    the perfect reverb pedal for shoegaze & dream pop: dreamgazer pedal ruclips.net/video/mjE3woaGyl8/видео.html
    dreamgazer has three blissfully ethereal reverbs: reverse reverb, blossoming reverse reverb & shallower lofi ambience reverb. each reverb is adjustable & can be blended with 'soft nostalgia,' our multi-voiced modulation.

      There is a video interview with Graham that produce like a pro did breaking down every song on modern life is rubbish and he said that oily water was actually just a std boss tr2 but they did some really cool panning with the sound post production. It's really interesting.

      So, I’ve just checked that as Graham def had a PN-2 on his live board, and I’d always thought Oily Water was a PN-2 too, and in the Produce like a pro he doesn’t actually say which pedal it is - just that it’s a boss trem, and considering the PN-2 was a feature on his board all through the 90s and the TR-2 wasn’t released until 1997 (4 years after MLIR came out) I think the PN-2 was the one…

  • @BGTsoundandvision
    @BGTsoundandvision 5 месяцев назад +1

    I found a used PN-2 at shop in the middle of nowhere circa 1992. I have been using it ever since. I often run two amps and it is handy as a diagnostic tool. Allowing the signal to switch between 2 channels has been very useful to me.
    If anyone is having trouble with noise put another Boss pedal in front of it. The preceding pedal's buffer helps takes care of it.

    You can do (some of) this on the cheap with two tremolo pedals strapped to the output of a stereo chorus or delay etc.
    You lose out on any sync but gain in 'natural' width potential for a basic 'spread' that works well at low-intensities to avoid any nulls, or even more subtle to avoid any obvious modulation at all.

    I totally though this vid was going to be about the DD-3 because who didn't have one back in the 90's. Happy to see that it was an old fave, PN-2. I learned about the PN-2 from Catherine Wheele. The quiet section in Black Metalic was done with a PN-2 live at least during the Ferment tour. I later acquired one about 98' from a bass player who had no need for it. I used it for many years on many recordings. In 2018 I finally sold it and replceed it with the Boss SL-20 so I could still get the panning and square wave trem action plus a whole lot more. Keep up the great vidz and gaze on!

    • @pedalpartners
      @pedalpartners  5 месяцев назад +1

      argh my ocd is getting at me for not mentioning catharine wheel haha! the dd-3 is great & it's really interesting seeing the (sometimes major) differences between boss's delay pedals. i haven't tried the sl-20 but have wanted one for a while, i've got the sl-2, but i do love the form factor of those old twin pedals!

    I've been watching these vids for a while. Shoegaze isn't my thing, but I get it, totally. I make dark ambient and vocal collage soundscapes. I do have a lot of pedals, though, no guitar. This is a new one on me and sounds wrong in a good way. It reminds me of a Gristliser. Another early, highly tweakable Trem style pedal. It's mostly a diy unit, made famous by Throbbing Gristle. It's difficult to actually buy one.

    • @pedalpartners
      @pedalpartners  5 месяцев назад +1

      i'm a fan of all things ambient, always find the best bet is to max out the reverb ;) i always love finding pedals i don't know about & sharing them, a lot more to come this year!

    • @stuartchapman5171
      @stuartchapman5171 5 месяцев назад

      @pedalpartners you can skimp on a lot of things but cheap and nasty reverbs are just that. Having said that, a glitchry vocal loop, through a cheap reverb, into an analogue style delay is a nice effect.

    do ya'll know of any shoegaze bands that used the Boss Super Phazer PH-2? iv'e been goofing off with mine and feel that it had to have been used on some stuff i've heard before.

    • @pedalpartners
      @pedalpartners  5 месяцев назад +2

      the ph-2 looks cool, i know robert smith from the cure used it but as tends to be the case that's just cause that's what was around at the time. a certain noel gallagher used the ph-2, as has john squire from the stone roses. from my research i haven't seen it pop up on many shoegaze boards though! phaser & modulation in general is widely used in shoegaze, perhaps my favourite being the modulation in slowdive's 'alison'. phaser wise tame impala & radiohead are two of my favourite examples of the effect, both using the ehx small stone :)

    Of all the zillion pedals I have tremolo is the least represented in my collection mainly cause my amps usually have better tremolo than most pedals but I do have a eqd humming bird and jhs harmonic tremolo id like to get something that does it all in one pedal but most crazy tremolos focus more on multiple waveforms and slicer effects than just providing a good range of tremolo types

    • @pedalpartners
      @pedalpartners  5 месяцев назад

      tremolo is one of my favourite effects, not only to play but to listen to! i love all forms, the more extreme stuff is really cool, percussive & extreme square wave stuff but even subtle stuff too. i think it's an effect that is useful for many genres, i think it's a type of modulation that is less about taste (i.e. some people don't like chorus or flanger etc.) & more about utility, very useful for a variety of scenarios & more ageless than other mods :)

    • @wesmitchem825
      @wesmitchem825 5 месяцев назад

      @@pedalpartners it's definitely great to combine with other effects to add dimension to say a phaser or even vibrato and I love how it can become ring modulation at its most extreme speeds I've always wanted to hear what lies beyond the top speeds and depths that are typical for most effects it's essentially the building blocks for synthesizers and that rabbit hole I backed away from a few years ago there's plenty of analog effects still available to be utilized before I start messing with the Roland synth system route that's very expensive and as far as Individual guitar synth pedals go I pretty much got rid of mostly everything except my source audio c4 synth pedal you can do everything you would ever really want with that pedal alone and I'm far from understanding all the parameters that are available.i wish I had enough time to just sit down with it and tweak every different bank of filters and stuff on it.kinda the same reason why I haven't gotten a empress zoia yet there's just not enough time in a day to learn how to program it fully

      It's funny, I built a BYOC clone of a tweed tremolo circuit and it's just ok, kinda weak intensity-wise and with no options.
      The tremolo in the EHX oceans11 is quite good - it does the 'rumble' to 'how soon is now' (mono) very well, and ranges quite huge-ly. Any speed from "crawling" to subsonic-AM LFO (afaik it seems to be about .2 to 20 Hz) with a square and saw, also.
