PRO-TIP #6: the overall best expression pedal, in my opinion, is the Moog EP-3.

@@rckilmore It's been compatible with everything I've tried to use it with, it's never broken across however many gigs, and it has a passive knob for reducing its range, which comes in handy sometimes
I’ve always enjoyed your deep dives into controls and ways to use gear in novel ways, but this one in particular is giving me all of the mad scientist ideas. Nicely done.
I’ve got a modeler/multi FX pedal with expression pedal and I haven’t used it to it’s potential. It’s able to do what you’ve described here without extra stuff….and now I need to go play guitar!
I have searched endless videos to try and grasp the understanding of what an expression pedal is, as well as what it does or should do. And up until youtubes algorithms recommended your video, I couldn't quite decipher what I was hearing from a plethora of different sources, but then it all made sense after watching this.You made it easy to understand and exciting to experiment with, (now that I know how to use it). So, thank you for leaving the video online because I've learned so much.
I found you thru your PS-6 video not too long after you put it out way back when. I also use the Ramper with mine. ( I'm using it with my SY-1 right now tho)
Best expression pedal...wah wah Low pass filter, high pass filter, band pass filter, before fuzz, after fuzz, between 2 fuzz boxes [ phaser like]. In the fx loop of a delay. Before envelope filter, after envelope filter...
Excellent chanel man!! Enjoyng it very much... Usefull tips, good reviews, very cool and bizarre edition and great playing/taste in selection of songs 10/10
I have 3 for my Riverside, Oceans 12 and my Belle Epoch Deluxe...My sounds can be limitless. I have metered delays reverbs pitch shifters tape and digital delays I have tremelos from subtle to step no direct. Octavers and Shimmer as well as reverse delay and reverse reverb I have to get rid of my MAudios thay are pretty cheap. Thanks for the heads up on that Moog EP-3 And I get All this with zero patch saves.
@@CyberattackWorld a million things to do. I often experiment with my line6 hxfx controlling many effects or better parameters from effects at the same time. And everything should have a random knob in my opinion ;-).its just inspiring to see how you are thinking. So thanks a lot!
I use ProTools when I need like a real DAW that has features and everything, but whenever possible I just use GarageBand because I think it's faster and easier. If you have GarageBand, I recommend it, otherwise I recommend using the cheapest, easiest option, why not.

Brother, i cannot even begin to describe how cool your channel is. Thank you
glad you're enjoying it man
EXP pedals setups are always ignored by pedal reviews and instructions. Even Boss pedals glaze over the capabilities even though it unlocks GOD mode.
Brilliant discussion of how to use exp pedals *musically*. You should have 500k viewers, man. ❤❤❤

Really like the ramper/Harmonist thing. The Expression Ramper from OBNE is great value.
OBNE's Ramper makes me want expression on nearly every pedal.
The Great Error In the Sky was amazing :D
Thanks for the video. Very useful as always.

Oh man, that double reverb thing at the end is such a great idea! 👌
Jolly valuable content!
Edit: and wonderful phrasing!
Glad, I found that channel!
WOW that reverb sound at the end! I need to dive into the Alexander world as soon as I can. Terrific video as always :)
great points here, and the spooky animations are NEXT LEVEL🎉❤🎉
Great info and artistry. Thank you!
Amazing use cases/info here!
Awesome ... Expression Pedal is a must have if your Pedal Supports it ... Made a Huge difference with my C4 !!!
Fantastic video Cyber! Muy bueno :)
Any video where you say "Cube mode", I'm in. Hahaha love the video man. I have that moog expression pedal, but now I think I need that syntax error...
Expression pedals are so much fun, and the Expressionator is a little slice of heaven. It does everything you could ask for, and more!
Great episode. Thanks

Awesome thanks.
What an amazing Beck cover! 😍
i'm glad you caught that
I think I'm in love with that fifth/octave combination, but it makes me kind of nervous to say so
what if it's wrong
My favorite thing now is to guess the songs, you play cause I can feel the use of the effect more, and Pro Tip #5 is I Think I’m in Love from Beck!
glad ya caught that
Best expression pedal...wah wah

Great video, especially the part about phrasing. Would love to see what you can do with an ehx 8 step program. Think I'm gonna buy a moog ep3 now.
EP-3 is the key to life.
also yes the EHX 8-step looks super cool

Guile quoting Toejam is like using an expression pedal to control a modulation pedal.
Thank you for understanding what's going on this deeply
Great video, I'm gonna go play GTA 3 now
great!!! please do more of this expression tips!!!
this is literally everything i have to say on the subject, but if i learn any more cool tricks for expression pedals i'll make another video

@@CyberattackWorldI’d love to hear what you’d do with that new Old Blood Noise pedal (MTET)
Man this makes me miss my DIG. By far the best sounding delay I've ever used. Good stuff man!
you could enjoy the moog mp-201 old and still amazing
o brasil te ama ! seloko ! ja mandei seu canal pra todos meus amigos kkkkkkkkkkk
I’ve found I love expression knobs more than pedals. I just have to replace the stock knob with one that is 2 1/2”.
Damn it!!! I want that guitar… wish it were a production model.
feel free to hit up my guy Alex at Iron Horse Instruments, he rules
Yoooo what a banger at 4:50
Is there a product you recommend to run one expression pedal for several pedals?
I like to use my obne ramper on A B mode with my afterneath to make it sound like I'm taking off in a space ship.
correct
Do you know how to stop my Steve vai expression pedal to stop making liek a tapping sound when I put my heel down
i have no idea i'm sorry
What DAW do you use? Would you recommend it to a noob?
I use ProTools when I need like a real DAW that has features and everything, but whenever possible I just use GarageBand because I think it's faster and easier. If you have GarageBand, I recommend it, otherwise I recommend using the cheapest, easiest option, why not.
Excellent!
