  • I was wondering "how would it sound the saddest song with the saddest texture?"
    I was testing the added texture of both El Capistan and Shallow Water pedals in keys.The organelle is running thru the SW and the Reface CP goes thru El Capistan.
    At the end a mistake made me laugh, I need to study more this song! But I really enjoy the sound texture.

    A good way to think about it, a guitar pedal is just a standalone analog audio processor, with a foot switch. A man can really make an analog console with just guitar pedals and turnout a pretty adequate mix.

      Thank you Hristian. This is a flight hard case for a DJ mixer, which conveniently was almost the same length as the Reface. However you might need to double check the dimensions. The one I have can't be closed with everything I have on the top, and just for an inch.

    you're good. mistakes are part of life. UA-cam is full of videos of musicians playing everything. exceptional beings. very difficult scales, latest generation musical techniques.....but......they never play anything. Zero. They run quickly from one side of the musical octaves to the other, but they don't play anything. You have chosen a very particular musical author and you have brought out sounds of your taste.... there is research, there is interest, there is imagination, there is love for music and yes!!!!! there is also the error. I like !!!! I congratulate you. And may God make all karaoke musical backing tracks, Midi musical backgrounds, etc. etc. disappear from the earth... in this world of guitar samples... keyboard samples, percussion samples... etc. etc....I saw your video and it gave me hope that some human being, some musician in the soul, still exists.
