This pedal really helps your playing sound consistent. Does this eerily well. LOVE playing this thing with a pick!

As usual great demo and playing, mate! Someday hope to see your signature pedal - Darkglass NATHAN aka Nifty Avant-garde Terrific High-end Amplification Nerd, or something like that ;)))

My young boy asks, "What are you listening to?" I didn't reply, kept quiet. Then he says, "That's Navarro guy, I heard that playing". Man your signature play is now known in my household.

The biggest mindblow to me is Nathan's slight of hand with the pick on the opening riff. If that thing isn't super glued to his hand I can't wrap my brain around it lol

Thank you for making this demo using basses other than Dingwalls

THAT WAS COOL NATHAN !!!

Insane ! Remind me to go back to work 🌞👌

Cool to see the waveform change with different compressors applied!

Excellent break down of compression functions!! No one ever does this. Dark glass for the win.

Ya this is the one ill be grabbing up soon

Great review, stepping through the different features and sounds efficiently but not glossing too quickly over any of them.

So soothing for such a hard as fk tone. good m8 is great to hear this pedal played with Nathan as well as Nolly as it gives a great bookmark.

I like his videos because In his review video,starting riffs are killing

Technique-wise, Nathan seems to have it all.

That thing sounds excellent.

I just got their Alpha-Omega 900 amp and it CRUSHES.

This sounded so good! Both 6:55 and 7:58 were my Favorite! But the BASS on that White Bass cause of the dialed in EQ! Wow!

“Waveform lookin plump” I subscribed after that lmao

nice playing.

Nate is one highly skillful mate.

Nate's thumb strum drives me wild. Such a useful technique.

That Spector sounds so great.

Superb sir love you 😘

The low end is SICK Just take my money!

que voz tenes es bien grave, buenisimo el video

as soon as i saw Darkglass released this pedal i told myself, "gee, cant wait to see Nathan's vid on this" ... called it lol

Spector and Dingwall are DG's best friends. The Haz, Tonepump, and Tonecapsule all seem to really come to life with the DG OD's.

This pedal is all you need for metal

Fan of the stems!

That pedal is in good hands

Stellar playing Nathan! My question is how are you palming and re-equipping your pick in those transitions?! Your transition is seamless between finger-style, and picking...

Hé man great demo! Question here How does this perform through an actual amplifier and cabinet ? Thats the way i use all my darkglass pedals. The ADAM seems to be a pedal to go directly into the PA or PC

Please darkglass!! Please turn this into an amp!!!

I desperately need to see a comparison between this and the B7K and Alpha Omega :D... I really like the gritty distortion of the first riff here, but I feel the pedal starts to sound very digital in all high-gain examples that followed the second riff. Not that I know if it is some form of digital hybrid or all analog, I just lack any better words to describe it.

Everytime i hear and watch you play, i get the feeling you'd be able to crush granite with your bare hands.

I'm surprised you didn't mention the tuner is has or use it. I think that's a great feature

that 2nd preset demo tho

С таким подходом ,все электрогитары имеют 👍

Amazing,THAT Dingwall bass!!!!! Use it to play Rip and Tears from Doom Eternal,the videogame!!!!

Dingwall B string was like a jumprope

I bought this pedal a few days ago and I have to say it really does not offer the range of tones you'd think. Distortion 1-3 sound pretty much the same. There really isn't a lot of 'aggression' at all. The EQ also doesn't do as much as I'd hoped. Everyone seems to be using lots of different basses in the reviews and I think that's really where the tonal differences are.

Jeez Nathan, you could read the ingredients on a DR pepper bottle and it would sound like smooth butter.

500 squids is a lot of cash...

Nathan oi !!! De todos os darkglass que vc já usou ,qual vc gostou mais . In all darkglass pedals you like more ? Why?

Does anyone know if the compressor in the ADAM negates the need for something like the Hyper Luminal? Or would they both offer different advantages?

@maxignatyev9873

2 жыл бұрын

I'm not a very big expert, but logically you're speaking about 2 different pedals. ADAM compression made by Nolly with his vision and algorithm and based on the idea to have distorted sound after, while Hyper Luminal is a standalone compressor. So (IMHO) they have different functions, but who can prohibit to try to use them both in a line?:)

You're a badass

4:38 Something about this clip is hilarious to me. Slowly twisting knobs is the complete opposite of what the music makes me want to do. Not that I’m against knob-tweaking or pedals in general... the juxtaposition present in the clip just made me nose exhale.

Great sounding pedal.I use the Hormonic Booster and Vintage Microtubes love em together.Adam is too rich for my budget.

Nathan, just curious what Kind of bass that was your playing at the very end of the video the white one that looks like a Fender jazz bass. I am sure that's where the similarities end. Thanks PS, Like I said I am a drummer and And not familiar with 3 out of the 4 bass guitars. I believe that the 2nd one is a spector bass(it might have the best sound out of the 4) But I am not familiar with the 3rd and the 4th Bass guitar. The 3rd one kind of resembles a Steinberger, I know it's not but let me know what kind of base that is in the 4th one that looks like a Fender jazz bass,I'm sure after the looks the similarities end there! Thanks Nathan, great video. Have a merry Christmas and happy new year 🎉

It wasn’t on the clean side, but the “distorted” side had it’s distortion turned off (notice the light on the middle foot switch is off). Compression and cabsim were still enabled on the “distorted” side.

@@Nebvin ohhh, the distortion actually turns off? Interesting that Nolly didn’t demo that! In fact, Nolly actually instructed you have to rotate blend fully counter clockwise? Thank you for pointing this out though, I was thinking of workarounds for an always off IR for cleans. Still, shame to have no IR on the multiband clean.

Nathan’s voice really does reflect the way he plays.. or is it the other way around?

So I am fairly new to this... But these things are only for recording right? I don't think anyone will turn und switch any of these knobs while playing live. For that I would only have 3 presets here?

Is this a pre amp as well?

Personally I don't like the pedal, but come on - that's how you do a review! Keep it up, bro

I realize this isn’t really the point of this pedal, but how is it in lower gain settings? It looks like a really versatile high gain pedal, but can it pull comparable microtubes vintage category sounds?
