Jason gives the G7th Performance 3 capo a review and tests the Adaptive Radius Technology.

This helpful tutorial shows you how to install the patches you’ve purchased into your Omnisphere setup. Ryan, our lead keyboard instructor, uses the example of 1000 Tongues by Vertical Worship to walk you through every step of downloading and installing a patch. 
 

There are a few different products on the market ranging from $20-$100, depending on what you purchase, to help you find that perfect snare sound. Well, here's a quick and simple way to help you get that "phat", "gushy" sounding snare drum that's FREE! Check it!

You’ve got everything set up and practice is just starting. You go to strum your first chord and all you hear is silence. Now what?

My board has been through a lot of changes lately and I couldn't be happier. Here's a rundown of the new signal chain. *Note: When I turn on the compressor the amp overdrives in the video. That's not a typical compressor feature. It's because I have the level turned up a bit so it strengthens the signal into the tubes. I'll go into more detail in my compressor walkthrough.

What do I need in order to sound like the album?  How do I get that Hillsong/Elevation/Jesus Culture sound? What gear are they using?  In the past, you would have needed to save up a ton of money to buy about a dozen different keyboards, modules, pedals, and more. Fortunately with today’s technology, you don’t have to do that, thanks to ‘soft synths’ and patches.
