Wow the hands got a whole dude attached to 'em.
With majestic elven hair
😆
This comment made my 3am
He's like, reverse Bob Ross... And it's kinda beautiful that his name is Russ... Yeah, we're all into happy accidents...
@@emilyharpist😂
this is skrillex's older brother who is cool and composed
🤣🤣🤣
I cannot unsee this now.
Chillex
Omg this just made my life
lol with his hair and the way he sometimes looked a bit lost he reminded me of Garth from Wayne’s World when he gets nervous
This guy's a natural -- he can do hand stuff *and* mouth stuff
He's a ladys man. Just ask Emily
That melody played during the Caroline somersault- God tier I’m in heaven dreaming to those jazzy chords
You are such a gentle human being. It’s wonderful how you articulate things.
This is one the best pedal reviews I’ve seen. Love the vibe! I own the CooperEFX Arcades and it’s such a fun pedal. The Gen Loss card is incredible. Keep up the great content!
Thanks so much!!! I actually have an arcades and the Gen Loss card, Russ was kicking himself afterwords for forgetting to include it 😂 im trying to get him to do more of these on this channel!
Nice to meet the other half of your awesome team! Great video as always. Been thinking about a somersault for a while....
Somersault is definitely good all-around versatile chorus/lofi pedal. Definitely recommend. Also, it's nice to hold in your hand ( 03:48 )
I could listen to this loop all day! Beautiful sounds and really insightful explanations Russ, absolutely killin' it :D
Thanks Megan!!! Russ is definitely gonna be making more speaking appearances soon!! We're so glad you liked this, I was super busy with gigs last week and gave him free reign to make whatever video he wanted on the channel 😆
I enjoyed the more technical look at these fine fidelity munchers and seeing your preferred ones after all the wonderful demos. Hope to see you (and your hands) again soon, Russ.
So glad you enjoyed!!! More Russ coming soon!
Thank You! Just the video I needed to see AND hear!
I will now be getting the Somersault! Great job!
Love this video. It has been a real education in these lofi pedals that I sorely needed. Thanks!
Thanks Russ, really enjoyed the video in this format.
The man behind the hands
Crushed it Russ!
He says thanks!!!!
Great video! Love the overview and had some pedals I hadnt heard of yet. ❤
This video is as relaxing as listening to lo-fi. Awesome video
thank you so much, Allan!! :) ♡
his geek outs are awesome, thanks for the demos!
I love this channel. Hope the gig went well. My resolution was to save more $$ and not buy any gear this year but yeah...that's not going so well. Great reviews, thank you!
Thanks so much for being here, Nick!! It’s so hard not to buy gear when that GAS sets in hahahah I know the feeling too well!!!
01:56 and I already feel that I'm going to learn so much from this channel. Thanks so much to you both for sharing this amazing collaboration with us. I'm so hungry for some cool pedals now, I had a Jim Dunlop crybaby back in in the day but I sold it to buy... stuff. Time to rewind/re-cue. Thanks again.
This video is just what I needed!👌 Thanks 😊
This video has a serious Tim & Eric vibe and I love it.
This is what I've been looking for. These pedals are amazing. Thank you for sharing.🙂
You both have an authentic enthusiasm and delight in music that has inspired me to pick up my guitars and start playing again + eBow and pedals!
thank you so much!! that means so much to us!! 🥺❤️ I want to try an eBow soon
@@emilyharpist You do? Be prepared for exploring a sonic world that sustains goodness for ever and ever ….. there is nothing else quite like the eBow!
As a guitarist I've never heard these pedals on a harp and it's the coolest thing... gives me an instant feeling of listening on a gramophone even though vinyl and cassette is as old as I go 😄
Hahah welcome to my channel & community!! ❤️🥰 you can hear most pedals through harp on my channel!!! I totally can see that gramophone vibe you’re talking about!!!
Gives me a feeling of listening to your grandma!
Thank you for putting this video it was super helpful
i've just discovered that the hands belongs to the Bob Ross(Russ) of pedals industry.
Hahah as Russ turns a knob and the pedal goes out of control - "There's such thing as mistakes, just happy accidents"
Totally agree. Wish he has a fro tho
This channel is reaching levels of adorableness previously unknown to science
😊
This guy makes me so happy
This was a good time.
I think the Fairfield was my favorite.
Shallow Water is so amazing. I actually just got another Fairfield pedal I'll be making a demo with soon!!
Great video, great Legolas hairstyle
Russ your awesome! Can you be my new therapist? Definitely want more tag team Emily and Russ videos!!!
He said it depends on how severe your problems are. Also yes!! Noted, we would love to do more tag team vids!
You can tell Russ would be cool to hang out with..."it's a good time"😜love the hair
Very cool, thank you!
Today I learned there are 2000$ effects pedals that make you sound like back when you could buy a house for 2000$.
Russ sounds like a therapist. I hope he's a happy dude.
I really like the sounds and playing, especially with the first two pedals. Do y'all have music like this?
Awesome review
This music brings tears to my eyes man. Great job emily. And russ for the pedalwork too!
Amazing video... Love the Wardenclyffe... Unfortunately they don't make it with the old chassis (the same in the video).... only with the v2 chassis...
Thanks!! I actually didn’t really like the V1 chassis personally! It was so big and clunky!!!
Thank you so much! And which pedal would you use to make lofi voice?
Good stuff, Russ!
Thanks! - Russ
Fairfield shallow water is my favorite modulation pedal of all time.
Hmm very interesting. I think I liked the first 3 pedals the most. If i were to buy one though itd deffo be a hard choice between the first and the second one. Also Russ is so confident when hes talking but then so awkward afterwards in a cute kind of way its honestly hilarious. Both of you should definitely do more stuff together haha ^-^
hahah thank you so much!! and YES i love doing videos with Russ! he's going to be in more of them coming soon (because i'm making him do it LOL) 😂♡ thank you for being here!! :3
Thank you for being so interactive with your audience. It feels like thats a dwindling thing to see on TH-cam these days. I found your videos cuz of the nepenthes and the harp but i really like your content. Glad to be here cant wait to see more ^-^
An other cool pedal in the same genre is the Deluxe Pitch Pirate.
Great reference video, thanks for making it!
Russ clearly knows his gear! Would love to hear some his musical background and maybe even some play!
I'll try to get him to open up about his background on camera! Haha. He's in a band/group with a single and record coming out soon enough - I play on most of the songs on the album! I'll definitely be posting about it when it's out. Mastering is starting next week!
"Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It's the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart.
The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it.
The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them."
- Brian Eno, A Year With Swollen Appendices
I do miss mans mane. It was pure power ❤️🔥
I tried the gen loss v2 but it didn’t feel quite right despite having all the features I wanted. This video helped a lot to see some other options. Think I’ll look more into the hungry robot. Appreciate you
I appreciate YOU! yeah the Gen loss isn’t for everyone! I still have the Wardenclyffe demo unreleased but it’s definitely a fun pedal
@@emilyharpist hope we can see it one day!
@@lMlusashi soon!!! Hopefully I have room to get it out in sept
@@emilyharpist I got the Wardenclyffe Deluxe a few days ago and I love it. Feels much more sweet than the generation loss v2 to me, although I do miss having separate knobs for the low pass and high pass filters. Thank you for introducing me to something I’ll probably have in my board for a long time.
For affordable Lo-fi textures: the solidgoldfx nu-33 is pretty good
dammit now I have to buy them all, oh well
Hahaha RIP wallet
@@emilyharpist exactly, my brain just goes
>see pedal
>hear pedal
>need pedal
it's a curse
@@bonnibloop_ Believe me, I know the struggle
I love that your hair is short, Emily, and Russ’s hair is so much longer than yours. Just like me and my boyfriend (except his is only around shoulder length lol)
hahah it used to be the other way around when we first started dating!! 😂❤️ I used to have long blonde hair, and he had short brown hair. I guess we were made for each other hahahah
How does the tracking compare on these pedals? I have the wardenclyffe and there is a bit of delay when playing with only the wet signal, unfortunately.
I just like holding it. Lol I feel you.
Oh man you have the same laugh as Emily!
Hahaha oh man he does!!
I need that photo with pedals from the preview screen!
Fantastic intro xD
My favorite F/X Pedal that can produce many of the sounds on this video is the EHX Oceans 11 for about $175.00 !!
Sweet baby Jesus... Pedal magic aside, all Russ is missing is a mighty afro with a canvas and some liquid clear mixed with phtalo blue... Yeah... There's no such thing as bad sounds, just happy little accidents... Oh yes, my comment is not consistent, but that's ok, we're a lot into happy accidents...
So cool 🔥👌
When you laughed at yourself for saying its so well built, i said to myself he just likes holdin it in his hands. I was right lol. Also, love your smile. It was half the enjoyment for me.
Hahaha thanks so much!! (This is Russ) - I’ve been wanting to do a follow-up for a while! I definitely should soon cause we got like 5 more lo fi pedals and I love a lot of them more than some of these
Good lord the Gen Loss is expensive!
But man that would be perfect for a winter LoFi beat.
I KNOW!! It’s so expensive but within the next year, Chase Bliss audio should be coming out with a way more affordable version (because there won’t be limited supply)
@@emilyharpist Man I really hope so. I need this, but Im a broke student haha. Bad combination
Frozen Emily cracked me up.
Any suggestions for a vocal lofi effect?
You seem like an incredibly caring person.
❤️ 😊 he is!
como se llama la cancion cuando usas el pedal somersault?
Where would u place a lofi effect on a pedal board?
What about my Chase Bliss El capistan from strymon.
I don't know if it's mine... but with the Wardenclyffe V1 i hear an hiss sound that become stronger increasing wet knob or increasing wiith HP frequency.... Did you notice something like that? Your seems to be very quiet!
I didn’t notice that with mine!! It may be an individual unit thing, I would definitely reach out to them! With these kind of units there’s definitely a slight noise floor hiss, but usually it’s manageable and not crazy noticeable. It makes sense that it would increase with the HP on, if it’s not coming from your guitar then I’m sure their support could help you out! I actually don’t have mine anymore, I traded it with a friend for another pedal
I see that most of these pedals are not stereo. Naturally, being mono, is the natural state of lofi.
Are there any stereo options in the market? El Capistan's wrinkled tape the only possibility? Thanks for the great interview
Check out the new Chase Bliss Generation Loss Mk-2. They’ve added stereo as well as some other fun features :)
Damn my generation loss is going for 2gs.. I knew there was something special about that thing when I heard it...
I can’t believe the prices!!
If you like Somersault, I can recommend Kilobyte and Icarus. They’re both awesome pedals!
Kilobyte is definitely on my list!!! Gotta look into the Icarus too. I'm so excited to try more from Caroline Gtr Co!!!
Love this
My wallet after watching this : "why are we still here? Just to suffer?"
My kidney : having a heart attack
Hahahha
with a Moby modulation
Love ya buddy
💟dave 💟
@@emilyharpist if only the people knew the ancient Russ gold I have...
@@DaveXXX “pass ME the ball” There was a time in my life where I watched the Mute on repeat
@@emilyharpist oh god lmao
The sample song is Jerry Paper- chameleon world lol
Oh goddamn why does the generation loss have to be sound so good and be so expensive....
Can you find these as vsts?
No, hardware only!
that T-120 is floating in the guy's hand...
When Russ turned the Somersault around in his hand I literally thought I saw him open it up like a book.
I don't know if Emily's talking style affects Russ talking style or if it's the otherway around
😂❤️
This is like a Portlandia skit
if someone could tell me the chord progression in the vid, i'd love you forever (i'm a noob lmao). thxx
this guy
that guy
Probably a stupid question - but, how do you amplify a harp, and direct the sound through an effects pedal? Is it just a microphone, or are there pickups/piezos etc like on a guitar?
Not a stupid question!! I have a video on my channel that explains this :) th-cam.com/video/Y5253VL9MXk/w-d-xo.html
the hungry robot one i need
beware of very disconcerting delay issues. Had to return mine
@@do_happywork oh damn, what lo-fi pedals do u have?
I adore my Fairfield Circuits Shallow Water. Lofi Junkie is always a go to.
Did you find latency on wardenclyffe?
No, we didn’t!! Not that I can remember.
Where Can i find/get this chord progression
The chord progression was improvised!! I’m not sure exactly what it was, I’m sorry!!
Emily Hopkins oh Ok. Just wanted to ask. Nice improvisation👍😁
You guys should try the Woozy
I would never buy or use any of these but was very entertained
Theyre definitely not for everyone!!! I can respect that for sure. Thanks so much for being here ❤️
Russ’ hair isn’t Lo-fi
Hi-fi hair for sure
Next step Russ plays Harp and Emily changes the settings on the pedals
first one was best
It’s my favorite too!!

😆😂
😂 😂 😂 oh man don't even GET Russ started on that!!
@@emilyharpist I'd honestly love to hear both of your thoughts on this tbh
Can't hold plugins in your hand 😍
Can I get a updated best lowfi pedals
YES! We are working on it later this fall!
@@emilyharpist the Wardenclyffe Deluxe and m1 look 👀 pretty good but I’m new to pedals I checked out the swan you like, but I think it works better for a harpist than a hip-hop based producer
@@SonicVibe Yes! I have one coming soon that might be pretty good for producers though!
@@emilyharpist I’ll keep an eye 👁️ out for the video
Russe
Thank
After watching oblivion NPC videos, the music threw me off and I had to double check this wasn’t one of those…
HAHAHAH
Ross u mush “RECOMMIZE MY HANDS”
Oh really?
From the picknick?
I brought THE sandwixh
Thank
I want a woman who looks at me like this dude looks at his Gen Loss pedal...
😂
hotone krush is a good lofi pedal for only about $100
I’ve never heard of that one!!
