- This is the one pedal I would recommend over any other. 29 Pedals EUNA has been in my studio for a few months, and I seriously can't picture my workflow without it. You put EUNA at the front of your pedal chain, and BOOM! Everything sounds better. It's like magic.
Thank you so much 29 Pedals for sending me a EUNA -- I will cherish it forever

I don’t understand why other reviewers don’t address what the pedal does in cake form.
It's honestly the biggest perk of the pedal
those pedals go straight to my hips.
Such a nice limited edition
I recently discovered this channel and it has quickly become one of my favourites.
Thank you so much for being here with us!! I really appreciate you and I’m SO glad you’re enjoying the channel!! 🥰❤️🎶
The fidelity the EUNA adds is impressive. It really makes things come alive.
It really does!
I know that "I've been thinking about that leftover cake in the fridge all day at work and the first thing I'm doing when I get home, before I even take my coat off, is eating that cake!" look. We've all been there!
HAHAH guilty 🥺💖 I’m so glad I’m not the only one!! All the fondant Russ used for that cake became an acquired taste over time 😂
.... LIKE I SAID, ITS AN ACQUIRED TASTE 😅
@@emilyharpist Sugar. It's what's for dinner apparently ;)
I know(or I think) I said it on the Russ featured video, but the visualization of the sound frequencies adds so much to my video experience. I appreciate the effort y'all put into these!
thank you so much, David!! 🥰❤️ the visualization always really helps me see and understand exactly what's happening!
These are the unsung heroes of the pedal board. Glad they're getting some love. That comparison with the spectrogram was eye opening.
Thank you so much!! They really are heroes!!
This has to be some of the best ambient mix I've ever heard.. You're amazing, it's like the cleanest Space/Terra Echo ever!
I’m a guitar guy, but am truly amazed by your creativity in achieving different levels of sonic bliss. Your raw talent is what makes the harp sound great, the pedals just add nuances like proper lighting do for a Rembrandt.
thank you so much, Dave!! ❤️🥺 I really appreciate the kind words!! your comment just made my day today; thanks for being here with us! 🥰
wow it really is kind of mind blowing how much of a difference it makes!
Right?! I can’t picture life without it anymore
The EUNA is magical… it brings out nuances in my favorite delay pedal that I’ve had for years that I never heard before. Thanks for sharing, Emily!
right?!? when I first tested it out on harp my head just about exploded from the sound quality difference 😂 thank you so much for watching, Ryan!! I appreciate you 🥰❤️
You’re threatening me with a good time Ryan 😆 delay pedals are my weakness! This is def on my list now
I got mine 29 pedal Euna and OAMP after watching mark Johnston’s channel. Now I am a hung fan of Marks, 29 pedals , and of course your channel!
Mark’s channel is SO GOOD!! And obviously 29 pedals!! Haha
Just love the Sound!
Dude! “Fuzz Lords” would make such a badass band name.
lmaooo it needs to exist!!! 😂❤️
I'm super impressed with how well you worked Enzo's arp mode into your compositions. I didn't think it was possible until now. Thank you!
It’s SO fun!!! I actually documented discovering how to do it for the first time in my Enzo video!
CUSTOM NEON SIGN! THAT LITERALLY MADE MY DAY!
That 'Whatever' jack blew my mind. Sorcery!
SAME 🤯❤️
As a member of Fuzzlords Anonymous: You immediately addressed my concerns as I was watching your video thinking "This sounds great but what about my four different fuzz pedals I use". Well shit, I guess I need to start working on a new board.
Lmao I always know why Fuzzlords™️ are thinking!! Thanks for being here haha and I hope I helped you in some way!!
Your channel is so refreshing. Plus, it’s the perfect balance between expertise and goofiness. We all learn something, enjoy the musical reviews and have a genuine good laugh. ❤️
Made EVERYTHING sound better!
Thank you! You’re super talented and super adorable!
The Whatever™ Power-jack is nice to see.
Also: Fuzz-First could be great for a "dreaming of a better world"-type song with changing back and forth from everything is good to dark&gloomy.
Yes!!! That’s so perfect! And yes the Whatever™️ jack is still mind blowing!
Ooo-Wee! This was an outstanding video! A lot of people like to see the signal change. Nifty.
Love the simplicity of the pedal, plus everyone loves cake. If they don't then theres something wrong with them!
Great informative video, really enjoy ones that explain your sound. :)
This is the best demo of this pedal on RUclips.
Thanks so much!
Gonna say again that you two should offer some kinda course on mixing/producing around/for FX pedals. The EQ graph alone demonstrates exactly how much knowledge you have to share!
Omg yes please!!!!
I built (and am still building) my harp pedalboard based on your reviews and I’m also running my guitar through it as well and I love the EUNA. Without your insights I would not have known what I was missing…the EUNA is truly magic and foolproof! Thanks Emily! - Matthew (aka Rilkes_Letter)!
I’m SO happy to help!!! It’s seriously an honor to help you discover the sounds you’re looking for on harp 😭💖💖💖
love this channel
Thanks so much :)
I want to thank you for the great videos you make. You demo twice as many pedals as any guitar site and usually go into way more detail plus the harp makes it that more unusual and interesting.
thank you so much!!! 🥺❤️ I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos and finding them helpful; your comment made me smile today and I really appreciate you being here with us! 🥰
I love seeing an AMA on people's boards! It's such an underrated pedal!
It’s too good!!!
I was always curious about this pedal, great demo and explanation. Jealous of that board.
Thanks Wilhelm! This thing is just too good hahah
This is especially well done in how your organized the demo. Showing the waveform during the switching is brilliant. I wish more people would do this. Thinking about getting one fo these now.
Question: what is the device in between the EUNA and the compressor? I note it has a tilt setting, which is something I use a lot.
Hahaha the cake returns for SECONDS!! It really does make a difference and I appreciate the time to show it given there has been people asking why you have to have so much EQ compression before the effects start. My two fav new phrases are “mad lad” and “Fuzz lord” 😂 I know a few guys that fit the fuzz lord moniker to a tee! I’m picky about fuzz and am more a RAT person but I totally understand when you find a fuzz you like it’s a LOT of fun! It’s really great they made the EUNA have a workaround for fuzz as ya gainstaging is usually my problem with it so it’s on my list for the future I think. Thank you both this was really helpful for me to hear and see!
I picked up the Euna and Empress compressor (not bass) about 8 months ago. That combo will forever remain on my board.
Everything I thought I knew about my sound has been turned upside down. I cannot recommend either enough. Though, if you had to chose one, the Euna is the special sauce.
SAAAAAAME I'm glad I'm not the only one!! It's seriously life changing! ❤️
I learned so much about harps in this video.
*WHATEVER™* Love it. I need to make that into a shirt lol Fantastic video, guys. Really nice to see the in-depth of the unsung heroes of pedalboards and effect chains👍
That piece you played in the demo around 4:00 was so beautiful
Thank you so much!!! ❤️
@@emilyharpist is this something you have released by chance? it hit me right in the feels.
agreed. It's an invaluable tool. I use it daily.
As a certified Fuzzlord, I appreciate the acknowledgement.
Fuzzlords unite!
It really is amazing how much the less flashy kit is critical to sound - even more than the boutique show stoppers.
I do love the crispness of the EUNA. It is especially good to keep the sharp transients of the plucks (I assume they're not called pizzacato like other stringed instruments??). It makes the unique sound of the harp sing.
right?!? I can't picture my kit without EUNA now; it's the most crucial pedal I have! and same here, I love how "fresh and clean" it makes the harp sound hahah
(you're absolutely right, it's just called plucks instead of pizzicato!)
the term pizzicato only really applies to bowed instruments that have bowing as the main method of playing
Emily, I LOVE your channel. Your playing, expression, and use of effects is amazing :) I dont play a Harp, but one of my favorite emulations (in logic) is the "Harp" ran through a Big Sky. Obviously it does not touch the real deal with a 10 foot pole. Lastly, I just sent a link to your channel to my daughter who just picked up a Harp for a steal. I hope seeing you motivates her to stick with the instrument! Kudos Emily :)
Thank you so much James!! I need to try to run my real harp through a big sky!!! Best of luck to your daughter with the harp!! 😊
Fascinating stuff. Just watched this and the full board video... I wonder if you could find a travel solution that does both HPF and compression at once? Maybe something like the Jackson Audio Bloom, or... surely there must be other comp/EQ pedals out there. Still, this is MAGICAL.
OMG my favourite pedal
Great and informative. Who knew I needed to listen to a Harp player for pedal advice but I do.
Haha thank you so much!!!
Pedal addiction brought me here. Stayed for the Costco socks. And the beautiful music.
Lmfao the puma socks from costco!!!
I wondered what buffers and stuff you used for the harp, awesome!
"Russ, I think we should get a custom neon sign." "Okay, what should it say?" "'I don't know, something appropriate. Can you order one for us?" "Sure, Emily!" And the rest was history.
lmfaooo I'm SO glad he chose that and kept it a secret!!!
The Fuzzlords really should be the name of a band. Another great video - thank you!
HAHAH I'm surprised they don't already exist!! 😂❤️ thanks so much, Simon!! I hope you have a great weekend :)
@@emilyharpist - you're always welcome, and I shall. ☺
Fuzzy harp sounds really good too.
The EUNA is amazing. I’m buying another one once I can find one in stock. It’s impossible to overstate how much this improves the sound of my guitar. Thanks for doing this video - I never would have considered this otherwise. And thanks for showing what the pedal does as well as the sound comparison - that was perfect
It’s so good, Paul! I’m so happy you’re enjoying it, I kinda want a second one too 😏
@@emilyharpist Yeah I don’t ever want to not have one. I’ve always struggled with my guitars sounding bass heavy and too thick. For a while I was using overdrive pedals with the gain all the way down and the tone set bright but the EUNA…indescribably good
The EUNA is certainly one of, if not, the best input buffers out there. I am guessing you also have a high quality output buffer at the end of your pedal board as well. Having a high quality input and output buffer are crucial to having your pedal board sound as good as it can.
Just got one -- I'd gotten used to having my bitcrusher on ALL THE TIME and hadn't realized how muddy things were when it wasn't on.
love the clip of you being a cake-eating goblin, i related to it all too well
Lmaooo I am a cake goblin forever
that custom neon sign is really cool...
Love your enthusiasm,
stay passionate !
would be nice to have a compare to mic room (omni?) vs direct pedal sounds.
just to get an idea from raw to finished musical idea
Wonderful work as always. Thanks for including the spectrogram. So informative. Literally every pedal review should do that! Also thanks for calling out the fuzzlords. Its me. I'm the fuzzlords.
Hey I have those same black and grey PUMA socks! Great for pedal stompin'!
Spectrograph magic!
"love eating it in delicious cake form" Thank goodness I did not have coffee in my mouth. It would have been all over my computer.
BTW I AM a fuzz lover. Have about a dozen different fuzz pedals, just need a germanium to round out my collection...
HI RUSS!!!!
Oh you would love the sonic stomp
I totally have the same socks you are wearing when showing the board lol.
PUMA gang!!!
It's actually really similar to the way I use Klones as pre-amps, though I keep it post dirt and saturation.
I love all your videos, but this one gets it's like for the sneaky cake eating clip.
😂 😂
I like the patch in the end! What's that?
Thanks for doing this video. I own a few pedals with buffers already and you've definitely got me thinking about the 29. But I have a different question about your pedal board.
Something I've really thought about is your positioning of the excellent Milkman 100. Conventional wisdom tells us to run cab sims and OD pedals before delays, reverbs, granular pedals, etc. So I'm wondering where the Milkman amp / cab sim really is in your chain and why.
One big difference between you and a guitarist is the need for *clarity when playing complex, multi-voiced harmonies*. You're effectively playing the inside of a piano turned sideways in terms of the number of strings (not chromaticism, of course), while a guitarist is playing six at the most.
Generally, the more complex the harmonies that a guitarist plays, the lower the level of distortion has to be (which is why the engineer for My Bloody Valentine told me they worked on the guitar sound and mic placement for weeks: to get that balance between visceral distortion and seventh chords).
So I'm wondering if that need for clarity affects your placement of the amp, and where it really is in the chain. Also, I'm a piano player and keyboardist, so how musicians other than guitarists design their pedalboards is really important to me. Also, I've been wanting to buy a milkman myself! Thanks.
(Another question I have is whether your harp can be recorded in stereo and whether you would prefer a stereo buffer for that, e.g., the Empress Buffer+ Stereo.)
This is the first time I've actually heard the difference with the EUNA, which may be owing to the more dynamic and overall dark/subdued nature of the harp compared to electric guitars. It's especially important to consider (as you have) that even if you're using a compressor early in chain, the signal you feed into it has a massive influence on the signal coming out of the compressor.
May more pedals have Whatever jacks.
Fuzzlords bit killed me.
While I wouldn't necessarily want/need a EUNA, it works for you and other people I know, so I'm happy the pedal people are happy.
EDIT: Came to me right as I hit the save button. The EUNA is to pedals as Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 is to fragrances; it doesn't actually have an obvious signature, it just enhances what's already there.
Haha thanks!! Yeah, I can’t speak to EUNA on any other instrument but it’s INSANE on harp! Apparently the whatever Jack is pretty expensive to put in a pedal, but it’s so so cool!!!! #fuzzlords
Hey Emily, I'm kinda curious, do you still feel a noticable difference in clarity if you use a heavy fuzz or distortion (like the Hizumitar nor Nepenthes) after it? Just asking cause I mostly play doom and while I love tinkering around with fuzzes and distortions it's always a bit of struggle to retain clarity while not having a sound is too harh or treble-y. I'm currently using a JHS buffer at the beginning of my chain but I wonder if the EUNA would significantly change things.
I don't use long pedal chains, but I like your custom neon sign! 😄
Do you have a rig rundown video where you tell us about the Fairfield Circuitry and Empress pedals?
Hey!! I have a dedicated video for each of those explaining them, and I have a full rig rundown of my pedalboard!

Now i need to make some tube screamer cookies with pistachios.
hahah PLEASE DO!! I think we all need more pedal-themed bakery items in our lives for SURE 😂❤️
Em- I have a pedal kinda like that in my chain I can’t play without- it does a similar job, it’s a 1979 mxr micro amp- the one that’s so old it doesn’t have a light on it - lol
The Blanket is lifted!
I think my ODR-1 has a buffer, but I tend to prefer to go without a buffer. I actually like what the capacitance of my signal chain does to my sound.
I really wish I could find an ODR style drive that ran true bypass.
…and who wouldn’t want that harp to sound more better?
😊
Sounds like OTT hardware version, pretty damn cool.
CAKE!!!
I mean, EUNA!!!
Great video, explanation, and demonstration 😊
Thank you 🙏
On a side-note, there is an effects pedal maker over here in Oregon called Fuzzlord. Jason makes good stuff, especially if one is into heavy, tuned down, doom metal.
So there are Fuzzlords out there 😉
Be good to you!

@@scottkidwellmusic9175 I have a love/hate with YT and I don't do any other social media
Hi Emily! Thanks a lot for this video! I'm using these kind of granular delay stuff with my Arabic Oud and it seems it could help the sound of the Oud to clear up. 29 pedals is suggesting also their Output Amp at the end of the chain. I guess this is in your case what the Milkman does. Am I right? Best regards maiki
Thanks Markus!! I haven’t tried the OAMP yet - I know it can help with cable runs going from your pedalboard into your amp - since the Milkman IS my amp, I don’t think I really have to worry about that. But if your amp is not on your pedalboard, then I definitely think it’s worth it to try one! I can’t say too much more than that because I’ve never owned one or tried it, but I hear really wonderful things about OAMP
Dear Emily, Thanks a lot for your answer. Ah.. The Milkman is your Amp... I usually go into an AER Classic Combo and from there into the PA. That would mean another 300€ for the OAmp (not owning the Input Amp yet).. well... Life's too short for mumbling sounds, so I'm going to get some more students.. 😅 Thanks and Happy Easter
After seeing the pedal board walkthrough video I was kinda curious what you'd consider your essential "minimalist" board, if you were going to build that. Obviously the EUNA sounds like an auto-include, and it sounds like the eq and compressor are pretty essential, is there a can't-live-without-it effect, or at least a if-we-had-to-pick-one effect?
That is SUCH a tough question!! I think limiting it to 5 or so pedals, I would have to say EUNA, Bass Comp, Avalanche Run, Dark Star, Microcosm. If I had to choose ONE effect, maybe microcosm!!
Euna pedal...all ears on this episode. ✌️🎸😎🎸I have a live off the floor session this session....do you have a spare hanging around ? Translation....I think I need to purchase one of these as I use pedals for my sound.
"fuzz lord" yea alright I can live with that
😂
2:14 What's the app you're using for spectral analysis?
Don’t feed the fuzz Lords after dark… or after input buffers
😂❤️
Empress and Fairfield in the same shot... that's a lot of love for the Ottawa area! 🫠
Hi, Ive been wanting to use effects with my pedal harp for a while and was wondering if you have any recommendations for pickups? I know you mentioned in your distortion video that you have 4 pickups, but do you have any recommendations for specific pickups I should buy and whether I should I buy multiple?
Hey! The pickups I use with my harps are all factory-built, so they were installed already when I purchased my harps! I would highly recommend getting a factory installed pickup if you can, as I’ve had one that I installed myself many years ago that did not sound good..
The 4 split outputs is, I believe, a feature of only my specific harp Camac model. I’ve never seen another harp model with split outputs, and I’d have no idea how to install that yourself!!
Wow, this competes with the BBE Sonic Stomp Sonic Maximiser for simple EQ that makes everything sound gooder.
Hey Emily Hopkins and Russ! I hope all your solders look like mt Fuji! Ride ride ride!
hahah thank you so much Eric!! we hope you have a great weekend; thanks for being here with us today!! 🥰❤️
It would be a cool thing to compare the buffer in this pedal to say, a regular non-optimized buffer in a less expensive form, like say an EQ pedal first in chain. See if you can get a recording that shows not just how awesome it sounds to turn this pedal on, but putting ANY reasonable buffer in your pedal board at head of chain. For example, a Boss EQ pedal.
Yes!! I have this planned for a future video! Stay tuned
You beat me to it. Buffers are amazing.
@@emilyharpist I use a Pure Tone buffer from TrueTone. At $59.99 it’s relatively inexpensive. It’s small and simple - input/output and power. Wah and fuzz face (true bypass) go first, then the buffer. I’m thinking about adding another one to try after overdrives and distortion OR right at the end to drive my amp. Just a suggestion …
@@chipsterb4946 similar to what I was thinking when I watched the video - this does what a buffer does, but is $270
@@sim0n17 yes, and the price was a bit stunning. Especially with such simple EQ controls. It does sound great here, but I’d like to see it compared to a simple buffer and 7 or 10 band equalizer.
My preferred prefix is now and forever “fuzzlord”
LMFAOOO 😂❤️❤️❤️
How does this work if you are using separate pickups from your harp? This looks perfect for my dulcimer rig (your before clips had the same issue my dulcimer signal has), but I run two pickups. Do you sum the pickups together for this board?
I only need to put my harp’s one soundboard pickup into Euna - I send my bass pickup through a signal chain where it doesn’t need it as bad. I’m not exactly sure how it would handle summing a few pickups but I’m sure it would be fine! I can definitely try!
Awesome! It would be great if it could handle that, as It would be stretching my budget enough to get one, let alone two! You're the best!
Hooking pickups in parallel before the buffer will cause the pickups to load each other, as the pickups will have lower impedance than the buffer/preamp/pedal you plug into. This will noticeably reduce the clarity of the sound. How do you have them hooked up currently?
It seems like the idea is similar with source audio Zio (and I'm aware Zio came later)
I wonder how they'd compare as well
I’ve never tried that one!! This is actually the first time I’m hearing of if 🤔 I’m honestly confident EUNA would be better based on the high quality components alone but now I really want to make a comparison!!
Came for the tone, stayed for the cake
lmaooo it was the best cake
I tink it's da socks doin it. :). Best Regards!
tone is in the SOCKS!!!!

I was waiting for the halloween theme to kick in. Then it turned into something beautiful. All I could picture was a confused Michael myers in a meadow of happiness.
Maybe someday you could play my all time favorite harp song?! ¡La Bamba!
Your music rules i can say you are like the frippatronics of harp we should call you harpstronics. I like your ambient sound i myself are heavy into electronic and ambient music. I can compare you to the steve roach of harp keep up good work
Very cool channel. Do you do session work for hire?
Cool! I hope it would work to plug my boss into EUNA and maybe make him clearer and better sounding.
