Strymon Cloudburst: How to Be Advanced

Музыка

This reverb is a heavily updated standalone version of Strymon's Cloud algorithm, found in the BigSky pedal, and in this video I show you what I think are the 5 coolest things you can do with it. Settings and affiliate links are below. Stop-motion animation and drone footage by John Marty. Additional drone footage by Best Frenemies.

  • @CyberattackWorld

    @CyberattackWorld

    Жыл бұрын

    The NightSky can be tweaked and pushed in way more directions than this pedal, like the NightSky is more of a tool kit you can mess with however you see fit. The Cloudburst has fewer places it can go, but the basic starting sounds you get from it are extremely good, and I think the range of the Decay knob basically covers every “realistic” reverb you would need as long as you don’t need an exact vintage sound like a spring or something. And the Cloudburst can still get weird too. It’s just not as broad as the NightSky.

    I honestly believe that people will still be watching these Cyberattack videos long after the pedals themselves are forgotten. "Grandpa, is that really what CGI looked like in the 21st century?" a child will ask one day in a post-apocalyptic society. "Yes, of course," the grandpa will answer, because everything else from our era will have been forgotten or discarded.

    "What's a guitar pedal?" the child will ask. ""It's like an image filter or micro-acid dose you apply to your music, instead of an image or tour head. People would attach these pedals to their energy generation bikes, so that it would change the sound by affecting the electrical current that ran through the guitar, which is an obscure kind of touchsynth we've never succeeded in replicating"
