Thanks for checking out the M-EQ DRIVER!
Great to hear you having fun with it, it has quickly become an office favourite here
Yeah, I’ve been eyeing that one.
I use a Midphoria, by Magnetic Effects, which is a Mid Boost pedal. It can do clean transparent boost, but it has low and high mid channels, with a wide range on each, thst is great for solos, after a Fuzz Face, or especially really scooped fuzzes. I use it after all my dirt, except one other boost pedal, that I stack to do the cocked wah sound.
The origin is more of a versatile gain pedal, than just a boost, similar to how a Treble Booster, isn’t just a treble boost.
Hey, Origin. I LOVE may Cali76, an indispensable pedal. And then you go and produce this! During the demo, I wondered where best to place it. Presently, I go from guitar to fuzz to Kingsley Jester to Cali76 and then all remaining drives, delay, reverb after that. Where are players finding they like to order it? I do love a studio sound and love to experiment with studio-modeled plug-ins in the DAW, including EQ, compression and reverbs. Looks like you have a very fine pedal here. -G
Damn fine pedal that guys!!
Key points:

16:21 - Thoughts on the MK2 (17:18 - bias sounds)
18:24 - Origin Effects M-EQ Driver intro (21:19 - sounds) (23:22 - searching for Klon sounds)
24:56 - Thoughts on the M-EQ so far, and "cocked wah" sounds (28:19 - more thoughts)
29:48 - M-EQ with the adapter switch (33:04 - thoughts)
35:44 - Oto Machines BIM intro (38:44 - sounds) (40:32 - if you don't have a switcher? Is it stereo?)
41:50 - Is that an LED matrix? Why!?
43:16 - BIM with the MK2
44:40 - Thoughts on the BIM
45:59 - Closing address, and Dan plays us out
awesome thanks!
Hey Dan and Mick, thank you so much for featuring the MkII. Looks like you both enjoyed it! And Dan, thought you might like the Big Muff ;) great stuff, thank you again!
Nice work Matt; telling myself I don't neeeeed another bender
@@simonfreer9076 Yeah I tell myself things like that all the time, myself is an idiot tho and I don't really listen to him :P
Really nice, I just ordered another Tone Bender from Seeker Electronics to scratch the itch of wanting a MK1, but I think I might need one of your MKII's to go with my others, can't help myself when it comes to Tone Benders.
@@Zoso_1990 well, I mean, I could try talk you out of it right? but...... 😁 I would be a rubbish sales man!
I do love an NPD, takes TPS back to basics! I love a deep dive but ultimately we’re all here for lovely pedals 😊
The BIM sounds amazing. Perhaps you should have a show on the BIM and the BAM together because that reverb is bloody incredible.
They have three in this series.
One seemed similar to that Flat V pedal, that was just released by Poly. The OTO delay and reverb, seem to have capabilities like the Poly Beebo, as well, using different layouts, but the OTO stuff, is $600 a pedal.
The Beebo does multi effects in a chain or parallel. The Flat V has various tone shaping abilities and several modulation effects, with presets, so I’m just wondering how much more the OTO can do.
@@CorbCorbin yeah I have a beebo which is great but I am not a fan of the algo reverb on it. I like Lexicon style reverbs so I love the Meris stuff and the BAM is meant to be very similar to the original 224 so would be nice to see that particularly.
Thanks guys for the Bim presentation. I Always thought It was a "pedal" exclusive for synths.
I'm glad you guys exist
Sometimes Dan’s mind and guitar ability just make my day! “see how fast you can turn that rate up?”…(proceeds to appropriately jam with an inappropriate sound)! Waaay to go Dan 👏! Yes
I think I’d enjoy watching you chaps do some stuff other than try out guitar pedals, maybe tasting craft beer or shopping for leather jackets or playing with some puppies. 🤔
Funny I was just watching Sunn-o)))))) rig rundown and Greg Anderson uses the too machine
Oof - that M-EQ driver is amazing. First Origin pedal that's really piqued my interest.
You guys need to find a really cool modular synth person and have them on the show to talk about the way they interface with pedals and effects!
WOW, that Bim sounds more like a well-maintained tape echo than any other device I've heard. It's gotta have something to do with the compander: the edges and attack of every note have the same kind of silvery "pling" you get from a Space Echo or Echoplex, but no harshness, just this magical definition
Agreed. I was trying to talk myself in to how a great tape echo could capture it but the BIM has that "it factor" which makes it so unique.
I was going to sell my lightspeed and southland for the EQ driver and revival drive. Then I realised I was just putting myself in financial ruin lol.
Something wonderful about you two making as much chaotic noise as possible at then end. Mick’s face as he went in for the fuzz…. Had to with Dan’s tee
Mick's playing on the gold top in to the tonebender - holy smokes!
Did you hear the fart? It’s at 15:37 I think.
Edit to add: micks playing was fantastic, it’s just a transient bass note at the end that was hilarious.
Update, there was no VCQ as Dan fell down a delay rabbit hole ;)
So, half an hour in, Mick sets all knobs at two o'clock, and it sounds amazing..... Who would've thought ;-)
Great to hear the horn back again - I've missed it - love the M-EQ
42.30mins…..Poly Effects HQ: “We’ll just send the Flat V to Dan, then, eh.”
Definitely should do an Oto Machines episode! Have been interested in the BAM for some time now, but scared away by the line-level work around.
please do an episode on phasers!!!
Great show! I really like the old fashioned pedal review shows! Btw, could you get Jesse Davey in your show to talk about his pedals?
loved that synth one. you guys should or could get more crazy!!! sometimes?
the one portion with the lethargy was clearly blues for robots
This exchange made me laugh way more than it should have.
Mick - They haven't called it kHz. What's the old name for kHz?
Dan - 1,000 Hz. (said as deadpan as possible)
Genuinely good work as always gentleman. Thanks!
27:20 Beautiful playing again from Dan.
The cream trilby, butterscotch tele and this classical run has a strong Eugene destroying Jack Butler Crossroads vibe.
That Oto Machines definitely has that old school Lexicon rack vibe.
Micks superhero idea was literally just ant-man 😂
I laughed out loud when Mick said the cool kids will like decoding the LEDs blinking out Morse code on the Bim...Brilliantly great humor....and true. Regardless of the interface its a great sounding delay.
Edddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That M-EQ Driver sounds epic when it's cranked.
Ah, Mick, fascinating to see how you guys use the M-EQ! I was kind of flummoxed by it at first, but now I'm running it right after my wah and tuner, pre-gain stages, and it's completely solved the problem of drives, distortions, and fuzzes hollowing out when they hit a scoopy clean channel. Whatever the cleans lose, I can put back into the drive sounds with the M-EQ, and it adds 3 new tones to every gain stage I've got - 800 Hz is "Mesa/Boogie mid" for me, 1k reminds me of the mids in a Vox, and 1.3k gets that Marshall bite, so I can punch each of those frequencies into more gain on any pedal, without sacrificing all of the second pedal's character. FINALLY I can use the same pedalboard with nearly any amp! Thank ye Lord for TPS lessons on gain stacking.
48:12 - When Mr T hits the drive, Dan once again shows his talent for being taken away by the sound.
I love your flights of fancy, Dan - bravo Maestro!
Liking the Origin M, plus it seems less fiddley than the Revival Drive. re the BIM, its a delay, so I'll have to try it.👍
If I ever get the chance to dress the set of a spaceship interior for a Marvel movie, I’m sneaking the Lethargy into the control panel.
If you have the dreadbox disorder fuzz, you can use an LFO on a synth into the filter cv and crank the speed up and tune the filter frequency to match your guitar. It gets crazy!
The phaser was fine enough, but the other three pedals today REALLY surprised me! Fantastic sounds today!
Time for that pedal show once again! Yes, my day just got better! 🎉❤
Hahah 🤣 🔥 @15:59 - GET IN! Awesome
Would love to see you guys review some products from Radial Engineering. They cut back on their “guitar pedals”. But have always been AMAZING. Maybe their “HDI”?
Oto Machines Bim is wonderful, could you please do an A/B with a BOSS DD3?
I hope folks are watching these. I never understood why folks didn’t go with the old format.
wow that M-EQ driver is amazing the versatility is unreal am I going to buy another over drive pedal is that what just happened
Oh, my, that Lethargy was making me feel seasick right off the bat, and I was sitting in a chair in my house. Thankfully, you dialled it back and I didn't have to go for the chunder bucket. 🤢
Have you guys seen Emily Hopkins' TH-cam channel. It's TPS for harpists. And she's hilarious
It's quite beside the point but nevermind: rejoice, for the Name Drop Horn lives! I've got a few TPS shirts already but would definitely be keen for a silly name drop horn one!
Yes it's Blimmin' 'eck!
Dan, that was some powerfully erotic guitar playing.
Hahahah!! Have never been accused of that before 🤣😂 cheers mate 🤗👍
@@ThatPedalShow I tells it like I sees it
Otto Machines BIM. Just because they can, doesn’t mean they should. Very nice complicated chaos in a box. 🤷♂️ None the less, glad you featured it!
Always wanted one of those OTO biscuits. There are a lot of 32bit ADC/DAC available from ESS and AKM now. But the really good stuff was the multibit units, especially from Philips. Like the TDA1541A, TDA1543 and the TDA1387T... but these are all 16bits. All the new stuff is sigma delta. Display modulate and effect ADC/DAC chips.
Great show thanks! Gordon
just bought a Boss Dyna Drive just for the dynamics feature, just loove dynamics in a pedal! ( Boss OD-3, Mad Prof Simble, DOD Looking Glass...)😎😎
Hello, drummer here (sorry). If you’re into the OTO stuff I would recommend checking out the BOUM. Sonic mangling and destruction of the highest order. Comp, dirt, filtering… very very good.
Coffee is ready. Perfect timing, yet again.
Show always starts Friday at 7am on the east coast of the US. I guess it’s noon in the UK? Either way, 7am is perfect for me, like you said, coffee is on and so is my amp.
Hi Guys! Question, have you ever thought about having Justin of Justin Guitar on the show? It might be a stretch but his service, and the love of sharing music that is inherent in it, has been pivotal to my journey, just like this show. I have found myself encouraged and educated by TPS, on a regular basis, and I feel so similarly grateful about JG. Anywho, thanks for another great show.
Aha! That Oto delay is really neat. Is that color scheme a nod to the old Digitech RDS rackmount delays?
Am I the only one who finds it weird that TPS doesn’t have any content on the LPB-1?
I thought we were going to hear Mistreated there (live Rainbow version) right at the beginning there...
Jazz Hands! 🙌
I'm really impressed by the 1st 3 and will be definitely getting the Mk2 and the M-EQ. I'm considering the phaser, but I already have 2. The delay is good, but my needs are very basic
Lots of good stuff on today. However, that M-EQ...that thing may be the best "not another JAFOD" pedal I've heard. Desperate to hear it into a driven amp, that thing moved the needle for me for sure. Epic little box.
I guess Mr Goliath doesn’t want to sell anything - can’t find any reference to that pedal
On his website. Sounds blimming stupendous though
Its certainly there my man
And thanks :D (it was under shop, which I've renamed to products, hope that helps)
Found it, ordered it. You call it the Tonebender. They called it the Mk2 - it’s both!
Did Mick say he wanted more knobs on the Origin?! That's not like him! 😁 I know what you mean re the low end on the Pultec, I often use to it add warmth when I'm mastering tracks 👌
That's funny I had that clicking sound on my golden reverberator. I had to buy the gig rig power supply cause I had too many high needs pedals on my board. My Phoenix could not handle the load! So far so good with Dan's stuff though. thank you
Speaking of low-bit digital delay, I just took my 8-bit DigiTech PDS 1002 off of my board after I recorded and compared background noise with different combinations of pedals and found it to be a significant contributor.
The ME-Q driver looks fascinating! Spaceman makes an eq pedal called The Equinox which has the interleaved low cut/boost from the Pultec. I can imagine they’d be epic together.
"You know you wear bad earphones when you see someone is turning knobs from 1 - 10 and nothing changes on the sound" 🙉
I too am a fan of the MKII Tonebender circuit. I have more that a dozen different fuzz pedals of various types. The one that is on my pedalboard is a Solid Gold FX Rosie, which is a buffer MKII. It has enough mid cut to be heard in a two guitar band during a solo. Gigging, I am using various Reverend guitars with different pickups, and at least the Rosie works well with various styles of pickups also.
Mick on the MKII ... faint sounds of Hocus Pocus by Focus? Great sounds all around this list!
So ready for this weeks show. Taken delivery of a new Gibson Murphy Lab 63 SG Custom (Les Paul), which has been glued to my hands. As a single coil guy mainly, “what would TPS do?” Is a question I’ve asked myself while redialling in the amp.
Get outta town! Coool. Well, there /might// be a Murphy Lab 64 SG turning up at TPS Towers, so watch this space!
@@ThatPedalShow I’m a custodian, not an owner, but it will be living with me. I look forward to hearing the tones you get with yours! I’ll be taking notes.
You had me at OTA Phaser. Have to say, I have never got on well with fuzz but the MkII is superb. And the Delay... yikes... I need that in my life.
Awesome, that MKII sounded epic.
Very fun NPD, lads. Always interesting. Just when I thought it was possible to stand pat on the pedalboard, the M-EQ Driver appears. Will wait to see it in That Pedal Shop but what an interesting pedal, especially for players who love to dabble with vintage gear plug-ins in the DAW. Beautiful playing, both of you, throughout.
Don’t really like the clicks on the lethrogy pedal. I really like the small stone. Probably my favorite phaser.
Right around 15:26 was kind of cool, Dan was playing some riff that had a descending Bass and Mick was lowering the knob on the left
U guys are gona have to just come to terms with the fact tht u were both on fire today .
Some company in England needs to put out a delay called Naughty Bits.
Love the Chris Stapleton shout out! If you haven’t heard his cover of “Nothing Else Matters,” it is unbelievable and the solo at the end is 🔥🔥☄️
Would love to see the EQ Driver going into other OD pedals! Sounds great on its own. Imagine stacked. 😮
Opened a beer and watched that - opened another for the outro jam! It's all great today, but man that MEQ is crazy good
What a delightful collection, gents! I can't get over how good the MkII is, especially since I spent my first 20 years as a guitarist not really liking fuzz and in the last two years it's become one of my favourite sounds.
Bim certainly has the "Lexicon" PCM-42/60 homage going on...right down to the paint job on the box
Cool outro dan, I think the boys fro IDELS will like that Oto
The Origin M-EQ sounded great!
I can’t wait for the fuzz with univibe show and the delay show, I’d love to see Dan with this and other more crazy delays.
Yes just got a new univibe and fuzz and need some pointers
9:50 ooh. Approaching the chainsaw tremolo ring Mod mbv thing. I’m sold.
Hahahahahah I love it! Those effects at the end were absurd. Can tell you guys are having a bit of fun there.
Great show today Guys, but I still can’t stand Phaser pedals.
Have you ever reviewed the Hot Cake from Crowther? It’s so good.
Dan’s had one since they came out and LOVES it!
Wow, this was just a show among shows. All of these are next level kind of pedals - and very inspiring. Great stuff, Leghands!
At 27min the "cocked wah" tone actually makes the tele sound lovely and full 👌
More like around 15:20 and it was the knob on the right, Jesus
Hope you will review the Poly Josh Smith Flat V soon.
Cheers!
Well, Mick, always good to hear a Ricky Nelson baseline played as a rock riff!!! Great playing and great show as always. Dan keep the experimental stuff on the show for us shoe gazers.
Is the Bim a reference to James May's Our Man In Japan series?
Love the Origin pedal. Some really great tones to be had from it. The Bim needs its own show where we learn how to control it to make it usable in a typical pedal board. Thanks as always.
Dan Gilmour, David's little brother.
Mick! I just got to the part where you’re shredding up pretty great on that gold top through the fuzz box. At the 15:35 mark you play a pretty sweet lick and right at the end the fuzz box let’s out a straight fart. Probably right at 15:39. I thought it was hilarious, but then again I have the sense of humor of a 5 year old.
I’m right with you! Farting will ALWAYS be funny. :0)
Fun show guys- I'm always down for a straight forward look at some new pedals!
Thanks guys, another pleasant stroll through toneland. Top wig out outro. :)
Oh man that ending just got more and more epic by the second! What a killer line up of pedals!
