Thank you for this video! Very useful for beginners like me. Subscribed. :)
Happy to hear that! Thanks for the sub :)
Kool Vid. I agree 👍🏽 with your take on this subject. I have over 20 different pedals for different use and they spark more creativity than VSTs for the long run.(Thats my take) I would definitely start out with a Computer, Interface, and your instruments of choice first. Im a Ableton & Logic user. I would definitely be working up to a Pedals board next after those first components. Especially for Ambient music. VSTs FXs work great also. Love them. ONLY PROBLEM WAS UPGRADING TO A M3 MACBOOK AND SOME OF MY VST'S & PLUG-INS NOT WORKING PROPERLY or NOT WORKING AT ALL and also trying to log back in to re-download them. Forgetting passwords and Searching old emails to reconnect with them. It was a ClusterFunk. Meanwhile my Pedals and Hardware Synths where ready to Go‼️No Download Required.
That's so annoying :/ And a very good point I could have brought up. Software can require some work to maintain, especially when setting up on a new computer. I hope your plugins become M3 Mac-compatible soon :) The stable nature of a pedalboard should not be underestimated
