Sub Pro : 2 channel setup tutorial
In the last video I showed you how to set up your Sub Pro for a one channel output. This time we’re going to utilise 2 of the available 4 outputs of the Pro. I’m going to show you how, in addition to the sub octave bass you can apply a delay effect to just the upper three strings of your guitar.Last time we used this electroharmonix pitchfork as a sub octave pedal to give the effect of a bass guitar doubling the E and A strings. And we’re doing the same again here.As before one adaptor cable is plugged into the Sub Pro. And I did mention last time that this cable carries two channels. But because we want to both channels instead of using a mono guitar cable we’ll use a Y-split cable. A Y split cable has a stereo jack one end and two mono jacks the other. All of these cables are available from the shop at www.submarinepickup.com Let’s plug that the stereo end to the adapter cableSo let’s zoom in and have a check the the switches. As before the low E and A are switched to the left, routing those signals to output 1And strings G B E are routed to output 2Output 1, the white mono jack , is sent to the pitchfork as before -that will give us our octave bass. Output 2 , the red, is plugged into this delay. A Way Huge Aqua Puss - great pedal.If I turn down the volume on the guitar again you can hear the Sub Bass on the E and A and the delay on string G B E. To make this a bit clearer I’ve panned the Sub octave to the left and the delay to the right. You’ll hear the effect of both the Sub Octave and the panning if you use some headphone here.let’s try another upside down back to front chordThis separation of signals from different strings means your baselines stay nice and clean, punchy and subby and the delay is only applied to your melody or rhythm parts here. And conversely your treble strings aren’t muddied by the sub octaveOnce again you could choose any pedals and any combination of strings. I particularly like to use compression and overdrive on the treble strings. But octave up fuzz is great, dreamy reverbs on single strings are wonderful. Or maybe you’d just like to bypass the regular pickups entirely run a stereo amp setup directly from the Sub Pro.In a future video I’ll show you what happens when you plug in two adaptor cable and how that splits the pickup in two giving you up to four outputs.

Sub Pro : 1 channel setup tutorial
Today we’re going to set the Sub Pro up to in its most simple configuration; a one channel output. We’re going to isolate sound from two of the strings, drop them an octave, to give the effect of a bass guitar doubling the E and the A strings We plug in the adaptor cable into either one of the minijack sockets of the Sub Pro.Now this cable is stereo, it can carry two signals and in the next video I’ll show you how to get more outputs from the Sub Pro. But for the purposes of this demo we’re just going to use a regular mono guitar cable, a patch cable to deliver the signal from the Sub Pro to this electro harmonix Pitchfork. This pedal is pretty versatile but all we need it to do right now is to drop the signal by one octave.Now we need to select which strings we’re going to send from the Sub Pro to the pitchfork. Each string of the pickup has its own corresponding switch. And we’re going to send the E and the A to channel one. Which we do by moving these two switches to the left.Now if we make sure the volume the regular pickups is turned down, we’ll just hear the output of the Sub Pro. There you can hear just the E and A but not the other four strings.Now if we turn the octave pedal on you can hear the effect is applied to those two strings. And if we turn the volume back up you’ll hear it has not affect the others.And i’ll do my best to play an upside down back to front chord you’ll hear the the combination of the Sub Pro and the pitchfork is extending the range of this guitar into bass territory. You may want to use some headphones to hear those bass notesIf we just mute the Sub pro channel for a second. **strum** you can hear the regular output.And now we unmute **strum** you can hear this extended bass. Simple and versatile. You could choose any pedal and any combination of strings. For example you could isolate sound from the top B and E and pitch shift them up and octave or you could apply delay and reverb to just those strings leaving the rest of the guitar unaffected. The beginnings of many sound from one guitar.Thanks for watching. In the next video I’m going to show you how to use two of the four available outputs on the Sub Pro.
