Very nice transparent overdrive. Doesn’t color your sound too much. Sounds like it’d be great for John Mayer style leads. This may be the pedal I’ve been looking for, thanks Ola!
Let's be real, we all knew the answer to this particular question before we clicked the video, but we all came here anyway to watch Ola's eyebrows reach heights not previously thought possible.
Compared to all the other videos, his expressions are pretty similar, but what made this video wonderful was those expressions, on top of the strange sounds emerging, made it seem like he was descending into a hallucination experience. Hilarious! Favorite moment: 5:04
it’s like a dance gavin dance intro riff effect and then you don’t hear it for the rest of the song but it made you think “thats pretty cool” or gets the crowd cheering in the first 20 seconds because a d v a n c e d g u I t a r
Bro put this thing in a modular synth system and you've got your bitcrusher glitchy thing to spice up your sequences. Modify it in order to receive CV, combine it eith a vocoder and a delay module and you've got a nice eurorack system
Yeah Jack already has his own pedal that he sells to the public through his Third Man Records website that sounds like the Data Corrupter. Jack's pedal is called the Mantic Flex Pedal through his brand Third Man Hardware.
@@amadeusvprozac That pedal he uses is the mantic flex that watcher zero mentioned. Justin Pearson of the locust also uses the legendary schumann PLL on his bass. PLLs FTW!
Fun fact: JD Pinkus (ex Melvins, ex Butthole Surfers) uses an Earthquaker Bit Commander pedal for his solo banjo work that was given to him by Jack White
Sounds like there's a lot of potential for SUPER grimy sludge/stoner type metal in there, that fuzz portion is monstrous, and mixing in the subharmonics it seems like it'll really live up to that Earthquaker name. Imagine it going into a full stack or split off into a bass cabinet, holy shit.
As I read this comment at 6:55, you can hear Ola playing something that sounds exactly like "And Hell Followed With". I think it's called Mara, they do a lot of the same style of affect it sounds like your band does! Definitely a great idea, especially for live applications. Thanks for spreading the knowledge!
@@AAllinsonNN It’s capable of so much more than Ola demonstrated. One mistake I see a lot of people make is that you are only supposed to use one note at a time and never more, no chords not even power chords or at least in my opinion, you might be able to do something with chords but I found a single note at a time to work best.
@@pablobonifacio8755 True, but I just wish brands like LTD would start using either graphite or GraphTech nuts. If Solar, Ibanez, and Schecter (among others) can do it, so can LTD.
Though it will never chug like a Boss HM-2, this pedal chugs in an early Melvins kind of way. To me there are endless possibilities, but get why most guitarists don't like it.
"you can mix all these voices to create an incredible salad". 😅 PRICELESS!! Man I love some of the things that he comes up with.. and the faces.. oh man..
Ola, I think this may have been the most hilarious Will It Chug ever! Sounds like the theme songs to Super Mario Bros., Zelda Halloween all wrapped up in a big 💨 lol. Lmao
Id say your the professor of chug! I have learned so much about tone from you. Part of my tone at home, is solely because of you Ola. I even have your metal pack and ir cabs on bias fx 2. I also use an RP255...which shreds....and chugs. Cheers
Fuzz, Overdrive, and Distortion all open up various drive for music variety!!! ..and the way the guitar is played This fuzz has a awesome octave sound like whitestripes rock tones!!! Velcro Fuzz is the best kind of fuzz ;)
Indeed it sounds like a simplistic standard square wave ran thru a hella ancient Zoom 9002 & shit bass cab with a broken horn while the pitch shifter is stuck on.
I would say that maybe the Fuzz sound you can get from it could serve as a layer to a heavy rythm guitar. Just a layer on the background to add body and fatness not as a doubling track.
This sounds like something Mick Thomson would use. He's definitely into weird, crazy effect like this and I can totally see him come up with really sick sounding riffs with the Data Corrupter.
That is some crazy sounding s*** there! At one point when you were fiddling around with the knobs it was making sounds like the old arcade game from the '80s robotron lol
Nick Reinhart, guitarist/singer for Tera Melos, uses the hell out of EQD pedals like this. He and Juan Alderete run a TH-cam channel called Pedals and Effects (but haven't been active in a long time since Alderete got hit by a car last year).
I think if you engage that thing on a fx loop that haves a fx mix knob and you blend it with a good chug sound could hit really hard and be unique sounding
Ever wanted to sound like a broken record? Well I might have the thing for you... WILL IT CHUG?
Keep that pedal when Nintendo calls 4 soundtracks 😎
No
Angry bees more like
The expressions on your face were priceless! Lol
Ola, that thing should have been called the 'Incredible Salad'.

I’d use this pedal for a riff. Like, just one riff. And everyone would go
“woah nice”
Same
Woah. Nice
Yeah, it is kinda like a one trick pony you can use to spice up 1 song. Well, maybe a couple, as I think it does have multiple usable settings.

The member who suggested this is a sludge-wizz...
Æ Ola is h3r3
Matt Pike used one, for end of show shenanigans
The very first sound I heard when he upped the volume reminded me of Clouds Taste Satanic's tone.
reminded me of Earth 2
"I don't know what's happening, but I LIKE it," basically summed it all up for me right there
Lol saw this comment just as he said it in the video!!
Ola's face when he turns up that third knob: WTF is this pedal?
To quote R. Lee Ermey, What the fuck is that?
@@Captain_Zero_ A jelly donut.
@@MrJam1001 jelly filled doughnuts are my favourite
Ola also hates it
Gotta love a pedal company that releases a pedal that sounds like it’s broken. In the right hands, not mine, it could do some amazing things.
I believe this is how you connect your guitar to AOL.
90% will have no idea what you’re on about lol
@@Buttface1981 ahaha ahaha ahahahahaha wow ur so funny, only 10% of everyone on the internet has heard a dial up modem AHAHAHAHAHA
Completely agree. Sounds like Mesa created the ultimate 9600baud modem that goes to 11.
@@Skoomz Bizarre. Don't let comments get to you so much, man.
@@endlesswanderer1753 i think i was super stoned that night
We used it for intro's and outros; stage noise. Twist the knobs, kill it, burst into brutality.
Same, used it on a looper between songs too, no dead noise when tuning, etc…

Please combine it with Korg Miku!!! We all need to hear those two in action together... 😂
So glad I want the only person to have this thought..
I Just love EQD pedals. The data corrupter is Just genius
Akron OH’s best!
"Im not a smart man...but i know what chug is" 😆 the look on your face dude!! This is the best episode in a while!
Everyone else: wtf is going on ? Is it broken ? It doesn't chug 😭
EQD fans: 😏😏😏
Ola just playing around with shit and having that “whoah…” face is the best.
Ola, do you consider urination a form of self-expression?
Video was released like 2 minutes ago and there's already a GOLD comment
Lmao what the fuck
what if you sample your urination and put it through metalzone
Urinate, then drink it and then let us know.
@@vkabanbest3343 what an I not getting here
I can already foresee a song in his next solo album made exclusively with this pedal.
Also, this sounds like a tilted NES cartridge.
this sounds like the perfect thing if you want to put together a Nintendo-core/chiptune band.
I just love the confused facial expressions. Absolutely hilarious! So glad I found your channel, Ola!!
Sounds like something the Melvins would use. King Buzzo ftw.
You are spot on. !!! Wow. The git guy in the Melvins,called in guitar on crack! Or anyone can pay guitar !
Buzzo actually demoed it in one of the Earthquaker first impressions videos
Ola: "That's cool" Guitar: "Braawhgh"
sounds like some retro game metal or something
Pretty tasty clean on that amp.
I've had this pedal since it released...it's fun as hell.
Ola is a good salesman.. He made me buy a solar.. And now i think im kinda regretting it
Why ???? as I was thinking of buying one
@@Combustion47 dont get me wrong, i love my solar but there's A LOT of guitar companies upping the game with metal guitars right now

Is this our first absolute “no” for will it chug?
There’s been some lack luster ones but this…
This was a new kind of fun.
I’ve never laughed so much during Ola’s videos. And I laugh a lot during his videos
Sounds like a broken fuzz . Check the mesa head if it caught corona 😂
Bengong haha
Though it will never chug like a Boss HM-2, this pedal chugs in an early Melvins kind of way. To me there are endless possibilities, but get why most guitarists don't like it.
The pedal looks cool i realy like the Design
yea just design cool i agree
Pretty versatile pedal.... Its like a doomy Super Nintendo on a weird acid trip ...... I love it....\m/
They should of called this pedal "The Tonal Fart Corruptor"
Ola was clearly having fun I already see him writing stoner doom metal inspired songs with this pedal
I think Lou Reed made a entire album that
Had this sort of effect.
One song called the amine beta ring?
"you can mix all these voices to create an incredible salad". 😅 PRICELESS!! Man I love some of the things that he comes up with.. and the faces.. oh man..

Was the pedal made from a chip tuned atari 2600?
That oscillator thing is so beautiful
This is probably my favorite will it chug video
Use it on a second amp with a metal ass setup on the unscrewed side. I use it all the time.
Was waiting for you to scream "ITS ALIVE!!!!" lmfao
Fuzz, Overdrive, and Distortion all open up various drive for music variety!!! ..and the way the guitar is played
This fuzz has a awesome octave sound like whitestripes rock tones!!!
Velcro Fuzz is the best kind of fuzz ;)
Listening to that with headphones was a trip
The sound effect at 7:00 sounds like the effect dimebag used in strength beyond strength
So true
2:50 the faces lmaoooo
Indeed it sounds like a simplistic standard square wave ran thru a hella ancient Zoom 9002 & shit bass cab with a broken horn while the pitch shifter is stuck on.
Not knowing exactly what a pedal is, is exactly the way I approach pedals
This was so hilarious to watch at 0430 in the morning.
Ola "That's cool!"
Guitar "rwAAAAAAGGGHHH"
I died, ty 🤣
@@MeOwOgai It reminds me of those Mr Bubz videos... I GOT YOU ON FILM, Mr Bubz: GRAAAAAAHHHHHH

I’m satisfied
I thought I was getting some 8bit tunes here dude
And that’s exactly what I got, this thing is Nintendo goodness!
His face in this video perfectly sums up every product from Earthquaker that I've played or seen demoed.
6:35 slayer solos
The facial expressions are priceless OLa, genuine bewilderment at some of those sounds. Very entertaining and educational. Subscribed
Love earthquaker, great pedals. This kinda does the talkbox sound with out having to have a hose in your mouth.
Peace and stay safe
He broke the internet with the Data Corrupter haha. Reminds me of 16-bit videogames
I'm glad this is not on the Pedal frenzy section, masterpiece video
5:04
Ola: That's cool
CORRUPTER: ALIEN FART
6:21 remind me the old G.I Joe's backpacks !
The sound at 7:14 reminds me of the car speeding up in Road Fighter 😂
I'd love to see a Solar ML "inspired by" Dime. Mmm
I love weird pedals... it's like my pitchfork/monosynth/superfuzz/Delay experiments...
2:36 😂 that face. It looks like you're realizing, contemplating what that thing really is and what you've gotten involved with.
"Let's start with the square" *instant doom tones* So when can we look for your name in the credits of a Castlevania game, Ola?
This sounds like something Mick Thomson would use. He's definitely into weird, crazy effect like this and I can totally see him come up with really sick sounding riffs with the Data Corrupter.
For a while it almost sounded like a SID from C64...
3:18 Obituary right there!!!
At 4:46, I'm sure Agata of Melt Banana would love to have this in his arsenal.
hhahahaha. Ola's face at 2:28 is questioning his entire life choices up to this point. Thanks for the fun video
It's like Alien Metal
I can picture Dimebag making some shit happen with that there sound box... 😆
I'm terrible at guitar and dont have much experience with pedals, but my god I want this.
Sounds like someone came onstage and lit your stuff on fire. 10/10 fuzz, would fuzz again.
Wow i love this pedal because this pedal can use some kind of experimental thing to use to create some weird sounds
I can't 😆 Can't live without Ola man.
That is some crazy sounding s*** there! At one point when you were fiddling around with the knobs it was making sounds like the old arcade game from the '80s robotron lol
this pedal sounds like Mattias Ia Eklundh...i love it!
Sounds like an octave and a phaser at the same time @3:03 - Data Corrupter aka the ass salad/R2D2 simulator
Tha BEST nonchugging pedal I've ever heard! WMD Geiger Counter should be the next, thanks a lot of fun, mr. Ola!

For a second I closed my eyes and it sounded like you were playing Yar's Revenge!
What a colossal piece of "buuurp"..
Sounds like the spookiest acid trip
The beginning had some Purple Hill Witch vibes going on.
"I don't know what's happening but I like it"
Seems like a good pedal to have and mess with when at a creative block, just to stray from the norm
It uses a pll to catch the notes, so shredding may sound a little wonky 😮
I'm an electronic producer and I want one for my Moog Sub Phatty and Korg MS-20.
This plus the Korg Miku pedal for the ultimate lead tone
I love when Ola makes that constipation face
Ola is god
All Father
Nah, just a good dude.
I think Ola should make an appearance at the next Earthquaker Day
imagine this on a bass
I don't watch the videos anymore (and I'm no longer a subscriber), except for the 'Will it chug' videos, which are really great. Thank you.
