EAE Limelight - It's Exactly What You Need
Honestly, the tallon has more versatility and seems to respond really well to a rhythmic right hand.
I was hoping to see this review!
Guys, you can’t own the merc x and do a video comparing the halls and not do your basic homework. There’s no decay knob on the cxm 1978 either. Because the eq controls affect the decay for the corresponding frequency. I get you’re trying to go with the fun, off-the-cuff vibe but you’re clearly putting effort in and if you want to grow the channel then try to be more dialed in on the content.
Big fan of the Dual Drive! You found my favorite setting--Klon as a clean boost into the BB side.
Dig it!!!
Ahh yes, the Shit my Pants dual overdrive. BB and Klon is a deadly combo ❤
keep both
Another fantastic video! Very cool Rig!!!
I have all 4 and use them all. I'm hoping they make classic bass amp emulation soon.
"this you xan take the hall and Like....". and like what? What was actually changed lol ??
Alec’s board is seriously one I could jump right in an utilize. I too own the Diamond comp, the og version, but it’s great for an always on tone sweetener. Bluesbreakers are my favorite styles of drive, and have a similar point of contention regarding tube screamers, love/hate them, really use them to imitate the strokes and that’s about it. I use a Packrat as my main distortion if I throw one in the chain. Currently using the warm audio odd box v1 for more of a crunchy distortion. I own the ce-2w and adore that pedal, recently bought the past fx chorus ensemble though and the integrated preamp is neat. The el Capistan is one of my favorite delay pedals as well, although I’d have to say that the Diamond memory lane v1 is my favorite, I do have a jhs panther cub coming in today, would like to see how it stacks up. UA starlight is incredible, the dmm setting is my favorite. I use the cloudburst but miss the merc 7 sometimes, currently using my Strymon flint on plate if I’m not using my spring reverb on my fender twin.
$19 for a sandwich😂😂😂
In our defense, it was great. But yeah not worth $19 lol
Check the brand Dolamo really cheap and really ok
The kmise fuzz has a really cool sound. Ultimate drive is probably the same circuit as the others with that name, which are supposed to be ocd clones. Either way, you’re making it sound good.
That’s crazy!
Dude I laughed so hard filming this. Genuinely funny how close they were
@@alecbarnhart6428 I mean it genuinely makes you think!!! Do you try it…
Oddly, I kept the Pocket Metal for myself and traded the Ultimate Drive onward. Thought the Dolamo D-11 "Vintage Distortion" had a better sound (and more versatile modes), while the Pocket Metal just gives you "THAT sound in a box". Love all these sub-$20 pedals, though. Great way to mix and match a board for specific projects -- I have a Boss ES-5 switcher to wrangle them little nuggets into submission!
The 17$ pedal and 250$ pedal probably cost about the same to manufacture... The only difference is that one is sold to you at a much higher profit margin. And people have been conditioned by pricing like that to assume that a 17$ pedal can't possibly be good. More money must mean more better!
You could say this pedal was "more than you bargained for yet"
Bravo sir 👏
1981 killer like you said. Not bad at all though.
Please say the pedal names instead of “this one”. In many cases even while watching we can’t see what you’re pointing to and it gets confusing.
F.O.B!
NICE TITLE LOL
The profit that those expensive pedals make is ridiculous. The marketing department knows that most guitarists are not that smart in technical knowledge. Hence, to overcharge guitarists is easy.
Same with analog synthesizers. Like Teenage Engineering charges thousands of dollars for these things that just create different forms of waves. Look Mum No Computer makes his own for cheap. It's a ripoff.
That’s not how business works. That’s not how production works. Seriously, not to be (too) condescending, but I wonder what is your age, background, profession, education…. This just sounds like a very naive rant. 1) What “marketing department?” 1981 is like one guy, no? There’s no conspiracy or manipulation. 2) Can you recognize the difference between designing and manufacturing an elegantly designed pedal in the US vs making a copycat with lesser materials in China? 3) The objective of business is to generate profits. Thats how you survive against a massive field of competition. You have to decide what you can afford and what you want to support. Do you also rant at Mercedes for trying to make too much money because you can get a Kia that gets you groceries at the same speed? 4) I’m going to ignore the inane insult of guitarists’ intellects. Just too dumb to argue…..
Spitting facts. I thought the same…what marketing departments?
@@CentaurusRelax314 I have owned my own business for 10 years and many of my friends are millionaires that own their own business. Marketing is real, and I have been in it, and I can tell you it's basically just manipulation tactics 90% of the time, the other 10% a good product stands on it's own through word of mouth and doesn't need tricks like, certain colors do such and such in the brain and so on. The issue with US made pedals is that our "free market" is over regulated and over taxes, cause you know "tax the rich". These regulations cause an excess of money to be spent to continue manufacturing, and the taxes of course are also passed down to the consumer. Not to mention labor cost, more taxes and more regulations. A 15/hr employee cost me 30/hr. And yeah, profits. A luxury car and a guitar pedal are no mutually exclusive, it's not even a comparison. The fact is there is no reason a metal box with a breadboard and some clever engineering should cost so much. Like the Klon for example, big deal. I think that often times it's just guitar players getting a hard on for stuff other guitar players that they look up to say is good, and then they have to have it cause, tone. Look up "where does the tone come from in an amp" it's a video by Jim Lill. It will blow your mind.
@@nothingchannel111 interesting ‘perspective.’ Starts out vague and with a specious, Trump-like association with something of substance, and then devolves into conspiracy and victimization. Okay, 10 years. Great. Double that for me. Millionaire friends? That’s like Trump saying he has an inherent mind for science because his uncle went to MIT…. Yes, marketing is real. I’ve been in marketing/advertising for 30 years. But calling it “manipulation tactics 90% of the time” is ridiculous. Likewise, saying a good product stands on its own through word of mouth is insane and if you actually had to produce and sell a product yourself, well, you wouldn’t. I wonder if you would share with us what your “business” is and how you exist by “word of mouth” and how that would apply to the crowded pedal field. [Crickets….] Word of mouth works great for a lawn mowing business or babysitting. Sure-granted. Free market? Labor costs? Share with us, also, how in your business you pay yourself only the minimum that you need to survive. And what country are you in? You have a problem with regulations, but I would bet that you actually rely on them to protect your country from scenarios that are common in a lot of third world nations. And if something bad were to happen, you’d be quick on the trigger to your attorney to sue. The luxury car/pedal thing-that was an analogy. To illustrate a *concept* of reasoning. Can’t make it simpler for you if you can’t deal with a simple concept…. A metal box and breadboard doesn’t cost what it costs because of the cost of its components. Seriously, I need to know what business you’re in…. What are you typing these messages on? Take a look at the actual component costs of a smart phone or tablet vs retail. It’s the same thing, man. Products are almost never priced according to component costs. Do you know why a Boss pedal costs $150 vs $40 for a Joyo? Which one develops products. Which company has support staff. Which company pays a decent wage to employees. Which one spends millions on marketing and distribution channels and erects massive display booths at NAMM and supports artists and warrantees its products and…. You buy a $17 pedal off amazon-maybe your ears can’t tell the difference between it and a Klon or a King of Tone, but that’s not the point. It may very well be as musical as an expensive pedal. Again, not the point. You raise the point of the Klon-maybe you don’t like/understand the Klon. Maybe you haven’t owned one or a good version of one. I’ve had a few clones, and never bonded with any of them until the Germanium Wampler, which I now absolutely love. Not the point either. With an actual Klon, if you buy one, its value is more than its components and its value is actually increasing. Big deal? Check the number of pros who use one. They consider it a big deal. You don’t need to ‘get it’ for it to still have value. Try looking at it from another perspective. It’s not all about You. It’s not that kind of party….
I did a review of almost the entire Line scored them on average $13 from temu as a brand new shopper, pretty decent. Only 1 was inoperable, good for someone looking to enter pedal life 😎🤙
Congratulations on getting married!!!
Thanks man!!!
Uh oh "Big Pedal" is going to have to have you two dealt with now. Write your wills now!
Thanks for nothing???
Caline Pure Sky is the best cheap pedal to try. an other pedal that i want to try is the Musontek Dream Castle, only for the graphics 😅, because is pink 😂
Dig it!
Thanks!
Dig it!
Thanks!
Curious, but is the lvx capable of good dual delays? Any reason why stacking with the el cap is preferred ?
Speaking from personal experience, it definitely is! His choice is just down to workflow preference I'd imagine. I still like the sound of my line 6 echo park for normal delays, so I use it in conjunction with the LVX for strictly wild and experimental delays.
He nailed it! lol it's just a work flow thing for me and also I just love the El Cap. But the LVX could handle all of that if you wanted it too
That Cathedra patch is incredible. Any chance you have it for sale or have put it up on PatchStorage?
I don't yet, but I can. Let me work on that! Glad you dig it
I like how all Benson boosts in the world set on 6. ALL OF THEM.
I've noticed this too lol It almost doesn't need a knob
Why did you decide on no limelight on this board?
Honestly just because it's on a different board lol I'm sure the drives will rotate for different sounds I need
Easy Alec, don't want to get TOO big there, big dawg
I only watch this video at 9 o'clock
I love meris. Truly do. More because of their customer service and they just feel like real people. Down to earth people. Strymon vibe is more well robotic. More all business, which is not a bad thing because they are so good at what they do. Downfall for me was the lack of meris tutorials. For those of us who are quick to get option paralysis I just got stuck too often. Now strymon.. boom right off the back here is how to use our product and master it. To me that’s the difference. Sound wise they both rock. When the timeline 2 comes out just watch. Top dog will come out and demo it and instantly you will master the timeline 2.
Black keys reference 3:38
Yes
It ain’t Marist A-hole. It’s Meris.
I had a 1980 silver screw, black label, MIJ CE-2. It was lovely but the CE-2W sounds almost identical and has the bonus CE-1 mode. I like my PastFX CE-1 mn3007 mini and Danelectro Cool Cat Stereo Chorus 18v
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Guys, I think this is fantastic. I can’t watch any more superstar noodle errs who twist knobs and don’t say anything. Unless I’m staring at what they are doing I’m not learning anything and listening to your commentary was super helpful. I hope you do more reviews. This is a review. The rest are just playing samples or something.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it! We'll keep em coming
I have them on both sides of my board. I use them when the placement of the board and the jacks on the first or last pedal would make the in/out cables do a weird bend
THIS IS NOT A TUBE SCREAMER................... SO MANY MAKE THIS MISTAKE.
Lol nothing makes people as mad as accidentally saying it's a tube screamer. But you're correct it is not
Pretty fair comparison. Very good point that Meris MercuryX has loads of stuff right in the reverb block itself that goes a long way. It’s even easier than that LVX IMO. Other blocks and modifiers extend the power but are not necessary for great sounds.
