"For me, who obviously is a gear nut, it's absolutely fantastic..."


We’re very happy to share this brilliant video from Alex Ball, exploring the SubSix through a series of hexaphonic guitar experiments.

Alex takes the six individual string outputs and uses them as the basis for a set of unusual set-ups: chopped rhythms, wide stereo movement, per-string delays, dirty textures, filtering and ring modulation

What we love about the video is how naturally it shows the SubSix as a creative tool. The guitar is still very much there, but very far from the traditional ways: sometimes into big, spacious guitar sounds, sometimes into something much stranger more in synth-land But no midi!

Massive thanks to Alex Ball, great video!
