Anatomy Of The Sound - Hologram Electronics Microcosm 

Does the pube attached to the Hold switch @ 4:00 come included?

This was awesome! Love this new series. Your on-screen presence is natural and charismatic from the get-go. Keep up the great work, buddy!

The editing and direction of this deserves an Emmy

Just got it delivered and it’s fun right out of the box. Great for ethereal sounds and goofing around. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!

Dude! That looped guitar line you use while demonstrating the ‘Granules’ function of this pedal gave me goosebumps. Hit with every emotion at once. I shall be spending my day tomorrow learning it.

That's the best overview of the Microcosm I've seen so far Ben. Great work explaining everything in such a straight forward way. Looking forward to the full demo!

I new I’d love this pedal but with the price point I was never ready to pull the trigger. The clarity of this video has given me the the confirmation much needed. This is the next pedal for sure!! Thanks!!!

Great demo of this exciting pedal. I really like how you break it down and make it easy to understand. Looking forward to more clips in this series!

Another great review! Just got mine; took about 10 days from ordering it to land on my doorstep in South Australia (was expecting it to take months, after hearing how hard they are to get hold of). Like many people, I’ve questioned the cost/value of this pedal. After fiddling around with it for just a couple of days, I’ll say this: Consider that you get a very functional looper (with speed variations, reverse, pre/post effects, fade-in and out, quantise mode…). Next, a “standard” multi-effects section with a great stereo reverb (albeit not the most versatile), and modulation that can be tweaked from subtle chorus to warbly vibratos. Then throw in the whole granular, microdelay section on top of that, and hands-on controls that mix everything together in a highly usable way. AND it ships with a power supply for your country (don’t you wish every pedal manufacturer did this?). In terms of replacing Microcosm with individual pedals, you could easily spend 2-3 times as much, and still get something much less functional. At this point I’m still grappling with a few things. I like the looper last in my chain, but not sure if that’s where the pedal fits best. I’m also looking for settings that add subtle “backgrounds” to less ambient music. It’s so very easy to get lost in those swirly, mushy pads for hours…

I love this new format ! Congratulation dude, keep going ! The demo is great as always ! :)

This was so well done. Love this format.

You guys just keep on making incredibly beautiful stuff. Great job!

Great video as always. Finally got my Microcosm yesterday and it is a beast. The amount of power packed into it is really incredible.

Now that is an actual review in action!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Awaiting more videos if possible including clips of the instrument playing plus the pedals to really have a closer feel of the difference between the input and output signal.

Up until an hour ago I hadn't heard of this pedal company, this model or this channel. I can say I'm blown away by all three! Great video btw. I'll be checking out your other videos and keep up the good work. I hope this doesn't sound weird but the 'feel' of this video is amazing. Looks good, chilled vibe, great lighting and great playthrough!

What a brilliant demo! Thanks for the hard work!

I think your hands have something special, they are expressive, exactly like your music. Anything you touch becomes pure beauty.

Superb as always.

A nice taste of what this thing can do. And I enjoyed your playing a lot. Thanks

Love this demo. I was just recording with the Microcosm - dove right in without looking at tutorials - and even though I got some amazing sounds, I admit I was a bit lost. This gives me a much better idea of how to approach it. Thank you!

Really great demo, mine is on the way from Cincinnati to the UK. Can't wait to try and get my head round it. Your explanations here will be very helpful!

Well produced and informative - thx 🎼

Beautiful!

Awesome as usual

"Reversing fixes everything". Sounds like something quote from F&F

Thank you that was very helpful and clear!

Great video! Thank you.

Good stuff... more!😉

Really enjoyed this demo and new format! Microcosm looks immense, but you really helped break it down into bite-sized chunks. Beautiful sounds all around! I feel like if i had the chance to try out the Microcosm, it would play me more than me taming it!

Need 1 of these. 4 sure!!!

Great video! Looking forward to more in the microcosm series. I am especially interested in how the reverb Quality compares to other awesome stereo reverb’s like mercury 7.

Great demo!

I'll be revisiting this again soon. Just got mine

Great intro. Nice pace in your video. I hope to see what this pedal can do with MIDI sync. Subscribed!

Thanks for the easy to understand and super helpful video! Do you plan on making more videos on the Microcosm? (Please 😊)

Lovely.

Love the bit of chat, makes for a more professional video

Amazing stuff! Two quick questions: what instruments did you play through the Microcosm other than a guitar? And secondly, were you then running it into amps or into something like an Iridium? Many thanks in advance :)

Nice effecter 🙂

Hmmmm....This might be a long shot, but by any chance are you a Legend of Zelda fan? Cause that little bit at 4:46 was the precise synth tone, chord and (almost) melody from the Temple of Time in Ocarina of Time! haha if not this is an awesome coincidence, and if you are well then thanks for throwing that in!

supergreat

This is incredible. How long can you make a loop for?

I'd love to get this pedal. However, and maybe it's just me, but I've noticed that most of the sound samples I've heard made me sad. Yeah. Weird. So...does this pedal come with a bottle of antidepressants? I mean, damn...I seriously love this pedal, but..but...damn! Still... Groovy sounds. You did a great demo dude. Keep it up!

Awesome demo! I'm Australian too! Did you get this shipped over from the US or find an Australian seller?

Hi there! I'm not sure about one point and I would like to ask for your help. Can you use the Microcosm as an effect processor or the effects section (mosaic, etc) it's going to affect just the loop?

If you got it, and yes I know it's old but I can't find any good videos on how to use the Eventide Space, so if you wan't, only an idea for this new series of yours. Anyway, thanks for good videos in general and this new project in particular, stay safe.

You might need to make a series of video's just on this pedal alone.

I wonder how this could be used to do much more abrasive noisier stuff....it kinda almost gets into that zone at the glitchy bit crushing part but I'd love to see/hear more in that direction if anyone knows a video demo like that?

i want this for my guitar, should i do it? or just learn to use ableton effects? is it the same thing?

What instrument did you use @ 4:28?

What’s the best placement for this beast in the pedal chain?

special edition it to come in black with white silkscreen and I'll by two!

Can you modulate the cutoff point?

They shoulda called this pedal “Instant Jonny Greenwood”

Damn i would really love this but shipping plus taxes are insane to the EU... Well gotta wait for someone to sell it or reach a bit deeper into my pockets :)

Learned the hard way the Bad things about the Microcosm. -Crackles on Sound even with the new update. (they have a software algorithm problem) -Kinda works only with short burst/stab Sounds (don't expect results with pads or drones) -Not real Stereo input ( TRS is not a real solution) Hologram is definitely cutting corners -It feels extremely repetitive FX, you'll get tired after 5 hours of use, maybe 1-2 weeks with it, and it will drain your Creative juices -Uber expensive for this issues If you have the GAS go for it, but BEWARE of these know Issues

in convinced its physically impossible to make a bad sound with this pedal

Sufjan Stevens look out!

A casual face reveal?

Enjoyed until you flipped me off 👍😂

gas

get some decent gloves
