Eeppiicc. 4ever.

"sounds like a memory" is like a theme of this whole show 💯

Another tip (directed at myself more than anyone): turn it off. I’ve been realizing lately that I’ve been leaning too much on reverb to prettify otherwise boring sounds. By turning it off, I’m forced to focus on the core sound itself-and then, once it’s ready, I can bring reverb back in and push it in other directions or give it some oomph, if I want. But I realize this is the opposite of what tips 2-5 are about, which is using reverb *as* your core sound. Anyway, great video, as always!

I was just about to comment something similar to this. I’ll add that we tend to saturate our guitar signal with way too much reverb and it’s not doing us any favors when trying to make that guitar recording sit right in the mix with drums, bass, and keys.

Came here to say just this.

The prysmatic wall pedal is insanely beautiful

Shout out to the Sears parking lot, mad memories there.

The Donkey Kong cameo was hella nostalgic. Amazing!

I love this series and this might be my favorite one yet.

"Less distortion than you think you need" is just good advice in general. Heavy distortion helps me write heavy stuff, but I always dial it way down when recording or performing.

Always sharing great ideas thank you

Another amazing one in this series of effect types - I can’t wait to try some of these ideas out!

Sir Duke was such a good choice for highlighting the nostalgic qualities of spring reverb. Haunting!

Greatest pedal reviewer. I wish a huge channel would call you up for a collab

Also love the NightSky - gets me creative and excited to play like nothing else. Glad to know you're another Nightsky enjoyer!

My reverb protip: Change the name of reverb to "vibe" because reverb instantly sets the vibe of whatever you're doing. We'll find a different name for vibe pedals, because reverb is the true vibe-setter and arguably the most important effect in a sound/mix.

You can do no wrong! Another stunner! 🔥🔥

Love what you making. Such good tips. Good riffs with good texture. Absolutely what I'm into right now. Keep up the good work.

I have a particular pro-tip like the last you say, but i do more: run some effect like a modulation/pitch shifter/octave/bitcrush/ring modulator in a reverb that can cut you dry signal, you literally can create a ambient reverb with you own characteristcs, i put some flanger or pit shifter before the reverb and kill the dry, sounds cool, even more whem you have reverse reverb

Thanks, man! Great vid, as usual. Really like the flavors in these animations 🙂

Great Fox and Koopa Troopa Beach. Nice! Love the Nightsky pedal is immense.

Awesome tips!

That closing shot of Scorpion though… 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Love the vids and the channel. Really great advice, and the visuals are unique and cool among guitar channels. You replied to me once on TGP regarding the Boss SL-2 and at first I thought it was some dude who was just a mega fan of your channel!

One thing I also learnt is if you have it, try less distortion, more verb WITH predelay. It’s like a slap back with room and just sound fab in the mix.

I am doing solo ambient looping guitar gigs weekly, this is relevant to my interests.

Love the message (I think) sample at the end

@CyberattackWorld me too : ) Solid video as always. I'm more of a synth guy but your videos have many just good tips all around

I remember that pedal show - dan in particular, explaining a cool trick he found and I forget the reverb, but he was using one that has a tone/eq feature as well as a pre-delay so that the dry thru / attack was more pronounced, not lost.. but the thing was it had a decent pre delay and almost no decay, with a bright tone setting, and the result was I think after a Fuzz, that you got this top end slap back esque sheen on the notes but the strong low end and dry thru kept it clear. He basically got it to be a slap back with way less percussive sound and more of a spring like reaction.. I forget how it worked but it was something I was inspired by. Around that time I was experimenting with delays and reverbs before my envelope filter and the way a reverb can keep a filter open, is really really fun. Kinda makes it more of a wah pedal since it's less snappy and closing fast... fun shtuff.

Hey man! thanks for the tips!! Love your content. keep it coming😎😎😎👍

The sounds on protip 3 that you said are part of a song for the new album…really dig it…has a boards of canada vibe that i just love, really cool

Amazing video as always! Another cool trick is placing the reverb before the overdrive or fuzz for some washed out wall of sound that has a lot of texture and dilution

Such a genius again, and what you play at 3:56 is like the perfect blend of the Beach Boys and Deftones.

I'm commenting twice because I was distracted last time I watched the video. Shimmer reverb sounds good in parallel fully wet. The Boss SY-1 has perfect 5th settings that I put through one loop of an Electro Harmonix Tri Parallel mixer along with the SL-2 and I put a shimmer reverb with the mix set to 100% wet through another. Sometimes I'll do a fuzz at a low volume through the 3rd loop. I've experimented with parallel processing and creative reverb use for a while but about 1/3 of that signal chain was inspired from watching your videos. Huge thanks.

Thanks man

The vibes are immaculate, great video as always! Here's a fun tidbit a I had an absolute blast using - take any reveb that'll do infinite hold (in my case the Red Panda Context V2) and run it into any pedal you can control via expression (filter, volume etc) to make huge, expressive pads - the real revelation came when I used an arrpegiator (in this case the meris ottobit jr, binding the expression to the sequnce speed and amount - basically the more you push, the faster the sequence and the more time it plays in a row) to make this diatonic pitch shifted lo fi - in this case bit crushed and arrpegiated - pad choir effect that is pretty mental. Still working on refining that noise...

Fantastic video, shout out to the animation guy too - really sets the video apart. Nice one

I recently "made" a Flerb that i liked A LOT!....much better than the EHX Holy Grail setting. It was just am EHX Holy Stain with mix maxed out and then a Donner Jet Convolution Flanger following the HS; both effects were in one of the BOSS LS-2 loops and the other loop was just dry and running loops in parallel. Really good stuff!!!!

Lol, I'm not into noise and tip #5 blew me away. 😎🤓

I put a reverb pedal at the front of the pedal board chain so theres always a little bit of texture under everything. Something cool about compressed and distorted reverb

The RV-6 encompasses all of my feelings about Boss pedals in one unit. "This pedal has a mix knob that goes fully wet, but...RV-6." "This one has lots of controls, a desktop editor, and isn't overly utilitarian like a Boss pedal, but then again...'" RV-6 usually wins out.

Boss is hard to beat

Strymon should update the Nightsky firmware so to adjust the Pre-Delay to 0%

Nothing says nostalgia like the Sears parking lot. Well, maybe the Army & Navy store. Favorite reverb for me is the Spatium algorithm on the GFI Specular Tempus.
