22 minutes in and I’ve laughed out loud at least twice. “I don’t have this pedal am I gonna survive” is the greatest thing I’ve ever heard.
Oh yeah and it’s literally 4:20 am and I’m sober.
More of an FX-69 GRUNGE YEAHHH man myself
LOL This was surreal to watch. Thanks for turning my gripe into great content, Josh! I hope someone hooks you up with a Morley EVO-1 soon:)
Hey Josh, I know your show is about pedals, but you should consider doing a “rig-rundown” type show covering your guitars and amps, talking about your favorites, etc., enQuiring minds want to know...
My theory on the DD-4 4 thing, because in Japanese the number four sounds similar to another word meaning Death (kinda like Whether and Weather)
Yes 4 in mandarin, japanese , sounds like die/death. It is considered unlucky. It might be inauspicious to BOSS. Now we might be spoiling it for Josh to put it in an episode :p
That's correct. Source: I used to live in Japan and speak some Japanese.
'Dont ever pour liquid into your pedal' except when you have a Rainger Minibar
No bodily fluids unless you're a wild man and want to void that warranty
@@mattgilbert7347 Bummer. So the manufacturer can say they put blood, sweat and tears into their pedal, but you can't.
Beat me to it lmao
Awesome to have a Q&A to help fill in the blanks after a topical video. I just want to share that Pete Thorn has a TonePrint for the Flashback2 delay that is made to work going into a dirty amp. It really does stay out of the way and work well.
Love the live shows. Need more of these. Learned a lot.
42:50 I actually goofed when I wrote down my favorite DD pedal in the chat. I too favor the DD5 because it was released in the 90s and I'm real big on 90s alternative & grunge.
I think of bucket brigade dark repeats as if the buckets of water are spilling a little bit between each pass till there is none left
That's the whole point of the analogy, yes.
@@xdoctorblindx actually not. the buckets brigade name actually is referring to the crazy number of caps (20ish per millisecond) in the chip. At the time people didn't think of bbd as lossy...instead they thought it was cool you could make delay chips at all.
I bought my DL4 in 2000. At that time my Guitar teacher´s opinion on this pedal was: Get rid of it, it sucks.
I´m really glad I kept it anyways. It´s been with me for countless hours of live playing and only once I had to change a switching knob.
The Looper nowadays of course is outdated, but still cool. It´s reliable and has a pretty good amount of great delays, with or without modulation.
Still love the darn thang!
I have a functioning Gibson GA-4RE oil can delay, I believe it’s a 1965. I live in KC so if you want to check it out let me know.
No treachery here, just some sweet motor hum.
You guys are great for my soul. Thank you for such great content!
If I silence me phone I cannot watch the video because I'm watching it on me phone
The typo in the intro THROW me off.
Love me some typos
😂
I had a joke about analog delay pedals...analog delay ped...analog delay...analog del...analog...ana...
No DD4 cause japanese people dont like the number four. The sound of number 4 sounds almost like death in japanese
"this is the best use of tape-delay...."
>robert fripp raises eyebrow.
As THE pedal historian, you should definitely have an oil can delay. You have the wits not to get maimed or martyred on our behalf. All in.
There's a Fender Adineko machine on ebay right now!

Hi,
No Digitech Hardwire pedal ??
I like them a lot.
Josh: "I'll mute the guitar so we don't blow your head off..."
Me: Little late for that -- put a compressor on that dang microphone, man!!
Stick a 80Hz hi-pass on Addison's SM-7 while you're at it! 💕
I ordered a delay pedal 6 months ago...still hasn't arrived!!
I wonder what the delay is?
@@PaulHikes2 dunno, but if it don't turn up tomorrow I'm sending it back!
@@PaulHikes2 I caught it. Well played.
I’m just wondering if this has had any feedback?
You are the reason why I play music now! Thanks just picked up the Fuzz Face Mini Germanium and love it!
Loved the title credits-how many times I wish I could have said this at a movie. It’s why I only used to go to matinees.
Delay and reverb. Like peanut butter and jelly. Thank you for your constant effort!
45:09 - The history of electric guitar is the history of really bad audio engineering.
I love my Memory Man,. And the Roland JC120 is the only solid state guitar amp I ever loved. Two of my favorite players, John Scofield and Adrian Belew, use the JC120. When I was a kid I had a DD2 also, that was my favorite pedal for years.
Edit: 38:12 Of course it matters.
Adrian Belew use as a JC 120? Wow
I think something that wasn't brought up was analog dry through. Probably why your favourite DD stops at 5, I think the 6 was digital dry through. The line 6 is an exception to the rule somehow.
Apparently the DD-8 also has analog dry thru: delaydude.de/en/testbericht-boss-dd-8-teil-i/?v=3a52f3c22ed6
This was such a great stream. Thoroughly enjoyed it Live. Top chat comments where hilarious and it was great to see Fluff and Rhett joining in too
At one level, a person in search of "audio purity" would look askance at a PT2399, simply because it doesn't offer exceptional bandwidth or audio resolution. But the thing is that sound reflections in the real world lack MUCH of the audio bandwidth of the source. Stand in a canyon or stairwell, or parking garage, and listen to the repeats; not exactly a paragon of bandwidth. So when the lowpass filtering applied to address any aliasing, or other artifacts introduced by the analog-digital conversion it uses, shaves off the top end, nobody really actually cares all that much, because it doesn't sound any *less* "realistic". In other words, it is very solidly GOOD ENOUGH FOR ROCK AND ROLL. Which is precisely why so many pedal-makers who could easily use something fancier and costlier, and charge a hefty price for doing so, DON'T opt for that choice and stick with the PT2399.
BTW, the Danelectro Dan-Echo uses the PT2395, which is the PT2399's big brother. It opts for an external memory chip, which allows it to achieve delay times of up to 800msec.
Is there a reason you almost never feature Wampler pedals ? Just noticed they very rarely appear on your videos despite having a huge amount of great pedals?
Josh hates this question. He features Wampler quite often. There are just too many pedals companies to give them all a lot of air time.
@@xdoctorblindx compared with other brands he features them rarely. I wondered if they didn't want to be seen featuring each others pedals too much if they're mates it might seem less genuine.
I have 2 blue SIB Echodrive pedals.- MN3005's + 12AX7. And a red Echodrive with the PT2399 + 12AX7
Yeah I have a Panther Cub V2, Walrus Audio Bellwethers, lots of Memory Man pedal types, Boss delays, Echosex pedals and and a bunch of other usual suspects
Josh and team: you could consider a PTZ camera for pedal board cam .... that way you could pan, zoom, and tilt from a little control panel, or save preset locations on the pedal board, and just hit a single key to zoom in on each pedal as you wanted to talk about them (probably a little grid for simplicity)
Love your stuff :)
In the late ‘60’s I had a Watkins Copycat. We used to let the tape loops wear out before changing them, so the repeats got darker and darker. We also used to deliberately slow down the capstan roller with a finger to get random modulation effects, and I liked playing with a tape that had been caught up in the works at some point and was all crinkled, so it gave random drop-outs and modulation.
I heard a sound effect from the "Six Million Dollar Man" show at about 18 minutes in!
Hey JOSH! Why not a limited Black Panther Cub and give the proceeds to #BlackLivesMatter ????
copy right ,the fact music should be a safe space. This is a guitar channel not a political one. fultone is a great company lead by a great man.that I'm sure every one on here loves, and knows he lives in that area and gets to own his opinion.
He hasn't released that boss video yet, so lemme spoil that
There are no '4' boss pedals because the number four is considered bad luck in Japan. Because one of its pronunciations, "shi", sounds like the word for "death"
Josh, have you ever played the Demedash T-120 deluexe Videotape Echo? It has probably the most beautiful modulation i've ever heard on a tape delay pedal. BTW i own one ahahahha
Yeah it's amazing
@@philxchitarristaeclettico5130 The great Phil X
Had a lovely chat with Steve Demedash at the Festival Sonore last September. Terrific guy. Interesting products.
I recently got a v2 and am already considering selling it for something else. It's not a bad pedal, but for me there are a number of things I don't care for and would like to be different. It's at least helped me learn more about what I'm looking for in this type of effect. Steve provides great customer service and has some great effects in the works
modification to the DL4? a piezo inside the case, hooked into the delay time, so that when you kick it, it wobbles.
I'd also add the drum model from the rack version, & maybe midi clock.
I really don't like when channels I like do lives. The videos are usually still good but I just don't understand the chat thing. Its so hard to keep up with the chat and there are convos going on on top of each other. Mostly your chat isn't going to be seen. I just prefer the regular comment section. I know it makes money for the channels so I see why its done.
But the MN3005 has EIGHT pins! 4 x 8 = 32.
The "killer app" for the Memory Man, when it was initially released, was the EHX Hot Foot pedal (here's a pic of one: www.hyperguitars.com/image/sub/is44268525884774.jpg ) that allowed you to attach a foot-controllable flexible cable to the shaft of a pot/control and work it in real time with your foot as you picked away. This was well before expression-pedals. I owned a Hot Foot at the time, and it had two major weaknesses: 1) there was *so* much torque that unless the pedal you were controlling was big and heavy or bolted down, the Hot Foot could easily flip it over, and 2) the nut used to tighten the cable end to the pot shaft required a lot of clearance around it. Both of these aspects suggested it really was optimized for use with the Memory Man or Electric Mistress. But what it meant was that you could do Whammy-like pitch bends with the Memory Man, or work the manual flanging on the EM.
I want the Milkman because my dad used to say I must be the milkman's kid. It's kizmit, sorry other people.
56:31 is that the popping sound I read about in the forums? was that issue solved?
FYI, Radiohead used an AMS DMX in Karma Police. Old rackmount unit from BBC studios
I thought it was a space echo.
Felipe Álvarez they’ve used a space echo live and in studio, but the sound at the end of the studio recording Karma Police was done by Ed O’Brien using the AMS unit
I can talk tape delay circles around any who didn't use one for best tones ever!!!!!! Scotch taper
As I watch this in the future with my past self I have to ask the question: Do I need a delay if I can time travel to my past future present self?
Why does Josh's "Great State of Kansas" t-shirt have a silhouette of Missouri?
Hi Team JHS, just wanne say you guys are doing great stuff. I missed this show, but that’s okay. I’m still alive. I’ll watch the video instead of the livestream and fill the hole in my soul with delaytalk.
Josh do you have a Digitech super ambiant thingy reverb pedal
Its okay Josh, i remember recording movies on TV with vhs tapes
I'm selling my Mel Bay book from high school....
When You ate some chips did You get sick? Was there a delayed effect ?
42, the answer is always 42.
did I mention Pink Floyd Run is one greatest delay songs
Great live show on delays. Learned so much I expected a quiz at the end.
Hey JHS gang, do this for chorus!
??? Can I ask for help with my pedals here???
Flip flops do bucket brigade great jk or s
I just bought an Angry Charlie. It was a demo pedal, but new so I got it at a pretty good price. I have an issue with it though. When it's on, it works perfect. When I step on the switch to turn it off, it does not allow any signal to pass through it. Nothing. So instead of true bypass, it's....zero bypass. I can't return it because it was sold "as is" so I am going to have to repair it myself. I was going to start with just a simple switch replacement. Or is that something in the circuit board? I don't know what to do. I picked it up for $125 so I do have some wiggle room before it becomes cost prohibitive. I don't know what their retailing for, but I love the thing, so I want it right. Right now I have an A/B pedal to just run the signal chain around it when I want a clean tone. Any ideas?
Hey! Shoot us an email at support@jhspedals.com
Good old 555 timer works perfectly
26:37 “pour water into your pedal” Got it.
You!😂
Ok what's in the bucket and what if it leaks?
hi, buddy, thanks for such a great explanation. I've got an analog delay and found out the longest time it offers is 520 ms. Is there any chance I can increase that time by changing the bucket brigade chips for more powerful ones?
No
Just buy a digital delay that, has up to 1000ms delay
I know I'm like a year and change late to this, but at about 44:55 into this vid your argument for analogue, lossy delay, 'vintage sounds', the age of the tech involved (guitars, pick-ups) and how we like that sound more compared to digital, perfect infinite repeats, is pretty much the same argument that Chef David Chang uses for what and how we like to eat. "Fresh" foods are not what we really like, overall. Same argument.
There's your TED talk subject. Really. TH-cam wouldn't let me hotlink an old 2014 GQ article. So...googling "Chef David Chang 2014 GQ Article" should take you right to it. :)
Love the vibe and detail in the show. Great blend of content and entertainment
Silence you phone... Classic
better band name ( hole in are soul .)
Look at all that "solid state crap"
🤣
Any thoughts on Tom Scholz's "Hyper Space Pedal"? Could something similar be made by JHS in the future?
th-cam.com/video/R1c0Bx_StvE/w-d-xo.html
I love your sense of humour Josh.
So at a point you in this stream Josh said never to put liquids in your pedal!!! Has he got the Rainger FX Minibar yet? 😉
That echoplex machine is the 1 thing! Do u guys remember "Curly" from City Slicker's? Damn I get it. I'm ancient, but if I could tell Curly what my 1 thing is. The 1 thing that makes life just make sense to me. It would be that echoplex tape delay. That little machine is the 1 thing that made our so- called guitar god's. I wish I could afford 1. Is there really an effect's pedal that can capture that sound. Idk. Tbh I really & truly doubt that any pedal by any maker can do what that thing really does. I bet if any pedal maker even gets even remotely close to that sound. That there is no flipping way the are going to sell it for like $50. I guarantee you that any pedal. That any of the builder's ever produce. That probably does not even truly come close, to the real deal sound of that tape delay. That their pedals will be minimum $300. Hell they sell us reproductions of pedals all the time for a price that is more expensive than the original. And we pay them & they just sit back & laugh. How many pedal manufacturers take the same design & maybe change something completely insignificant. So that they can get around the Patent lawyers & then they'll even be so bold to put it in another enclosure that's very similar to the original. That way they know we will buy it. Why? Because we are so desperate to sound like something other than what we really sound like. It's very similar to these drug dealer's who are making these designer drugs & they keep changing like 1 ingredient that is completely insignificant but it keeps them 1 step ahead of the law. And don't even get me started on how these guys buy up every piece of equipment they can find because of the supply & demand. See since they buy all the gear they can pull all the best stuff almost completely off the market. Therefore they control how much they want to drive the price up on us. That's how the control the guitar and amplifier & effects pedals markets. Think about it. It's not like any of this stuff wasn't mass produced on such a massive scale. That way they can control the supply until they can get us to drive up the demand. Then they put the word boutique in front of anything & we are like the little rats who keep pushing the button to keep giving them either drugs/orgasms until they just fall over dead. We are nothing but cattle w/cash to them.
T-Rex Replica, Way Huge Supa Puss, JHS Panther V1, and Maxon AD-9 Pro.
That is all. Thank you for your time. I won't be repeating myself as I am a Mod and we are men of few words.
Hey...I sound like Josh. Is there an echo in here? Is there a murderer at the door? Shall we subjugate the weak and drink the blood of our enemies? Hmm. That echo must be analog. It keeps getting darker and darker...
What, no Binson Echorec??
Jeff Slingluff can't be overlooked for his work on the Line 6 DL4. Josh that's a call you need to make
I had the Line 6 DL4 for a while. The only thing I really didn't like was the short looper time it has.
One trick guys use for that is to start the looper in half time. It doubles the time of the looper.
These live shows are getting really good man!
Addison is a good moderator!
Josh can you explain why my Line Six MM4 modulation pedal sounds better in front of my OD pedals ?....cheers 👍
Why is there no boss dd-4?????
"Silence YOU phone"???
Big Box Memory Man is so incredible. What's the key to that? Chip? High voltage? My 1100-TT just isn't the same? Whhhhhyyy?
Bucket brigade is basically a shift register with the clock controlled by a pot , you can build them easily with a shift register Chip
Can someone please link me to a good budget Dynamic Delay or duct delay like the one on the DL4? My old DL4 after being repaired multiple times died again. I need a unit that's good and cheap to get me by. Dynamic Deley please! Sorry I missed this!
Dear Josh, can you create a more badass pedal called "TYPO" like the typo in the intro.
Ps I really appreciated seeing the pink panther in the screen right away when I was this was a delay episode
Just ordered the 3 series delay. Because of your show🥳
No joke.
Cheers.
J. Rockett's APE is a pedal with a loop for your delay that does the Echoplex preamp and circuitry, and it's WICKED good; better than El Capistan, to my ear, but it doesn't produce delay on its own. It'd be badass, with a TC Nova Repeater.
isn't the ibanez DE-7 the first good digital emulation of analog delay?
Even today, effects manufacturers rarely come close...
“Silence, you phone!”
Zipper noise is a byproduct of low sample rates in early digital delays, the low resolution produces the stair-stepping effect as you turn the time knob. HTH
Silence you phone??
Catalinbread Adineko is a fun digital reproduction of the Oil Can delay. It ‘can’ replicate some of the quirks of the old devices with a small footprint, extended delay times, two ‘heads’ and is very usable with a lot of control over the sounds it produces. Great little preamp in it too.
"Silence you phone"
Please Do a Show on the Electra MPC effects..
I want both the cub and the lucky cat. Great video! Also, which video featured 'The Suburbs' on record time?
The very first One!
Josh, what is a GREAT delay to get for a beginner that does not mind spending more for something that I can grow with and not have to change out in 2 to 5 yrs. like atmospheric and regular delay. Thanks
Behringer vd100 I think or vd400
+1 to a Behringer unless "grow with" means gigging. In which case, maybe an EHX Canyon
Behringer VD400 is really good for it's money, Joyo Aquarius if you want to spend a bit more but still stay on the cheaper side
joyo dd real good for very cheep. Just save up a little more and get a BOSS DD7 it does every thing great ! I've had mine for 5 years. I'm not a pro but any time I'v bought a new pedal ,its not to replace that one.
+1 for EHX Canyon. Also the Nux Tape Core Deluxe which is both versatile and *very* cheap.
Fucking hell! I had the same pink panther when I was littlel. It was one of my favorite things
wow cusack and la croix ,two great boutique items from michigan . Although a couple of times I thought you were going to "water board" one of those pedals ha. Also new JHS pedal idea la croix can delay maybe a colab with Jon : )
I purchased 3 echoplexes cheap many years ago after DDL's and Analogs became the flavor of the day. I sadly didn't keep them very long. I wish I would have at least kept one.
Thank you for melting brain about the mechanical reality of the Original Echoplex!
Roland JC 120 is the classic Jazz Chorus amp, but you knew that.
