      well then that wouldn’t have been the first ten minutes of me using the pedal ! But thanks for the editorial advice. More in depth video manuals will follow. Also, what we individually class as usual functions is all subjective from my experience depending on your musical tastes

    • @dougtolley

      Showing the exploration and learning of a pedal's functions is a valid concept and for me a part of the fun. The happy accidents and missteps are part of the process of getting to find those 'useful functions' and I like seeing those, personally.

    Totally. Yeah looking forward to hearing other instruments through it. I just think the whole glitch and freeze thing has already been done. Stoked to see what’s unique about Chase bliss implementation besides their unique workflow. I would be putting it on synths and drum machines but I also already have a Qu-bit Data Bender in my modular rack that seems very similar. I’m looking forward to future vids!

    • @nickreesyt
      @nickreesyt 2 дні тому

      Hey Ryan. Well firstly the pedal is designed for literally anything so no need to limit it to a guitar. Secondly, this was literally my first ten minutes playing what is a pretty deep non typical pedal so I wouldn’t worry too much about the lack of mind blowing sounds throughout. I will be sharing a lot more on it and putting together some intro tracks using it exclusively so hopefully, although I haven’t done them yet, that will show more of the practical ways you can use a pedal like this. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you jump on for the ride

    • @BrockDavisson

      How Onward responds to the playing dynamics of a guitar is awesome. I spent days with it at Superbooth and it has a place with any instrument, but I got the most out of it through the guitar, it's stereo capabilities are phenomenal.

I’m wanting to do very slow melodic rythems and if I can master a looper and learn to record on my laptop or iPad, using something this old brain will understand, like GarageBand or something, I would love to play the tracks and go over them with very slow melodic leads, like David Gilmore and others whose names I can’t seem to recall at this moment. I will be checking in on Mondays and Wednesdays and Instagram as well.. Have fun, and stay safe my friend…and Thanks again…..!

My friends would see my pedal board and reply something along the lines of "Wait you have two fuzzes per channel so 12 fuzzes total?" *shrugs* I'm a strange guitarist, I also only had fuzzes and a delay pedal...

    Running parallel effects is somthinf I've been doing for years. After using this one for a while I became frustrated with it's limitations. It be so much better in stereo. My frustrations led me to using a small mixer on my board, I'm seeing this more and more. This is kinda out of date.

    Oh Nick, I had the idea of a parallel Mixer buried in the back of my head because space is a rare thing on a pedalboard. Now I remember Pladask Elektrisk did their Matrix Mixer in stereo. Thanks for the sleepless night to come 😂 Great video and nice sounds!

    Great work. I run my LVX and MercuryX in parallel most of the time. I’ve got the option of series (my loop switcher can change per preset). Love the blend of the two in parallel. Also enjoyed seeing how you use it. More like three separate tracks. Cool stuff. Thanks again!

    Nice work Nick. Well explained! Nice and simple. I'm getting back into thinking about a parallel mixer again. When i had one years ago i just tinkered relentlessly and didnt play anything! I really appreciate the ability to separate different elements from one another. Cheers!

      Well, sometimes it is just a different thing: you can appreciate the pedals or the pedalboard as an instrument itself. I enjoy to play my pedalboard and create ambient soundscapes. And actually I don't even need a guitar. And buying a new pedal already became quite a rare event for me.

    Parallel mixers are almost essential for ambient soundscaping, at least if you use quite complex seetups. My ambient sounds would just be impossible without a parallel mixer and my pedalboard would be lost without my Matrise. These three loops in the TPM sound very good together. 👍👍

      @ThePedalboardOrchestra 9 днів тому

      @@nickreesyt no, my Matrise is still mono. I thought about getting a stereo Matrise, but it would make my board a lot more complicated. I have a lot of good mono pedals and I keep my stereo pedals at the end of the chain. Thus a stereo Matrise is actually not necessary for me.
