Nice Video. I have this pedal, and have used it on recordings for bass - but that 70's smooth guitar tone you got was the real takeaway for me. I could see guitarists using this too.
Sounds great - I was looking forward to hearing you put it on vocals until you didn't! Many many moons ago, on a trip to Dublin, I tried one of these out in "Walton's Worlds of Music". I really wanted to buy it but I decided that it wouldn't be suited to either the country and folk music that I played with my father or the Weezer wanabee band that I was in with my friends from school - tough times.
you may have just inspired a quick follow up vid! ... it was crazy expensive at $200 in 2002 so I can see the hesitation... that receipt I mentioned? I edited out the part where i mention returning a different bass synth pedal that was like $70 ... I wish I remembered which one that was. I think Ibanez?
I am intrigued about how this thing works from a synthesizer perspective. Like, it seems to sync pitch and trigger for the incoming audio, but it substitutes the incoming sound wave for an internal oscillator? Does it blend the sound sources or is it just the pedal that goes out? You have some envelope control on there, but still it follows the way you play on the instruments, so how the hell does that work? The oscillator sounds pretty good actually, why don't you hook it up to a 303 or some other bass synth/sequencer and see what it does.
I was drooling over this pedal some 20 yrs ago, but when I had saved up, and went to get it, the store owner told me they just got in a new pedal, Akai pro's Deep Impact -so I got that one instead :D Stil love it.
Motor City Guitar! Haven't been up there in a minute but it's a gem in metro Detroit. I'm from the East side 😉 Love the channel! Keep up the great content!!
I play with my SYB-3 since it came out in 1996, with drum machines ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_H-XVGiUlN8.html ) or bass guitar ( on my second RU-vid channel : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YfyJRYAJls4.html ) or keyboards. It's a good Roland-SH_like sound, love it, fav' synth. :) With a BOSS Delay pedal
@@MadeOnTape Hey, it's a bit newer but I've been diving into the Boss IR-200 pedal and putting everything I can in front or in the loop and just playing with sounds and tones. The thing is amazing. I'm mostly into recording gear and pedals (guitar\bass) but I've been diving in to drum machines a bit lately as well. Picked up a Drumbrute recently and now I want to chase down old analog 80's stuff cuz I miss it from my childhood.
