This pedal feels like a fever dream. It's a bonkers amalgamation of two of the funnest modulation effects around (not counting chorus) and it does it in a way that is very Electro Harmonix.

I often contemplate the blending of phasers and flangers because I'm always wanting more crispness and edge on my phasers and more roundness and warmth on my flangers. This thing smashes them together in a pleasant way. I watched the video and still don't understand what all the knobs do but it is a feat in engineering and marketing or whatever you call the side of the business that is practical and having to justify this ungodly creation. Great video and great fitting pedal for your format- despite it being massive. The foxy mistress will now haunt us forever

@Pepino2017 Месяц назад

You should call your show “Underdog Stompbox Breakdown.” I love the niche you’ve created within the RU-vid universe: coverage of interesting, creative, under-the-radar pedals. Keep up the great work!

@gophercrow Месяц назад

These large format EH pedals have always reminded me of toasters. A warm metal box to put your bread. From a time when you didn't have a pedalboard. The pedal is its own pedalboard.

@amylou7991 Месяц назад

I'm glad that this pedal exists as it's a testament to the beautifully bonkers thinking that Mike Matthews allowed to happen. I'm even gladder that it's been given the Stompbox Breakdown treatment. 😊

@jamiemorgan4146 Месяц назад

🤙🏻👍🏻👊🏻 There’s no one that explains pedals in the depth that you do. I really enjoy you explaining them from a technical point.

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Thank you so much, it’s my pleasure

@bsriaudio Месяц назад

What a beauty! I had one of these taking up a full quarter of my pedalboard in college.

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Worth it!!

@thatgary Месяц назад

As always, your videos are a perfect blend of informative while being entertaining and humorous. But dude you made me belly laugh many times in this one. Great video and as always great content!

@BitcoinTakeover Месяц назад

I love the nerdiness of your videos and how much you go into depth in order to explain how stuff works! It's also the reason why your channel won't grow too much, as most people don't care. But I absolutely adore it!

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Thank you so much, I always enjoy reading your feedback. I hope you're wrong about it not growing too much, but I'd rather be earnest and speak from a place of real interest than be one of those "OMG YOU GOTTA SEE THIS" people who have to force themselves to get excited about every pedal that shows up on their doorstep.

@BitcoinTakeover Месяц назад

@@StompboxBreakdown I just want to encourage you to keep going because I genuinely enjoy learning about how pedals work (even if I haven't bought one in almost 18 months!). My podcast is somewhat similar: so geeky that most people don't care to listen to it. But I'm fine, because the listeners are of very high quality and much smarter. The funny thing is that the quality of your content attracts the kind of audience that enjoys it. You think you want to be big and popular until you discover what kind of people lurk in the comment section of these "OMG YOU GOTTA SEE THIS" videos. Kudos to them for being able to handle this, but most of the times popularity also entails a degree of mediocrity. Excellence and genuine passion are super underrated.

I wanted one of these so bad when they first came out! In hindsight, it's probably a good thing I didn't get one - I think I would have driven myself and anyone I was playing with at the time insane with it. This is easily the best demo I've ever seen of this pedal though. Thanks for clearing up some mysteries for us!

@1VperOctave Месяц назад

Thank you for a great breakdown of this complex pedal. Particularly helpful advice on checking your house power panel before purchase! ;)

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

I like to be thorough :)

@Lovetone1983 Месяц назад

need to get mine out the EHX cupboard I have (over 25 old big box pedals) and see if I can replicate some of your settings. Sounds rad :)

@mistercheetah9717 Месяц назад

I just got one a couple weeks ago! This thing is such a sleeper!

@traviswaynedoyle 24 дня назад

That thing is almost TOO much pedal, lol. Thanks for making and sharing!

@StompboxBreakdown 19 дней назад

Absolutely. I don't think they expected it to really take off or anything, just a "what if" kinda pedal.

@huntergalloway3944 Месяц назад

I Iove your shirt! And this episode

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Thank you! It's one of the silliest shirts I own, it gets a lot of double takes.

I love EHX pedals I have a Pulsar, Soul Food, Holy Grail Plus (discontinued), Neo Clone, Nano Muff and a Nano 360.

@ramonafrombarcelona Месяц назад

there was an user by the name tube or tubes in the ehx forums that I think designed this pedal, and did design the tube pedals. there were even pictures of prototypes. It was wild. Look it up even if you have to use the wayback machine to retrieve those old posts

@mattgilbert7347 Месяц назад

Looks and sounds awesome. I want one of those Fulltone ChoralFlange pedals to go with my wonderful Jam Pedals Ripply Fall. That way I'd have Flanger, Phaser, and two different flavours of Chorus in two pedals.

@MYGAS21 Месяц назад

Brilliant! I had no idea.... learned allot. Thank you!

@allanflippin2453 Месяц назад

Wow! What a weird beastie! And it's all analog! No wonder they had to stop making it. I'd consider finding one, but it would turn my pedalboard into a war zone! Very strange sounds indeed. Thanks!

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Glad to put it in your radar

@Willaporte Месяц назад

what a fine swoosh

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

It ought to have a Nike logo on it

@orangpasir 10 дней назад

i was thinking about selling this thing but now i have second thoughts

@jimmydodopage Месяц назад

Aaaa finally the elephant in the room.

@idogepgyar Месяц назад

What was wrong about this pedal is the inconsistent colouring and the labelling of the knobs and function and more LFO would be useful tho. Got one, love it!

@Lovetone1983 Месяц назад

Just an FYI since you had the back off, you can easily mod this to run on 9V DC as despite the 18v adaptor, the circuit runs on 9v (and less) onboard actually. Up front there is a 9v regulator which you can bypass sensibly....

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Oh interesting! I noticed the board said 100mA, despite the housing saying 500mA. I wonder what the original plans were for this thing.

@Lovetone1983 Месяц назад

@@StompboxBreakdown yeah the Belling manufactured BBD devices wont run on more than 12v anyway.

@Guitar_Ted Месяц назад

I was not aware of anything like this out there, but yeah - How very "Electro Harmonix" of them to do this. The labeling on the inside and unpopulated spots on the board deserve some sleuthing. I'm more interested in that bit of the story than anything else about this pedal.

@dustyaudio Месяц назад

7:53 um…. Yeah 🛸

Oh shit my old nemesis the flanger hoax I just couldn't get anything i wanted from it

@DIYguitarGuy Месяц назад

Wow, you've got a course on EHX Mainframe Assembly? Sign me up, I'm interested in assembling my own bitcrushers.

@StompboxBreakdown Месяц назад

Haha, I'm sure there's some overlap between the pedal and the platform

@iosifkalpaktsoglou2045 12 дней назад

Imagine if ehx had added an envelope control too.

@Ulfromania Месяц назад

Yaaay you did it! I asked you a while ago to cover this pedal and you did it. And you are absolutely spot on the charm of this pedal. There is nothing like it and probably won't be again. I even find the noise it has charming, for the lofi, self-oscilation stuff i usually use it for.
