This is cool as sh^t, Andy! And so cool they put an Andy switch on their pedal! Can’t wait to hear you demo it! 🤘😌🎸
Outside of the uniqueness of this pedal and the new version having the “Andy” switch… the real nugget here is remembering to try your pedals in different tunings and settings to yield wider varieties of results. Good stuff as always Andy.
the instant Cranberries sound in a box! I love this pedal and I'm so pumped I got mine back in the day for $25 before the aftermarket fired up on these. Cool extra feature on that pedal, wild sound
Such an awesome effect! Thick and chewy chorus is the best, although I generally prefer flangers to get my chorus sounds.
Awesome to see Past Fx getting mentioned on here, too! You need to do a full demo of that one when you get it. 😎👍
Have had one for nearly 25 years. A much loved pedal!
Another trick with the FX65: use a variable voltage power supply to starve the circuit, slows down the chip clock to make it even more lo-fi trippy!
Good point, I always run mine at 12V and will have to try it! Thanks!
@@AndyDemos What do you use to power yours?
Could you guide me further on this topic? They gave me one but I don't know how to use it :/
@@Jonh548 With the audio output in the second/stereo jack, start with the power at 9v and gradually lower it. When the unit doesn't have enough it will make a loud clicking sound, so increase it just above that level.
@@Markleford Thanks brother, I'm trying to find a video that talks about this but I'm having a hard time, if you know of any video that talks about it I'll appreciate it 🙏🏻🥲
I've known about this trick since I was a kid. Best chorus pedal ever.
I'd love an Andy switch on my entire pedalboard TBH. Awesome tricks!
Just found an FX65 and purchased it because of this..thanks Andy.
That's really cool! Thanks Andy!
Another exceptional pro tip, it gives pause on how to apply chorus. Can't wait to see the future review video.
I'm Glad Andy's Back.
This is literally the only stereo chorus I have ever used, and that was the early 90s (and wasn't even mine) and I have never thought about chorus since. Until now, my band wants to do some 80s covers... So naturally, I thought of the DOD, and magically (without even searching) this shows upin my TH-cam feed. Crazy.
Sounds incredible! That slow, flangey Kula Chorus is the best
DOD came up with many great modulation pedals
Great video. It's about time you should get your own line of signature pedals. You deserve it. Keep up the excellent work.
That was really awesome Andy
The FX65 was the first pedal I ever bought in the late 80s or early 90s. I still have it.
same but I sold mine, and have regretted it ever since.
Just found one in my mom's garage forgot I ever had it
Something is different I always thought Andy was a pretty straight up solid guitar player. This looks more natural than the older reviews. I like it.
I've gotten a similar sound when setting up the DOD Rubberneck to a straight chorus sound, didn't know how to describe that cancellation vibe in words. Super cool!
Close to the left chorus pedal, I should say.
I use a DOD rubberneck. How did you set it up for chorus? Thanks 🙂
Great. For a change the modded version actually is better than the original. Really like it,
Reminds me of Ty Tabor of Kings X for some reason! Lovely sounds.
Very Hammond into Leslie organ sounds at the end!
I have this pedal and it does a convincing Leslie sound. I use it for black hole sun and it sounds👌
that modded one is fantastic Andy
Andy gets to call in former co-worker favors to get a modulation rate slowed in a pedal. I'd hate ya if I didn't love ya so much 😂
Haha, he did it while we worked together. I’ve had these pedals for a long time!
Sounds great. It's funny how, in the land of chorus, a little nudge in this or that direction of only a few milliseconds gets you what feels like a qualitatively different sound. I suspect the "iffy" part of it is that the FX65, and most BBD-based chorus pedals, use small-value ceramic capacitors for setting the range of the clock that drives the delay chip, and those caps are not especially precise. That's not a slight on quality, but it does mean that *nailing* the sounds you illustrated can be hit or miss, and vary by unit, unless one is selecting caps, based on measured value, rather than what is printed on the component. The schematic shows the critical capacitor to be 25pf, which doesn't leave a lot of room for adjustment. Much like the Boss BF-2 flanger, the FX65's "Depth" control essentially pans between a fixed voltage and the LFO. So, more of one gets you less of the other, and the Delay Time control adjusts what that final combination results in.
Wow thanks Mark, always interesting to hear your input! 👍🏻
@@AndyDemos Thanks Andy. I always learn from you as well. One day we have to meet.
In the meantime, here's an experiment that you or any viewers here can try. I've done it and it works.
With "through-zero flanging", the delayed signal being modulated moves *ahead* in time, relative to the stable "dry" signal. It is essentially impossible to get a bucket-brigade chip to do that. *However* , if one delays the dry/clean signal by a very small amount - less than 2msec - the delay can be swept to times *shorter* than that. Craig Anderton explained this very nicely some 40 years ago in one of his GP columns.
I mentioned how the Depth control works in the FX65, and many other analog time-based FX, panning/blending between a fixed and modulated voltage controlling the clock in the circuit. I own a pair of old blue-box Boss BF-1 flangers, that use this approach. I lifted one end of the resistor that mixes the dry signal in with the wet (an easily reversible and nondestructive mod). If I use one on the units as my "dry" signal, and the other as my modulated signal (using a splitter/mixer to separate and then recombine their respective signals), I can use the Manual delay control on one unit to set a fixed delay. This determines how much "room" there is for the swept unit to move "ahead" of the other in time. In effect, I can determine how long the swept unit spends on "the other side of zero" before returning back through the zero point.
Even wilder, if BOTH units are allowed to be swept, in unsynchronized fashion, the "through-zero" point crops up in an unpredictable and inconsistent way. Not everybody's cup of meat, but interesting.
In the FX65, one could produce a "fixed delay" by lifting one end of R39 and/or R46, both 47k, and adjusting the Depth and Delay Time controls to get a steady short delay coming out either or both output jacks.
And the price of FX65s just doubled. Nicely done demo!
Also thank John Frusciante
soul to squeeze
Yup, I think it sure is.
Hey Andy , would you see if you could do a demo on the elastic
maltress pedal or the foot phaser from pastFX ?
Great video dawg
Very cool Andy. I know what you mean about the rate on Chorus pedals often being too high even at lower settings
I couldn’t wait to get rid of the fx65 because of the phase cancellation. I did some recording in stereo but gigged with it in mono. I used it for 3
years but finally gave up on it.
The other guitar player in the band had one that was opposite mine. He always used the top output, the bottom output had the phase cancellation on his.
I replaced it with a Boss CE-3 which is still on my pedal board 38 years later.
Super cool!
Love that Redtail. All your dad’s guitars are awesome, but this one (P-90’s!) and the black Strat are the two best. I’d give up a lot to own one.
Thanks so much! Y’know he has more of these Beetle Kill models for sale 😉
@@AndyDemos I did not!
I have had this pedal since I was a kid and I could never make it sound like that. I will have try it again since I still have it.
Hi Andy---picked up a DOD after your visit with Dan and Mick on TPS (awesome video with them, learned so much, thanks) and it is just a killer pedal with tons of great tones, in this day and age the adapter is close to a non-issue when youmcan get the adapter delivered to your door, anyway, awesome video, thanks!
So glad you’re enjoying the pedal and thanks for watching! 👊👊
Always preferred my chorus as slow as possible. Got a catalinbread callisto and I love how pronounced the effects can be even when the lfo isn't quick enough to make a recognizable pattern
I just used a Baseball Bat display case to store all my DOD pedals. Looks awesome.

I bought one of these as a teenager in the late 80s..... and HATED IT. It put me off chorus for 30 years. LOL. I get it now!!!
My old DOD stereo phaser was so unique and wish to God I had not let it go.
Andy! Did you ever end up demoing the Pastfx? Truly incredible company (who are slowly annexing my board lol) and I would love to hear you run some of their stuff through its paces!
No, I haven’t yet but I have the PX65 here! It has all the same sonic characteristics plus the bass chorus ver, vibrato and regen to accentuate those faux thru-zero tones I love so much. Realy awesome recreation!
The Rocktron Tsunami does that weird cancellation thing too. I does it no matter what output you use but the note is different on each output.
Sounds good
El verdadero chorus de bssm
I bought one of these for $40 on eBay back in 2010 and wish I never sold it. Such an underrated chorus pedal.
Yes, they hovered around 50-60 for many many years. Despite the renewed interest, I rarely see them over 100 bucks on Reverb which is a steal IMO. 👊💥
@@AndyDemos I'm going to have to keep my eyes out for one, now. I never thought to try the second output.
Those p90s just came alive ,never sounded better.
I never use chorus enough, thank you for the recommendations Andy!
Its got a real nice flanging quality to it, I'm sure even more so when you turn the delay time down. Sort of similar to my retrosonic chorus when you turn the chorus intensity a little past 0. cool stuff!
This spot on the delay time (1 o clock) is the flange sweet spot for me. Any less and it just makes the sweep less pronounced and shallow.
Whoa!
Does anybody know if it's just the 80s run of DOD FX65's which do this through zero flange thing with the upper output jack? Do the 90s FX65's or other DOD stereo choruses do this thing with the upper output jack, too? 0:01
Hold up! What is this "string fanning" madness going on at 4:20. That needs a whole instruction video on its own. Please share!
That’s just my way of tremolo fingerpicking! I have a vid on the channel going over it a bit, thanks!
th-cam.com/video/sf24m4xF-Ro/w-d-xo.html
that’s super weird and super groovy!
I have an fx68 - also a dang good chorus pedal
I've got some DOD fx-pedals that are rated at 11.6 VDC. Could I safely run them on a 12VDC power supply?
I've got a DOD FX65 and would love to have it with a proper switch. The stock switch results in lots of double presses these days so you go from off to on and back to off with a single press or vice versa.
Yes, I had a whole DOD board when I started in the 90s and the switches drove me nuts. These days, a pedal switcher like GigRig solves that 👍🏻
man thats so cool, pedal secrets
That is so instantly the Teenage Wrist sound
Andy thoughts on the Ibanez SC10
Sounds great Andy, whats your thoughts now on the Digitech Nautila ? Cheers
Thanks! Nautila was cool in a different way-- a digital multi-voice pedal so it was aimed at complex modulation sounds using multiple delay lines where this DOD is closer to a shallow flanger!
@@AndyDemos great breakdown Andy👍
Thanks bro
I miss my DOD chorus.
Cool t-shirt.
As a whole I think chorus should have gone the way of gated reverb, but this is actually pretty damn cool.
I swear my DMM XO does the phase cancel thing too
Doh, I only have the FX 60. :/
Might have the same board though.. Not sure.
Does this work with other Mono-in, Stereo-out pedals like the Boss CE-5?
I'm not sure, it all relies on the circuit and the amount of delay time it uses (shorter times tends to give similar flanger-like results).
Andy, are there any instructions on how to do this mod?
I believe the slower rate on the FX65 comes from adding a resistor in parallel with the rate knob. I don’t know the value but you can experiment and not hurt anything.
Thanks Andy for the fast response! You’re the best!
Nice
Blood sugar sex magik was recorded with this chorus pedal
👍🏻
Mr. Black Double Chorus is a bit different, but depending on the knobs will be a chorus, positive flange, through zero flange, and negative flange. It's very cool and makes one pedal even more flexible.
Rush tones
This pedal was all over Blood Sugar Sex Magic.
Yessir!
⚜️x🤘🏻x⚜️
Say no to the chorus and overdrive combo 🤢🤮lol! (Not my cuppa :p)
