The Gmc Borderline Group Program Options

[Gabriel Leopardi]

We have noticed several GMC’ers are bordering a “threshold experience” - meaning they are about to reach a new level.

Taking those final steps can be a frustrating experience - because the closer we get to our goals, there more confused we get about why we haven’t achieved them yet. Our vision gets blurred. It is easy for students who practice a lot to loose perspective on their own level and progress.

We don’t want you to just sit at home and “wait for something to happen” - therefore we are launching a new kind of group mentoring where we select students who we think are close to this threshold experience.

So what is this program about?

The goal is to help you overcome your threshold in a fast way.

1 - I will contact members via pm who we think have the right level for this. These students have been chosen after researching everybody’s work at the forum (REC program, Collabs, Mentoring programs, Workouts and other threads).

2 - I will give ~weekly assignments with *strict deadlines* that should be respected to accomplish the objectives of this course. You will have to work on them during the whole week and share a take to let us analyze it and decide if you pass to the next assignment.

So again - the idea is not for you to sit and wait for the ‘train to pick you up’. Instead, *you will have to work hard to remain on this train!* So this program will require much more work, and in return the rewards will be much greater.

3 - At the end of the course, we will set a date to have a live stream at the chat-room to hear the students who reached the end of the program rocking some of the assignments.

If you want to know what you must do to qualify for this program, please contact me.

If the goal was to explore our gear, mission accomplished. The noise gate was right out because of the volume swells and I had to try to solve the hum/buzz that was left behind. There are about a million different places in the Pod to adjust the volume and gain and I learned that my understanding of what did what was all wrong. I had been using the master volume, which controlled the amp's power section to volume-level my patches. Of course, this affects the tone a lot but I hadn't noticed. The channel volume is a transparent volume control which is the right answer. After learning that vital nugget, I wasn't fighting to build a decent tone with the amp power section cranked. It made it a lot easier All my old patches are pretty much out the window though...

hehehe that's great mate! Yeah, I used a Pod in the past and remember that the master volume could quit drive in my tones if it wasn't used in 10 while the channel volume was a normal leveler. This information is vital to do the things right when setting a tone.

Keep on experimenting!

so you guys would have the master volume ( is that the one on the actual unit? ) running quite high and the channel volume on the amp lower?

Here's how I understand it now...

MASTER (hardware knob on unit) - Tone-transparent volume for controlling output volume from unit. At max level you have highest signal-to-noise ratio. I use SPDIF out to an audio interface, so this stays at maximum for me. It'd probably be more useful if you were gigging in different venues.

Ch.Vol (Edit software) / VOLUME (hardware knob) - Tone-transparent volume knob for leveling patch volumes. Keep at around 50% to start to have some room up and down.

Gain (Edit software & hardware knob) - Amp preamp gain stage

Master (Edit software and editable parameter) - In "Amp Parameters" Amp poweramp gain stage

Mixer: This is the one I understand the least at this point. I think it's primary purpose is to adjust volumes when using dual amps.
