Hi. Sorry if this has been covered but I DID search it. What type of sound is roger waters using on another brick in the wall part 2? I'm not sure if its echo, chorus, or delay. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Give me a few minutes... I'm going to listen to the song again.

| | | | I think bigbass94 is talking about "The Happiest Days of Our Lives" - the intro to ABITW-II. There is definitely delay there. The rest of the song is without delay; Waters uses a P-bass with flats and a pick, I'd say there is some heavy compression and a slight chorus. |

| | | Thank you so freakin much. I just started getting back into pink floyd. Now it make sense! I feel like a dumba$$. Now to find a good delay pedal. HUMM

The drop D really gives a special sound to the open D. |

Top track though.

I play all three parts clean and in drop D and let the guitarist use all the effects, mostly delay. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
