Ambient Guitar Gear Review - Electro-Harmonix (EHX) Canyon Delay & Looper 

Nice to see Ser Davos has taken up guitar

You are like the Bob Ross of music. Love all your work

I think this pedal ships standard with an ounce of Purple Kush.

My wife has never asked me to restart a gear review video, so it came as a shock when she told me to hit replay on this one! Great demo, I have one on the way now. Subbed.

Best Canyon review by far! You are the only reviewer who gets the musical possibilities of S/H mode and the secondary functions. I dig your style. This review really makes me want a Canyon!

Great demonstration of what this pedal can do. Thank you for putting the time in to share this with us. Sounds terrific!

Thank you Davos Seaworth

Great video and great playing. I loved what you did with the sample and hold function.

This pedal is nothing short of amazing. It is one of the best delay pedals I have ever used. The shimmer delay effect is so much fun to play around with

Congrats for the best demo of this lovely. A picture of the knobs on each setting would be a great help

I’ve had this pedal for 2 years and never figured out how to use it until now.. thank you so much

great demo. I learned alot more about this pedal now! It's got so many features

Love your reviews and your sound. Motivated me to pick up my guitar again. Thank you!

You have so much soul in your playing. I could genuinely listen to this all day. Superb my friend.

What a lovely guitar player

That was more soothing than my meditation class. Great work.

Great demo, I bought one of these used after watching. Nice playing too, very authentic ... I'm a fan of improv like this

Don't normally leave comments but I've waited months to buy this now I have the cash and it's in stock I'm sold ...that's the best vid I've seen Cheers!

11:45...beautiful, man. Thank you for this lovely playing & creativity.

Only halfway into the video and man, do you make impeccable videos.

You play the most captivating original music I've ever heard.

Came for a demo, stayed for the playing! Awesome jams dude. I want this pedal even more now xD.

As someone who started messing around with MIDI in the 80's, I am amazed at what you can get for the money these days!

Always impressive, love the work you put into your vids! Great pedal too 😎

Pretty impressive lil pedal. Great demo as always!

Good stuff man. Love your demos.

Just picked up this pedal as a part of getting back into playing. Your playing in this video is really really interesting and emotional. Bravo!

This has got to be the most chill dude ever

Just got this pedal, and oh I'm modulating too, my man Thanks for the great review!

Might be the first PRS shaped guitar I actually like the look of This really is a fantastic demo by the way. Thanks for playing stuff that would actually fit into a modern record. I think a lot of these newer delay pedals have functions that weren't around before so the way you play really show's off the Canyons potential!

I've seen several of your videos. As a fan of ambiant sound, I have to say you play some very cool stuff. For it to be a small pedal,it really carries alot of sound. Great video.

Bought this today. Lots of tasty features squeezed into one box. Tap tempo is a fantastic addition, along with secondary function feature.

Just bought this pedal. Tremendous video. Thank you!

great demo and playing, you really nailed some great sounds. I could hear a lot of sounds that I love in Mogwai. I hope you don't mind but I have one suggestion, don't know how hard it would be to do but it would be great to see the settings on the pedal like in proguitarshop demos. It would really help get some of those sounds. Anyway, great stuff, I'm really enjoying your videos!

Great demo! I love the octave mode. :)

Okay, you sold me. Great demo!

Wonderful demo, thank you!

Don’t know how you did it, but my stomach growled and I heard it go through the delay. That thing is amazing!

Boy I sure need to practice that hybrid picking stuff. Ultra cool.

Great demo.... Bought this pedal the other day, lots to explore. Enjoyed your exploration of it. If you haven’t already, you should demo the Ocean’s11 pedal, another EHX gem.

Brilliant review, as usual :)

Wow, that shimmer.

Love this guy! you are a inspiration brother!

Nice demo. Glad you are using your PRS 277. I have the same guitar, and enjoy hearing you play / create new sounds and effects with it. Thanks for making the demo

This man can create miracles even with low-quality delay or reverb pedals. He knows how to use a pedal in efficient ways.

you are a wonderful video blogger, thank you so much for your posts Sir!!

Love the use of double stops.

Man - when you star using the looper...that is some awesome sound. keep up the good work friend!

I gotta get me one of these. Merely for the reverse and shimmer effects.

Thinking about snagging one of these next week, been messing with one for a few days in store.

que buen video, me encanto... ahora quiero ese pedal!!!!

THAT SONG AT THE END WAS MASTERFUL!

Had one for about a week. Awesome little toy.

That PRS Baritone is so gorgeous

That was one of the best demo vids I've seen in awhile. The device really compliments your style which in turn highlighted the potential of the pedal. After hearing this demo I'm going to have to reconsider my next pedal choice. With only enough cash for one pedal the choice better be the correct on. The combination of 'verb and delay on this EH makes it a strong contender for my style which is based mostly around evolving extended jazz chord voicings. Also really dug the little quip at the first, what was it. . . . "you may be modulated.. . ." or something like that. . . hilarious dude!.. . of course I'm modulated! is there any other way? LMAO . . . good presentation man. Thanks

I watch the video for the reviews and stay for the playing, amazing sounds Mr Bill.

I remember seeing them advertise this and thinking you should do a review!

Great demo! Great sounding pedal too. Been thinking about a second delay for the board. This may be it.

I picked one of these up a few days ago, I love mine! The octave and shimmer settings can get pretty ambient, and i always have a real weakness for tape echos. Replaced a DD-7 on my board, wasn't even close.

great vids man!

i love this video! gives me more ideas how to use my canyon delay! thank you for making this demo! awesome!!

Thanks for this, will be getting one of these, that shimmer is to 'die for' ;)

Oh, I hoped that you review this Pedal since I'm planning to buy one as well. Am just kinda late, I guess. Great Video.

looking forward to you reviewing the EHX "Grand Canyon Echo" Bill......looks pretty sweet and a little more user friendly..

You made this sound amazing! I'm researching delay pedals now and really like the echo type tape emulation ones. I also think having reverb in the same pedal would be cool so this has really piqued my interest. Thank you for such a lovely demo. I sort of got lost in your playing at times :-)

I might mention ,if I may,that at $139.00 this is a great pedal for people on a budget like me.I've had mine for a couple of weeks and am getting a real blast out of it.

12:15 playing Michi by the Yoshida Brothers? So cool!

Wife just bought me one... Can't wait to play..and create.

I love that Shimmer mode.

The Canyon sounds pretty impressive, particularly considering the price. It does a good shimmer too. You should check out the Specular Reverb 2, by GFI System. It's an ambient player's dream machine. It's shimmer is the best I've ever heard.

Good guitar player with great smooth style.

I gotta get me one of those pedals. I love the reverse and the shimmer settings which I'd use for more experimental music, plus a wah wah pedal. I love to make psychedelic music.

Just picked this up after playing with it for 4 hours in the shop.

For the money, this is a pretty sweet pedal. I'm running two delays and one reverb/delay, this could conceivably replace two of those pedals.

Man, that loop function Jam was breathtaking. What a beautiful sound... would it be better to get the canyon instead of the memory man?

Sold!

tbh I want the Mooer Ocean Machine but I already have a Hazarai & a Cathedral, so I'll either pick up the Canyon or another used Hazarai, and because it has a looper, I will probably pick up the Canyon since it's smaller.

That loop demo would have Dave Gilmour tipping his hat. Well done. I'm moved. And stoned.

Hi, a couple of questions about secondary knobs function on Canyon delay. For example... When i turn knobs in secondary mode, does this changed settings remain in the standard mode when i return to it or just stay in that secondary mode? I ask this because of chance to ruin or screw up default settings in standard mode with messing in secondary, without memory how it was before messing with controls in secondary mode. Further more, does the pedal memorize the knob position of the settings in the secondary mode when you return to it later, or behave in „one time only“ manner? To be more specific, when turn knobs in some way in the secondary mode, then return to normal, turn the knobs in a different position, then return to secondary, the sound remains like I leave it before returning to normal mode or apply automatically the new position of knobs, which I change in mean time, to sound? Both questions are about same thing with different approach. And one more thing ... Does pedal change, in any way, original, dry sound of an instrument when engaged? I mean both on first stroke (first note or chord than you strike) and delayed, repeated one? Or there are no changes in continuity, tone of sound, delayed or not? Apologize for so mush data and questioning. Please help. Thx in advance!

I love your videos. I wanted to ask, Which one is better? EHX Canyon or TC Electronic Flashback one?

Awesome tones! I just picked up mine two days ago absolutely love it! EHX CANYON > TC flashback in my opinion

@chords of Orion hv u ever done demo on carbon copy delux? And do any analog padels comes with looper inbuild in it?

your voice make me feel calm -_-

Just a great pedal it took me a minute to understand how to use all it's functions but once you do you'll be experimenting with sounds you probably never had access to before.

Very very nice

My board is begging to have one of these on it .

The dmm demo was far and away my favorite part and my favorite effect on this pedal. This pedal seriously packs a punch way above its weight. Got mine used for $99..I'll never get rid of it. I do want that new dl4 mkii, but still won't part with this.

any chance for a deep dive into how the secondary function truly work?

Sounds nice,but I think the Digitech Obscura Altered Delay is a better option yes I know it has only three presets but they're great ones and is stereo ins and outs

awesome!

Thanks Bro!!!

The Tape delay on this pedal is superior to the TC flashback IMO. It's just like a dub reggae sound right out of the seventies. Actually, I found most of the types overall tastier and more varied than the Flashback. With the tap tempo and secondary knob edits it's not even a fair fight.

Great tone, congratulations! This pedal sounds as good as strymon or boss, it seems very interesting. The button between the knobs it seems very interesting too. I'd like to know: have you ever used the Zoom G1xOn, G3 or G5? Forgive my English, I'm Brazilian.

(@2:42) BV: "Maybe you're modulating too, I don't know." Me: Always 😁

When you played verb mode, was that just the pedal?

If you are going to add a stereo chorus to This would it be before or after? What an amazing video in an amazing product this sold me it's exactly the sound I am looking for ... great video. Very informative

Can we use the looper with the effects? Or we can only use the looper without effects?

When are you releasing "Don't breath 2"?

Been looking for an effect to duplicate my old Lexicon LXP5 "Sky" setting and this pedal might just be it. :)

Onion Knight? Thanks for the review
