I love that Dan said "...these reverbs go one step beyond", and without missing a beat, Mick hums the first few notes of the Madness classic! These moments are so ephemeral, yet so fun.
Yup. Sounds about right. But I visualize myself constantly using it and having so much fun. Edit: I bought it and use it all the time. You can use a lot of reverb, which I really would never normally use, but you can play with it because the gift of this pedal besides the ridiculous hi-fi tones, is that doesn’t get in the way of your playing. Also, if you record anything besides guitar, this is the pedal you want for vocals, drums or synths. My favorite are the effect on vocals and drums. It completely transforms vocals but also drum sounds as well.
i cannot stress enough the huge smile that swept my face when listening to yall in the intro. please continue to do more of this! love your synergy and energy. also i will say that les paul tone melted my face off on the first notes. simply brilliant !
Spot on about these sorts of reverbs being transformative instruments in and of themselves. When I was trracking our first ep with my group we were lacking a synth/piano player at the time. I grabbed a big sky, no instructions, found a texture I like, cranked extreme setting and had a go. Ended up with what sounded more like a synth and orchestra than anything guitar related. You really just have to let go and let them do their thing. I sat with the guitar on my lap for most of it with a glass slide. Once you break out of that headspace the possibilities are endless and this isn't even for ambient music necessarily but just sonic soundscapes you could not achieve otherwise
Very good chemistry between the two of you. Always a good listen and a watch. You both give each other plenty of space to talk AND listen. More please!
Loved seeing Mick play the gold top LP. The sound suits him and he always sounds good playing them. And on topic, I can't live without reverb. It and a boost are the only effects I can't live without.
I've never gone to Andertons faster. In four years of weekly obsessive watching and rewatching of your shows, learning as I go, I didn't even wait til half way. You were about a minute into the Nightsky, Dan, and programming that infinite loop with arpeggio. Honestly never pressed the big red danger button as quickly. Unchuffing believable. Massive respect to Strymon - I've been playing with programmable effects in DAW for years but it's never felt right. The way you both responded to the output coming from that thing was enough - that's what I've been missing. Awesome. Truly awesome. 🙌🏻 for TPS as always. Yas!
@@jamiebarr9810 Yum! Maybe your comment just spawned a new genre of music with people singing about 🥓 bacon 🥓 with ping pong delays and thick reverb. If they brought in a B3 organ it would be Hammond Bacon!
I echo (appropriately) everyone saying you should play with 2 guitars together more. Not only are the jams wonderful, but it really demonstrates the points you make about sitting in a mix, or having a part with an effect for texture, or comparing frequencies. More, please!
Terrific show. That plate reverb tone you were getting out of the Chase Bliss at 44:35-ish was insane. And then Mick going full "inspiration machine" with it at 49:00... so fun to watch. Cheers guys. Stay safe. Play lots.
Its great to see how far you guys have come,and its been great fun watching the show's progress over the years. I hope to show never ends though, because then ill have to start learning how things work myself...!!
Just wanted to say I love you guys and your show. It's hard to explain the "simple" stuff while getting some depth and making it entertaining and interesting. Thanks for doing it
What fantastic playing in the intro! Brilliant reverbs with space for days! Top video as always fellas. Stereo into headphones is insane! “It’s going straight to the poolroom” - most aspiring guitarists dreaming of the tomatoverb
Omg, the end of show jam. Made me smile and also so beautiful, teary. And... You two have such nice personality styles and a supreme interaction style. My GF will watch just bc she finds you two so endearing. That's a win! TX, you two, as always.
Check out Pauline Oliveros and Stuart Dempster for their recordings in the Dan Harpole Cistern Chapel, a 2 mil gallon underground cistern that has 45-sec reverb time.
I get so much inspiration from your videos that help me with creativity. I actually purchased a Roland Jazz chorus and a strymon nightsky because of your videos. Thanks so much. Great show you guys!
Yet again I'm late to an episode but THIS has to be one of the most musical, mind-boggling, fabulously stimulating, informative and inspiring shows you guys have ever put out. I may never be able to afford the necessary 'dinero' for any of these but man alive am I going to be experimenting with all those pedals I do have. Thank you Dan & Mick, love all that you do for opening my mind and ears (despite the hearing aids...).
Oddly enough, I was chatting with a buddy of mine that I needed a reverb pedal as the delay I was using to get "close" wasn't quite what I wanted. Way more than what I would use normally.... normally. I think I just want to have the Blackhole so I can say that I turned off the gravity.
Such an epic intro ! I should have known I would love the tones from the great playing and ridiculous reverbs. At this point, I’m going to want so many reverb and delay pedals, my pedalboard will sound like I’ve launched a space shuttle into the next galaxy.
That intro was beautiful. 1:04 was peak Mick - what a beautiful lick!! Gotta admit, I get lost in your episodes discussing the ever-more-subtle differences between gain pedals but I loved this show. More like this please! Flange sounds, Phaser sounds, Slicer sounds, Tremelo sounds. I realise you may say it's out of your comfort zone, but that makes it even better - take us on a voyage of discovery!
Fantastic show! One of my favourites so far. You guys must play together more often. The pedals were inspiring but not nearly as much as seeing you both create and get lost in soundscapes together. Loved it!!!
Since I started watching TPS just a little over a month ago. I haven’t stopped binging since. I’ve learnt so much from you guys. Thanks Dan & Mick! Btw, that lick Dan played at 11:06 really reminds me of Mission Impossible II 🤤
I want a sign language interpreter on the show!!! So i don't have to listen and feed my 🤟🤟🤟 *REVERB GAS* 🤟🤟🤟 Thank god i can't afford one right now because i'm getting the real deal, a tube reverb 😁 Thank you boiz for some relaxing time. Stay safe and healthy.
36:33 "I have used this by the way, I just didn't know what it did...I turned it on and it sounded amazing so I didn't change anything!" Never change Mick!
Never will! Hahahaha!!! If you want to hear what I was talking about listen to the track and guitar on Dan’s recent G3 main video. That was this, and me not changing anything. Ha! In the kind of chordy bits. It’s ALL this Les Paul. Amazeballs!
That 'hall' algorithm on the CXM is possibly (probably) the best hall-type reverb I have ever heard. I am lucky enough to own some amazing reverb pedals and an Axe FX III. The best reverbs I have used, up to now, have been from plugins. This pedal looks very well thought-out with a perfect feauture set IMO. My £50 Valhalla Room plugin will probably get me close enough for the sake of an £850 saving, but this is the best reverb I have heard in a pedal. Wow.
Woaaah! I've thought for some time that the AKG BX 20 was one of the most epic studio reverb units I've ever heard, even the UA plugin version is huge, but that CXM 1978 is beyond next level. Thanks for another great show 👍
When I got The Eventide Space it sounded like I was in a huge cinematic production like Star Wars, Kuebrick, or Spielberg movies. The stereo field was swallowed by the black hole for sure. Unbelievable but I decided to ditch it for the Big Sky which is a great multi purpose studio reverb too. The Night Sky is wild but it will not replace your main reverb.
"Sit there and feel smug. Don't write nasty comments." Some of the best advice ever.
Truth
I don't feel smug or over-knowledge but I do value the right to speak freely even if it annoys someone.
To quote the hard times, "$1000 Reverb Pedal Models Tone After Big, Empty Rooms Your Band Always Plays"
Oh that’s good.
Yeah, then you take that sound and put it on a record and suddenly people want to hear it.
Where are you playing? I’m not having that issue.
I love that Dan said "...these reverbs go one step beyond", and without missing a beat, Mick hums the first few notes of the Madness classic! These moments are so ephemeral, yet so fun.
Dan and Mick PLS, PLS PLAY TOGETHER MORE OFTEN IN THE VIDEOS!
Yeah! I didn’t realise how rarely they play together until this video. More please!
Yes - that intro jam was awesome
Exactly, those jams are so creative and beautifull.
YES
Totally agree. I love seeing/hearing them jam. Gives the pedals and effects a real context too 🙂
Do I already have a reverb pedal: yes
Do I have money for these: no
Would I ever really use that much reverb: no
Do I want one: yes yea yes
This was my exact thought process for buying an Alexander jubilee silver overdrive recently. Zero regrets.
Yup. Sounds about right. But I visualize myself constantly using it and having so much fun.
Edit: I bought it and use it all the time. You can use a lot of reverb, which I really would never normally use, but you can play with it because the gift of this pedal besides the ridiculous hi-fi tones, is that doesn’t get in the way of your playing. Also, if you record anything besides guitar, this is the pedal you want for vocals, drums or synths. My favorite are the effect on vocals and drums. It completely transforms vocals but also drum sounds as well.
I credit you both to helping me get through this Covid thing! I don’t think you guys know how important you are to many of us. God bless ❤️🙏
And you Jose. Thank you for being with us. Our best!
I'm blown away by that intro. This was FREAKING AWESOME!
Blimey, thank you!
Intro playing today was glorious
Thank you!
Everyday that TPS uploads a video is a GREAT day!
Thank you!
Lead us thru the darkness 🙏🙏🙏
I love it when you two play together it's so touching and atmospheric, you can really read each others playing it's brilliant!
FREAKING FINALLY you guys start a show playing TOGETHER!!! That was soo awesome!!!! Fikin' yeah! Ready for this episode!
Mick’s rock ‘n’ roll room-sound was glorious! Could play that all day long.
That intro playing genuinely gave me goose bumps, incredible tones!
Thank you!
Legendary episode! So glad you went beyond your comfort zone for our enjoyment and edification :).
You guys are incredible. Please keep making these demos forever. That ambient jam together was unreal
i cannot stress enough the huge smile that swept my face when listening to yall in the intro. please continue to do more of this! love your synergy and energy. also i will say that les paul tone melted my face off on the first notes. simply brilliant !

It's hilarious how many times I forgot to breathe during that vid. Well done guys, well done indeed.
Very good chemistry between the two of you. Always a good listen and a watch. You both give each other plenty of space to talk AND listen. More please!
Thank you Kick!
I love it when you guys jam and really showcase pedals in proper contexts! I hope to see more of this!!🙌🏻
Love you two and all you do for us! Thank you and God bless!
Pressed the button on the NightSky after many weeks of prevarication. Thanks chaps.
And Dan. The best playing I have heard from you so far. Thanks for the great music guys.
Loved seeing Mick play the gold top LP. The sound suits him and he always sounds good playing them. And on topic, I can't live without reverb. It and a boost are the only effects I can't live without.
Not gonna make the sound engineer “unhappier.” Good laugh at the expense of my sound engineering self, I love it :D
From us to you Jason. THANK YOU. We couldn’t do it without you. :0)
Me: debating on a Nightsky.
Also me: sees the TH-cam notification and clicked on it so fast!
Thank you fellas!

Don’t FEAR the REVERB!!! . . . Reverb is LIKE BACON, a little goes with everything! Sometimes MORE is even better!
And you know what's better than Bacon? More Bacon! And what's better than more bacon? Even more bacon!
@@BenFentem Just imagine putting bacon through a couple of delay pedals - BACON...Bacon....BACON....bacon...Bacon...bacon...
@@jamiebarr9810 it’s have to be a plugged into a Vox so we don’t lose any of that sizzle!
Best analogy ever

Chase Bliss CXM 1978 it can’t get any better than that, wow it certainly is next level. Great demo guys, as always 🎸

So let's see what unnecessary gear I am gonna want to buy today
unnecessary??? these are all necessary pedals :)
@@MarcoZietzling Vital even...
These lads have cost me half a fortune already...
@@johancarlson2774 I Feel you Johan, same here... And the worst thing is I am not even mad...
Stay strong. All you need is fuzz.
the BESTEST ever intro you lads have done. Great work!
Wow! Loved this. Entrancing in a learning room.
Omg, the end of show jam. Made me smile and also so beautiful, teary. And... You two have such nice personality styles and a supreme interaction style. My GF will watch just bc she finds you two so endearing. That's a win! TX, you two, as always.
Oh wow. Thanks Joe!
Yay! 2 people playing guitar at the same time!
Next step, let’s see if we can do it in time! #goals
@@ThatPedalShow Baby steps, shanti shanti.
Jahahah!!!
I can't have been the only one who immediately went: MASSIVE LEGENDE HERE!!!, after that intro :)
Intro with you both playing at the same time is brutal!
Check out Pauline Oliveros and Stuart Dempster for their recordings in the Dan Harpole Cistern Chapel, a 2 mil gallon underground cistern that has 45-sec reverb time.
Can you give us a link?
That opening jam had Lethal Weapon vibes, was expecting the saxomaphone to come roaring in!
Definitely the best intro I’ve heard on the show in a long long time, freakin sweet!
I get so much inspiration from your videos that help me with creativity. I actually purchased a Roland Jazz chorus and a strymon nightsky because of your videos. Thanks so much. Great show you guys!
Oh, boy! This is going to be good. I recently got my Blackhole and I'm still diving into all the awesome sounds you can get out of it
Epic opening :) tasty tones.
i'm so ready for my CXM1978 to come
Good chemistry happening when you guys were playing the night sky 🌌 love it!!
Oh man....that CXM’78 jam at the end!!! You two composed one incredible film score with that one. Absolutely gorgeous!
Yet again I'm late to an episode but THIS has to be one of the most musical, mind-boggling, fabulously stimulating, informative and inspiring shows you guys have ever put out.

Very inspiring episode, indeed. Thank you, Gents!
It's nice to see you guys playing together. More of that, please
FINALLY - you're playing TOGETHER. Sorry if I missed that in the past, but, please do this more.

That intro jam is as good as it gets. Well done lads, well done.
Literally just came to hear the CXM, and I'm not disappointed. Next reverb pedal for sure.
You guys played beautifully. Those reverbs are maddeningly goooooddd!!! I want a cxm 1978 now........
When Mick's LP goes into feedback around the 20:25 mark! Holy moly.
Such an epic intro ! I should have known I would love the tones from the great playing and ridiculous reverbs. At this point, I’m going to want so many reverb and delay pedals, my pedalboard will sound like I’ve launched a space shuttle into the next galaxy.

Thank you David! Yeah this was a lot of fun! Mick here.
Oh god this is basically my dream episode guys
Such a lovely vibe during your introduction: "Blinkin' heck!" indeed :)
Thank you for this guys! This helped me reach a major reverb decision. Because we all know any reverb decision is a major decision. :-)
Who would thumbs down this? Always love watching you guys!! I'd love to see a Pete Cornish segment from you two!!
Playing together! More of this, please.
Fantastic show! One of my favourites so far. You guys must play together more often. The pedals were inspiring but not nearly as much as seeing you both create and get lost in soundscapes together. Loved it!!!
You've created a sound track to a movie about Space Cowboys.
That tele was sounding majestic in parts of that Dan, Fantastic... I love otherworldly...
We had the Nightsky in store recently - what a pedal! So easy to get lost very quickly, definitely takes you places as a player.
This is just wonderful. I would buy an album of this! 😆
Thank goodness both are you are together. It bums me out when one of you can't make it. All the best guys. Cheers!
Since I started watching TPS just a little over a month ago. I haven’t stopped binging since. I’ve learnt so much from you guys. Thanks Dan & Mick!
Btw, that lick Dan played at 11:06 really reminds me of Mission Impossible II 🤤
That CXM is the most 'natural' sounding reverb i've ever heard. Amazing
Us too. Mick here. It’s really crazy good. Hooray!
The opening reverb spacescape was cosmically inspiring.
Thank you Matt!
that's truly the most beautiful gold top LP I've ever seen.
Me too. Apart from a genuine old one. But yeah, that’s what you pay all the cash for! erm, it’s not mine by the way. Sadly.
Another great show. Your playing is fantastic. The intro and outro were both incredible.
Thank you Tim!
Dan, you really have a knack for ambient guitar playing. Super impressed with how you brought best out of the CXM.
Cheers Jordan
Reverb gives me the most GAS by far. I need them all.

What a quality episode! Time to go play with my Source audio ventris...
Great Episode Mates!! Reverb has always been my favorite effect... still goin' strong since 1986! Happy Thanksgiving, be well, stay groovy!!!
holy moly i loved that intro from the both of you!
The streets of Heaven are paved with elite reverb pedals.
Knocked this right out of the park into the next city. Brilliant lads this is right up my street 👏 👍
Fantastic! Was hoping to see the Ventris Dual Reverb on this one! Maybe you'll show it sometime! Love everything y'all do!
They’re all great, but having heard the CXM at NAMM, I can honestly say it’s utterly unbelievable. You two are the absolute best. LOVE YOUUUU!!!
And you Aaron!
Love when you guys both play! 😃 sounds great and gives all the gear a bit of context too. 👌 keep up the good work.
Massive statement from Dan! That room setting with Mick running the Strat through it sounded epic.
Awesome post rock vibes from the black hole
That intro in drop D made me run for my Tele, awesome!
