U2 California Guitar Cover

April 22nd, 2015

Back in October, 2014 I learned the live version of California by U2, programmed it into my guitar rig and made the following video:

I did not use any hardware effects. All I used was Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5 and Rig Kontrol running stereo into two Vox AC30’s.

Here is the U2 performance that I based my cover on.

For you Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5 players, here’s a link to download my California preset. And below are images of my settings.

I created 4 containers. Each container is assigned to rig control preset:

0-uzoo-gr5-california-containers

Container one holds the setting for the opening reverse effect. There is a tremolo effect that The Edge uses that I still need to add. Also, I run my rig stereo to two Vox AC30’s, so for you GR5 players with with mono setups, your results may vary:

1-uzoo-gr5-california-intro

This container has the setting for all the verses:

2-uzoo-gr5-california-verse

These are the settings for the chorus:

3-uzoo-gr5-california-chorus

Here are the guitar solo settings in container four:

4-uzoo-gr5-california-solo

These are the post-processing settings:

5-uzoo-gr5-california-post

And finally the setting that assign each container to switches on the Rig Kontrol pedal board:

Container 1 Trigger:

6-uzoo-gr5-california-sw1

Container 2 Trigger:

7-uzoo-gr5-california-sw2

Container 3 Trigger:

8-uzoo-gr5-california-sw3

Container 4 Trigger:

9-uzoo-gr5-california-sw4
