical skill.
@@9hk38f how so?
I think he needs to do a lesson of this loop I cant stop listening to it its awesome
It’s actually quite simple. What isn’t simple, is combining all the layers in to one sound, if you get what I mean. It’s way harder than it looks - he isn’t playing anything super complicated on the guitar, but it is not easy at all to get it to sound right. One small timing/note screw up in just a single layer of the 6-7 layers he lays down here, and it’ll sound all fucked up.
He truly is insanely talented, and has spent thousands of hours on the loop pedal.
there's nothing cooler than seeing someone doing this kind of thing live though.
Awesome. I have all the basic instruments in my house and can’t even do a good intro.. this guy just got one little guitar & does it all 😆
Incredible talent👌 he’s brought looping to the mainstream
Damn you Ed Sheeran! You manage to do, what I have wanted to do for years, in a simple, single take! Maybe there's still hope!
for educational purposes this is great and he is a dab hand at looping (massive understatement) but musicians: don't base your entire set around this method, it gets really tiresome watching an artist spend the first two minutes of every song building up loops and then starting the song for real. the song has to start from 0:00, not from 2:24 or whenever. sure, maybe one or two songs with a long build but for the rest, get creative and try to sneak in the loops as much as you can. the artifice is not that mind-blowing that it can stand being repeated ten times in an evening.
Very clever, 9 years ago. Today a big star that fills up stadiums. Was at his concert in Vienna yesterday. It was great! Well done, what a talent.
I've got the same pedal - it's a lot of fun but I'm not sure that the dual pedal RC30 is better than 2x singles. It offers quite a lot less options and is harder to work with realtime, but it's only like $50 cheaper than two solo's
Just got this loop station yesterday for my birthday!
Ob 1 now it's 5 years 😂
6 years
I really liked this so much it sounded amazing :)
Actually, I think it's an rc-20xl. The rc-30 has two switches for volume, but the rc-20xl has knobs.
Certainly. It's BOSS RC-20XL. There is no YoYo or JoJo
he's brilliant
It's called timing but now the pedals time stretch and quantize in real time so it's not as hard as it used to be with old school gear. Used to play over a tape echo loop,
Remember when Ed Sheeran used RC 30 instead of his Chewie?
so basically you can use only one chord progression on a song.
Chris Aguilar Not sure if the Boss pedal he's using in this video can do it, but you can get loop pedals that can have seperate groupings of layers, so you can move between different sections. This is where quantization comes in handy, because you can have two sections running at the same tempo, and move between them without losing flow.
And, of course, you can always just go back to playing live with the single voice of the guitar. But yes, I think a lot of Ed's music is built around live looping, which is why it's essentially all groove oriented, except for the more traditional singer songwriter material where you don't need to have a strong rhythm.
+Geir Offenberg would you recommend the boss rc30 or the ditto x4 for this kind of stuff?
Many songs use only one chord progression throughout!
This is part of you need me I don’t need you which has lots of chord progressions! Go watch the 14 minute version !
the Boss RC-300 is basically three of these pedals in one big board + some extra's. With that you can do different progressions in one song, but it's not super trivial.
You need me man, I don't need you.
Man, loop stations are impressive timing and layering but boy does it get annoying hearing that same fucking loop over and over and over again. Give me a full band of musicians and change that shit up!
exactly what I want to be able to do haha
wow amazing I just discovered loop pedal and then I see a lotta great stuff and this is the best I've seen yet
Still waiting on the tutorial part... this is just an ed sheeran performance, I didn't learn anything I didn't already know
I just noticed something, many people asking what type looper is he using and multiple answers... So many wrong answers... geez. He is clearly using the Boss RC-20xl. It shows it on the video, so then why all the wrong answers? It is not the RC-30.... It is the RC-20xl
Superb. Just got the rc 300 cannot wait to jam the shit out of it
Does anyone recognise the loop station model he is using (1:38)? Not the RC-30 I know of.
same question
oh I've seen someone say it's RC-20XL :)
But he’s using a boss rc 20xl not rc 30
He's a standard. You're forgetting that what makes his music great is the lack of complication he puts in it. I'm aware that this isn't the best side of his guitar skill, he just might be able to do cool solos (in fact there's a solo in Kiss Me which sounds decent) but he just doesn't like to create too loud music.
anyone know what tuning he's in?
drop D (:
+Anne Raven if you mean the song: it's u need me ^^
he's got lots of different versions but this one is the excact same as in the live room ^^
+Gillian T No they're talking about the tuning of the guitar...which is Drop D. I mean I don't blame you for not knowing about guitar tho..
+Lynx The Glorified OMG pmsl some people don't have a clue!
Totalmente extraordinario un gran compositor musico y cantante
I see:
I have to do another million tutorials like this one ...
... and then still have enough problems with my little looping station...
What a genius in music, humor and sympathy !
Yeah nice on Ed.... But sadly, Tommy Emmanuel playing Initiation has been doing it for longer & without looping. MASTERCLASS
Love Tommy and Initiation! I've seen Tommy and a few other guitarists live a bunch of times that choose not to use a loop pedal. I wonder what they would sound like if they did, I guess their magic is they still sound great without one. Each to their own I guess. I'm always impressed by Ed's level of accuracy, he's human of course but I don't think I've ever heard anything that sticks out, his grooves always "feel good" too, great pocket and touch.
