This video is fantastic! I received my Mood mkII a couple days ago and am loving it so far. This video shows so many great and completely musical ways to try it out! Thanks!! And of course “Tomorrow never knows” is perfect along with Blackbird to show the pedal off to us old guys!

Mike I would personally love a video where you show your process for transcribing a tune like this. You always do it in such a cool way.

@@kckrye Yes, indeed. I was watching his video of "In my room". He seems to be true to the song, but sprinkles his style here and there without being overpowering. Seems to be his approach to the covers I watched so far. Thanks again. Have a wonderful day.

Beautiful Blackbird rendition, Mike. You're beastly as always.

To be honest, this is the first pedal i don't understand really 😮 and my English is coming to it's limits understanding the descriptions (wich ain't your fault). So it's a a freezer pedal were you can manipulate the recorded loops? Adding Reverb and Delay. A bit like the EHX Superego? Are those drumloops also generated by the pedal? Btw: This pedal and your unic playing style sound outstanding and interesting!

@Farold_Haltermeyer

Жыл бұрын

Left side you can have Delay, Reverb or time stretch. Right side you have microloopers x 3: an envelope triggered one that freezes when you play, a tape machine style loop, and a time stretch loop. The looper side is always recording you, ready for you to press the switch. You can run either side alone or together and have them effect each other. Then the central clock speed affects both sides in fidelity and length of effect. That’s the basics...then there are LOADS of hidden functions and automations.

It’s pretty difficult to define, but I’ll have a go: It’s an always listening 2 channel stereo micro looper with variable clock tied to length and pitch of playback, with three modes of loop style, and 3 effects modes to run them through, together with 3 different routing options, and 12 different automating dipswitches, creating an infinite possibility wonderland of beautiful stereo chaos and happy accidents.

@@TheElrondo took me a long time to get into the original, is really best when used texturally and with expression control (you can control any parameter/s this way) and with other pedals. Into fuzz/dirt it is superb, but very few demoes of this sadly. I'm not a fan of the "happy accident" application, prefer it as a live tool...like spices as a cooking ingredient, I need to be able to recreate the recipe :) so presets are a blessing

I just moved from Stretch mode to Envelope mode. My only question is - is it possible to ever play the same thing with such a pedal, like, to write something that depends upon it and then reproduce it a week later after you've lost your mind in 50,000 other combinations of whacky? I think that's the big internal fear everyone has with these and why only severely autistic shoegaze artists buy them (more than once). But, of course, it's a milestone in pedal design, a real game changer, there should probably be a Nobel prize given to every pedal manufacturer that mixes delay with looping with some other trick nifty trick gadget spin on these eternally brain fking devices that will never ever in the future of eternity be used in a viral anything other than to replace an ambient basically meaningless keyboard part because numbnutts guitar boy or girl can't fathom the use of a synth engine. Seriously, we are running out of new ground fast. Imagine a world where 1,000 doughnut artists produce a new kind of doughnut every month for 1,000 doughnut manufacturers which were then distributed by 10,000 doughnut retailers and purchased by a rotating 100,000,000 doughnut eaters. At the end of maybe 5 years, each grocery store would need 20 isles just to offer the top 1% of doughnuts at any given time and there would need to be an extra 200 nation-wide specialty doughnut franchises established in thousands of cities. We would all get so fking sick of doughnuts within about 6 months after that that there would likely be a law put in place to regulate their production and memes would abound about how only cops and Karens still like doughnuts.
