Playing short notes/ blues licks wwith a modulated delay doesnt do this pedal justice, this is meant for ringing chords and picking patterns using ope, using drone notes etc... you missed the point with the fuzz factory 7 doing the same thing rather than going for queens of the stone age power chords, drop D stuff, or muse like riffs etc .... Certain pedals require certain styles to be effective, and this pedal combined with delays or shimmer reverb etc is amazing...its an ambient tool/texture device
@BudgetPedalChap it's not recordings from me but of a few reviews covering what I meant, Perry Frank, and the pedal couple get really amazing sounds out of it and a few of the other videos are of the zvex fuzz which the demonfx fuzz is a clone of showing how riffing with it gets the most from it :) hope it helps as your reviews for other drive pedals etc are great and I have used them in helping me decide on a few pedals so keep up the good work (Mariana+wonderland) ruclips.net/video/jQIr1w5X7SU/видео.html Zvex muse style ruclips.net/video/7VFpQNY-HJ8/видео.html Zvex queens of the stone age ruclips.net/video/HMKc-2WfzwU/видео.html Perry Frank MARIANA ruclips.net/video/ylBqfRYGQuQ/видео.html The best fuzzfactory review, just bexause aome of the guys riffs sound nuts lol ruclips.net/video/LHhqbDBkchY/видео.html PEDAL COUPLE MARIANA REVIEW skip to about 6minutes in ruclips.net/video/doTMOz4x4SI/видео.html
I'm mostly a blues player and while I love using this pedal for the sounds it gets, it's not really much use for the type of stuff I do. *If you're looking for creating soundscapes though, this pedal is incredible* There are videos on RUclips demonstrating its capabilities better than this.
I can only do what I can do. I'm glad there are other demos out there demonstrating it in different styles. I think the points raised about having a dedicated mix knob are still valid, it'd make it more useful in more contexts.
Ive never played a verb pedal. Ive only ever used the tank in my amps. I do have a Shaky Jimi (which by the way was the 1st pedal I bought because of your demo specifically way back) that accompanied with an Echoos delay can do similar things to this pedal. I don't think this one was bad but I'll generally agree with the consesus that this one isn't for me.
The shaky Jimi, what a pedal! I bet you get loads of control over the signal with that combination, where I think that's the issue with this is. If it had a dedicated mix control then most of these settings would be usable
I'm guessing this is reasonably priced, for which I would take a few redundant modes. I suppose the crazy vibrato modes might sound okay if you're using it on simple, sustained chords. Have you tried it on bass?
It's very reasonably priced for sure. I've not tried it on bass. I think having no mix control would make it difficult to use on bass. It's very close to being great, but it's not quite there yet
Funny, as soon as you shared up the modes image I thought “hmmm those are odd control choices”. Some of those modes have some real potential. The Kraken could be great if you spent some time with it.
I've almost bought this many times but always held back, the idea of these modulations sounds cool but i've never heard a review that makes it actually sound good. So sad because it was a huge swing and a miss in my opinion. I want companies like caline making strange, weird pedals, so I hope they keep doing down this path, but just this one was not the one lol.
I think with a bit of refining, this could be great. As it stands, it's just a bit too whacky and lacks the real control you need to make it work well. I hope they keep to it too, they are doing good work
Ffs this is the first time I have ever felt nauseous from sound. I'm not joking. Right when you called it sickly I noticed. This one is far from perfect but could totally have a place in a lot of applications.
Ooh dayum, I had a tremolo that made my friend feel sick on one of these demos. First time a reverb has done it. It's a crazy sound for sure but it does a thing
problem here is your amp is out shining your pedal i hear the amps sound more then pedal i don't use an amp when making video i just use a pedal plugged into sound interface get the full sound of pedal as a pedal will sound different on each amp as your amp will add a tone on top of the tone this is why people have mixed reviews after buying a pedal it sounds good till you put it in your setup
Hear me out, I hate how this'n sounds with my guitars and bass BUT I love how I sound syncing this up with my bass clarinet through a microphone. That sounds like a dark god on the ocean floor waking up confused and seething with rage and I love it.
That's a fantastic description! Yeah, the sound in it aren't bad, they just lack the control to make them useful for most. Who knew Caline were going for the bass clarinet market all along? 🤣

If you'd like to record some examples of how you think it should be demoed, drop it in the comments and I'll check it out 👍

You are detailing the stark difference between a guitarist and a musician
Man, this answered all my questions
Were your questions 'why is c not always mix?' because mine was 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, it's one of those pedals that you need to sit with and work at. There are some modes with real potential
As Anatoly Dyatlov would say, not great, not terrible! 😂. Artwork feels very Nirvana/Nevermind inspired too.
It definitely feels inspired by the nevermind art work huh?
@@BudgetPedalChapjust a tad 😂
Dyatlov would pass on this pedal
Yeah, not all winners but some are decent
Yeah, there are some nice sounds in it if you work with the pedal
Another great demo...the good the bad the ugly all there 😊 not on my gotta have list but a great demo!!! Thanks
It's got some tones in it, but you gotta dig deep to find em. Suppose the name is apt then 🤣🤣

Do you know any fuzz that have bigmuff on one button and fuzz face on the other that is affordable?
Not footswitchable, but there is a video that I've recorded coming up that has a pedal that does muff and tone bender modes 👍
What's the pedal name so i can search it?@@BudgetPedalChap

I had to skip forward on that part for the same reason 😂

You think? I considered this quite a colourful reverb and often found myself wanting to bring the mix down
6:30 😂 Yes thank you I am one of those someones
It takes all sorts eh 🤣🤣
Bunch of these hard to listen to modes would be much cooler if the effects only affected the Reverb
I think they do, but you can't adjust the mix. It's very saturated and so it takes over the sound a bit too much
It’s the type of pedal that you use on one bit of one song but occupies board space the rest of the time
Yeah some of the modes feel like that for sure
I found one setting that I leave on as a chorus. The other ones don't see any action.
@@peteywheatstraws4909 the amount of control you get on some of the sounds just isn't enough. If they has a dedicated mix control, it would help
wish it was stereo or at least had stereo out
That would have been a nice touch tbf

The pedal is fantastic if one knows how to use it....Just saying.
If you want to put a link to your video using it correctly here, I'll gladly give it a watch to see where I went wrong.
A couple really good-sounding effects but not seven good-sounding effects.
Yeah, completely agree. There are a few really useable tones in there, but you have to search for them
😢
It's not for me, but if you enjoy it. Go ahead 👍
