    I'm a beginner. Still learning chords. But I'm addicted to buying new ukuleles. After seeing your demonstration I'm now focusing on effects pedals. Cool video. Can't wait to try it.

    I thought the pedal for a bass in my uke this morning. Thanks for posting.

    I think you just sold me on this pedal. I have been resisting starting a pedal board, but if I were to start one it would be a looper and an octave pedal. I tried to search for different youtube videos using octave pedals and a ukulele. Your video was the cleanest example. So thank you for creating it.

    Excellent demo! You’ve sold me on the idea for sure. As for the fact that you did the two tracks without monitor, I’d say your internal metronome is working pretty well!

    I set up a toneprint for this little guy to use as an organ sound with octaves and some chorus. This thing is seriously versatile.

      That’s awesome. Tell me more about setting up a tone print.

      @@HalBrolund It's sort of a mass pain in the ass but there's so much you can get out of that pedal. The easy way is to download the app on your phone and it comes with a bunch of presets which can turn on secondary functions (the phone emits a tone through your pickup to send messages to the pedal, super crazy, sounds like dial up) but to really dive into it there's a usb jack on the side of the pedal. Plug it into your computer, download the toneprint software from TC's website and you can tweak all of the settings and save them.on the Sub n up you can control the wet mix and drive of all three octaves, EQ the signal, apply filters to each octave separately, and add modulation effects (chorus/flanger mostly) and map the pedals to have different functions (my sub bass knob adds in chorus to the full signal) If you have a free afternoon it's worth playing around with as there's so much more you can get out of the pedal than what the three knobs give you.

      There are lots of options but not all octave pedals work well with the uke

    I purchased a TC Electronic Nether. I’m playing a low G Tenor with Nylon strings (not the low G). The range of the base effect is limited with the effect turned on for example I can’t play an F note as it just sounds normal. The only base notes are really the first few on the top string.
    I can see you’re having more success with this pedal and are playing notes on the C string (F note).
    I’m just wondering if you have steel strings and the type of Ukulele (tenor / baritone).
    Any help appreciated.

      The uke I’m playing is a tenor/concert combo and I do use a wound Low G on the tenor because I like the snappy feel. I think I’m in the minority of uke players in that one though but I feel like it gives a more real bass tone to the nylon string.
      The uke was made by Fred Casey in Winnipeg Beach, Manitoba. (www.cfcaseyguitars.com)

    Hi Hal, which do you like better, your original Mooer Tender Octaver pedal that you demoed awhile back or this new TC SubnUp? I plan to setup a board similar to yours for a uke bass loop. Thanks in advance!

    • @HalBrolund
      @HalBrolund  2 года назад +2

      Both! They are very similar. The Tender Octaver that I owned was one of the original copies of the electro harmonix mini POG and it sounded awesome. Mine died however and Mooer got sued and so the original is no more. They have released a version 2 that is supposed to be pretty good but I'd have to order it in to find out. I was planning to do that but then this pedal came up for sale from a local friend of mine for a similar price. All this to say I'd be happy with either.
