If you looked at the chorus sound as a bunch of sine waves, the lag would be shifting the waves out of unity just enough to create a vibrato/echo effect in addition to thickening the sound... well, that would be my best explanation, lol.
Actually, I'm not a huge fan of top jacks. It causes crowding with power cable and some patch cables won't work because they hit the power cable. Worst however is power jack on side next to side jack.
I think it's inspired after The Beatles' song, because of the art, by the way, I enjoy it, because it's figurative for 'ocean child' verse in the song 'Julia', and also, 'the Walrus was Paul'. Nice demo, I really enjoy your playing and thorough testing!
Kosmo Music you just blew my mind with that. I wonder if there are any more Beatle references in their stuff. Fathom has a submarine on the pedal and I think it's supposed to be looking for Julia.
It’s actually named after a mysterious sound known as “Julia” recorded beneath the ocean’s surface in 1999. Due to it being unexplained there’s a lot of sea monster imagery associated with it. Not to say the scientists didn’t get the name from the Beatles though.
3:40 'I don't know why anyone would want to turn it all the way down." Turning it all the way down on this pedal turns it into a tremolo as a secret setting
dude i got a Supro chorus that im returning because of the hard click. and its really loud. plus the toggle switch sounds like a Galaga explosion whenever you switch to vibrato. The dude at Supro of course said wrll thats just because its analog. Ok well, i saw a Luna edition Kulia with a spaceman standing on his ship as the art. so im gonna go for it. Kulia....haha. Sorry Julia
The knobs and switch are also placed farther apart from each other. No more having your foot hitting a knob instead of the switch in the middle of a gig. Subtle change.
Though the new features are cool and I really wish all my pedals were too Jack's. I already have a v1 though and I dont think the new features justify buying the v1. With a v2 out the used price for the v1 will drop and it's just not worth the extra money. If they added tap tempo to set the rate and allowed a second rate on top of the first to get some really whacky tones I'd definitely buy it.
It shouldnt matter with the inputs, but it kinda does. Its a shame too. I wish it didnt matter and pedals could be more original but come on. its a pain in the ass to switch pedals out on the board to try new stuff when you got something like a zvex just being a rebel for no reason. Zvex makes amazing pedals though. instant Lofi Junkie ended up being on my board instead of the julia (and its the old horizontal pedalboard breaking oreintation one too, it taught me why top inputs matter), but this pedal still intrigues me a bunch.
#topjackstickler having your pedals right next to each other takes a pedalboard from neat to immaculate, it's so nice to have
Fab video, no extra effects or confusion (I'm easily confused) ... on the hunt for a chorus/reverb pedal so a big cheers to an ace review
I absolutely love this pedal, it’s the only chorus I’ve used that sounded killer on a bass. It’ll keep the low end even with a 5 string and two drives
Type O Negative kinda tones at the end, nice
Or Manson.
Dammit i wish you didnt say this because now im gonna have to buy it

I knew this was coming when the Julia v1 went on sale.
Nice job! Thanks for mentioning the momentary function!
Such a nice sounding pedal!

I agree!
#topjackstickler I'm done having to bend patches in weird angles to accommodate for side-mounted jacks. Ree.
This guy is made for product reviews,THANKS
artwork on v1 was miles better. i’ll be getting a v1 considering my zvex lofi junky was completely bunk
No way
Thank you, Woody Harrelson.
Would love to see the Polychrome compared to the Julia, since chorus and flanger are in such similar territory!

zero no shoten thought that was called “bloop” haha
beautiful my friend. i love that

'I don't know why anyone would want to turn it all the way down."
Turning it all the way down on this pedal turns it into a tremolo as a secret setting
That's what I was wondering (and thought might happen)
That's beautiful 🥰
They should pay you a commission. I just bought this from AMS after this demo.
That's a "Classic Creep", if I recall correctly.
Why is the art work on the first version so terrifying?
Lag sounds like it lets you control the amount of pitch offset between the two voices of the chorus effect.
Top jacks are a nice. But what I really dislike is side power jacks.
The switching noise almost destroyed my speakers.. really brutal 🤟🏼 awesome pedal, is this version better? Who knows..
I like this dude
Dual Julia ... or is it dueling Julias ? Super funky.
@ without top jacks the chances of me buying a pedal goes down 90% - sorry Keeley
and JHS
#topjackstickler #softswitchstepper
Turn that lag to the right and that white noise from hell comes out

What is that guitar? Something cool about those shapes and cool colors with a gold pick guard
What guitar is that . ? It sounds incredible with the chorus.
What kind of fuzz/distortion is he using at the end?
Is their a major difference from the original I’m considering buying one but not sure to get v1 or v2??
AStepUpForSquare from my understanding the only difference with the V2 is the top jacks, graphic on the front, and the soft switch
The artwork of v1 in my opinion it's better if this help you

How does this compare to Keeley Seafoam Plus or Dyno My Roto?
Julia kind of looks like Vigo the Carpathian
#topjack for life
What kind of guitar is that?
puresalem guitars classic creep since no one can understand anything the guys saying about it.
@@blastedfrets1382 thank you! He says it so fast.

I love my V1
What model is that guitar? 🔥🔥❤️
I can't make sense of this lag control. Feels like a delay of some kind?
2:06 looks like there's a quite a big bump on volume level with the pedal on...I'm I right?
Sounds like it's hitting the mic freqs he's got set-up, gives the impression that it's cutting/louder
Such a sweet sounding pedal, but too much money for cheapskates like me. I think it’s time for a “cheapest choruses on amazon” comparison.
What was the dirt used in that dual Julia jam? Sounded great for chugging \m/
walrus contraband fuzz

Top Jacks are best.

pierced alien creep?
#topjackstickler !!!
Spaceship guitar
#topjackjack
So other than artwork, momentary switch, and top Jack's, it's still the same, audio-wise?
Monarch99 99 I think so. They really needed give much of a reason for people who already have the v1 to switch in my opinion
The knobs and switch have also been slightly repositioned.
Too much time spent here on the extreme vibrato sounds, but nice pedal. May get one. Thanks
That stereo fuzz tone sounds fat as fuck! You should def record/perform with that sound.

Darn it Mr. Hum, why don’t you do such and such, or this and that. You’re videos make me puke. Just kidding, I really enjoy your videos.
#jackedontopjacks
Top Jack's is proper
never mind the pedal, what is that guitar? Actually listening to this pedal I'm hearing the strange sick things that the Boss VB-2 Vibrato used to do
Still does to this day with the new waza version!
Literally paid the extra money for the V2 because it had top jacks.

The new art is bad, but the new features are good. Wagowagomowazow
I kinda like the new art:(
Me too
I dont think its bad, but I am very happy with my V1. I dont think you could go wrong with either!
The art work is complete trash
Alex Jones thanks
I love it
Looks cool
walrusaudioeffects lmao 😂 best response
I like both of the art work, but I am very happy with my v1. I would probably get the V2 if I didn't have the V1 already though
