@@AmbientEndeavors I checked you out. Very nice. Kind of has a Middle Eastern feel to it. Just out of curiosity, why that direction? Rock is truly the beaten path so it's always good to hear something different! I have been playing over 50 years, my favorite being jazz fusion/improv but I play all styles.
That bitcrusher/lofi effect was absolutely gorgeous. Joyo really is the best of the budget brands. Their cab-sim is also so fantastic at a great price point. Thanks for highlighting their devices!
That pedal sounds amazing. I also nearly fell asleep watching this, because this is what I hear in my dreams. Excellent work! Also, screw you, I now need to buy a pedal!!
Sweet demo! Nice descriptions and enough examples to get a clear idea of what you can do in each setting. I own an Aquarius and still learned a few things and got some new ideas. Thanks!
I haven't used pedals for years. I saw the NuX Roctary and listened to a lot of vids before purchasing it. It's a great modulation, I think better than the Roto-Vibe. And around the same time, I saw a bunch of distortion effects. I mainly use a Seymour Duncan Twin Tube, but it's nice to have other things that sound a little different. I heard the Joyo California and really liked so got one. That made me look at other Joyo products. Just a few weeks ago, I saw someone talking about the Joyo Vision. I ended up getting one since it has a lot more to offer than the Roctary. While I was looking at it, I saw the Aquarius and ran into your video. I use an Eventide Timefactor but your video made me really interested in the Aquarius. The time factor is a great pedal, but I am not really keen on the presets and you have to go in and fudge with them to find what you want. The Aquarius seems to have taken the best of delay and saved you time tuning in those sounds. Thanks for the video, Ambient Endeavors. I like that you played a clean guitar and not a distorted guitar so you could hear the clarity of the Joyo. My next purchase!
Glad you found it helpful! Yeah the Eventide stuff is great but deep in terms of controls and menus. Aquarius is straightforward, versatile and still sounds really good.
@@AmbientEndeavors not to mention, the pedals look prestigious, expensive and boutique as fuck. these chinese brands are really uping their game while being relatively accessible.
@@AmbientEndeavors is there a tremolo you might recommend? Budget friendly mostly because I can't see dropping a large chunk of change on a tremolo pedal. I was gonna save and drop a large amount on the delay but then I saw the Aquarius and looked up some reviews.
I was deciding between this one and the NUX Time Core, which also looks and sounds great. But the NUX has two stereo modes which would be useless to me. The Galaxy mode on here sounds great! Thanks!

Just bought this to pair with my joyo atmosphere..and my joyo OD..soon my pedal board may well be all joyo..they are the best kept secret in the pedal biz
@@Stutter-Step sounds like we got ourselves a metal man! Dude the aquarius sounds so good..even a little delay on the OD and distortion..it would go a long way especially on lead riffs..I'm sure you know all that, I just love gear talk
Just sold mine in exchange for elector harmonix canyons delay pedal and my joyo atmosphere for an e.harmonix oceans 11 reverb. But still these pedals punch way above their wait..just careful not to string to many together, the sound begins to muddy heavily and you lose the main trail
Thanks! Well, kind of apples and oranges. If you want a compact pedal and don't need tap tempo or stereo, the Aquarius sounds great. The D-Seed II gives you stereo ping pong option and tap tempo which adds versatility. I'd say the actual delay tones are very similar between the two. Hope this helps!
What is the maximum delay time? Just for the delay effects, not the looper. I have the Donner Yellow Fall delay but it only does a 620ms delay max. I'm looking for a nice slow delay.
I don't know what to buy, if this pedal or the Gauss Delay from TC Electronic. This one has more options and a looper, byt the TC Electronic one nails the tape delay tone. (I would use delay mostly to play The Police and The Smiths songs) Which one should it buy?
A tough call! I love the option of having a looper, so that would sell me on this one. Depends on how that useful it is to you. If you're mainly wanting *the* delay tones, perhaps the other one is better suited.
@@AmbientEndeavors I finally decided to buy the Joyo Aquarius. The TC electronic tape echo isn't that much different from the Joyo one and I guess that for the extra money getting a looper and other types of delay is totally worth it. Thanks!
@@arnauvila2884 I am actually sad I bought the TCE Gauss tape echo, theres a noticeable volume drop when turning it on, that had I known it was a common problem I would have just gotten this. I got sucked into the hype of all the vids covering it, hell I didnt notice the drop until like a week later. Glad you went with the Joyo!
It's more than enough for how I use loopers. I generally just capture an 8 bar or so phrase and layer on top. Really depends on how you're planning on using it.
Oh, forgot to add, your video almost put me to sleep. Not that it's boring, just very relaxing.

I legit just fell asleep and dropped my phone on my face, so there’s that…
Love how the Atmosphere reverb casually sits in the back there, like brothers letting each other take turns under the stage light.
Beautiful analogy :-)
That bitcrusher/lofi effect was absolutely gorgeous. Joyo really is the best of the budget brands. Their cab-sim is also so fantastic at a great price point. Thanks for highlighting their devices!
thanks for watching!
That analog and reverse modes seem sound too good to be in that price range. Nice.
Agreed! I was impressed with both of those too. The degradation and character of the analog is more nuanced than you usually see from a budget delay.
i was just looking for a pedal review but this is a lovely video with a beautiful soundtrack! perfect demo and descriptions 🤝🏼
thanks for watching! Lots more music on the channel :D
That pedal sounds amazing.
I also nearly fell asleep watching this, because this is what I hear in my dreams.
Excellent work!
Also, screw you, I now need to buy a pedal!!
Haha thanks Tim! If you have trouble sleeping, I have a bunch of music on Spotify as well ;)
Love the slow chords for test a delay! a Great tone! amazing pedal. Greetings!
Thanks a lot! Hope you're well!
Sweet demo! Nice descriptions and enough examples to get a clear idea of what you can do in each setting. I own an Aquarius and still learned a few things and got some new ideas. Thanks!
Thanks for watching and for the kind words!
Amazing demo! I wish every pedal I'm interested in had a demo made by you.
thanks! haha, what pedal(s) are you looking at? maybe I can make it happen ;)
@@AmbientEndeavors I would love new EHX big muff series shootout, and also the shootout of that affordable TC Electronic range
@@AmbientEndeavors also, though not really feasible, smallsound/bigsound team awesome fuzz machine and pretty years

man, this sounds SOOOO good
definitely some good sounds in here!
@@AmbientEndeavors not to mention, the pedals look prestigious, expensive and boutique as fuck. these chinese brands are really uping their game while being relatively accessible.
Imagine a pedal that has chorus, tremolo, flanger, and alien effects on it but only delays...like a dream
I really enjoyed this demo, thanks very much for taking the time to do this. My favorite was the tape.
Hey thanks! Glad you found it helpful. I love the tape mode as well, I was impressed by that particular one.
Ordered mine last night. Should be here sometime today. Hopefully sooner than later. Delay is basically the only thing missing from my board.
exciting! Hope you enjoy it!

I'm in love with this pedal
glad you're loving it!
Very nice demo and great playing man. I bought this pedal half way through the video
love it! Hope you enjoy your new pedal :)
How do you like then pedal now ,Ben?
@@jokinmyass9446 It's amazing. Still on my pedal board and works fantastic
Lovely playing, mesmeric sound, very nice sounding pedal, thanku
Many thanks! appreciate you taking the time to watch :)
not a bad sounding delay. great demo work as well man, love the intro.
thanks man :-)
Beautiful demo.
thanks so much! appreciate you watching and glad you found it useful.
Amazing demos on this channel, thank you
thanks for checking it out!
I have this pedal and love it more because of your video thanks for sharing

Amazing review, thank you 🤗👏
Thanks for watching!
Awesome review.
thanks ! Glad you enjoyed it.
Just bought this to pair with my joyo atmosphere..and my joyo OD..soon my pedal board may well be all joyo..they are the best kept secret in the pedal biz
Dude me too, like I have 4 joyo pedals and my board is gonna be all joyo soon
@@Stutter-Step right? They have some shitty stuff for sure, but they also have some of my absolute favorites.
@@Stutter-Step what ones do you have?
@@prisonmike4971 UZI, Dark flame, splinter, and I think imma be the Aquarius soon
@@Stutter-Step sounds like we got ourselves a metal man! Dude the aquarius sounds so good..even a little delay on the OD and distortion..it would go a long way especially on lead riffs..I'm sure you know all that, I just love gear talk
Hola, gran video. Una consulta, has probado el Aquarius junto al Atmosphere? Sería bueno escucharlos interactuando. Gracias, saludos.
can it do like the 8th note delay type thing? like for worship bands?
Bro i loved your Joyo Reviews.
BTW does the tap tempo function works in all modes?
Just sold mine in exchange for elector harmonix canyons delay pedal and my joyo atmosphere for an e.harmonix oceans 11 reverb. But still these pedals punch way above their wait..just careful not to string to many together, the sound begins to muddy heavily and you lose the main trail
Really Nice..your guitar tone is fabulous, what amp are you using?
Thanks for this 🙏
Beautiful playing, mate! Just a quick question, Joyo Aquarius or D-Seed II?
Thanks! Well, kind of apples and oranges. If you want a compact pedal and don't need tap tempo or stereo, the Aquarius sounds great. The D-Seed II gives you stereo ping pong option and tap tempo which adds versatility. I'd say the actual delay tones are very similar between the two. Hope this helps!
@@AmbientEndeavors fyi the aquarius has tap tempo
4:00 reversal
I LOVE IT I LOVE IT
it's a really fun little pedal! what are some of your favorite sounds in it?
@@AmbientEndeavors i like to make some shoegaze tones
@@AmbientEndeavors good news, i've just buy one!
I think this is the same pedal as the Ammoon Pockecho.
you might be right.
What is the maximum delay time? Just for the delay effects, not the looper. I have the Donner Yellow Fall delay but it only does a 620ms delay max. I'm looking for a nice slow delay.

@@jrockkai I have the NuX Tape Core Deluxe. Great tape delay simulation.
This is the only pedal I’ve seen where you can use looper simultaneously with the effects!! Sold!
When I turn this and distortion together I hear the Ticking of the delay even when I'm not playing anything. Is it natural? Thanks.
Can I change hear divisions for repeats?
To put for example dotted eight notes?
I wonder if this and the D-Seed II use the same algorithms.
does it work well running it in front of the amp? (no fx loop)
atmosphere or this cant decide delay or verb
tough question! kinda depends on what you're trying to do, your existing rig, etc.
Damn i cant decide between this and D Seed II, does one have better quality of effects or are they the same?
it's kinda reverb in some way thanks for this video =)
Wow this sounds like a delay 5x its price
how does this compare to the tc electronics flashback 2?
0:41 did you just dial an dotted eighth note?
What is better ? Joyo aquarius or joyo D- seed 2?
Can you do delay and loop at same time?
I got one of these... it's terrible. Returned it. The looper is a great feature but the loops sound stinks.
Can you save two presets?
Esse pedal poderia ser usado com violão aço ou naylon ?
com certeza!
does it trail when you turn it off?
Would you recommend this over joyo d seed 2?
Does it go full wet?
is a 5 minutes looper enough?
It's more than enough for how I use loopers. I generally just capture an 8 bar or so phrase and layer on top. Really depends on how you're planning on using it.
does it trail?
where we're going we don't need trails.
..honestly can't remember if this one has trails or not.
777th like!
