Very nice transparent overdrive. Doesn’t color your sound too much. Sounds like it’d be great for John Mayer style leads. This may be the pedal I’ve been looking for, thanks Ola!
Let's be real, we all knew the answer to this particular question before we clicked the video, but we all came here anyway to watch Ola's eyebrows reach heights not previously thought possible.
Compared to all the other videos, his expressions are pretty similar, but what made this video wonderful was those expressions, on top of the strange sounds emerging, made it seem like he was descending into a hallucination experience. Hilarious! Favorite moment: 5:04
it’s like a dance gavin dance intro riff effect and then you don’t hear it for the rest of the song but it made you think “thats pretty cool” or gets the crowd cheering in the first 20 seconds because a d v a n c e d g u I t a r
Bro put this thing in a modular synth system and you've got your bitcrusher glitchy thing to spice up your sequences. Modify it in order to receive CV, combine it eith a vocoder and a delay module and you've got a nice eurorack system
Sounds like there's a lot of potential for SUPER grimy sludge/stoner type metal in there, that fuzz portion is monstrous, and mixing in the subharmonics it seems like it'll really live up to that Earthquaker name. Imagine it going into a full stack or split off into a bass cabinet, holy shit.
Yeah Jack already has his own pedal that he sells to the public through his Third Man Records website that sounds like the Data Corrupter. Jack's pedal is called the Mantic Flex Pedal through his brand Third Man Hardware.
@@amadeusvprozac That pedal he uses is the mantic flex that watcher zero mentioned. Justin Pearson of the locust also uses the legendary schumann PLL on his bass. PLLs FTW!
Fun fact: JD Pinkus (ex Melvins, ex Butthole Surfers) uses an Earthquaker Bit Commander pedal for his solo banjo work that was given to him by Jack White
As I read this comment at 6:55, you can hear Ola playing something that sounds exactly like "And Hell Followed With". I think it's called Mara, they do a lot of the same style of affect it sounds like your band does! Definitely a great idea, especially for live applications. Thanks for spreading the knowledge!
@@AAllinsonNN It’s capable of so much more than Ola demonstrated. One mistake I see a lot of people make is that you are only supposed to use one note at a time and never more, no chords not even power chords or at least in my opinion, you might be able to do something with chords but I found a single note at a time to work best.
Though it will never chug like a Boss HM-2, this pedal chugs in an early Melvins kind of way. To me there are endless possibilities, but get why most guitarists don't like it.
@@pablobonifacio8755 True, but I just wish brands like LTD would start using either graphite or GraphTech nuts. If Solar, Ibanez, and Schecter (among others) can do it, so can LTD.
Id say your the professor of chug! I have learned so much about tone from you. Part of my tone at home, is solely because of you Ola. I even have your metal pack and ir cabs on bias fx 2. I also use an RP255...which shreds....and chugs. Cheers
Ola, I think this may have been the most hilarious Will It Chug ever! Sounds like the theme songs to Super Mario Bros., Zelda Halloween all wrapped up in a big 💨 lol. Lmao
"you can mix all these voices to create an incredible salad". 😅 PRICELESS!! Man I love some of the things that he comes up with.. and the faces.. oh man..
Indeed it sounds like a simplistic standard square wave ran thru a hella ancient Zoom 9002 & shit bass cab with a broken horn while the pitch shifter is stuck on.
Fuzz, Overdrive, and Distortion all open up various drive for music variety!!! ..and the way the guitar is played This fuzz has a awesome octave sound like whitestripes rock tones!!! Velcro Fuzz is the best kind of fuzz ;)
This sounds like something Mick Thomson would use. He's definitely into weird, crazy effect like this and I can totally see him come up with really sick sounding riffs with the Data Corrupter.
I would say that maybe the Fuzz sound you can get from it could serve as a layer to a heavy rythm guitar. Just a layer on the background to add body and fatness not as a doubling track.
That is some crazy sounding s*** there! At one point when you were fiddling around with the knobs it was making sounds like the old arcade game from the '80s robotron lol
