    Especially all of you for watching :)
    We could not do any of this without you.
    Thank you so much for following all these crazy projects we embark on with this channel.
    Part two comes out next week!
    Also, we're giving away all the individual boards if you want one...
    Enter for one of those here: www.sweetwater.com/giveaway?
    Just wait til you show up to band practice with an all distortion board.

    I like how the performance was like: 23:05 Experiencing a calm and relaxing life at the start, but something's off, subtle indications of ruin and we're ignoring it. And then the realization hits 26:30, everything suddenly falls apart in a nuclear blast. Good feelings gone, sirens blaring, radios full static, and people screaming in the distance- before finally succumbing to the radiation 28:38.
    This song sounds like the Cold War's worst fear realized.

  • @cevune-8652
    @cevune-8652 3 года назад +87

    I love how after a certain point no more input is necessary. The sound becomes self-sustaining. It's like the signal chain achieves self awareness and is just screaming.
    Also: Somehow I doubt this is where they went with this... But if it were me and they have a physical storefront, I would line the floorboards with these pedals in the sales room so that customers could plug up and check any combination of effects they're interested in buying. Have some direct hands on demos to prompt sales. It's one thing to try a pedal in a vacuum, but to be able to say "well I already have X Y and Z pedals, how does the corporatron soundamajig box work with them?" that would lead to some inspiration and impulse buys.

    The first time I watched this video I didn’t even realize they had a light show going. I was so awestruck by how many and how expensive it was. Watching it again and experience the whole thing it felt like going through a chill wormhole that slowly warps into something psychedelic. Then all of a sudden you are dropped down into a nightmarish hell scape of a dimension as your ears slowly adjust and hear all of the agony and screams of the tortured damned as you slowly go mad and the sound of hell changes ever so slightly. And then you suddenly burst awake with dreadful buzzing in your ear and you can’t tell what is going on but every time you close your eyes you see the nightmare you just woke up from and hear the congealed sound of pain, agony and hundreds of tortured souls lashing out. Was this all for real or just some kind of hell? This was an unforeseen future nestled somewhere in time, welcome, to the Twilight Zone.

    I'm extremely impressed that the signal travels fast enough to be on time with you playing. It's being processed thru so many pedals and traveling such an immense distance, I would've figured there would be a second or two delay between you hitting a note, and sound actually coming out of the amps lol
