@@fulguroblastor5594 thank you! Actually, no, very much depends on how the amp is set up, I guess. What are you playing through?

@@PedalsandTea Thanks for the reply! I tried it through various things: Victory V40 (fully clean, quite neutral, no way to get break up), Orange Super Crush (also clean), and Kuro T120 pedal (emulating the preamp of a Matamp GT120, not clean at all). In the last case it gets kind of crazy, but the character of the pedal kinda disappears in the Matamp-y sound.

@fulguroblastor5594 yeah I know what you mean with the t120. I Had one years ago but was too inexperienced to dial it in properly. Now I regret selling it. With Fender style amps (which the V40 IS as far as I know) there's a squishy thing happening in the low mids that's sometimes weird with Muffs in my experience. Played a Deluxe Reverb on a few tours...it doesn't like Muffs. I made a video about Fender vs Marshall input channels that shows that dynamic a little bit. You can try adding a few more mids and cutting some bass and see how that works. Another great visual aid is the tone stack calculator website (just google "tsc in the web") :) Hope that helps!

@@PedalsandTea Thanks for the info. Yeah I know TSC, I've spent way too much time on it when going down the custom-muffs rabbit hole :) Guess it's time to pick up the Pharaoh from the shelf and try it again and again!

@dots.sounds thank youuuu :) P. Isabella coming soon as well:)

@@KeithShelley1 thank you :) P. Isabella demo coming soon :)

@@TheGallery213 the intro is Brass Neck into Incorrupta as well:)

@@RocketToSleep Brass Neck pairs so well with everything and sounds incredible on its own, too. In a live setting, it's my always on "clean" channel and then I kick on another drive after it for different gain flavours. 👍

@@TheFunky57 LED is really nice, too :) i mean, the diode configuration will highly depend on the layout so it might feel different to play on different pedals

@@DirtyDemos yeah FET is where it's at for me as well :)

@PedalsandTea great minds think alike

@@tactilianvte3529 I am only on the edge of the Rat-rabbithole. Kinda scared what I might find once I fall into it 😄

@@TheloniousBosch guess I should look into that one :) thanks for the recommendation!

@@PedalsandTea ...The comment was a general one that PoopToobers and pedal companies are always pushing of all of their merchandise as if it's the last item of that kind we will ever need...and never assume that someone commenting on a subject are ignorant of what it is they are hilighting. I have erudite knowledge of many esoteric pursuites or hobbies or indeed just general intelectual pursuites. As for music gear I have several thousands of GBP invested in all manner of effects, guitars, power amps and amplifiers et al...you really must stop with the victim mentality...

​@@hekakain4108 not my words, good Sir 😌 but I really love this one. Tbf, all the Moth Electric stuff is really great. I think I misread your comment earlier, my bad. ❤️ There's so many accusations of shilling and cash grabbing towards small creators who don't make any money from these videos or pedal sales that it's sometimes hard to navigate what is sarcasm and what is trolling. :3

@@BrySquatch thank you! Yeah the range on this one is insane!

don´t make me want another amp! :D

@@sgall161 thank you! :) It's super fun to change out different Germanium based boosts like Brass Neck, Germ Warfare or Arborist for example. They buffer the entire dirt chain in their own unique way.

@PedalsandTea Germ Warfare is my bucket list one. Love germanium saturation.

@@DavidMadeira29 Hi :) Bleach is really cool actually. While the chorus side can be pretty excessive, there's some really wonderful low to medium gain tones with subtle movement in there as well 👍 Cheers

@@KaiDown yeah that's such a cool combo! Love it for lead parts in one band that does the drug church-ish HC thing. thanks for watching! :)

@@DirtyDemos yes it is but I got another pedal demo coming next week that I like even better :)

@PedalsandTea ooooh yeah

@@gobigshred5 completely different animal :) Longsword is a distortion that's mostly at home in medium to crunchy high gain while the feel and overall vibe with Regalis is much more of a big OD. You might wanna look into A. Incorrupta (video next week) if you are looking for a distortion that can do both really well.

@@sgall161 thank you! Yeah I love his playing :) im in Drop C Here, though

@PedalsandTea Even better. More eerie-sounding. Great playing. You've got great taste, mate. Get sick of blues dentists or metal shredders demoing pedals. The Brassneck sounds like outstanding overdrive. On my end-of-month purchases. Thanks again for such a refreshing demo. Ear candy.

@@sgall161 Thank you :) haha even if I wanted to, I can´t shred or play blues so here we are

@@justinreynoldscomposer thank you! :) Yeah the bottom Input is louder on each channel. Not a huge fan of the plugin or modelers with pedals usually. Not necessarily for sound reasons but the feel is way off 🫠 Nah I won't sell :)

@@TheLaughingMan04 they are really not that expensive in Europe, especially the late 70s 2 Input versions which I think is the best bang for the buck. I have both and while there are differences, both are incredible amps

@@DirtyDemos thanks man! Depends on the IR of course but I do think there are better sounding loadboxes than the captor from what I've seen.

@PedalsandTea I tried so many of them and finally said eff it. If I get another one, it will probably be a Fryertte Power Station or St. Rock React: IR II though.

@@kurocustomaudio come over, I have 2 😄

@@PedalsandTea I should! And bring some other loud stuff

@@kurocustomaudio yaaaay 🎉

@@Beadlock_ thank you! Yeah I didn't see many videos with more "modern" tones so this was particularly exciting for me 👍 I don't know how accutately the QC model reacts but that's super cool, let me know how well it does!

no wonder the moth electric light OD sounds have such great textures

@@nathanmachine- Thank you very much. I try to coax usable sounds out of as many settings as possible when designing, the Hiwatt definitely takes some guess work out of what I'm hearing. If something sucks, a Hiwatt will let you know haha.

@@MothElectric thanks man :) yeah i love these amps. Even though they can be "rude" like that, letting me know when my setup or playing sucks 😌 Incorrupta and Isabella should be getting here today. I have a feeling they will kick some stuff off the board in no time.

@@MothElectric I really love the sound of the C. Regalis! I use the H&K Grandmeister 36 for my distortion...but I think the C. Regalis might be able to add some other character to a low gain sound, especially if it's able to sustain grit at lower gain? I don't have too many audio examples to go by, but Pedals and Tea's demo sounds wonderful, thanks to his playing of course, and the Hiwatt, and whatever speakers he was using on his first Moth Electric demo a month ago. I might be interested in a purchase??!!

@@justinreynoldscomposer Hey, appreciate the interest. It's quite dynamic and responds to your pick attack and volume knob, so there's plenty of grit to be had at lower gain settings. I feel like the drive knob from 10 o'clock to 1 o'clock is where that kind of thing lives. It turns into more of a distortion past 2 and is more of a dirty boost before 10.

@@fiveways definitely!

I always ran a dimed Matamp with my band for stoner/doom and only heard positive things about the live tones….i think part of it is that some amps really excel and sound their best cranked up but it’s a big, warm tone. Not harsh or grating so it doesn’t have the perceived loudness on the ears, it’s more of a vibrate your viscera kinda thing which is much more enjoyable for people to stand in front of. The grit from the phase inverter and power tubes being pushed is like a hug from Bigfoot, warm and fuzzy.

@@louderthangod Pants flapping in front of the stack is always the best way to play. lol

​@@louderthangod My bands all play loud stage volume. That being said, I do know people who like the pushed Hiwatt tones but would absolutely need an attenuator for their gigs. Let's be real, for the Indiefolk/Pop/Americana gigs I play, I bring a smaller amp that I can push a bit. Lugging this thing there would a) make me look like a self-indulging douche and b) inconvenience everybody else due to size, weight and volume. Just overkill in those situations. That's why I put that sentence there. There's a right tool for the right job. :) With the HC/Shoegaze projects...yeah this one rips. And one of my favourite shows to see was also the loudest. Slift. A couple years back. Force of nature.

​@@louderthangodHug from Bigfoot is a great way to put it 😂

@@fiveways you can use any IR loader loadbox. The IR I've been using is Mix #5 (Md421, R121) from the York Audio Hiwatt Fane pack. For live I just use a 212 with Fane Medusa 150 👍

@@SeanRyanTempleton thank you :) yeah it's always a matter of taste

@@lilymakesnoise oh that is a big compliment, thank you! And I should really try the Muff/Percolator combo! :)

@@SeanRyanTempleton it's in Drop C 👍

Thanks. Your chord shapes sound incredible. I miss the days when you had shots of your playing (as a visual learner 😅). Keep educating and inspiring, homie.

@@SeanRyanTempleton it's mostly open chords with Maj7 or 9 shapes I think :)

@@samcheesmore_ thank you that means lot! :)

@@ThornWithin thank you :) I use a Twonotes Torpedo Captor X with an IR of a Hiwatt cab with Fane speakers (which sounds pretty close to my actual Hiwatt cab mic'd up but it's just way too loud to record Here)

@@KaiDown thanks man :) will keep doing this kind of format now and again

@@RocketToSleep thank you! Yeah Botanica really pushes some mids:)

@@DravenxEyeless glad I could help! :) I Love finding new ways to use gear I already own, it's a whole new appreciation for 'em

​@@PedalsandTea I'm back. Yeah, it does the thing! The tone knob is a godsent for this. Thanks again! However, have you noticed noise or hum when your bifet is connected? I noticed that mine was super noisy, even when off. Put another pedal, no issue. I looked it up, and it seems plenty of people have the same issue. It's a ground problem, which I solved by doing some soldering with a solution posted on "The Gear Page", and now it's even working better than before? Check yours, maybe you also have it

@DravenxEyeless thanks for the heads up:) No mine is quiet 👍

@@BMinusDemos definitely a lot in there :) but never really subtle, you'll always know when it's on ☺️

@@KaiDown thanks man :) yeah Brass Neck is crazy good. Highly recommend!

@@matrigs sadly no, I can't say anything on that one 😬 thanks for watching!

@@PedalsandTea thanks for recording. i bought the soot thanks to your video :)

@@louderthangod weeeeeell it's not a Muff 🫠

@@derrickdavila_art thank you so much! Can't go wrong with either one. 👍

@@andrews6505 thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 👍

Though actually disappointed it's not called MUFF SLAYER

@@m-baka haha yeah Muff Slayer would have been perfect 😄

@@gooseabuse haha perfect!

@@KaiDown ❤️

@@DirtyDemos yes it is :) and quite a bit less compressed than a Muff, which i really like
