Not the first to discover that what is basically the OCD circuit works well for cleaner sounds, turned down, into smaller wattage combos.At the end of the chain, it can be a solid pre amp, with the FT circuit offering more headroom up to 18v.

Josh I have a love/hate relationship with you, I love that you so selflessly promote other companies. I hate you because you make me spend all my money on pedals. I love what you do, please keep doing it, we need more people like you in the world.
The amount of research and attention to detail directed to showcase another company is just not normal. Amazing work as always, very entertaining and inspiring at the same time.

It's Josh's way of putting other pedal companies out of business. Recommend their stuff and watch them be crushed under the demand. One less competitor.

Old Blood is not just super unique creative sounds, but also incredibly well thought out and functional. You know how you have a pedal that's really cool but you wish it had one little tweak? OBNE thought of that already and included it. Like haunt has a clean blend, there are soooo many awesome fuzzes that don't quite work on bass. Also, sunlight is even better than you said here, it's got this great tail- killing feature that's triggered by a gate, it's like ducking but better and should really be standard on every reverb in the world but as far as i know it's unique. Just really great design thinking.
Old Blood Noise Endeavors is my favorite pedal company. The name and art has always envoked the eldrich, the other, and the weird. The actual pedals take that vibe and let you make it into music. My personal favorite is the Visitor.

Starflyer's Talking vs Singing Voice might be the most slept on album of all time, I'm positively shocked and grateful to see anyone giving it some of the love it deserves. OBNE are also supercool, so are the jams and banter, but we all expected that.

Starflyer are a slept on band in general. Some shoegaze fans know silver and gold, and Americana was featured on a somewhat popular 4chan shoegaze chart, but that's about it. They have an amazing discography throughout, including last year's Vanity, which is their best release since TVVSV

Agree! Also for anyone checking out Starflyer, listen to Leave Here A Stranger. Genius album.
Beautiful homage to OBNE. Stunning jams, as this band gels into a force. Josh: GREAT playing. Totally addicted to this thing. Please don't collapse into a heap of egos. This is WONDERFUL.
OBNE has the MAW and not many companies have VOCAL EFFECTS. I use the JHS color box v2 and other pedals for vocal duties. I would love a show on vocal pedals.

OBNE is one of my favorite pedal builders! I’m so glad you spent some time talking about them Josh so more people can discover their unique and wildly creative pedals both visually and sonically!
Was cool to see Starflyer 59 during record time. I think my favorite release by them is their Fell in Love at 22 ep. Great stuff!
The cinematic scenario was a work of art, your adoring public demands MORE !
It’s about time!! OBNE makes incredible stuff. The Reflektor is the best chorus pedal I’ve ever played

Yeah but it was at least 2 yrs. ago when Josh covered various reverbs & first introduced me to OBNE Procession reverb pedal that I bought. So not the first time covering OBNE.
Starflyer 59 Talking Voice v. Singing Voice is an album that, no matter what's going on in my life, makes me feel like all is right with the world. Absolutely stellar album, Jason Martin is a songwriting genius, not to mention an all-around good guy.
Love all the love for the artists!
The sunlight reverb is phenomenal and if I weren’t so in love with my EQD ghost reverb I would probably replace it. I have almost purchased an OBN petal about a dozen times and eventually I will throw down that cash. For the record, they make a parallel mixer that is priced well below what it is worth in my honest opinion.
STARFLYER 59 IS LOVE! So happy to hear them featured. I have a handful of their vinyls but unfortunately not The Fashion Focus. Favorites for me for sure are Gold, Silver, and Americana. Sad Reverb Bois represent. Great episode as always Josh and crew! Joshua's cameos were fantastic. Jams were on-point as usual too. Addison's bass tones are just *chef's kiss* and I so appreciate Nick's drum beat stylings. Gotta look more into OBNE...
Every time I'm watching one of your videos, I have it in one screen and have Reverb open in the other looking for deals on the pedals you're talking about. Really a great video. Love OBNE. Thanks!
With Nick and Joshua's cinematic scenario, you're raising the show to another level. I loved it. Keep on bringing us laughs and love ! Thank you for that and making us discovering great pieces of gear (sorry for English, I did my best as a French guy).
the OBNE expression ramper is a must have utility pedal, I'm surprised you didn't feature it.
Starflyer 59 is my all time favorite band. Thank you for representing them well 🖤
Thanks for giving the artists credit. Cheers. ✌

OBNE + JHS + Shoot Film Co Minolta tee. What an episode
Man, these pedals are awesome! The soundscapes are endless. The first couple combos were truly special, loved what you played with those tones! Cheers gents!
So good! Thanks for your input and sharing of knowledge and demonstrating these pedals
So cool that you shouted out the artists. Awesome.
The cat's out of the bag! I know a lot of ambient musicians feel OBNE was their secret weapon, since they're not nearly as well known as EQD
I stopped by for pedals but stayed for the music. Absolutely mesmerizing!
About time you gave these guys the attention they deserve!
You guys are a blessing.
Episodes like this are my meditation.
Awesome episode! Love seeing you showcase other loved brands!
These pedals just produce next level sounds that I didn’t know I wanted or needed until I heard them. And the jams in this episode were next level as well…very inspired stuff (with the unfortunate exception of the Pluto blues incident). Loved this episode!
The pedals and the jams sounded incredible this video! Please do a mix breakdown of how you guys make these videos sound so good!
Man, you guys have a blast. Great jamming in this episode! Need me some OBNE 😎
I appreciate the shoutout for the graphic designers and illustrators. Those artists get little attention for hours of work. Well done.
The "Affinity for the Night" jam sounds exactly like Narrow Head's Satisfaction album and I'm here for it.
I have 7 OBNE pedals. I love ALL of them. Dan Explains it all is why I bought them.
Thanks guys... now I need to buy some OBNE pedals. My pedal wish list is getting endless watching this channel!!! LOVE IT.
Love this company. I have a V1 Black Fountain, and it does the coolest doubler ever when you run the delay and mod near the bottom of their range. The Reflector is really cool too.
I love OBNE pedals -- I have Minim, Sunlight, Fault and Excess, as well as some of their utility pedals. The expression ramper is a clever idea and a lot of fun -- it enhances all (well, many) of your existing pedals.
OBNE's performance videos that they release on KZread anytime they put a new pedal out single-handedly got me back into pedals a few years ago. And from there I found you guys! Lol.
This is awesome. Great pedals, great that you're pushing another company's pedals--and great songs!
I've said this many times, but your guys jams just keep getting better. The rhythm section really grooves.
Yes, in Oklahoma we have oil, earthquakes, tornados, blizzards, floods, droughts, tiger kings, bison, and sometimes they all happen at the same time. We once had an earthquake during a snow storm with tornados. A snowquakenado if you will. It's like living in a SyFy movie.
This was a thoroughly cool episode guys, I mean in a More Than Standard Issue Cool sense, these pedals all sound so awesome. Really enjoyed the Flat Light, Dweller and Minim sound crazily awesome to me in particular, but hey, they're all really great. Thanks JHS crew for charting another totally inspirational trip into previously unknown soundscapes!

Loved the jam around 30min. with Minim pedal. Just subscribed. :)
Idk why, but the moment Josh raised the Klon and said "this is $8k. That's like 8 cups of coffee" with his deadpan facial expression had me weezing.
I preordered a Dark Light. My first pedal from them! Can not wait!!
I've got a Sunlight, a Minim, and my favorite, Flat Light flanger. OBNE is awesome!
Thank you so much for this episode... Dark Star and Excess on my board makes me smile sadistically. Love me some OBNE.
Wow what a great episode, loved the story intro, loved the pedals, loved the jams.
I think I’ve found my favorite reverb ever, in the Sunlight. Wow, that was an incredible sounding jam.
Great episode! They are super nice guys as well. Met them at Nashville NAMM pre-pandemic.
Really cool story - this episode connected Old Blood Noise with Brandy Patterson for the artwork on the latest OBNE release of the BL44 Reverse!
I've been eye-balling the Old Blood Noise pedals for a while, now. I really like the aesthetic, and the noises they bring out are wonderful. I guess they've moved up on my "want" list thanks to Josh ...
Starflyer/Bon Voyage/Joy Electric have been longtime favorites... I also love OBNE: my favorite is their Rever pedal that was the precursor to the Minim.
Concept album style pedal demo episode - this is the stuff!
The sunlight has become my favorite pedal I bought last year. Also the visitor is a modulation pedal that I also love it’s like chorus phaser tremolo and can be stacked different ways and orders it’s great for those weird sea sick chorus tones. Love obne
i've been following the channel for a while and regularly tune in, but this was this was first time i felt a need to comment because i love OBNE pedals so much. great episode! talk about ben and dwarfcraft devices sometime :)
I love OBNE. Unique, inspiring & all around great sounding pedals. I wish I could afford them all. I’ve had my eye on the Dweller & Rever for quite some time.
Soulful episode. Thank you!
Thanks for the video and great playing! Kind of want to make an album only using OBNE pedals.
Very cool episode. I find it interesting to hear the descriptions from Josh about what the pedal is, and then he plays it and it sounds nothing like I expected from the description. 🙂
As ever, I am laughing at your remarks, blown away by your multitude of cool jams and appreciative of your informative videos. Thank you.
Love OBNE. The alpha haunt is so good and the minim is my most fun pedal by a wide margin. You guys crushed it on the jams!
Once again, so great.
Old blood for the win, love their pedals!
These are the type of pedals I really like, as they inspire creativity and exploration. Unsurprisingly, I like JPTR FX pedals for the same reason. Those Old Blood Noise pedals are awesome! 😎 Thanks
I have been debating grabbing the black fountain for the last year but never go through.. that jam sold me.. such a awesome lo-fi sound
great one guys... loved the record time too

Amazing video. Maybe the best pedal YT video I’ve seen. Just discovered OBNE today and they’re great. But it’s amazing you’re promoting and highlighting another pedal company. Doing God’s work :) keep it up!
I have several of their Signal Blenders -- very useful for tying synth racks together!
Love OBNE. Josh's comments re the Fault just blew up my pedalboard (my OBNE Dark Star was the only survivor). Need to get the Fault now.
JHS is what got me into OBNE. Your video on weird reverbs included OBNE's Procession, which is like a good version of the movie Dune that doesn't exist in pedal form. I couldn't get the tremolo-reverb out of my head, so I bought it, and it's still one of my favorite pedals. Very cool to hear their origin story and more of their incredible (and sometimes bizarre) pedals.

Sometimes I hear a Hum influence in certain songs like “An affinity for the night” (15:10 ). I would LOVE to hear a record time on one of Hum’s albums. They really deserve some recognition, especially after the excellent comeback 22 years post ‘Downward is Heavenward’ with 2020’s ‘Inlet’. Which btw, I wouldn’t have known about had it not been for this channel and a reply to a comment I made on another Hum sounding song a few months ago.
