    Picked mine up last week. I’ve been searching for this kind of pedal for years. Started with the Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl MKII, moved on to the Hungry Robot Wardenclyffe and now I’m here and I’m at peace ❤️

    Hi… that lead guitar composition is so so nostalgic and ethereal… something that Ennio Morrison’s or Nina Rota would have done for a Antonioni or Fellini film. TeFi’s Italianness has been greatly taken to next level…. Hats off! Meisterwerke

    Superb composition Ryan at the beginning, great use of the pedals sounds and tones. The pedal sounds cool, it's good to hear pedals like this for a change used in modern sounding music, and has great potential for incorporating innovative sounds into songs/tunes. I use one of my Zoom pedals to create very similar sounds to add a bit of spice into my songs. Great demo Ryan watching and listening here in England UK.

      So true man, you can get a very similar with a 90 Euro Zoom Ms 70 Cdr, which is a very good price considering that this is one of those sounds that nobody uses that much, also with the Zoom you can save presets and that's a very useful thing.
      Very nice pedal anyway and great video.

    This is a great pedal, but not quite as good as the Generation Loss V2 or the newest Wardenclyffe Deluxe. Wow and Flutter on the Gen Loss is way deeper and the aux controls with tape stop, etc. are just fantastic. Wardenclyffe Deluxe lets you adjust the noise with three different settings and has an onboard lofi reverb that sounds phenomenal. But this pedal is great if you're looking to for this sound with moderation. The Warped Vinyl HiFi is a whole different beast IMO--almost impossible to sound bad with that pedal.

    Any comment on the Golden Era vs the Generation Loss v2?

    • @DemosInTheDark
      @DemosInTheDark  3 года назад +2

      sure! i've commented below on this too, or maybe it was on the the gen loss video. at any rate, totally different animals in my opinion. i use golden era as more of a warm analog finishing touch. you can do a lot or a little with it. with the gen loss, you have to be pretty committed to the effect. in my experience, there isn't a lot of "subtle" in it. going back to golden era, it doesn't get nearly as crazy as gen loss can. so i think it all comes down to what you're looking for. if you want the effect to run the show, i'd go with the gen loss. if you want to run the show, i'd go with golden era. i love both for completely different reasons.
      those are my thoughts on the two. if you are able, i'd try them out!

      So once upon a time I had the MKII and it was awesome but I never got enough lo-fi vibes out of it...from what I can remember! I guess I ended up using it as more of a really fancy vibrato pedal instead of what I really wanted it for. The tape wobble on the Golden Era takes me back to being a kid watching stuff on VHS and being lost in my own imagination and that’s a feeling you can’t beat! I hope that answers your question.

    • @DemosInTheDark
      @DemosInTheDark  3 года назад +3

      it has some similarities to the deco, but it has a different vibe altogether. to me deco still has a polished digital sound to it and is very "modern" approach to replicating tape. golden era has a very vintage analog voicing to it, warts and all. the folks at TEFI restore old vintage organs and studio equipment and that expertise shows up in their pedal designs.
