The 385 is a beast love it. It is great having some of the best pedals on the market from Oklahoma. Some great musicians and pedals from Oklahoma. Walrus is great.
Honestly don’t know what to say after watching this. I don’t own any pedals as of yet! Never really gave it much thought! Went to the Andersons site looking for something completely different. One thing led to another, found myself here. I just want them all now!
These pedals are pretty great. I have two of them (arp-87 and Julia). The thing is that they really aren’t going to do anything very new or crazy so keep that in mind. It really is all about simple controls and quality audio.
Slö is indeed a Swedish word which can mean drowzy, but it's more commonly used as lazy. It's also more uncommonly used as a deregatory word, then meaning slow in a mental sense, i.e. stupid. Drowzy would be more akin to something like dåsig. But this is all nitpicking, slö meaning drowzy works as well! 😊
I watch an Andertons video, I like what I see, i go on eBay and buy another pedal and my wife yells at me for buying more guitar stuff 🤣 and repeat next week 🤟
I have a Julia and a 385 and I love both of them to bits. Awesome awesome pedals. If you have a metal zone and a 385 put the MT-2 into the 385 and it will tame the harsher frequencies while increasing dynamic range
Literally just clicked on the video what do I hear? Pete's purple telecaster. What do I fall in love with all over again? Pete and his goddamn purple telecaster
I absolutely love walrus audio. Building my pedalboard and so far, plumes, slö, arp 87, Julia, polychrome. Will be getting the monument and iron horse next.
these pedals sound so good! this guy is good!... all about the modulation of the original note/chord... he's nailed it... i love a modulated note, or chord...
I am a huge Walrus product fan. The Slo, and the Red fit my style well, combine with Julia, Iron Horse, Fathom. Take a Fathom, with an Echo, and you can do a wicked Depece Mode non guitar version that you want to interpret their cool synth sound. Thumbs up Walrus!
@@Seanph25 the slo is great, and blends well for mixing, sustains with delay/echo on the back side of the chain. I like the iron horse, but found it to bright, with higher gain. I was able to control the Red better on my board. You will love them.
@@leevitalone Any idea on if the slö works well with humbuckers? I know Lee used some briefly but like all of the in depth demos I’ve seen are with strats and teles
@@Seanph25 I use it with a Nash Telecaster with Lollar hamburger in the bridge and it does well as the lollar has no feedback or hum/hiss. Like it best with my Jazzmaster as the sound is more expansive for bridging to my next notes.
Already have a Monument V2, Lillian, Arp-87 and Fathom on a custom board... just waiting on Julia V2 with top mount jacks to fill the last spot and it will be complete :D
I have the Fathom, and like it a lot. There's a hidden mode that has one of the ARP-87 delay algorithms in conjunction with the plate reverb algorithm of the Fathom. Sounds great. Makes me want an ARP-87, but I already have a dedicated delay pedal. :)
Honestly, a Quad Cortex with complete Walrus portfolio + a few Xotic FX might be my dream rig. I don't need a Klon, I don't need Strymon, I need pedals that play off eachother super well
I have the Julianna and ARP 87 - love them both , they definitely compliment each other. I have them in obsidian series, although I think I prefer the original :o
I love the Fathom reverb. When I bought it, I thought the 4 mode knob was a 4-position switch. It’s not - it’s a blend or pan from one to the next. The simplest thing is blending “Hall” and “Plate”, but you can go all sorts of places.
My only criticism for Walrus (a proud owner of Monument and Slo) is the LEDs. They're ridiculously bright. I have to put a finger over them to read what the controls are.
I really like the guys from Walrus. Seem like great people and I love love their passion. Pedals sound great too but not exactly my thing and I’m sorry I find them ugly. Until I watched the tps video with them and this one I would never have bought one based solely on how they look. Now that I’ve seen the people behind the pedals I probably won’t buy one but I’ll tell all my friends to.
Well Mr. Westbrook I just bought one Arp 87 with your national park theme on it. I know looks don’t make a guitar pedal sound good but if it sounds anything like it looks it’ll sound great.
@Andertons Music Co I hope the Captain and Pete should start including more the 385 in their rigs, and when reviewing other effects and amps use it as their foundation OD tone. Lovely pedal, fingers crossed!
Good stuff 👍 but have to ask Pete what is that splooge mark on the purple Tele headstock logo Walrus equals shoe gaze ambient extravaganza Myself Diaz Rangemaster into a modded TS w some echo Throw in a wah wah maybe But the 385 gets my interest Very cool
Would you be able to use the EB10 pedal to bring a loud amp down to home use volume? Like a hotrod deluxe cranked enough to get some dirt but not so loud that I kill the baby that lives above me.? Maybe I’m confusing this pedal with something else. 😕
Hit the preamp tubes with something like a EHX LPB1 clean boost and bring amp volume down and turn pedal up for lower volume dirt! That’s what I do with my Fender and Fender styled amps. Getting dirty with the amp on 1/2-2.
I saw an amazing demo of Julia. I never thought that I wanted or needed such a pedal (I have a chorus, but I've taken it off my pedalboard, I don't use it), but that demo showed so many options with that pedal that I'm really interested! There's one V2 used for $180. Should I get it? Anyone?
I owned it...awfully cool, but not sure the intensity worked for me overall. I love my Bellwether and Voyager...always on, but I dumped the Janus because I felt kind of deceived by its visual beauty, couldn’t quite justify keeping something with such a laser tone, and needed the cash🤣🤣🤣
@@BogoEN I know when it was first announced I was like “awwwww yeah” but I still have the old Julia cuz I already accepted that the Julia is in mono 😂 maybe I’ll pick up the new one some day if I find a good deal on a used one
Didnt know the line was sooooo extensive. Ive been running a pair of their AETOS power supplies (which are awesome) on my board for quite some time now. Hope they do some mini sized pedals in the future...Will definitely go check some out!
Cool effects, never really ever bonded with the ones I’ve owned: Julia, Slo, Arp87, and the Jupiter fuzz. Great, but almost stopped short of being what I was looking for. 385, Bellwether, and the Polychrome are awesome. I absolutely hate the sound of the Kangra.
I have an Aetos. Used it on a pedalboard to power a BluGuitar AMP1, Boss MS-3, and a Line 6 Wireless. About 6 months in, kept in a road case and well taken care of, my MS-3 started shutting down randomly. I thought it was the unit but then the Line 6 Wireless began doing the same thing, turns out it was the Aetos. Expensive power supply to only last 6 months. Company support said too bad.
You have to be careful playing delay pedals that give you that ambient sustain... You'll find yourself waking up to the unusual feeling of guitars falling off of you late at night! I quit playing long, blooming and sustained sound because it literally puts me to sleep, it'll cure insomnia with the cost of your guitar.
Guys this isn't a "review" it's a product demo. You can't give an unbiased review when a) the brand owner is sitting next to you and b) you are acting in your capacity as a store owner and retailer. There's nothing wrong with product demos and ads, but they should be correctly labelled.
Open and honest talking and playing. It’s an infomercial but it’s real with real people not the smoke and mirrors trickery of the days of yore. In other words neither demo or review but rather just your mates playing gear and saying what they think. Of course they want to sell products but that doesn’t have to imply bias. They just let the products sell themselves by trying to show you what they can do. It’s a new thing and better than ads, demos or reviews. It’s all and none at once.
Andertons is a retailer and they sell everything they demo. They are Never going to be critical of an item they sell ie everything they demo. Its a sales channel.
@@benlogan430 I'm sure the Andertons crew are nice chill guys. But they aren't my mates or yours. They're professionals doing a job - to demo and sell product.
I might disagree, most of successful companies no matter the field grow because the Founder had passion to go further and progress. Jobs, Gates, Bezos all of them started in a small garage and went further even when days were darker and they had opportunity to sell, but they continue because of their passion, without passion it's almost impossible to build something successful.
