~ Effects pedals are my instruments to create ambient soundscapes, drones & otherworldly noise with electric guitar, synthesizers and analog sequencers. ~
After years of experimenting I founded The Pedalboard Orchestra for performances of my sound creations in 2022.
This orchestra consists of highly selected soloists, mostly in a permanent cast, occasionally with slight variations depending on the circumstances. Individual groups of the orchestra are coordinated by the highly appreciated Pladask Elektrisk Matrix Mixer.
In addition to the performances of The Pedalboard Orchestra, there are also occasional demo videos of effects pedals and other gear on this channel.
Enjoy the noise!

~ Pluto's Moons Pt. 3 - Nix / feat. Dark Star Stereo ~
This is part three of my tracks with the Modern Sounds Pluto semimodular synthesizer dedicated to every single sound modifier named after Pluto's five moons Charon, Styx, Nix, Kerberos and Hydra.
This track is featuring Nix. Nix is one of the smaller of Pluto’s moons and its dimensions are about 49.8 × 33.2 × 31.1 km.
Nix was discovered in May 2005 by Hal Weaver and a large team of astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope.
Nix is named after the goddess of darkness and night, and she is the mother of Charon, the ferryman of Hades in Greek mythology.
Initially being named Nyx, the writing was later on changed to Nix, because the name Nyx was already used for a an asteroid.
In this track I used the new Dark Star Stereo reverb from Old Blood Noise Endeavors for the first time.
Further effects pedals involved are the PastFx PX-101 Low Pass Filter, the Chase Bliss Reverse Mode C and the Eventide Space Reverb (Darkmatter/Blackhole algorithm).
Pluto's Nix is modifying voice 2/sequence 2. Voice 1 is played with Pluto's "keyboard".
The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Dark Star is my favourite effects pedal since years for more dark and mysterious pad reverb sounds.
The new v3 version in stereo is a fantastic upgrade to this classic pedal.
The amazing designs on both pedals of Dark Star v2 and v3 are from Jon Carling.
Single track stereo recording, no overdubbing.
All audio and video material and mastering by The Pedalboard Orchestra.

This is a long ambient soundscape with the Modern Sounds Pluto semimodular synthesizer, supported by a few effects pedals, mainly the Strymon El Capistan with a short delay, and the Eventide Space reverb in Blackhole/Darkmatter preset, all in stereo. In the end the Chase Bliss/Goodhertz Lossy joins in with some filtering. This track is mainly set up in two different patches, one with his "moon"...

This is a short playthrough of the Korg NTS-1 digital mk II synthesizer. In this video I only scratch the surface of what you can do with this amazing tiny little box. Signal path goes from the NTS-1 mk II into the Strymon El Capistan, stereo out into the Chase Bliss/Goodhertz Lossy and the Eventide Space in Blackhole/Darkmatter algorithm. In this video a simple sequence is running on the NTS-1...

This is a very calm and meditative synth loop created with the fantastic Modern Sounds Pluto semimodular synthesizer. In this small setup Pluto is accompanied by the Chase Bliss/Goodhertz Lossy and the Eventide Space in Darkmatter algorithm, all in stereo. For this loop I used mainly Pluto's sequence 2/voice 2, modified by Pluto's moons, and playing a few single notes on voice 1 of Pluto. All s...

This is the second part of my first recordings with improvisations on the SOMA Lyra-8 using a small board of effects pedals. The SOMA Lyra is a sound beast but it is a lot of fun to create drones and noises with this machine. In this setup it came up with some intuitive and meditative drone sounds. I love to modify the Lyra drone with the reverse effect from the Old Blood Noise BL-44. Signal pa...

This is my first recording of improvisations with the SOMA Lyra-8 into a small pedalboard, resulting in very intuitive and meditative drone sounds. Signal pathway was playing the SOMA Lyra-8 into the Old Blood Noise BL-44 Reverse, Strymon El Capistan and Eventide Space (Darkmatter preset). Additional modulation by the Old Blood Noise Expression Ramper. Especially the Old Blood Noise BL-44 Rever...

This ambient track evolves on a microloop/drone from Chase Bliss Mood MkII with some random effects from Chase Bliss Thermae Analog Delay. Further "sound seasoning" is added by Chase Bliss Generation Loss MkI, Chase Bliss/Goodhertz Lossy and Meris LVX (Magnetic Shift). It is also my first use of the Source Audio Ventris Dual Reverb. The video is a little reminiscence of Duchess Louise of Meckle...

This aerial track consists mainly of sounds from the Chase Bliss Reverse Mode C and Chase Bliss Habit, modified by Chase Bliss Lossy. These three pedals are kind of a dream team for ambient looping soundscapes. RMC and Habit are such inspirational delay pedals. Full credits of the active Pedalboard Orchestra members at the end of the video. All sounds are exclusively from electric guitar, modif...

"Lossyfication" is about my first use of the beautiful Lossy pedal from Chase Bliss. It is a collaboration between Goodhertz, who created the Lossy plugin, and Chase Bliss. Lossy can create random artifacts and many beautiful moods of sound. I especially love the filter on this pedal. This track consists of loops from Chase Bliss Habit and Chase Bliss Mood MkII, modified by Lossy. The loops are...

"The Drone" is another ambient track which I recorded in 2023 in my first days with the Chase Bliss Habit Echo Collector. Of course many other members of The Pedalboard Orchestra helped performing these complex floating drone sounds. The recording quality was not up to my expectations, but I finally remastered the track as good as possible and put together a video with AI-created photos from Ad...

"Oscillations" is an ambient track which I recorded in 2023 as a first try with the Chase Bliss Habit Echo Collector. The Habit is still quite a mysterious pedal for me with pretty unexpectable and surprising results. But it is fascinating and I will further experiment with it. I was not very happy with the recording quality and some clipping, but I finally remastered the track as good as possi...

Makes me think of space. In a very cinematic way. Great sound. The name suits it. Feels far and solitary, and yet there is happiness in that solitude. Great piece of music😊
🔥💖🔥
Excellent work, sounds so orchestral….nice synthphony🖤! Greetings 🖖👽
Thank you very much for the compliments, I'm glad you like it. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. 🙌🙏
Nix and Croissant 🥐....such a lovely sound....I can't wait to hear more from the new Dark Star pedal ✨
Thank you very much 🙌🙏💞
Sounds amazing! The new Darks Star is really something special and you do a great job showcasing it! 💙🖤
Thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏 I love the sounds from Dark Star 💙🖤
super Anlage, echt starke Qualitäten
Vielen Dank für das Kompliment 🙌🙏
Nice performance! Super ethereal! How do you like the Pluto? It’s got my attention…
Thank you very much for the compliments. 🙌🙏 I love Pluto, it is such an inspiring instrument, perfect for experimental and intuitive sounds, but also for pads or rhythmic sounds. I already made a few more tracks with Pluto and they will not be the last. 🖤🖤
stark,👍,👏 lG Micky
Vielen Dank für's Kompliment 🙌🙏
Love it! Another beautiful piece :) Thanks for posting this!
Thank you very much for the compliment and kind words 🙌
👏🏼👏👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿
Fantastic dimensions, feels like how the moons would sound 😄
Thank you very much, I appreciate your support a lot. 🙌🙏💞
Lovely use of the Outward helmut! Brilliant music.
Thank you very much, Doug. 🙌🙏 Outward pedal was a little neglected recently, but I thought for Pluto it is a good choice. 💜
It sounds like a "pause in time". Wonderful result !
Thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏
What a fantastic smooth sounds out of the Lyra….🖤what a seldom special the Lyra with gentle sounds…amazing work mate! Greetings 🖖👽
Thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏 Actually these two tracks with the Lyra will be my last ones. Lyra is too time consuming to create usable sounds for my intentions. It is so unpredictable. I'm currently selling it for some Moogs.
I‘m very impressed, your creations are amazing….love the chill tunes🖤! Greetings mate🖖👽
Thank you so much for your time to listen to my sounds. I appreciate it a lot! 🙌🙏
Yeah, like your stuff very much🖤 so I must subscribed! Greetings mate🖖👽
What kind of cables with leds did you used?
Thank you very much for subscribing. 🙌🙏 I'm glad you like my noises.
@Somnambule these are the "Halo" from myVolts (in collaboration with Andrew Huang). Really nice patch cables, unfortunately a little pricey. For Black Week they have currently a 30 % discount (MVBF30), so I might stock up a little for my soon arriving DFAM & Subharmonicon.
Very nice tunes with the Pluto…little device but sound great! Greetings 🖖☺️
Thank you very much. 🙌 Yes, Pluto is a very inspiring little synth. 🖤
This Drone is stunning, sounds amazing...
Thank you very much 🙌🙏
Another beautiful one, great work!

an exciting sonic adventure....................nicely performed and presented
Thank you very much for the kind words 🙌🙏
So spectacular, entrancing ♥️❤️♥️
Thank you very much 🙌🙏💕
Wow these are gorgeous sounds. Amazing work!
thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏 the Modern Sounds Pluto is a fascinating little synthesizer 🖤
Mate you keep on making such a great case for the Pluto! I’m having an exceedingly hard time resisting the thing ❤ you’re making great sounds with this setup!
Thank you so much 🙏 Pluto is really one of the most exciting and inspiring instruments in my home. 🤩
glorious
Thank you 🙏
it's really exceptional stuff...................
@@willswitchcraft thanks again, I appreciate your compliments a lot 🙌🙏 I'm just a hobby home musician with not enough time for my hobby and these are just my first experiences with Pluto. It's an amazing synthesizer, it is a lot of fun. Stay tuned, another 25 minutes piece with Pluto is on the way .. ..
sounds great......
Very cool Helmut!
Thank you very much, Doug 🙌🙏 This little sound monster is amazing 🤩
This litle setup sounds awesome! Beautiful 🙏🏻🕊✌🏻✨
Thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏
Wow, this sounds incredible. I really need to get into synths one of these days. Great work!
Thank you very much Aaron 🙌🙏 This little synthesizer, the Modern Sounds Pluto is fantastic. It works great already stand-alone, but also with pedals. A less pricey alternative for a start would be the Korg NTS-1 Mk II, which I just bought second hand and which I probably receive today. It's worth checking it out.
Sweet setup.
Thank you very much 🙌🙏
Beautiful !
Thank you very much! 🙌🙏
Very calm indeed ... The result is awesome ! I did a bit of search for Pluto...nice machine !!! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much 🙌🙏 Yes, so far Pluto is not so widely known, but it is one of the most fascinating instruments I ever had in my hands. You can hardly get a bad sounding sequence out of it. With its built-in delay/reverb it is an instantly enjoyable stand alone instrument.😍
@@ThePedalboardOrchestra It is a nice feeling to buy a module or synth and know that you made the right choice !!! Enjoy it and - please - share with us 😁
Sooooo dreamy! Loving it!
Thank you very much 🙌🙏
Got lost in an eternal pause. Dreamy enough ... Thanks for sharing your first contact with this synth...really interesting ! Enjoy and create !
thanks for stopping by and listening.🙌🙏
Very cool ambient set! I like those small and thoughtful moves with pedal knobs! Sounds great! 👍
Thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏
Score some films ❤
Thank you for sharing .... Old Blood Noise sounds great on Lyra-8. The result is fantastic !!! 👍
Thank you very much for the compliment 🙌
@@ThePedalboardOrchestra You are very welcome. Love the way you treat your Lyra-8 ( so many wonderful pedals ) 🙃
Fabulous, Helmut! Really beautiful.
Thank you Doug, I very much appreciate your compliments 🙌🙏
Beautiful!
Thank you, my friend 🙌🙏
What do you have going through your Matrise?
Matrise Loop 2: Montréal Assembly CT5, Drolo Fx Stamme[n], Pladask Elektrisk Fabrikat, Pladask Elektrisk Draume Matrise Loop 3: Chase Bliss Thermae & Blooper Matrise Loop 4: Chase Bliss Mood & Gen Loss Matrise Loop 1: all the rest of the pedals (main signal chain, going into the DSM Simplifier and the stereo pedals Meris LVX, Eventide H9 and Eventide Space) Of course I usually use only a variable selection of pedals, never all loops together. But Matrise allows to blend them together or fade in and out various loops in real time.
Coming back here to chime in again and say that not only is the Audio great but the video here is just as creative.
Thank you very much for the compliments 🙌🙏
beautiful
thank you 🙏
@@ThePedalboardOrchestra :)
Beautiful work Helmut! You are getting some wonderful tones and melodies out of this track. Bravo!
Thank you very much, Aaron. I appreciate your compliments. 🙌🙏
Sounds great! 🎶✨
Thank you very much 🙌
This sounds so cool, and I'm thrilled to read that you're shooting with vintage Zeiss lenses, too! Vintage lenses are so cool! I shoot most of my videos with a Helios 44m and a radioactive SMC Takumar.
Thank you very much 🙌 Yes, I'm using mostly vintage lenses too. I have a nice collection of Helios 44 and I especially love my Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 50 mm and the Meyer-Optik Trioplan 50 and 100 mm. Looking out for such a SMC Takumar too. The slow motion "bubbles" in this video were filmed with the Trioplan 100.
@@ThePedalboardOrchestra That's super cool! Sounds like a fun collection!
Wonderful result !!! The visuals are nice too. A pedal heaven... 🙂
Thank you very much for listening and leaving a comment. 🙌🙏
