    Dude! Stop with the "If you don't like it" insecurities! You're brilliant, man. Every minute of this video was enjoyable and you just helped me decide on a gear list when income tax return comes in. This is exactly the kind of playing around with sound that I absolutely love. Subscribed.

    Thanks for focusing on bass synth! It's surprisingly hard to find on TH-cam. Most synth + pedal demos use time-based effects with lead and pad patches. Some synth + pedal demos never even touch lower octave keys! I appreciate you!

    That's exactly right. When you turn on a Big Muff you hear all kinds of noise. Humming, moaning, screaming.

      My "Bass" Big Muff is pretty damn quiet.
      Although I noticed in the video The Muff had the volume & fuzz knob at max, so that's probably why it was so noisey

    Earthquaker Devices make some great kit, but they might offer keyboardists more if they had stereo inputs & outputs. The digitech gear that you sell such as nautila (chorus / flanger), obscura (great for simulating tape wobble) & polara stereo reverb might be a good start for another video as they are stereo pedals. Earthquaker's afterneath is still on my wishlist in spite of being mono.

    ive searched and watched many videos of people using guitar pedals on keyboards but haven't seen this one, probably due to it being more of a synth than a regular keyboard. but very nice. I only have 2 pedals at the moment, a rainbow machine and a regular delay. I've recreated a few interesting effects.

    Generally you can’t go wrong with Chorus, Phasers and Flangers set a long sweep time and enjoy; it’s a kind of classic combo. If you want a slightly more modern sound I would whole heartedly recommend an Eventide H9.

  • @gorillabraudcast474
    @gorillabraudcast474 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've got to get some pedals! I use "vintage " samplers like eps and sp1200 and have been wanting to add some type of effects to the equation. My whole thing is only using hardware gear and these old machines didn't have anything for effects beyond analog filters for the most part. Ensoniq had some nice ones but I use multiple machines for different samples that make up the track. It will be cool having pedals inline and be able to quickly trigger efx for individual samples on the fly.

  • @alexandergerth1223

    Is it possible to connect guitar pedals with digital pianos, but without using an amp and external monitors? I would like to you use my headphones or the internal speakers instead. But don't know if this works since I would need to loop the signal through the pedal and than back into the keyboard.

      A bit late here and you've probably already figured it out, but you will likely need an interface, mixer, or headphone preamp. Take the 1/4" output of your XD into the 1/4" input of the Flashback 2, then feed the pedal out into your interface/mixer/headphone pre. If you have a mixer with FX sends, you could also run it: XD > Mixer > FX Send > Flashback > FX Return

    That was a great selection of pedals to demo except for the Big Muff. I really like both the Keely and the Rainbow Machine. I have a Black Arts Toneworks Pharoah Supreme for my keyboard fuzz needs (I didn't get it for keys initially. I got it for its amazing fuzz tones)because it is dead silent when used with a quiet power supply. Most old school fuzz/dist are pretty noisy but it doesn't matter as much for guitar. I wouldn't use the Big Muff due to the noise and that noise will carry through the rest of the signal chain. A noise gate can't stop that while you are playing delicate passages. I wonder what an ARP Odyssey with the white/pink noise generator with the resonance and ring modulator would sound like through the 2 earthquaker pedals.
