1) plays video because Knobs, not really interested in pedals at the moment 2) waitwait it's stereo 3) starts wondering what it would do to synths 4) gets to the part where synths sound epic 5) oh no not again.
5:28 that loop, it is such a good thing and i like it very much edit: oh no that ending... proving that just as with vulfpeck it gets funkier, with knobs it gets nostalgic-er beautiful stuff
I never almost pay attention to the demo/explanations on my first watch, I'm just so captivated by your riffs. Ahhh, splendid times, splendid times indeed.
Literally why I buy pedals on amazon, I can return them when new versions come out right after a purchase. But I feel you pain. Hope they don't do the same with the Fathom.
My prediction is that with the popularity of the Slö that one will definitely see a V2 in the next year and a half. Also one day EQD will release a rainbow machine V3 w/ presets being one of the major new features.
So I was looking really looking for an EHX PolyChorus, but didn’t have a lot of options available. I was hoping for a good selection from a known retailer, and the artwork and it’s amazing used price caught my eye, but it was way back in the display case in a weird place. I tried it out, and the rare intuitive inspiration to create new music grabbed me. This isn’t always what I always expect from new gadgetry, but isn’t that what all pedals are for? My biggest problem is that the clerk didn’t include the box/instructions for it (despite having them with the display). He said that used pedals don’t get boxes, swag, instructions etc. So imagine my surprise when I see demos showing new features I never knew existed.
Made the purchase (from this, thermae, avalanche run v1) Thank you! I would love to see you review the cirrus by KMA Audio. I picked up this pedal and have really enjoyed it. It's much different than the avalanche run. I bet you would love it if you have not come across it already.
how often r u in a different tuning? how would u teach someone how to write riffs like these? I absolutely love the ideas that u bring to life using all these modulations. love u knobs :)
Just fuck around with open tunings. My favorite are open 2nd string drop tunings (D A E A C# E and its transpositions) and variations of F A C G C E. Just noodle around, find fingerstyle double stops that sound pleasant, and do your thing
Honestly, I don't see this as being an improvement on the original. I've never thought to myself, "You know what's missing from this chorus? A tap tempo and subdivisions!" The Julia is perfect as it is and there's nothing here to justify purchasing yet another chorus, in my opinion. Cool video though!
Did you see the video? Theres more than whats on the pedal. Drift, ramp, stereo, and random sdd a ton of depth and added functionality. I agree, snd for my purposes I won't need it but many people covet the stereo in and out. Others wanted more live modulation. It's a good pedal and definitely worth a shot.
Only thing I don't like about this pedal is the name, Julia had a significance to an unidentified sound in the ocean. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unexplained_sounds#Julia) Where Julianna is just a name. Also I didn't understand why when the signal was dry that we still got chorus effect? Was that due to lag affecting one channel only or what is going on there? Dry should be dry?
I watched twice to grasp what you're referring to and I'm still not sure. The synth patches have some internal modulation and the guitar loops are layered, is that what you're hearing?
How on earth do they achieve that super prominent and pleasing sound of the strings scraping and rasping against wood? Is it just caused by heavy compression?
Steven Larson Actually, this guy sums it up pretty good... www.reddit.com/r/guitarpedals/comments/70x7a9/the_3_main_types_of_stereo_chorus_and_why_only/?
Man I get what you are trying to do but you sporadic and schizophrenic music style makes it so difficult to recognise what is the pedal and what is your crazy tape style mask of input onto the pedal. It’s kind of pointless to my ears. Maybe share your signal chain?
