Knobs: Beautiful, charismatic curator of out-of-stock pedals
moogaudio.com lists it as 'in stock'
Seven years later, it's very much in-stock.
Sounds like you've plugged your guitar into a lake! I like it 🙂
Thank you for including a synth demo portion, however brief - that's very important to me since I don't use pedals for guitars. Another great demo - I own the Hologram Dream Sequence & Panda Particle because of your demo. Keep up the great and entertaining work.
Thank you!!
I find your play style VERY interesting. It reminds of some weird dream or an episode of adventure time. I wish I could see what you were doing!
you can hear it
@@LfunkeyA ok Mr.big ears some of us aren't that cool
I'm gonna get this and replace my mattress with it.
Maybe not physical comfort but emotional comfort is all there!
Also sounds like lots of confusing feelings and emotion (basically adolescence in aluminum)
Now we're talkin
Xander Rose Xander Rose I'm complimenting knobs because I like the way it sounds sorry if there was something wrong with it. Didn't mean to start any fights or whatever man sorry. Anyway I don't think my rig is better than anybody else's it's all a personal choice bro. Anyway I don't wanna get in an argument

Sensitive feels here
At some point I just want a pedal that cost $499 and basically plays whatever the hell it wants and ocasionally screams "Fuck You!" in Gilbert Gottfried's voice.
The Nutman, they're working on that next, just in time for winter NAMM.
Hahaha!!!
Pretty sure my Unpleasant Surprise already does that.
They're called Escorts. You provide the ukulele.
@foodie please make one haha
It's funny how Knobs videos make me feel happy each time. It's not euphoria but that slight esthetic joy that I can experience flicking through a book on Paul Rand or Saul Leiter. I guess you can call it "art". The experience of other youtube pedal demonstrations with their generic blues or rock has the opposite effect and I immediately wonder why i found that pedal so wonderful just before. Knobs good for the soul, bad for the purse.
Of all the lo-fi sort of chorus/vibe/filter pedals, I feel like this one most accurately resembles the sound of a broken tape machine. That modulation is very reminiscent of wow and flutter, and the way the filtering interacts with it is really pleasing and gives it that natural feeling. I feel like this is a similar random modulation circuit to that of the Meet Maude delay, which I own and really love. I wish I could get all the Fairfield stuff, thanks knobs for these great demos!
Imagine SW in MM's effect loop
I always imagine Salad Fingers narrating the text in these videos.
Yes! Bingo!! This is the Salad Fingers pedal.
God this is soooo accurate.
Immediately started reading all the text aloud in a Salad Fingers voice.
Yesssss!!!
clicked on this video expecting some weird lofi indie song. I am leaving this video with one of these pedals currently coming to my house
spare 300 dollars sir?
Any pedal that's always on is instantly more valuable to me.
I need this. I didn't know I needed it, I didn't know what KFM was, but now I know I need this.
These demos don't belong on RUclips they should be in a Swedish art gallery
shut up
Ah, the expected RUclips Nazi is here.
nrvana8775 me?
Meddie Diablo no, Xander
And they should be songs on Spotify and iTunes etc
this sounds like background music in adventure time :)
Absolutely need this pedal NOW!! Wow! Another home-run by Fairfield and Knobs
This is exactly my jam. Will be good buddies with the Generation Loss, and Instant Lofi Junky. Another brilliant piece, dude.
Andrew Clock probably the instant lofi junky because of the master volume knob and the footswitch doesn't pop. (My generation loss footswitch pops occasionally).
Andrew Clock to me the SW sounds pretty unique as far as the filtering and dirtiness it adds. They're all pretty much good for different reasons though.
Andrew Clock the lo fi junky is cool, but beware the compression is HEAVY. You'll get a lot of floor noise as a result. If you're looking for a more standard chorus/vibrato, I'd recommend the Walrus Audio Julia. But the lo fi junky does do the Tycho/Boards of Canada sound really well.
Currently I have a gen loss (and it replaced a lo fi junky). The gen and high/low pass knobs can get you a lot of sounds that is very unique to that pedal. The span knob can get you super deep vibrato too (much deeper than the junky, almost too much for me), and I love that it's random modulation, like the shallow water. I just ordered a shallow water but plan on keeping my gen loss at the end of my chain as a sort of "lo fi mastering" stage, to fuck up loops and such.
thistownneedsmusic yeah the ilfj is noisy. And it is so so so compressed. If anyone ever wondered what compression does, just show them the lofi junky. So damn compressed. Hahaha I wish the generation loss had a master volume. That would make it complete. I love them both really. One of my best lofi tools, however, is my trusty rusty Line 6 Echo Park in the tape mode. It is so so so lovely.
A couple months ago I was looking for a really good lofi pedal, and I was torn between the Warped Vinyl, the Julia, and the Shallow Water. I am happy to say that I went with the Shallow Water. This thing is so freaking awesome. The randomness of the modulation and the filter are what really make it sound authentic.
I still haven’t bought this pedal. I still watch this video every week. I really need to get it
the adventure time pedal
no
yes
I love this chill and unique modulation effect. Ordered and on the way....
William Mitchell lucky
Just found you guys and our tuts recently and I am just in love with them
thanks for including synths with this - will be good to see more pedal reviews that do this as well as guitars.
4:41, I died.
I've been creatively inspired by demos before. I've been entertained by other demos. I've been nonplussed at countless others. This is however perhaps the first time I've been so emotionally stirred by a pedal demo. The sounds. The sentiments. The creative concept. All the warm fuzzies.
(I will say that it certainly does help to be demo-ing a damn cool box from Fairfield)
Excellent work.
Thank youuuuu
this brightened my day immensely.
Knobs you have an amazing eye for composition.
This is the pedal I've been waiting for. Holy shit I can't wait for this to arrive; like something out of a dream.
You have the best produced pedal vids I've ever seen.
Fuzz cobwebbed dreams...strings and all....love it...cant afford it....damn you Knobs:)
This might be the coolest youtube channel concept I've come across in 2020. Holy shit, love the playing and explanations. I bought this pedal and couldn't decide whether to keep it or not, and this video showed me why I love it. Subtle, highly tweakable within a narrow range of effect, for excellent results. Always on. Always.
Also worth mentioning, the j-fet transformer in this pedal is itself a huge plus. It introduces beautiful breakup perfectly compatible with the modulation effect.
Another good dream :)
I am addicted to this
Thank you for not playing two thousand blues licks like every video made by a duo of schmucks! So refreshing!
danyjr Stop hating on That Pedal Show.....I see you throwing that shade...
Nah he means Rob Chapman
Those schmucks are OK too, but I'm glad knobs does the knobs thing. It's not a zero-sum game.
My band was actually called “Trio of Schmucks” but the other two schmucks off’d each other in a game of ‘Schmuckshambo’ so now it’s just me and I simply go by “Schmuck”.
This is exactly the kind of effect I've been looking for. Exactly.
It’s nice to finally find a reviewer who plays the same style of music that I play. Now I don’t have to guess how well a pedal will fit my style since I can just watch ur videos haha
This pedal reminds me of the Vincent Gallo record 'When'. Especially the opening track 'Laura'.
me too!
Thinking the same thing, love that album
stunning pedal
Oh, this is a pure delight!
Fall in love with this pedal... Knobs videos are absolutely gorgeous.
Whoa, I want that pedal... Or... Do I just love the artistry? That is to say, I'm finding it's a good idea to watch other demos too before buying every pedal that Knobs makes beautiful, which, of course, is all of them.
Reminds me of some tones from Flying Lotus - Until The Quiet Comes.
this is absolutely amazing. odd AND musical. brilliant.
Cool for my synths too!
This sounds WONDERFUL!
this is beautiful
I just stumbled upoun this pedal and sold! This pedal sounds so good
it works that old rotary fx so good!
Pair this with one of those loopers from your other videos (mood for example) and you get “strum once get 10 minutes of ambient goodness” -type of setup :)
Beautiful.
At some point I'm watching these going, "damn... This one sounds good too." Question for you, Knobs: what is your personal board/rig looking like these days? Given your access to so many incredible sounds, what do you perform with? I think I'm not the only one on here who would be interested to hear your music...
I'm pretty sure he is actually a fairly successful musician who would rather do this kind of stuff anonymously in his spare time. At least that's the theory I like best.
he actually recently announced that he's working on an album!
I thought about this the other night, which is kind of the same theory I ended up with as well. Although, it would be neat to know.. It would also kind of kill the mystery (for me, at least) which makes Knobs such an alluring channel. He/She (They?) know that these videos are all about the pedals and providing great sounding videos featuring what we all want, no-talk audio demos. As an added bonus, the time is put in to give us something entertaining to watch while listening. I went through every video this weekend... I'm hooked... =X
What if he really is Ronald Jones from the Flaming Lips. I mean, similar sounds came out of his mind during his time with the band. Just check the cd "Lightning Strikes the Postman" ... Ring modulator madness!!!
Borisvski god wouldn't that be insane
new upload !!
I didn't even get to the end of this video before buying one!!
Beautiful
Great demo as always!!!
I’ve wanted this pedal for over a year now! I just need to do it already!! I bet it would be so sick on a bass if used right
This is your heart on knobs ^
Instant boards of canada machine
THOSE SYNTHSSSS
Having 000 is like being knighted by the chancellor of the universe.
This whole video soothed my heart...
very cool! love your videos, and killer pedal!
HI @Knobs!!!! I'm so excited! thank you for this new video! (Matt: your humbly obsessed appreciator of art)
Can see an artist like Bibio embrace this... it's fantastic
This is art on so many levels.
Nice to see the Korg PSS-50. It's a cheap doinky little thing, but fun to mangle.
Sweet review
Lovely
Nice
everytime i look up a pedal if i see it being reviewed by this channel, i know my wallet will feel it later
4:01 Cool. Well done vid
I want this so badly, but it's already sold out
Any similar VST plugin equivalents? I currently have XLN Audio's RC-20 and Aberrent DSP's Sketch Cassette 2,both are great. But still doesn't compare to this pedal
Was this based on the Don Buchla low pass gate?
Love ambient
Mine's en route now. Excited to wade. Miss chatting w/chu!
Meddie Diablo. on my way to the Swedish art gallery!
This is making me want to watch Bagpuss.
Beautiful demo. Was the fuzz before or after the Shallow?
4:40 Beautiful
Just bought one
I'm gonna wait for the Behringer clone....
hilarious
Very cool man, unraveling the talent of the manufacturer and creator of the circuit is how we make the world a better place to live, CONGRATS!
i think he was joking
jack o'nada
+1 Me too...
Yeh, even so...
The Gentlemen Losers came to mind. A pleasing, lo-fi dream pedal.
Very interesting result. It makes me think of music like Radio Head, etc. Congratulations and thanks !
instant tim hecker
Instant Devendra Banhart :)
Do you put out any recordings of your music? i'd buy 'em.
Geniale!
This + Meed Maude + a reverb + a looper of your choice = Boards of Canada
Don't you just love turning knobs!
Cool demo, wonder how it would pair with Maude🤔 oh think of the happy couple! dark, gooey love...
That's some lofi stuff right there lol
awesome.. :o
Are you saying that you bought a 1k synth and a 300usd pedal to sound like a 30$ cheap keyboard? Pure genius
30$ keyboards don't sound like this
Am I having a stroke or they very subtly warping the video or zooming in and out? Maybe the LFO is so powerful it's messing with my eyes. Weird.
Whoa.
in love with your videos
4:34 Boards of Canada sounds
Pretty much everything coming out of it sounds like BoC... it's like BoC in a box...!
I'm supposed to be researching for my new job..
why don’t i hear the shallow water hiss anywhere in this video ? i’m trying to get rid of it on mine 😢
There's a handful of Knobs videos that I've watched, maybe, 10 times each, and I think this one will be one of those soon. I love how anti-narrative these videos are.
Also I think I recognize the Microbrute, but what other synths/MIDI controllers are you using in this video?
Korg Super Section & OP-1 are the other two
preciosidad
💜!
