I was a bit skeptical by the Onward Pedal from Chase Bliss. Most of their pedals are COOL! BUT.. not that practical for my needs. The Onward pedal is a testament to that statement. It's very exploratory and helpful for artists wanting to explore new sonic territories, BUT I'm just trying to make some music with it.. And as you'll see, I end up changing my own mind mid video haha!

With all the glitch/sample/looper pedals out there which is your favorite? Seems like a lot of these exist now no?

@256k_ 27 дней назад

torn between this and microcosm. feels like there's some overlap there...

@billybartcody3591 27 дней назад

There definitely is, but this seems to be a bit more focused and controlled, whereas Microcosm can be hard to steer or dial into a specific desired effect. In all honesty this seems to do many of the things I love about the Microcosm, although Microcosm has a great performative looper as well.

@chiefbucknell 27 дней назад

Red 🐼 Particle V2 & Tensor, Soma Cosmos (Rhythmic firmware), Glou-Glou Loupé, Eventide-UltraTap, Crystals, Looper, etc.-and some on this channel: ZOIA, Microcosm, Blooper, & Habit.

@djktron 27 дней назад

Meris Ottobit which kinda sorta fits the bill

@compucorder64 27 дней назад

I love Soma Cosmos, it puts you in a space to get lost in with your instrument. I like the fact there's different firmwares and also the fat it's quite large and tactile, satisfying to use.

@chiefbucknell 27 дней назад

FYI: Meris MIDI I/O sends MIDI Out via tip of TRS, but Chase Bliss pedals receive MIDI In on ring of TRS. From the manual for MIDI I/O: “For use with Chase Bliss pedals, you will need to create a custom cable, since they receive MIDI on the ring of the TRS cable (they currently do not transmit).” I recall having used some Hosa Y (insert?) adapters/cables (TRS to split TS) to swap tip with ring, in order to get MIDI into a Chase Bliss pedal.

@foxendeavor 23 дня назад

Could just use a type a to b midi cable?

They had your "MIDI - dad hat" at perfect circuit. So, at least for now, you've become "Midi Dad" in my mind 😅 That said I fell like we're living in such an interesting time for pedals. I feel like I went at least a decade without a pedal catching my eye. Now from Hologram to Storymon, Chase Bliss to EAE. Can't wait to see what's next!

Cool sounding pedal. Works good on an intro section of a techno/house track, and into the track keep a small sample as pad/drone. I find myself doing that with the MOOD

Dope as always! in this episode i didn’t like the kick tho, because it was too much thumby midrange and too “tonal”, i would prefer more a low range kick like &ME in this track (my opinion)

@burneraccount9829 25 дней назад

@aaronpermen5430 27 дней назад

I’ve owned and sold both CBA Mood and Mood MK2, they weren’t for me. Onward does look really cool though, seems like it could replace the EHX Superego which has been a stalwart on my pedalboard. Otherwise my favorite glitch pedal has always been the Malekko Charlie Foxtrot.

@kitespongan 27 дней назад

I’ve got the Meris Ottobit Jr which I really love, but I wonder how it compares with the Onward. I’ve got it paired with Generation Loss MKII, and I much prefer Chase Bliss’ pedal form factor. Hmm.. actually, I prefer the 1/4” jacks in the back… 😢😅

@MrMarcLaflamme 27 дней назад

This pedal was not what I expected it to be, sounds pretty nifty. Texture maker for sure. Unrelated, was it just me or was the audio from the synth/pedal a bit ahead of the video or was it latency from the pedal doing whatever it does? Something seemed off...

@philphilphil 27 дней назад

Love this setup. Piano, pedal, and of course... Digitakt.

@Space_pulse 26 дней назад

The proprietary midi thing is kind of bologna! But I do enjoy the 3 Chase Bliss pedals I have. I’ll probably just have to get their stupid little midi box eventually.

@78awhite 24 дня назад

I wouldn't say "proprietary"... most of the midi boxes have dip switches or jumpers that you can change for different midi configs. It's not hard or that different, it seems like it just wasn't immediate for Ricky in this case.

@earlsfield 26 дней назад

Bliss pedals are very deep and maybe you would want to take a few months before rushing out the review. I had a few "a-ha" moments with Thermae and Bloom, let alone Generation Loss (my favourite to date) a few months after I got the pedals. And, as for the MIDI, I am almost 100% certain your cables dont match up, meaning, TRS out of Meris is not appropriate to Chase MIDI.

@masterofreality230 26 дней назад

Kind of funny, the only one I have tried/owned is the Gen Loss mk2. I am going to guess you are using in more for keys? I am mainly a guitarist and besides using it after long delay lines or verb, I could not get along with it. They make great stuff, but that one was not for me I guess.

@earlsfield 26 дней назад

@@masterofreality230 yeah I do mostly use if with synths, with long sustained textures and percussion. I see what you mean, I think it can work for guitar especially in legendary v1 mode, but ofc if you did not dig it, there must be smt else out there for you:)

@cardboardmusic 26 дней назад

I'd be happy to try the Chase Bliss pedals, but at 460€ (here in the EU), it has to be usable for more than just making a sample. What you seem to be achieving is easily doable in a DAW (plugin), why have a pedal sitting around? BTW, I don't know if you can get them stateside, but some of the Drolo pedals are very interesting (too). Great video(s) as always. I love your positive way of making music, and talking about it.

@leftmono1016 25 дней назад

Everything is easier on a computer. But where’s the fun in that? 😉

@cardboardmusic 25 дней назад

@@leftmono1016 Yes, I know what you mean, and I totally agree, I'm working on a eurorack system. But, sometimes GAS confuses us, and although I think the Chase Bliss pedals look (and sound) amazing, I'm not sure that buying one to get 'a' sound really makes sense. Many years back, I bought an Akai Remix 16 almost brand new from a studio in London, who'd used it to make 'one' sound for a commercial. They then put it in storage for 10 or 15 years, and then sold it to me for peanuts. I'll never know if they made loads of money from that one commercial, however, nowadays it's easier and cheaper just to use a plugin (which might even be free), to find your one sound (IMHO).

The Strymon Conduit and Morningstar MIDI box are both good alternatives for TRS MIDI which allow for proper configuration with T/R and R/T setups.

@tendingtropic7778 27 дней назад

ofcourse its different, but i see some overlap. plus microcosm has other benefits! like midi din sync

@joevargo2777 26 дней назад

Onward gives much more control of the modulation in dialing in an exact sound, microcosm is great but the effects are more like presets you can play around with. Big advantage of the microcosm is that is has a looper and easy to access reverse effects.

@oorcinus 27 дней назад

Can it *not* ring horribly?

@yurijogurtsov8710 27 дней назад

maybe this was when both Octave was +1 and Texture CCW, which is sample (not bit) rate reduction (and its a bad one SRR, imo)

@tokiboi6777 27 дней назад

how is nobody mentioning how digital in a bad way it sounds?

@yurijogurtsov8710 27 дней назад

yes, while SRR is on (texture CCW) and worse when octave up. also Ricky had Length on, as he said (and showed) which reduces sample rate twice. when all this set to 0 it seems alright, no?

@patrickr6505 27 дней назад

You don't need to record it.. when you stumble on a cool sound.. Just save it to a preset..theres over a hundred of them🤔

@unseenjungle5386 27 дней назад

i think chase bliss stuff is great and unique for sure. But it is a freaking pedal... an expensive pedal... actually the worst way to house and implement an effects processor in my opinion.

@yurijogurtsov8710 27 дней назад

Ricky's got it wrong, it's not bitrate but sample rate reduction. SRR is rarely good sounding, but this one is particularly uninspiring. BRR is a different thing altogether

@DMT353 27 дней назад

That high pitched tinnitus aliasing type of frequency killed it for me. I like Chase Bliss pedals but this one does not sound good to me at all.

@thelevicole 27 дней назад

It's because of the texture knob. at 12 o'clock, no texture, to the left of 12, it's a bit/sample rate reduction, to the right it's saturation/overdrive. So it doesn't have to do that, but it can sound cool in certain situations.

@yurijogurtsov8710 27 дней назад

Sample rate reduction + octave up + length x2 (more SRR!) is a recipe for that.

@DrDeemz80 27 дней назад

Doesn't sem that impressive considering it seems sound indentical to tge the Qu-Bit Data Bender, so identical its like chase bliss didn't even try, granted data bender if a eurorack module the fact that someone already like this exists, and a million times better sounding, cant get into

@yurijogurtsov8710 27 дней назад

cmon.. CBA stopped trying long ago. check out Onward vs Mood by The Pedal Collaborative, it sounds like they just reused algos. that's alright, but lets face it, CB is not about revolution or experiment. but if it works for one's sound, then it does. I don't own any of their pedals anymore, but Onward is interesting for some very particular tasks for me. what CBA could make, and I wonder why they don't grab the opportunity, is a larger format tabletop FX machine
