The genius of this pedal is that you made it affordable. Everyone loves your pedals but no one can afford them. Now there is at least one accessible pedal from you guys that is very usable.
@@heythatsprettynoice65 I agree, I would just check Reverb for used deals. There isn't much difference between 99 dollars and 115-130 dollars, as long as you're okay with used stuff. I just got a Hoof for 110, a Talons for 85 and a Dispatch Master for 100.
TH-cam compression isn't the same as Audio compression in a studio or from a pedal. TH-cam compression "compresses" the amount of data required to store a signal. This type of compression isn't audible, and It's not the same as studio compression or pedal compression which you can actually hear as a steady volume level.
This pedal has solved my hate/love relationship with ts-like pedal. I love the mid hump but hate the lack of high frequencies. I was about to give up and then I read of this pedal. Affordable price, last chance. Well, WOW. Thank you guys. You created a f****** monster. Another keeper after the beloved Ghost Echo.
This pedal is two things for me...a tube screamer for people who don’t like tube screamers (as is mentioned here) and an ocd for people who don’t like the ocd. I fall into that second category. I’ve always liked the *concept* of the ocd but I’ve just never gotten along with it. They go from “not quite enough gain” to “too much gain” almost immediately and I’ve always had a problem getting the midrange I like. This pedal (specifically in sym LED mode) has a very similar vibe to the ocd but allows for a lot more nuance, control and midrange character. Really...it’s almost a perfect crash landing between the the ts and the ocd. That and it pairs beautifully with my palisades and prince/king of tone drives...
I picked up the Plumes last week was a bit skeptical because of the low price so I tried it out at the music store and was like blown away because it is a good sounding pedal and it's not noisy and it sound good with other drive pedals you guys nailed this pedal I'am a fan for life great job EQD!!!
Hey guys, I live about 15 min. from your headquarters, and I was able to attend the EarthQuaker fest over the summer. While there, I managed to snag one of these in the orange and blue color scheme, and I can safely say that it has earned its spot on my pedalboard, and has quickly become my favorite drive for its dynamic breadth of tones. Please never stop, and continue letting the world know what Akron has to offer! -Alex
I'm an old Akron boy. North Hill, North High School. Moved away several years ago, but would love to come to the Fest sometime. Have to make a Ghoulardi Fest at some point, too. I bought the Plumes today. 3 pedals are going up sale tonight. Don't need them now.
Mine came in the mail today. It’s the best tubescreamer pedal for the money. As a tubescreamer fan and owner of multiple tubescreamers including the Nu tube model, I can’t recommend the Plumes enough. All three modes are full of tone and usable by anyone in any setting.
I wish Cory played on every TH-cam pedal demonstration. Excellent style. P.s. I bought a Plumes off the back of this video. Mode 2, gain at 11 o'clock and the tone rolled down low gives the most beautiful 'clean' tone.
Great pedal, picked one up at Earthquaker day. Very impressed with how well the pedal cuts through. It kicked the Palisades off my board. Well done Mr. Stillman! Price is great too!
love my plumes! i play mathcore and this was a great addition to really boost my PRS ARCHON and Peavey 6534+! thank you so much for detaling this awesome pedal!
I bought this pedal this week. One of the really useful features that you didn't mention is the flexi switch. Momentary and latch switch in one. Very good switch, very useful, especially when using the pedal as boost (mode 2).
Mode 2 with about 5% gain is now my 'always on' setting/pedal. Great for clean finger picking, light gain when strumming full chords, and a clean(ish) boost when I add a distortion pedal. Fantastic!
You know why? It's noisy as hell, and is very effective and sensitive to an extreme.It's an old school design that most can't handle.They were discontinuing due to running out of the black glass components.Buy more soon. I use a Naga Viper now, which isn't quite as biting, but does have a full boost range,- and is dead quiet.But you're right,- it's a great pedal.
I've been after one. I let one slip by while I was trying to bid the price down a bit and now there are none for sale that I can see. I agree it sounds slappin'.
Amazing demo, really appreciate all the styles of play including dirt and cleans and in between. Will be my first earthwuaker pedal to pair with my first jazzmaster arriving this week!
I´ve never been a fan of TS pedals but then again, this is totally somehting else. I like to play heavy riffs and like my distpedals punchy and gainy. Plumes is just..so organic, lot´s of headroom and still nicely crunch and bite. I´d say it´s a mid gain rocking pedal with high end sound quality. I so love this pedal.
As a bass player that plays more blues, doom and low key psyche, I only use a handful of pedals. Two the 5 are from y'all and this one is almost never turned off when I'm playing. Ridiculously high quality pedal for the price. This thing's gonna go down in overdrive history as one the best.
Dude me too, it is on my doom board fulltime that is also a great blues board. I run a Klon type OD as a clean boost, 90's GR BM and Plumes last in mode 3 then Boss GE7 EQ into an 75 OR120 or a 74 Plexi and....just wow is all I got to say.
I bought it today. It's great!. My old hometown boys did great with this. Go Vikings! North Hill Rules! Two things about Akron. Great pizza, and great pedals. Wish I still lived there.
Everyone's kinda selling Mode 2 a little short. It's no mere boost. Max the gain out in Mode 2 and see what I mean. Such a great sound you might forget about the other 2 modes.
And adversely... set the gain in mode 2 all the way DOWN with a high gain amp and hear a BIG difference in the structure of your distortion, especially with palm muting. I just leave mine on all the time now.
This pedal is fantastic, it has become by go to tube screamer. Mode 3 is where you want to be for your traditional TS sound, mode 2 is like a vintage crunch and mode 1 is like a more open not compressed TS sound IMO. And the price is great, they really struck gold with this thing. Also, if you are a Fuzz guy, put this after your fuzz and it will tighten it up and shape your tone. Klon OD for clean boost, Fuzz then Plumes and you will really get some pro tones.
This is my first pedal been playing for 5 months and its pretty sweet my favorite settings are gain at 3 oclock volume at 9 oclock and tone at 11oclock switch in 3rd position
Absolutely favorite of. Got introduced in the neural granophyre. Then bought one. Can't be touched IMO. Plus it gives such a uniqueness that other typical units dont.
Transmisser art looming in the background of this good runthrough of Plumes, making me wish a new Transmisser was out to pair with this wonderful overdrive
Cory, that white Tele has a gorgeous fretboard on it, and the 3 toggles? Lower horn local is a cool idea. Gorgeous guitar. I haven't heard of that company, I'm going to check em out
I just got one and my turbo tube screamer blows it out of the water. I’m sending it back and ordering a Maxon 2 the red one and gonna try that. The search continues.
Jason Tsimplakos I have the same two pedals. I've liked it before as a low gain treble boost to cut through with my westwood. Have you tried any other configurations yet?
Notice what is said about the input/output buffers.I'm not an expert, but those are the options,- boost the signal, or change the impedance; the latter greatly changes the signal content. Combine with the Bellows, and hell. is. a. popping. Much better option than an 808 type.
Bought one a few days ago. Great pedal but mine has an yellowish orange on/off LED and most of the ones I've seen online seem to be bright white. Was the LED on/off indicator color changed or do I have a bum pedal?
Your pedal is awesome, but why did you put the switch in the middle of the gain and volume dials? It's slightly annoying that you almost always change the volume and gain when you change the switch. How come it's not like a 1/2 inch above that position? Is there a reason for it? Great pedal though.
These licks were very similar to my style. I’ve been searching for an OD that would do well before my Timmy. How do you think they’d pair? Great video btw! [Chain: comp>Pog>Q-Tron>Vibe>volume>Timmy>delay>Tera-echo>Slö>HoF>looper]
Harmonics are generated from a combination of factors, including those outside any pedal circuit. That being said, the level of clarity and presence added by using Plumes is tough to beat. Sending your harmonically rich playing/pickups into Plumes, and then into a well designed amplifier will definitely make you smile. I pick Plumes.
Not sure about the pedal, but that amp is just getting destroyed. The speaker sounds like its made from flubber. I'm thinking the amp is going to start bouncing off the walls uncontrollably, until @7:30 when all of a sudden it finally tightened up and got some note clarity.
hi what can be done to eliminate the noise/ hum,? its the only pedal on the board that does this The sound i have dialed in from the plumes is brilliant , very happy ,but you cant record or do the live shows with out this continuous interference, we have eliminated it to an except able level. with a Radial stage bug , but is this due to not being true by pass ? or just the inherent design? i hope you can advice what we can do to correct this issue kind regards s f
@@EarthQuakerDevices please just forward my comments to your customer or design team, this is a constructive design flow that needs addressing for studio recording, but if this is not suitable for recording please make it known thank you.
Just order the Plumes pedal to use with my bass. It will be my first pedal and I'm wondering if I need to add it between my bass and my amp, or in the fx loop of my amp.
We recommend trying it before the input of your amp. If you have a parallel fx loop with a blend control, you can try that next but just make sure all levels are minimal before powering up. Feel free to reach out to us for tech help here: www.earthquakerdevices.com/contact Thanks for your support!
Plumes is $99. Check out the details here www.earthquakerdevices.com/plumes. You can also search for a dealer on our site. www.earthquakerdevices.com/dealers.
I love the sounds I'm getting but it's easily 4 times as loud as any overdrive or distortion pedal I've ever had. I have to keep the level nob barely on....
You can dial in some similar sounds, but Plumes is extended in the gain realm and more emphasis on the midrange. Plumes is also true bypass and you can bury the tone control and still sound great. The three modes of Plumes also give it a unique versatility. Those are probably the main differences.
I have TWO more questions if you don't mind. (They might need the same answer idk haha) 1: Do you think I should switch my pedal order? My Order: A: Ernie Ball VP Jr (tuner in bypass output) B: MXR Super Comp C: Dunlop WAH D: Boss Blues Driver E: MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe F: MXR Reverb G: Boss Loop RC-1 2: If you think I need another pedal, which one of yours would you recommend? (artists I like if this helps; Beck, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, Gary Clark Jr, The Black Keys, Arctic Monkeys, also TH-cam Musicians like Sean Angus Watson and Paul Davids, and I like to dabble in some ambient) SORRY FOR THE LONG COMMENT haha
Your order seems fine. Classic. Seems like you can nail everything in your tastes with what you have already. If you want more heavy fuzz or weird modulation, we can help.
The examples in this video are VERY dark sounding. Maybe it’s TH-cam compression...? Does the PLUMES a disservice I think.... just my opinion. Maybe should’ve used more than Fender style guitars....? Not blaming fender guitars for being dark, just thought there might be more of a well rounded demo with maybe a couple Gibsons. Keep rocking! - B
I wouldn't say it's just you I mean, maybe one or two other people have said that also. Maybe you guys all have the same 1.3mm speakers or something. dunno. Thanks for watching, have a great day!
Sounds as though there is too much bass making the amp flabby. Not good for a band context. I like the new take on the circuit though - let's see what other demos bring us.
They should put a tube screamer in front of it to make it less muddy. Always heard good things of this pedal, I might get one soon. But parts of this video definitely sound muddy. Focal speakers user.
I love this pedal on a lot of other videos I've seen, but it sounds rough in this one. It's so muffled and muddy sounding, like the tone is turned all the way down. Very dark, and not in a good way.
@Nilly Sigger funny as I really disliked Andy's demo of this pedal but liked many other of his demos. Much prefered these sounds but hey this was into a SUPROOOOOHHOOOO :D 15" by the sound of it!
Wish you didn't gloss over the fact that this was only internal for like 5 seconds before I bought one, now its about to get here and I don't have a DC adapter.
2:40 minutes: "the Plumes runs at plus or minus 9 volts internally." Not only is that not a thing, but why would it increase headroom? Something's odd about that statement. It's like he looked at the polarity symbol and created a feature. Pedal is still cool, however.
The genius of this pedal is that you made it affordable. Everyone loves your pedals but no one can afford them. Now there is at least one accessible pedal from you guys that is very usable.
some of their stuff goes used for around 100$ which i would call relatively affordable
@@heythatsprettynoice65 I agree, I would just check Reverb for used deals. There isn't much difference between 99 dollars and 115-130 dollars, as long as you're okay with used stuff. I just got a Hoof for 110, a Talons for 85 and a Dispatch Master for 100.
which mode disables TH-cam compression
The one where you plug it I to your rig and it sounds completely different.
It won't get rid of the compression, but watching at 720 will make the audio sound a lot more clear and dynamic.
Awesome pedal for 100$ check one out at your local music store.

you should watch this one! th-cam.com/video/K0aSAa2d1Nc/w-d-xo.html
Lowkey this is one the best pedal review I've seen on youtube. Will buy the earthquaker asap!
You will not regret, seriously it was instantly decided that it was a main stay on my board.
As for the Afterneath Cory has a real talent to make the creative aspects shine over the technical aspects
I bought this pedal this week. One of the really useful features that you didn't mention is the flexi switch. Momentary and latch switch in one. Very good switch, very useful, especially when using the pedal as boost (mode 2).

That sounds about exactly what im looking for. I need an always on boost, clean up the tone a little but also drive my fuzz giving more of a bite
These were the confirming comments to prove it's got what I want. Thank you folks.

NOICE. How would you pair this with a Westwood..? I put it after it, and on Mode 3 it turns in to a pretty awesome 2nd gain stage

yes
@@EarthQuakerDevices Thank you for the reply!
I like the look and sound of this pedal.
Not sure about blue LED on it, but everything else, very nice. :)
Hope you grab one!
Notice what is said about the input/output buffers.I'm not an expert, but those are the options,- boost the signal, or change the impedance; the latter greatly changes the signal content.
Combine with the Bellows, and hell. is. a. popping.
Much better option than an 808 type.
Sounds great, guys.

Bought one a few days ago. Great pedal but mine has an yellowish orange on/off LED and most of the ones I've seen online seem to be bright white. Was the LED on/off indicator color changed or do I have a bum pedal?
the LED has been changed to yellow. You have a real deal plumes! thanks for your support
@@EarthQuakerDevices Awesome, thanks! Love the pedal!
This pedal beats any other tube screamer I have, It sounds like a clearer Proco Rat imo.

Great pedal though.
Do you recommend this pedal or Dunes to push an almost breaking up JTM45?
either will accomplish that task, although each pedal has a different voice. Start with plumes and go from there...
My Plumes that I bought yesterday has a yellow light, not a white one. Does this make it any different to earlier models or is it purely cosmetic?
the LED now has a yellow capsule, but it is the exact same sounding pedal.

Not blaming fender guitars for being dark, just thought there might be more of a well rounded demo with maybe a couple Gibsons. Keep rocking! - B
Brandon Clark fender guitars are usually bright?
I need this.
Settings at 2:03?
Is it just me, or does it sound too muddy? Or is it just TH-cam?
I wouldn't say it's just you I mean, maybe one or two other people have said that also. Maybe you guys all have the same 1.3mm speakers or something. dunno. Thanks for watching, have a great day!
Sounds as though there is too much bass making the amp flabby. Not good for a band context. I like the new take on the circuit though - let's see what other demos bring us.
Hey,its youtube..go try one before asking questions.
EarthQuakerDevices coming in hot with the sarcasm
They should put a tube screamer in front of it to make it less muddy. Always heard good things of this pedal, I might get one soon. But parts of this video definitely sound muddy. Focal speakers user.
Yea, i like mode 3.
I love this pedal on a lot of other videos I've seen, but it sounds rough in this one. It's so muffled and muddy sounding, like the tone is turned all the way down. Very dark, and not in a good way.
maybe a gremlin got in the mic or something
@Nilly Sigger funny as I really disliked Andy's demo of this pedal but liked many other of his demos. Much prefered these sounds but hey this was into a SUPROOOOOHHOOOO :D 15" by the sound of it!
Thats a characteristic of supro amps moreso then the pedal
i love it, but im gonna call it the p-lum-es, and it will be my p-lum-es
someone send this to john reis, quick!
Wish you didn't gloss over the fact that this was only internal for like 5 seconds before I bought one, now its about to get here and I don't have a DC adapter.
What does "+/- 9v" mean?
center negative power supply requirments
The Mt Rushmore of guitar pedal makers are Mike Mathews Michael Fuller Jim Dunlop period and end of story
wow!
@EarthQuakerDevices nothing against you but look at their accomplishments unbeatable..I'm actually looking at a few of your overdrive pedals..
Yeah man, totally backend top notched with 360 refinished control and sound wall peaked through punchy pinches and uncompressed range runs...
Totally.
I just got mine in and. Turbo tube screamer I have blows the plumes out of the water for stacking with heavy distortion.
We made a tube screamer.. Check this out...

that was a lot of effort. I think you won this one.
2:40 minutes: "the Plumes runs at plus or minus 9 volts internally." Not only is that not a thing, but why would it increase headroom? Something's odd about that statement. It's like he looked at the polarity symbol and created a feature. Pedal is still cool, however.
Best part is the price
But what about the voices in my head ?
Mode one 'compressed? Sounds just like the clean signal for heavens sake
Nice when the demo uses my amp
thought i saw nolly in the thumbnail so here i am..
