  • These are the Vox Pedals Silk Drive and Cutting Edge!
    This is part two of a 2 part series on the VOX Valvenergy pedals.
    Three output modes allow you to use this as a standard pedal, a line-level preamp, and a direct amp-sim using the built-in analog cabinet simulator. Use STANDARD mode with your normal guitar rig to totally transform your amp, or use PREAMP or CAB-SIM mode while recording directly into your audio interface. In each mode, the all-analog design and active EQ allow you to perfectly dial in the sound you need in any situation.
    The Channel Link feature allows you to chain two or more Valvenergy pedals together, through the Link jack of each pedal. Using a with a standard 1/8” stereo cable will link 2 pedals, and using a stereo 1/8” splitter will link 3 or 4 pedals. This allows you to turn one pedal on while bypassing the others, as if you were switching between channels of a guitar amp.
    These pedals are equipped with a high-contrast OLED display showing an oscilloscope, a visual indication of how the waveform is affected by the knob settings. This display allows shows which mode you are currently using.

    I love the silk drive, it really does has a warm tone that really stands out. Both seem to hang on to clarity nicely when you rev them up. You seemed to really enjoy the silk drive Jon. Wonderful playing. Now I want two of them 😀😂👍👍👍

    Another great review; I’m looking for a tube overdrive to stack other drives into and this is a serious contender! Thanks for putting this together Jon, kind regards from New Zealand.

    Will keep the Copperhead & the Silk in mind, Jon, thanks for going through them all. Glad the new Enya is working out for the live show, it should be a good one with the New Year & some brighter prospects ahead.

    I own a Silk Drive pedal, which I primarily use as a clean amp substitute when I play at places with only a PA, and secondarily as an overdrive pedal when there is an amp, and the Silk Drive sounds phenomenal in both applications. I actually like the oscilloscope, it's fun to watch! The display isn't educational but I enjoy seeing it react to the different pedals I put before it. This pedal excels at what it's aimed to do, but I wish Vox did a better job of defining it's purpose and marketed it better. Thanks for this video, hope this helps more people buy them and experience these wonderful pedals so that Vox doesn't discontinue them like so many of their innovations...

    Korg have done a great job with these new Vox pedals.
    I don't own any pedals, but these are very tempting, if only they could combine them all into
    a new Vox multi-effects unit with a large display.
    Your clean playing is superb as always.
    Have a great New Year Jonathan.

    I saw these in City music the other day and was intrigued. I wish Vox had ditched the little display and reduced the price a tad bit.

    Hi Jonathan. I love your reviews. I know it's not a equal comparison, but what is your impression of the tone quality you get from the Nux Pedals Solid Studio compared to the Vox pedals? That silk pedal sounds really nice, but can you get that tone in the Nux pedal as well? I just ordered the Nux, but now I am wondering if the vox pedals are better.

    • @JonIsJustTooLoud
      @JonIsJustTooLoud  3 года назад

      Very different usage...yu can still use the vox pedals with the SoildStudio ✌♥

    Is the Silk drive a dumble amp mod?

    • @josephwright5921
      @josephwright5921 7 месяцев назад +1

      A lot of people are saying that it is based upon a Dumble, but other people are saying it is a Fender emulation.

    Hey Jonathan, which would you say would be best going into the front of an amp? Revv G3, or the Vox Cutting Edge. I haven't found anyone's opinion comparing those yet.

      Great tones & as always you make pedals sound greater! I just got the mystic edge & was well worth it.Also got the Octanaut Hyperdrive & was disappointed as it lacked in drive or sustain & feel.
