NOTIFICATION SQUAD - MASH LIKE TO FIGHT BEZOS - 1 LIEK = 1 BILLION DOLLARS STOLEN FROM JEFFY B
Hey, that idea I had while you were eating a burger, I decided to render it in browser so you don't have to install it and it will run on all platforms including your TV. Also I finished designing most of the Boss GT-1000 swipeable browser mod that I threw in Nita's (Strauss) comments on her rig rundown that people responded favorably to.
Here's the thing I figured out about gesture control with your foot - I can make it so you can swipe air, but you will destabilize...so I put a box around the sensor so that its range is tuned to the box and you basically can use it like a control surface similar to a glide pad so it support use while standing. The cool part is that since the box is basically invisible to the sensor (it's like the saw guide for a saw, I guess) that if you're down trying to fiddle with your processor/expression unit you can use regular hand gestures to browse and configure your unit for most common things you'd want to assign to a motion for - programmable and learns how you want to run your floor units. If I can make it work for one model/type/mfr, I can make it work for any. :-)
@@russellzauner Where can I get some info on this mod you developed? I have my Kemper foot controller I would love to do this to.
how does this pedal map to : Attack, Release, Ratio?
i am guessing:
Attack to Attack,
Release to Sustain
Ratio to Level
you know how old people that play guitar say "we didn't have it that easy back in the day" they're right.
We have to be grateful for this type of stuff, suites everyone, the beginner dude that wants to try a pedal, the broke guitarist that still wants to have gear, the experienced dude that wants a quick back up, the one that doesn't want to carry a lot of stuff in their bag, the memelord that will buy all the amazon pedals.
@@creamwobbly yall dont have a microcenter or a fry’s?
Ya kinda agree
Dont forget the normally buys expensive pedals but avoids certain types like delays and loopers getting trolled into finally picking one up.
Only pedal I ever had until recently was a Maestro Fuzztone, bought n about 1967. Wonder where it went, along with my Melody Maker and Harvard amp.
I find it soothes the gear lust/gas without being "irresponsible" lol.
Ima build an Amazon basics pedal board.
I might do this as well question is do they have a power supply and a Amazon basics board.
Wish: *would like to know your location*
Im doing it too😅
You know what's funny? Jeff Bezos got a divorce last year, and so like a typical divorcee, he's building the pedalboard his wife never let him build.
🤣
Brilliant sir
Stupid!!!!
Divorce Zindabad, HaHaHa!!! 😊☺️😊
Okay, so if you have not bought one of these, or the Kokko version, you will have a hard time believing how good it actually is.
As someone that owns an ego and a Dynacomp, both considered standards of guitar compression, I can absolutely vouch for the fact that this bad boy deserves far more praise than it gets.
Mine was $26 AUD and it plays better than my Dynacomp, you cannot go wrong.
Agreed!
What would be good settings for Brad Paisley country style guitar playing?
@Dirt Farmer depends on your pickups, but assuming you're running single coils, turn comp up to 2 o'clock or so, attack to 9 o'clock then match the volume. Just go looking for that snappy sound, with a quick response.
Knobs glow in the dark too Trey
The very height of luxury
lol thought i was high thanks for ruining that ha ha ha
all pedals need dis
Just a headsup! its identical to the Kokko Compressor (Same hard case, three black knobs with greenish bars) You might want to look into that!
That was my first thought as well.
Yup, it looks like all the amazon basics pedals are practically identical to those pedals.
@@gratefuloctopus7446 just chinese rebranding as always
I just opened my Kokko compressor up, and it's exactly the same except for the logo which says "xxy 1646"
@@ayeapprove Lol, exactly.
I wouldn't be surprised if all of those pedal brands, nux, kokko, rowin, donner, mooer, moen, are all basically produced by the same company. I'm pretty sure they're all based in Shenzhen, as well.
Pretty much are all from the same factories and rebranded for customer. Mooer and Joyo are the only two I've seen that are somewhat different now and are have their own designs and distribution such as Mooer's attempts at making budget hx stomp/gt1000 competitors; but even still rebrand their products for some retailers ( ie Thomann's Harley Benton house marque are all Joyo pedals/amps)
I am a Mooer/Osiamo endorsed. Yes Shenzhen is the home base. Joyo,mooer, along with a few other companies are owned by or distributed by Osiamo. I am also allowed to get Nobles pedals too!
@@NFMorley Mooer and Joyo pedals are actually made in the same factory. There's a couple videos of Joyo factory tours and they mention that Mooer is on the other side of the factory with the only thing separating them being a door. I wouldn't be surprised if they were actually part of the same company.
@@NFMorley i mean, there aren’t that many pedal designs flat out ultimately, just differences in values, order and controls and combinations of existing circuits and chips. Also to a degree component quality.
And mosky too. I think it's probably a generic pedal manufacturer with different branding for different companies... The components of a guitar pedal cost like $4 anyway.
Okay the first ten seconds of this made me laugh out loud in an empty house.
Same
Please review the whole line. Interesting.
This is #3 I've done, more on the way!
Actually the NUX compressor has a second mode when long pressing the footswitch, that's why it's probably not it (and probably was more expensive to manufacture)
You could of course compare it to a branded pedal to see if is the same or similar
I clicked this video after having seen Ricky Tinez's video on the delay and compressor earlier today. Gave you a lil shoutout and now I'm definitely subbing for variety of thought/genre/perspective!
He's like a mix between a metal kid & a San Francisco show tunes kid.
ive got a kokko compressor and this seems to be the exact same one as that one
im fairly certain this is still NUX, if you look at the mini core series.. basically the same except for the logo
Or maybe it's a koko compressor
Koko!
I just played this pedal moments ago it's so worth the money. It's like a squishy fuzz depending on the gain. It's fabulous 👌
Nice Kokko... I mean Amazon Basics Compressor...
Nux does make a compressor with that exact same form factor and control layout.
By hitting the wammy, you're not letting the sustain run its course.
I actually have that compressor branded as kokko I think for sure this is the whole kokko line rebranded to Amazon basics
same here
That intro haha 🤣🤣🤣
Someone once came to me and said that there are more scales beyond the Pentatonic scale...
I of course laughed in their face for speaking such ludicrousness 🤣
What's a scale?
I think this is the same as a Kokko and some of the other ones look the same as some of the Kokko pedals
Sounds pretty hissy. When you kick it in, there’s a bit of noise.
Most likely another Nux, but without the branding. Same construction. Certainly sounds good.
i think the brand is kokko in indonesia
Had to click the like button because of the intro. Haha!
These pedals actually make me happy.... 1 because even the tightest budget musician can have pedals and 2.... reminds me that even though I’m broke I am very lucky to have already spent money I use to have on really great guitar plugins so I don’t need these pedals
@@alexsilva4515 shaming someone’s English? Bad person detected.
@Syd McCreath what world renown band are you in?
Voiding Warranties like a Boss🤘🏽
Bezos is Lex Luthor!!!!
Did Bonnie and Clyde get horribly killed in a shit storm of gunfire??? Let’s just stick to tasty jams and great deals Mam.
In my head I was Clyde and Trey was (constantly fawning over deep voice guy) Bonnie. 😂🤘🏽
Check out JHS’s video on the Amazon Basics pedals. Explains a lot about OEM production that NU-X is doing here. The guts are usually branded NU-X. IMO, that’s a good thing because they make pretty good stuff. ✌🏻
It's a good episode, but at least Nu-X brand was pronounced correctly in this video.
Yo yo yo! Buddy! I just stumbled across your TH-cam channel this morning errr I meant this afternoon. In any event, I watched your Amazon basics Ibanez tube screamer review first and then I found the compressor one. I actually own it Kokko compressor and I think it’s great. However, when you opened up the tube screamer and revealed that it was actually a Nux pedal I started getting dizzy. So I can’t figure out if Nux and Kokko are the same company or not. Looking at the very small details of these petals you can see that they are exactly the same. However, I read on a bass forum that the kokko was actually a copy of the Nux. how can this be? I guess I’ll have to keep digging. Thanks for your great videos. I hit the buttons.
Mr jommins
I've had the exact same pedal for 3 years but branded by KOKKO, and it looks exactly the same on the inside, but mine says "XXY 1646". I don't really like it, because it adds way too much noise compared to a higher quality compressor.
Theyr noisy by nature tho...but ya
Wampler ego is only 10 times the price
does it djent
I'm loving this Bezos series 😂
Nice demos bud !!!
I have this exact pedal. Under the KoKo brand
Search for kokko effects on aliexpress or any china site, and there you go amazon basics
My first real amplifier was a 1979 Fender Super Twin. No amplifier is heavy after hauling one of those bastards around.😅
“Well it did something”
…yeah it added some hiss🤷🏻♂️
Probably not putting all their eggs in one basket. They contracted multiple companies to manufacture the PCB's.
The plot “thickens” - took me a minute
Does it come with alexa
Alexa play guitar for me 😂
Nose ring and small beanie , sweet lol
Check out that Swiff audio cordless pedal board with pedals combo. 😉
Review the new Joyo BanTamp XL series!!!
I have the Jackman II LTD and cab. I have gigged with it the last 4 shows! 200-300 average attendance and it rocked!
Dude, can’t be bothered to find the video that had the Amazon pedal with two function.
Can’t remember the brand which built the pedal, but on that pedal when you press and hold the switch it changes modes.
You sound just like Ryan Reynolds...love your vids regardless...lol
My bad brain has highly delusional built in sustain my ears ring out for days
Wow dude... those pedals sound prime
Now I want to watch Trigun
sustain 12 o'clock, attack off, Level MAX.
It’s the Kokko compressor.
Cheap compressors don't generally add anything good to your tone. At least get one that can mix the compressed signal to the un compressed. I have 5 from cheap Chinese, to optical, to the Empress Compressor.
Generally, I do think you are right and that's true on both comps. Not a fan of most of these Dynacomp clones without blend. Have to go to the Keeley Compressor Plus or Wampler Ego level before they are useful; and definitely with using the blend control. The exception to the rule of cheap comps not being worth it is the Mooer Yellow comp. I find it transparent/gentle enough that it doesn't necessarily need the blend. And it does often add and subtract some things that can improve the clean tone; can leave it always gently on. The something useful it does is a slight bass firming up that's natural to the compression, then a mild mid-recess and a mild blues drivery treble push that projects the sound better. But it's not as smooth and transparent as the Diamond - they're both good, but different. My goto is the Darkglass Hyperluminal on SYM mode. But the Mooer finds use, often lives always on, on my bass rig and sometimes on clean guitar. It's worth having around. The Walrus Mira is a step up, with clearer tone and more controls - and have been selling for good discounts recently.
I think I heard the difference with the pedal on and with the pedal off, but I do not trust myself.
I like these reviews.
mine wont turn on. I even got a 9v plug for it. trash thing.
Can you steve Lowel it with two of em?
Hey am a guitarist that mostly plays just as a hobby, would you recommend this pedal?
Yeah for sure, I think you’re the target audience!
@@treyxaviermusic amazing thank you
Sounds like crap, tbh.
I recommend the Valeton CS-10 compressor. I have one and I love it.
What most likely happened was Amazon wanted to ship before NUX could get the screens with the brand masked off (in PCB fabrication it's called "nomenclature" layer; I worked in Tektronix PCB fab when I was 19, when it existed) and they either agreed to ship some from existing stock or prototype/test/qualification runs or simply didn't tell Amazon because only a few were going to go out on certain models.
So, in my experience it's very probable the compressor *never* had NUX branding on the inside.
and now there will be guitarists that swear the ones with Nux on the boards sound warmer and more transparent, creating a collector's market for these LOL
@@robertkorn With or without the Nux logo, they all come off the same factory assembly line.
@@rookmaster7502 That went right over your head, didn't it??
Yep, same profile, same layout, same assembly.
07:40 We knew you were confused Trey but we subscribed to your channel anyway....
What matters is that we’re confused together
@@treyxaviermusic how true my friend. How true indeed.
New X?
They’re not called Nucks? Nux.
Does it work with bass guitar?
bending the string causes sustain . nice one gear god .
Frickin’ B E Z O S !
Probably a Koko
Not that it's a big deal, but i've heard the word "The plot thickens" recently in a film i've been watching! Anyways, great video!
That... is one of the less impressive compressors I've heard, regardless of price. I think most people would be better off with the Behringer CS400 Compressor/Sustainer, which I believe is a clone of the old BOSS CS-3 Compression Sustainer: or maybe the TC Electronic Forcefield, if you must have a metal case.
Jeff Bezos really know how to get every last dime in your wallet
(Cracks open pedal we all think he’s going to talk about the diode’s and Capacitors and he talked about branding like we gave a shit)
what power supply did you use?
Mine was supposed to come yesterday but got delayed. So disappointed amazon.
Jeff got sidetracked on his delivery route
Looks just like the KOKKO...
Just like 2 previous amazonbasics pedal, it just another kokko pedal
I gladly take bezos money with you
I could never put something made by Amazon with an Amazin logo on my board.
The four score fucking made me kek
Want sustain? GIBSON
idk if this guy knows how compression works
Yeah support Amazon, forget the independents, send that money China and Bezos.
Dude, you rock. But i would never buy this Amazon trash. Bezos can stuff it.
My favorite quote was that they list themselves as ‘pedals not for professionals’
Like damn dude...
Pedals are for fun.
Unfortunately the nicer your amp... The more you can justify pricy pedals.
If you amp is a thr10. Behringer pedal is fine. If it's an original deluxe reverb... Well... Maybe that original ts808 is justified
I actually really like the ed1 Edward compressor
I think AmazonBascs has a delay pedal as well.
I know that they do, and I know that because it is in my possession 😀
@@treyxaviermusic where's the AB phase pedal?
I think that might be a kokko pedal. They are basic stuff made in china.
All these references to Bezos. They guy probably doesn't even know these exist since he's got 9 layers of executives between him and the pedals.
I’m certain that you’re correct, but it’s a lot funnier to think of him sitting there soldering each one by hand
So just because Josh over at JHS Pedals did a video on Amazon pedals recently, now everyone has to jump on the bandwagon and do videos on the AmazonBasics pedals?
If you take a look at when I did the drive pedal video, you’ll see that it was long before Josh did his.
It just seems unsettling that suddenly every youtuber seems to be pushing these amazon pedals super hard. I assume it is easy to do affiliate links or something? Can't help but to just feel a sense of low-key dread with all of this amazon "basics" crap... how the hell is a guitar pedal a basic item? Sounds dumb but the fact that they sound good and are made of metal and stuff is the scariest part (for businesses). With them being pushed this hard, who wouldn't buy these?
Please don’t use the substandard word thusly again. Ever.
They like it better BECAUSE it was cheaper to manufacture 😂
What is Bezos sorry man I'm old lol...these pedals suck tho...sorry but they kinda do.
I've watched a handful of reviews of them...the switches vary and my guess is they wont work well for long...hate the led lights and well I just wouldnt buy them unless I was desperate.....but I hit like ...hope that helps
Will Ferrell has let himself go
Compressors are all pretty much the same circuit.
Top notch guitars.. check... top of the line amps.. check... professional background.. check... $7 black ernie ball guitar strap. :(
What's wrong with that? It's a good strap
egg roll??
So it's not a nu-x
Surprise at 6:49
apparently this dude doesnt have any hobbies that involve buying shit with china lol welcome to the world of OEMs
What's next? The Amazon Basics Telecaster copy in Bezos Burst? 😂😂
So it's the actual KoKko pedal? 😂
You seem really bored at your work now. Do something fun for yourself. Do a max volume thingy or something to get your blood up.
I mean, I had a blast making this, not sure why you think that
@@treyxaviermusic Im glad to hear it. I was probably just projecting and having a troll moment.
