This pedal sounds like the Tardis landed in Syd Barret's mind in the year 2,090,341! My great, great, great, great, grandchildren are going to love this pedal!
Loved the Pulse Width Modulation setting. It and the low pass filter with resonance were the most fun to me. Hearing the PWM on a guitar was reallly nice. Thanks for sharing the pedal with us.
Once in a while ill look this video and try to understand what is about! That happened too with Alexander Superball, i didnt understand it at all, and now is one of my most favorite pedals
Yes indeed this pedal is so different, and I like how left field it is! It’s kind of like the people behind The Residents made an instrument pedal (?) I was reading in the manual that it can do MIDI commands, interesting!😮😮😮😮
If you wanted to play "Lo Fi" live, that opening warping sound (around 4:00) feels like it would really work for you. Sure, not generally something one would use, but it sure fits that genre. Edit: 6:10 has the full LoFi effect with the "lag" setting cranked -) Us synth guys call that effect at 10:00 a self oscillating filter when you crank up the resonance. At least I think that's what's doing it, together with an automated L/P filter cutoff modulation.
@@stevenwebster4504 dafty? Never heard that word before. But it's not a question of who made it because if you really want to be specific, we should be speaking Old English which no one knows how to read. Or better yet why don't we just speak Latin? It's not a question of who made it, it's a question of who is more culturally popular. And right now, buddy, the United States is the most influential country in the world.
Howdy from Fort Worth, Texas!...Koolest pedal, by far, Mary. Splendid video! Gotta have one of these. Loved the Red FLT sounds and your playing at about 8:00 mark!...
Odd--- it sounds a bit like a cassette deck that has a motor issues, or a turntable or reel to reel that is manually rocking the platter/ reels. It is unique... That one setting that you commented on as being the most musical, actually I can see myself using that one. Thanks for the cool pedal review, Mary.
6:12-6:18 reminded me of "Miranda, That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" by the Mars Volta, just as the guitars start to kick in (so, like, 4 minutes into the song lol)
Great pedal and you can get some real whacky effects from it but as with all pedals like this less is more. I can see it being useful in very small doses.
Gotta try that pedal on groove Fretboard ha I created a new strobe FX as you slide finger over FretCorners. Great vid! I’m doin a vid showing every type of fretboard comparing it to my invention to show contrast.
I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE!!! The octave synth is enough to make me want to save up and get it, such a cool sound. The others would take some work to really figure out how to use (aside from the tremolo, and I have one of those), but that octave synth sounded amazing.
Sequencers from what i can see, really aren't so much what you would take to a gig but play to get a sample off, then you can mash it up in your daw. Unless you hone in a specific setting or on some acid/smack/shrooms/mollys etc
lol @ how she mentioned they spelled "colour" correctly on the pedal, while having that Ernie Ball "The Colors of Rock'N'Roll" poster behind her in the upper right hand corner for much of the video #ShotsFired 😆
The @11:00 - sound is the best... But if you are not going to use that live on stage, what is the point? You can do most of that in post production while having clean music and better control, right? lol
you should try out oscilloscope music! you seem like a sucker for synths :D awesomenessthe little tune at the end sounds similar to the beginning of contra - vampire weekend
We Love your channel. My daughter Anna is a guitarist and a gamer. She heard this video and wants this pedal. She would love to create video game music of her own.
I have been playing for ages, love your channel, have no idea how I got here but I'm glad I did. At 7:54 that sounds like Floyd (Pink) I have never heard of this pedal but I will be looking in Sam Ash and Guitar Center for it to try it out. Cheers!
I bought some strings on REVERB once... Never really went back... But you reminded me to go there again... So... I listed an old Tascam Controller and sold it immediately... You made me 55 bucks today!!! SWEET MONKEYS
I wanna see what Omar Rodriguez-Lopez would come up with while playing with this pedal. Sounds fun, though I'd probably plug in a mono synth instead of a guitar.
As a fellow Brit, I greatly appreciate the spelling. Though I can't picture any of the settings but the octave being useful outside of experimental music...
PWM = pulse width modulation. If I was going to cover a St. Vincent jam -- say, Rattlesnake, for instance -- this would be a good sound to bring to the mix. No computer required.
Imagine if Korn was founded today... And if you want to get to know more about experimental sounds or effects, they're definitely a band to check out (even if their music isn't your thing). The best thing is to dig into their albums (not just like their front page hits or videos) and also live. They have or at least used to have these huge elaborate pedalboards before time of Strymon and so on. They mostly just did it all "raw", getting their hands dirty on the pedal controls. - I'd recommend most anything up until 2005 (you might love 'See You On The Other Side') and they became more effect-driven from say the third album. - I just think they go a bit unappreciated in that sense. :)
Hello Mary. I think that pedal might sound good with a slide. Play a little blues with it. By the way, I enjoyed watching you amongst the other crazy Guitarted guys, cranking the Marshall amp to 10 video. Thanks for taking the time to review guitar gear and share info. Have a wonderful day.🎸👍
Would a collab with Martin Miller and Tom Quale, at that awesome studio that they play, be possible? I would love to hear your voice in a full band performance. And in that band.... imagine the greatness.

I mean I could this being a nightmare, but I find it oddly calming..
Wow, lol
so its a pedal for making indie game music, got it.
I'd say early 80's video Game music.
Yeah but explained with hours of unrelated yapping
3:45 The only musical example that can accurately describe what an awkward conversation feels like.
Loved the Pulse Width Modulation setting. It and the low pass filter with resonance were the most fun to me. Hearing the PWM on a guitar was reallly nice. Thanks for sharing the pedal with us.

Seems like just what's needed for that solo trance gig.
And the best thing is you can turn it off
Absolutely true !!!!
matt bellamy would love this crazy colourful pedal
I'd honestly like to know how it sounds with a Bass
bettter
I’m hoping it works well with my synths
Whats that? You want me to play a Dr Who convention? No problem.
Yes indeed this pedal is so different, and I like how left field it is! It’s kind of like the people behind The Residents made an instrument pedal (?) I was reading in the manual that it can do MIDI commands, interesting!😮😮😮😮
The Alexander Pedals Marshmallow is even more like The Residents.
It sounds like a ton of fun to me. I'm going to get one to run harmonica through it, with a delay pedal too. Thanks for making this video 👍
I might have to get one. So much functionality packed into a single pedal! It's quite impressive.
The mother ship should be arriving any moment now.

We also usually refer to the “lag” as “glide”
“I like how they spelled color correctly”
...*Glares in American English*
*colour
@@stevenwebster4504 no
@@jamesmoses4066 what language is it called. English. How do people in England spell it? Colour. Little dafty.

Also, 11:00 chiptunes intensifies
No they didn't 😁
Yeah they did, British English is the original English, STOP CHANGING OUR WORDS

Howdy from Fort Worth, Texas!...Koolest pedal, by far, Mary. Splendid video! Gotta have one of these. Loved the Red FLT sounds and your playing at about 8:00 mark!...
The part from 7:47 and on had some beautiful Planet Caravan vibes. I loved that effect!
Sounds a lot like my Data Corruptor pedal (Earthquaker Devices.) Will definitely investigate further - thanks for reviewing this "beast" of a pedal!
Your voice sounds so lovely and the accent♡ could listen for days so calming :D great video too, Thnx for the discount link!
Odd--- it sounds a bit like a cassette deck that has a motor issues, or a turntable or reel to reel that is manually rocking the platter/ reels. It is unique...

Reminded me of Stranger Things for a second 👍 cool pedal!
6:12-6:18 reminded me of "Miranda, That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" by the Mars Volta, just as the guitars start to kick in (so, like, 4 minutes into the song lol)
lmaoo so true i was half-expecting the trumpets to come in

I feel like Larry Laonde from Primus would have a field day with this thing, it’s a pretty funky sounding pedal.
The Pulse Width Modulation and Filter are definitely usable...the others..umm hmm...need experimentation and possibly better with other instruments.
Another cool video. I could sit around and listen to you talk for hours. Keep making these videos. Great work,
What kind of a guitar are you playing in this video? Is it a Viger?
I love those little Boss Katana mini's.
I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE!!! The octave synth is enough to make me want to save up and get it, such a cool sound. The others would take some work to really figure out how to use (aside from the tremolo, and I have one of those), but that octave synth sounded amazing.
@Mary Spender -- at 02:12 I have the same lamp like you do !
Most excellent video, thanks Mary Spender!!!
This thing is one of those that simply SHOULD exist. Even if nobody will ever use them.

It sounds like someone called the cops in an NES game.
Cool pedal, and...nice Video!!🤘🤘
I love experimental stuff, so this is a really interesting pedal to me. May have to check it out...
check it out = consider purchasing it lol.
Sitting in a quiet room and some of these sounds are freaking out my dog. Had to pause until I have headphones. 🐕
hahah
My 2 cats , you don't wanna know ....
Could probably wiggle a good Muse cover with some of those sounds. Great nifty little pedal :P
😆sounds like fun for days
Your smile is so wonderful! Thank you
Your reactions cracked me up!
Watching you noodle around is super fun!
Interesting, for sure, but very niche. Thanks for the demo.
Marry whats the USB function for on the pedal and what does that all do?
The @11:00 - sound is the best...
But if you are not going to use that live on stage, what is the point? You can do most of that in post production while having clean music and better control, right? lol
You get more beautiful in each video ..Happy Thanksgiving Mary from Tennessee
You make me better, thanks!
Isane sounds from another planet ! I love it
you should try out oscilloscope music!
you seem like a sucker for synths :D
awesomenessthe little tune at the end sounds similar to the beginning of contra - vampire weekend
Interesting pedal Mary. LOL my GR33 seems simple. Love your stuff
Ah okay, I know what not to ask for Christmas... But I did look to the end and liked your review.
Mary, speaking of cool pedals, you should do a video on the Electro Harmonix Synth9.
You're very, very nice, Mary. I love your songs! From Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
We Love your channel. My daughter Anna is a guitarist and a gamer. She heard this video and wants this pedal. She would love to create video game music of her own.

i can see Mary doing 8-bit covers with this...

As a fellow Brit, I greatly appreciate the spelling. Though I can't picture any of the settings but the octave being useful outside of experimental music...
I have that same desk lamp
If I buy many pedals on Reverb, does that mske me a spender too?
Cool intro, you know EVERYBODY!
I really can see a death metal band using these, Deicide did some insane solos that sound quite sinister using this kid of thing.
Its rather like the Earthquaker Devices Arpanoid pedal. Useful on sci fi soundtracks only!
PWM = pulse width modulation. If I was going to cover a St. Vincent jam -- say, Rattlesnake, for instance -- this would be a good sound to bring to the mix. No computer required.
The sound in the beginning would be stupendous with a bass and an envelope filter and ocatver!!!!
Haha---I'm so glad I waited to buy the orange acoustic amp---thanks, Mary---you made my life so much more interesting and fun.
That first preset sounds like a muse intro, that’s hilarious
Also 7:48 reminded me of Megalomania
What kind of guitar is that?
You're expression when playing the synth octave seems to go from bewildered to loving it. Great video on a truly weird pedal.
11:00 You've just tapped into Matt Bellamy's secret guitar-sound catalog.
Do you get a discount if you buy six and send them a video of all the effects running at once?
I love the fact that you love the fact that they spelled colour correctly :)
And now we know how every 80's game soundtrack was made.
"And now for something completely different" ! Lol ! (I know I used that quote before on here but,it seemed appropriate again! Cheers ! :-)
Delay and reverb it!!! Synch to delay to triplet and watch soundscapes unfolds.
Mary! You should try SINGING in to it! Crazy sounds!
I could have a sound effects battle on stage with my keyboard player could maybe probably make it cool that be about it?
I liked three or four of those effects. I just wish we could've heard more presets within the other effects.
Her eyes are really beautiful. Very kind.
Imagine if Korn was founded today...

Floyd said "NO"
I am sure that it can produce some amazing effects but me I just enjoy playing guitar.
That synth octave setting is like a Sega Mega Drive in pedal format!
You can use it for intro's, vamp's, interludes
This would make one hell of an alarm clock.

Does it work with bass?
PWM is my absolute favorite!
Hi Mary! 👋
Reminds me of Portal 2 alot.
Like you are just jumping across the puzzle
Would a collab with Martin Miller and Tom Quale, at that awesome studio that they play, be possible?
I would love to hear your voice in a full band performance. And in that band.... imagine the greatness.
Very useful, for keeping the living room door open!
Nice pedal that. Not as bizarre as the Korg miku but realky cool.
