I want your youtube channel to explode. This is such fantastic content. You and I are a lot alike in that I'm quickly bored with basic pedal functions and always need to try to find the extremes of what any given box is capable of... I blame being 35 years old and Electro-Harmonix pedals for this...
A tip for anyone using the PS6 in a traditional way for solo harmonies, etc - Get a headphone amp like the Blackstar or Vox ones and plug that into the stereo out. Running a long aux lead from that to the PA makes for an an easy real stereo harmony that sounds much more realistic than going mono through your own amp and means you don’t need to lug a second amp around. 👍🏻
@@CyberattackWorld on my Oceans 12 I set one bank down an Octave. And the other bank Up an Octave. Then I set the expression to reverse them. So I get the two octaves inverting/ reversing on each other as fast or slow as I want. I made a synth too with the "tremolo accelerator" via expression and dry signal. It's nuts.
I had to rewind the video multiple times because I got entranced by the trippy editing and forgot what I was listening to, holy shit. Great video, I want a PS-6 now
Just stumbled across this channel while researching a pedal. I absolutely love everything I've seen so far. Instant subscribe and I'm sending this to my band mates
I love using the S-Bend to start a couple of octaves DOWN with a slow rise. Start with pedal down and play a major chord. It starts as a rumble and rises to resolve to the chord (reminds a little of the THX sound). Killer open to bring in any rock song. Let the chord resolve and start feeding back with the drums starting over the top.
I've been going through all your videos from first upload... Ivan, the quality of your perspectives cannot be understated. I'm endlessly grateful for the way you're opening up my eyes to a world of incredible creativity.
This is awesome, I’ve never reached the full potential of this pedal, found it hard to incorporate it into anything but these tips will definitely be getting used , awesome video
Super cool idea with the P5 up with chords!! It’s such a cool way to be able to get some of those chord extensions (such as 9 and #11) into a nice, lush sounding chord!!
Thank you for posting this. I've been using the PS6 for YEARS and always had issues with the S-Bend. i even read the manual (often) and was hitting a brick wall. I see that the the Rise and Fall time are separate that mode. You were getting that wacky Pat Metheny/John Scofield synth thing and I'm excited to be able to get that! Thanks again.
this video was so entertaining and informative, it gave me a feeling of hope and inspiration! I borrowed this pedal from a buddy once, I couldn't believe how good it was. It will definitely be one of my next gear purchases.
Man this is seriously very good! I learned alot from it, I've always wanted this pedal for like Maiden stuff, but it can really do so much more. Cheers brother!
Thanks so much! This demo was so much more useful than all the other ones I've seen that just used it on rock solos. Also those comment sections were just full of people saying " this pedal sucks, by this other more expensive one." The sound was exactly what I was looking for.
I discovered this video and your channel last week while looking for some inspiration on how to use the PS-6 and I've come back and watched the video and specifically the last part with that awesome synth/tremolo song like 38 times. I can't get it out of my head. I think I just need to learn the song and the solo, maybe that will help get it out haha!
@@Michael-bl4no couldn’t be happier bro, it’s smaller and (even though might look a bit overwhelming at first) you can dial in exactly what you want from it. Tweaking it is a lot of fun. Prefer it over my whammy dt too
Man, second time I see this video. I owed you the like. BTW, this video made decide to buy this pedal. Standing by for Black Friday, let's see if I catch a sale. Thank you three thousand for making this video.
Perfect video to showcase it's features, people that thought this pedal is just a whammy/pog pre-drive pitch shifter were disappointed. Maybe if you start a hype around this pedal Boss will come up with a PS-500 with presets, MIDI and stereo I/O.
youtube randomly recommended this channel to me and my ADHD brain is intrigued. thank you, algorithm. and thank you, cyberattack youtube channel for existing.
I came here because I saw one on Marketplace and I had no idea what it can do. Now I can't wait for the seller to reply The editing, explanation and humor is fantastic. You've earned a new subscriber, buddy
Yes, it can do an octave above or below. To be honest, I don’t think the octaves sound very good for a lot of the stuff people want to do with octave effects-organ sounds, fake bass, fake 12 string, etc. I love the PS6 but I don’t think it does these as well as the Electro-Harmonix POG for instance. However the sounds are there, so if you’re up for finding glitchier octave sounds then the PS-6 can probably produce something original.
@@CyberattackWorld Fantastic response. Tbh the reason I asked is because I recently acquired Donner's Digital Octave pedal, and I would've hated that I spent money on that pedal when I could've achieved the same results with this one, but apparently that's not the case Anyway, thanks for your help. I'm definitely looking forward to checking on all of your videos
Just watched this again and avoided bed. Thanks 👍. I like to put impending work off as long as possible. Love ps6. Only bettered by ps5. More vids please 👍🤘😃😎
It's both you and Janek Gwizdala (baby elephant sound) who's inspired me to buy this pedal (while already having 2 octave pedals on my board). Mine's arrived yesterday and I'm having a lot of fun and inspiration with it (as well as frustration lol) My noob-tip would be to place it at the bottom of the board so you're not stretching your leg while using s-bend 😂 As always, thanks for the great video!
thank you, and yes I agree this pedal is absolutely an underrated jackpot. lemme know how you like it after distortion, I think the difference is night and day. FX loop is even better, I've found.
Very informative and inspiring video. I’m mainly looking for a pitch pedal to do 5ths, and I didn’t even realize all the other capabilities. The EHX Pitchfork is the standard these days, but this pedal seems to have more control. I like the way this tracks as opposed to a lot of other pedals.

It’s so good! I laughed super hard throughout the entirety of the video, but I also can’t wait to try out these tips with my PS-6! Hahaha!
The best by far, I mean who else is even trying
I really love this editing style. Great tones too!

This video is by far the most useful and informative video on the PS-6. Great job. Thank you.
you poor soul, you probably came for a normal review like i did but instead we got this scizo type content lmao
Best review / tip video I've ever seen. 20/10 stars, hearts, and moons. Amazing.
thank you for the hearts and moons especially
This has honestly been the most useful video about the PS-6 I’ve seen since I bought mine 2 years ago. This really changed how I look at its features!
Super trippy! :-) Actually got more interesting tone combos from that pedal than I imagined. Well done.
thanks doc, PS-6 is an overlooked goldmine

This video convinced me to get the pedal and do all the things it showed me, and here I am 3 months later watching it for the 100th time.

Have fun
Thanks for the tips! I had mine before my distortion pedals initially, but you're right it sounds SO much better after them!
The best pedal video format ever actually (y)
This channel is epic yo. I hope you keep making vids!
oh man i have good news for you
this is wonderful and great please keep making videos it's perfect and im buying one of these tomorrow
Such a dope video. Nice departure from the other Boss Harmonist videos.
Bought one of these and immediately tested each of these. Led directly to finding a few completely different ways to use it!
Perfect video to showcase it's features, people that thought this pedal is just a whammy/pog pre-drive pitch shifter were disappointed. Maybe if you start a hype around this pedal Boss will come up with a PS-500 with presets, MIDI and stereo I/O.
yeah this pedal is so much more. would love to see Boss do a mega pitch-shifter like that
Great content dude, keep it up. Love the editing style.
Just got this pedal and had your exact same experience with it! Its crazy underrated! Great Video!
thanks, and yes it's absolutely a hidden gem
I'm in love with that guitar. What the fuck is that bro.
thanks, it's a custom guitar I had built for me by Alex Glasser at Iron Horse Instruments in NY
