Walrus Audio just nails reverb consistently
13:15-14:55 is easily the most beautiful thing I’ve heard all week. Sounds like the ending to a really bittersweet movie.
Soooo smooth and beautiful! Inspired!!!
This starts as a pedal demo then morphs into a showcase for a stunningly talented composer.
Bea’s ambient playing just has this healing effect on your soul. Can’t get enough of this!
Agreed! :)
Perfect display of the type of playing and voicings for this pedal! Superb and inspiring!
Totally agreed
13:10. If you needed a reason to cry, there it is. Probably one of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard.
Wellin up over here😢. I just unboxed mine. Stereo rig is me the next few hrs.
it's basically Sprained Ankle by Julien Baker
Benjamin Blake this turned me on to julien baker. Previously had only known her through her amazing cover bad things to good people
Have you ever thought of just doing a straight up post-rock EP that’s not as heavy as Toska? More in the vain of Explosions in the Sky, This Will Destroy You, etc?
TWDY is half the reason I’m getting this pedal lol. That and my love for post rock in general.
The SLÖ has become the most integral part of my rig. It's one of the most emotive pedals I've ever played. The dream reverb is 70% of "my sound".
This is so dreamy... it's so ethereal... just so calming... (also Rabea is so eloquent when he talks, as well as telling us every last detail on the subject he talks about... he is so good at explainng stuff...)..
Best demo of this pedal on RUclips. I've owned this pedal a year and didn't realise it had as much versatility as it does
I've had one of these for a few months now, but have never really exposed all it's capable of. Glad to watch this again to understand how to access the different waves and get an idea of what each knob does. I appreciate it.
Really appreciate the preparation, usage and musical ideas you put into reviews.
From 12:30 you reminded me of my Father. He died 4 years ago. Thanks man!
Jesus Rabea, the part starting at 13:15 is yet another proof of how brillant and inspiring your ambient style is, I'm in love !
I could listen to you play on the dream setting for ages! Fantastic!
Dang i'll admit I want one of these! Amazing playing buddy.
Thank you man! Hope all is well with you dude
Rabea Massaad hey dude I live in Weybridge and you’ve got me wanting to go back into my guitar playing. Had it stall a few years ago but Im definitely going to pop into Andertons and grab a new amp and this pedal. Massive fan of Slash, Saliva, Pulse Ultra so eyeing up the orange crc60 amp. Great videos BTW very informative and love that mellow playing.
Did u get one? Worth it?
I just got my hands on this pedal and it has unlocked sooo much potential for me. Would recommend 100% of the time
Just woke up. Last night I was watching a vid on a textural modular synth. Didn’t understand shit at all but this is more like it. Loving the vids m8 🤘🏽
Thank you for this vid Rabea, and dig your playing also.
this is seriously the best pedal ive ever used and you did a great job of showing off its useful extremes. the dream setting is my fave, but only with subtle vibrato. you can hit some otherwise unattainable stuff....if you dial down tone it takes edge off of vibrato....combine with another vibrato for vinyl warp..... crazy what i can evoke from it.... seriously tho, your playing here opened my eyes and ears to even more potential. thanks!
That's a special sounding thing. Love your note/chord choice.
Just wanted to say thanks for keeping us sane with these videos and I’ve ordered a Slö from Andertons based on your vids
Yö knö nöthin Jon Slö
(Cool pedal btw, I think I want one!)
Perfect for an ageing player like me whose arthritic fingers means I need to use more space and ambient effects in my playing. Great pedal.
That was the best demo and ambient music i've heard wow! I want this pedal. I'm sold.
wow, this thing sounds incredible!
Thank you for a wonderful demonstration of this fabulous sounding pedal. I really enjoyed the fact you tailored your playing to the strengths of the pedal. I subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work, sir!
Just picked one up! Super excited to try it out!
Best in depth video I’ve seen on this pedal 👌🏻
I'm sold completely. I love this.
Very nice. Love hearing all these options in one box. I usually have to bring a Mooer Slo-Gear with either a Shimverb, or a Ghost Trails to get all this. Well done.
Don’t watch this video at work. Definitely fell asleep to that gorgeous playing!
Excellent demo, you played he perfect music to suit the effect.
the best reverb i ever heard ! i will buy it this week
I’ve watched loads of reviews of this where the guitarists just attempt to play ambient style riffs whilst fiddling the knobs around. You however seem to have a telepathic link to this pedal. Really really lovely playing.
Rabea, that piece you started playing at 13:20 is positively gorgeous.
AHHH I ordered my stuff today!!! I'm so excited!
Do you like the pedal? I don't know if there was something wrong with mine but sound was so cheap and lifeless. Compared to source audio colllined and Neunaber, slo sounded bad, I returned
Been trying to find a nice natural sounding ambient reverb for a while, thanks Bea
My order for this pedal was just placed based on your review. Thanks 😊
The slö is only reverb pedal I’ve ever really liked. So much so that I’ve got 2 on my board running in series (generally one on dark,one on rise).
Such an inspiring pedal.
bought it because of this video... amazing sound and playing
I know I’m LATE to this video, but I’ve wanted one of these since they came out and I’m about to get one. I loved the demo as well.
I think an album of Rabea ambient tunes would be good for my soul
beautiful playing and sounds
Amazing pedal and great demo bro.
I liked this review, nothing flashy but full of the stuff a potential buyer would want to know ... and a fun relaxed presentation. The SLO pedal is smokin'
I just bought one. Just left the music store and I ordered a Orange Rocker 32 all tube amp with stereo FX loop. Can’t wait...I’m stoked!!!
Only just found your channel Rabea - but really enjoy it - thanks mate
First video I've seen of yours.. excellent demo and great explanations.
Rob Frank dude he is my go to for reviews. His tone and playing is phenomenal. Hands down my favorite tones.
Love it. Perfect pedal for performing Jeff Beck’s ‘Where were you?’ Can’t think of higher praise for an ambient tone, albeit you’d need a trem.
super helpful video, thanks boss!
One of these and a decent tape delay and you are in absolute ambient heaven guys......
Fricking awesome!!! I know this has been asked before, but you need to release an EP or Album filled with these ambient tunes you write! LOVE this stuff!!
Doomsday, Inc. totally want to purchase this ep!!!
Yeah I was just thinking the same thing. I would play this in my car as well as the high gain soloing over loops with ambient chords in the background.
@@jordandangelo180 my thoughts exactly
Great pedal and great playing
pedal rocks can't decide between this and the fathom but damn that into the rig tele tone is fire! perfect crunch.
17:21... Cannot get over how beautiful that was
Seriously, dude. Bea, if you just put out an hour long video of you laying down ambient tones and noodles like this, I'd watch it daily.
Andrew with some slow electronic beats.
it can means dull or lazy, wich is a very good way to describe this reverb, it creates a chaos bed behind your sound and fulls the sound in a certain way, i'd love it!
10:33 those swells bro, I almost cried lol added to cart lmao!
Wonderful sound man !
I was on the fence about buying this but I think I’m sold on this now. Cheers friend.
Backing track at start of video is awesome
Danke, super Demo!
Im thinking this is a one shot U2 pedal, loved the vibrato & sustain function.
Picked up their fathom pedal a few months ago and I immediately fell in love with it, but apparently walrus wants more of my money....
That tele is a monster!
Guess I'm going to have to purchase this now.
Just ordered mine !
Excellent demo
Just want to say how much I’m enjoying this demo. I’m new to Ambient Guitar and am looking for reverb pedals. This one and the Afterneath are going to be my first purchase along with a Mission Engineering volume pedal.
Cheers Rabea. Best in depth review of this pedal out there.
Seems to be so adaptable too. I can see myself using this not just for ambient guitar based tunes - but also for braindance/AFX style tracks. - This sort of thing seems excellent for electronic musicians who happen to play guitar, but not keyboards(!) (the 100% wet mix function is always nice to see demo'd on pedals capable of it, and so often missed out in such reviews)
Perhaps point this use-case out to the Capt (I'm sure there are many more like me.. caught between his guitar channel and his electronic music channel), and then perhaps he may not be so.. unsure.. of the audience for ambient reverbs and some of the better guitar synths! :)
Ordered one from Ander-tones yesterday, came back to drop this comment: This full function review and sound demo was the difference between me simply walking on by, or instead actually dropping £180 sight unseen on a pedal.. But without wishing to sound like some sort of advert myself.. so just to say it was intended as honest feedback for yourself and your colleagues. Thanks again for the vid. ☮
Edit: spelling
That is one of the coolest sounding stompoxes I've ever heard. I need one. Ambient oriental sounds would go so well with this.
Rabea the ambient God
Bought me a Slö 3 month ago. What should I say.....a guitar, amp, the Slö, an analog delay, a looper like the ditto, perhaps an overdrive and you' re perfect equipped for really any kind of ambient music straight up to psychedelia...all the way up from early 70ties Pink Floydish music to more modern material like, for example, Radiohead Songs.
The Slö is made of high quality, the box itself and also the sound of the reverb. It' s functionally reliable.
The only small criticism i' ve to make is, that you can't turn the modulation completely off, if you like, and that's impossible to store a modulation setting.
When you turn the Slö off, your setting is erased.
It's also a bit fumbly to fix a certain modulation by turning the depth knob simultanously with holding the bypass switch pressed.
But that's not a geat thing!
All in all it' s a very great device if - and that's s really important! - you' re NOT looking for standard reverb sounds!! -
There are no presets like "spring", "room", "hall" or anything like that and the Slö isn't designed to create such sounds!
I've got another reverb for these reverbs.
But if you're out for experimental, ambient, strange and "cosmic" sounding sound textures THIS IS THE DEFINITELY ULTIMATE REVERB FOR YOU!
- Look out for outer space tranquility with this astonishing sounding device - it's really unique!-
Keep rocking thru your dream times with a Slö!
Andy from germany
PS: Tipp for "soundscape-hunters" or ambient-creators: I completed my "ambient-tool-kit" by adding a *Boss SY-1-Guitar-synth-pedal* and play it (with selected delay effects) into the Slö: This offers a great amount of splendid possibilities! - Try it out! Crazy things may happen! Unlimmited sound possibilities!
I am the Walrus Audio!
I also have a subsequent 37. Just bought this pedal, and I'm looking forward to using it with the Moog :)
Yes I'd like one
Came here for a pedal demo, not a lump in my throat (Anderton's gang never had that effect before)
Damn son..... You'll be a bona fide legend one day playing if you put out a whole album of that
Jeez... Haunting stuff, it ain't all pedal!
I just want a whole album of this! 😩
Damn, and here I've been dreaming about the Fathoms... Looks like I'll have to get both eventually.
Damn... New fav
Damn.. My son has been sick for the last couple of days. And my wife just sent me a video of him feeling better and playing outside, and I was watching it on 18:25 ... damn it was emotional!
12:25 - I didn't know you liked NBC! 😜
I think this pedal alone would be incredible on a Toska release, for the bits between the songs that eventually bleed into riffs. Sounds epic!
I left this playing while I did other things and the improv at 13:00 totally freaked me out because I thought I'd put an album on. Damn your playing is inspired!
I want one, so nice and deep... and clean.🥺🥺
Rabz led me down a rabbit’s black hole.
I’ll buy that.
Just got one January 2021. AMAZING!
Along with your own stuff you can really get some good Pink Floyd and Zeppelin tones.
Hi in my place the price is almost same as hallof fame 2 , does lack of stereo in walrus slow a big drawback for ambient music ?
Fathom vs Slö would be pretty cool. Lofi is pulling me towards Fathom, while Dream is pulling me to Slö.
Is this the same pedal you use for Toska? Because it sounds so fucking good. I've been in love with your tone since your guy's first album and I've been planning to get to change my rig just because of it. Cheers dude.
Man I need this pedal so bad.
Thank you for the great videos always Rabea.
Did you try Mathews the astronomer ? I'm wondering between those two!
Thanks
Instead of playing the actual pedal on my board I’m watching him do it better 😂 it’s inspirational that’s all maybe I can be that one day
FYI Slö is swedish for Slow/lazy
Jonka Olofsson as a swede i might have to replace my rv6 with this. Or rymdklang.
And also swedish for "dull", as in a dull knife edge.
'Slow and lazy' that is my tree!!
That's where I live - "slow and/or lazy" (not Sweden)
It can also mean dumb 😂
Thanks for this. I just bought one and I was having a bit of buyers remorse. But having seen this I understand it's potential a lot better. I disagree that it's an easy to use pedal tho'. It has a LOT of functionality.
Tele, reverb, ambient...what more do we need? Thx for vid.! have a nice day!! I ll buy this SLO one :D
Another great vid! Thanks! But this just made it harder for me to choose between the Fathom or this one 🙃 Know they're two different pedals - but if you could only choose one what would it be?
I love how you can do swells without using the volume knob when using that reverb pedal.
Well, he used a volume pedal didn't he? O.o
@@majkon93 No, I don't think so. He had it set to 100% wet on the "rise" setting, which resulted in outputting only the swells created by the pedal.
Holy fuckballs, that's amazing! Why do I have to love reverb pedals so much?😭😭😭 I literally just got an Old Blood Noise Endeavors Dark Star like 2 days ago. Now I want a Slö too!!! First world problems.🤣🤣
Id like to see a shoot out between the SLÖ and the Fathom!
They are both amazing, I have both but the Slo really excels at ambient stuff. You certainly can do ambient with the Fathom, but this one....its literally a dreamscape in a box. Unreal.
This "shootout" wouldn' t be needful, because both devices have different purposes, so it would not make a big sense to compare them to each other!
The "Fathom" mainly addresses users who like to have those standard reverb Sounds like "hall","room", "plate" (and a little more...), the "Slö" doesn't have these "Standard reverb" presets, because it is designed for concrete ambient music, psychedelia and related kinds of musical applications. Instead of the named presets, the "Slö" comes with large, modulated cathedral-like reverb sounds which can be manipulated in many ways to create fantastic soundcapes above and beyond all conventions!
ruclips.net/video/cWhDoYgMcng/видео.html
@ I am still trying to decide whether I want the Fathom or Slo. I thank you for affirming my thoughts on the two. I love the sounds from both pedals though.
@@steverherb I have the Fathom, and I am getting the Slö. Love them both
Your ambient tone is so fucking cool! 😍, i wanna enter to the djent world and really wanna learn to dial a “djent” clean tone and combine it with a little “80's thrash metal” cleans
Hey great review I'm definitely buying this pedal now. Was hoping u could do a review of the Marshall dsl 100 HR. Would like your opinion on it . Maybe a shootout between the 100 HR and your jvm.?? Thanks
20 seconds in and I want this pedal and a chapman M3 modern to play through it
