You are straight up the most unique guitar gear channel on YT. You take a pedestrian pedal or effect and bring the hidden oddities and foibles to the surface and expose it for everyone to exploit. I find myself binge watching your videos. I would love to see your process to uncover hidden uses with a new pedal.
thanks for the comment. also at some point I should make a dedicated video about my process for figuring out a new pedal, but in the meantime it is something i've described in the various AMAs if you want to poke around those. glad you're enjoying the vids
With the imagery, your easy-to-understand but comprehensive explanations, the tones, your channel has quickly become one of my favorites. I also really appreciate that you're not overtly selling gear like so many other channels. Can't wait to watch more!
That last sound example was incredible, i could just live in that sound…also now i’m gonna be lookin into that side step..lol..came for eq knowledge but i get sidetracked which is the coolest part..i’m so glad i found your channel. No bs, full of info, the animations are oddly soothing…love em
"Dammit, Donnie! Why-why you gotta get so smart on us?" Thanks for sharing your knowledge. This is a great page for beginners and experts alike. I watch your videos like five times in a row. Not because I don't get it right away. But you have a great way of explaining things.
Such an artist - each video is an album unto itself! My favorite EQ discovery is with the WMD parametric, you can barely boost the lost extreme high frequency range at a low Q after scooping out any mud or nasally mids that are clouding up a guitar, and that little lift in treble headroom is very airy instead of harsh. It can be harsh if overdone but the WMD allows a very high frequency to target and it gave me a sparkle I couldn't find anywhere else
Its more common to find on plugins I suppose but it's very useful if you want clarity, it's hard to blend in sometimes. And I meant "most extreme" not lost, in my comment but wasn't able to edit it. Cheers
One cool tip is to have the speed of the random expression input quite fast and you get that sort of switching radio stations effect you hear on songs like hunting for witches
Thank you Ivan ! I've been watching all your clips and truly appreciate the time and effort you put into these and your generosity in sharing your explorations and wisdom. The clips are also tremendously entertaining ! I always end up considering things from a new angle. That's the best ! Gratefully - John
Side Step rules! So grateful to see that beloved TWA Side Step featured again. Oscar for best supporting role long overdue… An inspiring tool to make the equipment you already have mo' betterer. Dig that one, and for slightly different uses the Old Blood Noise Endeavors Expression Ramper.
I like boss pedals but the eq is not my first choice... get something with true bypass instead. What works aswell as a semi eq pedal is some bass preamps like an ampeg ... they can boost and cut ... of cause there is not so many options in frequenzes as on an eq but it can work.
anyone who wants a great parametric eq and a fun pedal build kit, i built the one byoc offers and i looove it and you can do most these things (sorry no expression tho) love ya
Idk if the reverb on the speaking parts of your video are an effect or natural but if I have open back headphones on it sounds like your giving a lecture in the room with me.
Nice vid. I nearly pulled the trigger on a Source Audio EQ2 but didn’t bc I prefer the analog sliders. I’m holding out for a good deal on an XTS or Analogman modded GE-7
Great video as always! Would you consider doing a “how to be advanced” video for the Iridium? Just picked one up and would love to hear some of the things you really dig about it and how you approach it! Cheers!
The Iridium rules my life so it's very tempting. But I'm not sure I really have surprising or "advanced" stuff to do with it. I guess one piece of advice would be to ignore your intuitions about what each amp model is supposed to be good for (Marshall for dirt, Fender for clean), and instead decide which one to use based on what sounds good with whatever guitar you're using. Sometimes I surprise myself with which amp mode ends up sounding the best for the thing I'm doing. Thanks for the comment.
@@CyberattackWorld indeed! Great fun using the cv inputs too. Always struggled to get my wah pedal to stay exactly where i wanted it & this has become the best answer.
@@CyberattackWorld I can't find any good tutorials on routing this demonfx filtration II g-string pedal I got. But you're the best at pedal videos man thanks I love your content
amazing tips as always my man! one question tho, I have a boss EQ pedal, there is only one input jack, so how could I use an expression pedal, in such case? thanks dude
I'm afraid this means the Boss EQ you have doesn't take expression pedals. Even the Enieqma only takes MIDI expression pedale. This is one reason the Long Life EQ I was talking about at the end is a big deal--it takes normal expression pedal input and there's a bunch of cool squawky tones you can get with it.
can't you see i'm trying? i don't even like it. i just want to get to your apartment now i'm staying please just for a while i can't sleep cos i'm just way too tired.

Ah, my favorite Blues Driver: the Metal Zone
a must for blues artists
Lovely version of "Is This It"

Fantastic video, again. Seriously underrated channel. Really like your collaboration with Emily Hopkins 👍🏽

You are videos are so inspirational. Thank you and keep them coming

oh yeah that's good
@@CyberattackWorldWorks even better in stereo :)
Your best video yet, and the bar's already high.
The fact that all your vids don’t get like 100k views sucks. Such useful information.
we'll get there. but if you wanna post this one up and down Reddit it always helps.
Even though, having been behind the sound console, I kind of already know/understand most of this; your video and playing still made me smile
Your video and all this animation stuff is really amazing and unique..
Watching this again when I'm high
You explained it so well even my dumb bass playing ass was able to take some info from this so thanks man. Far out
Only discovered you recently, but this has quickly become one of my favourite channels. 👍
As per usual, with every video there are several absolute bops. The one at 5:23 especially in this video. The lo-fi trick is pretty rad!

thanks man i really appreciate it
Loved the “Cyber Wing” track ❤
i got obsessed with getting good takes of those, even though it's only 5 seconds
This is the way to spin EQ!
I like what you did with Live Forever there!
I'm glad you caught that
Enjoyable and informative
Thanks for checking it out
I really love your guitar playing, for some reason I really didn't expect that AC/DC stuff, right on. Thanks for all these excellent and generous tips
thanks. this video definitely had more classic hard rock playing in it than usual. sometimes I just feel like living in that world again
The video I didn't know I needed today. Brilliant.
Really enjoying these vids. Keep it up!
Great graphics and visual language.
Side Step rules!

Beautiful sounds!
Man you come up with some cool stuff! Gave it the big 👍🏻. Wish you would do a complete cover of a song with a trippy cyberattack video
thanks dude, huge news: ruclips.net/video/EINdLqmcYH0/видео.html
I don’t know how I missed that?? Really good man, your creativity is just off the charts!!!
Side step for life
This is the best channel out there. Amazing content
Really appreciate your videos.
Picked up an Iridium because of this channel.
Oh god now I want the full version of Live Forever ❤
i gotta do that at some point
@@CyberattackWorld can't wait 🤘😎
Loved The Strokes lofi cover!
I like boss pedals but the eq is not my first choice... get something with true bypass instead.
What works aswell as a semi eq pedal is some bass preamps like an ampeg ... they can boost and cut ... of cause there is not so many options in frequenzes as on an eq but it can work.
your music changed my life, come una capra
It's been amazing to see
anyone who wants a great parametric eq and a fun pedal build kit, i built the one byoc offers and i looove it and you can do most these things (sorry no expression tho) love ya
Amazing content. Truly unique. Thank you very much for it
Your left handed twin plays pretty good guitar. 😎🤓
extremely terrible personality though
Idk if the reverb on the speaking parts of your video are an effect or natural but if I have open back headphones on it sounds like your giving a lecture in the room with me.
True gold in here. Thanks for the tips!
Why the fuck do i love your videos so much?
it's because i have fake bullshit coursing through my veins at all times, aka #tppojla

Stiff Upper Lip boiiiii
Awesome video as always, my guy.
thanks man, i love that song
came for the demo, stayed for the animation...
Love the Fairfield long life, one of my favourite pedals
it's really good
@@CyberattackWorld indeed! Great fun using the cv inputs too. Always struggled to get my wah pedal to stay exactly where i wanted it & this has become the best answer.
Close your eyes, voice sounds like Will Smith
I’d say like a young but more subtle Christopher Walken.
@@davidwickiser1402 sometimes a lil mitch hedburg too
So purchase the GFI Enieqma, got it.
sorry the real message is you can purchase anything you want, as long as you use my affiliate links!! im so glad i was able to clarify this for you
Cam you do a video on noise gates/suppressors?
that's a cool suggestion, i gotta think about how to get 5 different pieces of advice though
@@CyberattackWorld I can't find any good tutorials on routing this demonfx filtration II g-string pedal I got. But you're the best at pedal videos man thanks I love your content
I love trying to guess the covers. Is this it was great
Thanks, I always have fun with that part. You know about the Google doc right?
yes, big fan of the google doc!

good
You really snuck live forever in there
i'd been wanting to cover that song for a while
Excellent as ever. Oasis and the Strokes were unexpected, but really nothing should be from this channel. Apart from Oasis
glad you caught those
Lol nice is this it showcase
Is this it?
cant u see im tired
Almost first! Let’s gooooo
you have to want it bad enough!!!!!
We’ll get him next time boys
Everytime the strat is playing theres some ringing hi frequencies like “feedback” its very annoying
can't you see i'm trying?
i don't even like it.
i just want to get to your apartment
now i'm staying please just for a while
i can't sleep cos i'm just way too tired.
man i butchered that lollll
it needed to be done
i wonder what his voice sounds like when he's not putting on that frat bro affectation. like when he has a cold and he goes to his moms house to rest
Angus Young doesn t use pedals man...Iridium an amp? My god man
