I know I’m two years late and we aren’t in the pandemic anymore, but yes this is exactly the sort of content I like. I love the comparison between capacitors etc. I’d watch this all day long.
I miss quarantine 😢
@@adriatic.vineyardsreally?? No way!! ha… Now, I’ll admit that the free time/ “adult snow day” vibe was definitely cute for about two weeks. However, I personally get a sour taste in my mouth when I see these lockdown videos, andI remember how violated I felt from the obvious government overreach
Great Stuff, Brian.
As I see it, you and Josh fill different niches. Josh is The Biggest Pedal Fan in the Universe, and gets us all charged up with his enthusiasm YES, I need fifty different Screamers in the same box .
You on the other hand are the Bob Ross of electronics, "How about I put a diode here . . what kind of diode? Well . . you can't go wrong with a 4148, so how about we put a pair of happy little 4148s here for some soft clipping . .and maybe a 741 opAmp here . . .it's your pedal . . you can make it however you want..."
hahahaha! 😂
Best comment! 😅😅😅💯
I couldn't have said it better .
There is no wrong or right in here, just happy little accidents.
Put the 1k through the holes, cut off the excess and just >>ha, ha
I love the part when Brian says, “Us do-it-your-selfers.”
Like? Yes.
More? Please.
Do I want my chorus to sound like Whitesnake? Nope, I want it to sound like Alex Lifeson.
Good stuff.
Dimension C. Instant Xanadu.
Michael Cottle Yepp, the chorussy stuff on early Rush is easy enough, Dimension D or C or CE-1 plus a Mistress. „Show of Hands“-era albums are another kettle of fish. Haven‘t really found anything that can adequately mimick a TC 1210, and a „vintage“ 1210 is kinda expensive these days (1400€+ on Reverb).
Thomas Jefferson Erm, nope. Alex‘s rig on the HYF tour at least contained no less than. 6! potential sources of Chorus - GK CPL preamp (built-in), Dimension D, TC 2290, two TC 1210s, and a Yamaha SPX90, all run through mixers. Usage info conflicts between AL himself and his guitar tech at the time, so it‘s difficult to tell for sure now,
In any case, one unit for Chorus/Flanging isn‘t enough to cop his sound. My guess is that he used either the Dim D or one of the TC 1210 in spatial expand / doubler mode as the „baseline“ chorus, and added a 1210 set to a „chorussy flange“ for solos/lead parts, where the modulation thickens noticeably. The Dim D alone doesn‘t do the trick, and neither does a single 1210.
...l‘ve tried...
@Thomas Jefferson Mate, chill, all the albums you name aren't SOH, and yes, a single Dim D is definitely NOT enough for neither AL's live nor studio sound modulation sounds. And yes, there is conficting info from AL himself and his back-then guitar tech from various 80s GW, GFTPM, GP and NME magazine articles on what he used on which track and to which effect.
If it were as simple as "just get a Dimenson C or D", his SOH-era tone wouldn't be anywhere near as difficult to reproduce _closely_ as it is.

Just bought a breadboard to learn more about pedal and amp circuits as a hobby. Definitely interested in this stuff, Brian. Thanks!
What Branda will your pedals be?
Lol good one.
Or “what branda pedals are your fav?!” Lol

Loved the video, Brian! Always great content! Keep it coming!
Love it Brian. Thanks for the content as always. I have been really liking the last few circuit based videos. It properly brings the concepts to life and is inspiring me to dig out my old electronics gear and have a go. Stay safe
This is a very great resource for understanding pedal circuits! Please do more. BTW, Love that guitar color/pickguard combo!
This is amazing stuff, and incredibly useful/helpful. Thank you!!
This is awesome! Please do more of them!
These are the best. Helps to really understand how the parts interact with the signal. Thanks
This is so useful and insightful. Love this stuff! Thanks!
This video ruled! Thanks for this and I'd love to see more.
That was very informative and followed by a good practical demonstration ! I am definitively subscribing to that list !
This was great Brian. The concepts are applicable to more than just pedals. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Brilliant flippin idea with this one fella! Keep more like this comin!
please please make more of this content!! you are fantastic at explaining!
Thank you for making tutorials/videos like this Brian. I've always struggled with understanding how electronics work.
The video I’ve been waiting for!! Very cool, thank you kind sir!
That was great, really helpful and interesting. Thanks Brian.

Yes, would love more stuff like this! Great video
Love these kinds of videos!
That's a master class! Thanks Brian!
I love this kind of video. You really have great insight on how pedals work, and what all the different components actually do. You got some great tones out of your breadboard circuit. Thanks
No joke this was one of my favorites. Can I put in a request to do the same with the Rat? It’s the Year of the Rat and I’m building a few... Thanks Brian!
Matthew Lees yes!! Bring on the RAT.
Yep, works for me too. A good example of the various distortion families, but also a walk through some other classic pedals like, say, a Phase 90, compressor, octaver, ring modulator, or an analogue delay...
Fuck yeah! Would love to see a video like this of the Rat
Damn yeah, I was just gonna post that myself! The Rat would be great fun, swapping op-amps & transistors and all the tone mods & stuff!
Great video!
Looking forward to the next ones...
Great video, Brian! Yes, please do more of these!
Good stuff! I love that you are doing this type of vids, jump-starting new DIYers. It's extremely satisfying to breathe new life into not-quite-satisfying pedals bought as a novice player back when. I just finished my 5th one of those today.
I love this video and want to see more of this type of video. Thank you for this video
Love this stuff
I’m going to hit the bread board after this
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Keel 'em coming Brian! Love this content and I'm looking forward for more :)
Hey Brian, quarantine has awoken my inner DIY electrician, and this kinda content is super helpful! I'm definitely looking forward to more!
I would love to see as many of these demonstrations as you’re willing to post. Many thanks
Yeah Brain, more of this please!! Great to see you are doing well... Stay safe!
awesome vid !! I would love more of this type of content !!
Loved it! PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS!! I’d love your channel to go more in depth into pedal building.
Would love to see more of these!
+1 love this kind of video. Thanks for continuing to provide great tools for the DIY people!
Great video, loads of good information. Thanks!
Always waiting for this kinda video, please make this stuff more and more.
More of this please, it was very interesting!
Great show as always, Brian, personally, I love the "nerdy" type guitar, amp and effect videos, and I would definitely like more of them! You opened my eyes to several things I thought that weren't true at all! Thanks again, have a great week!
I would LOVE to see more videos like this!
I love these types of videos! Keep 'em coming. Greetings from Michigan!
This is extremely helpful - thank you!
Very cool, Brian! I'd love to see more videos, like this.
this was an incredibly informative video thank you so much
That was a really interesting video. I'd love to see more!
I'm entertained AND I'm learning stuff. Great stuff!
Loved it and I'm definitely looking forward to watching more content like this. I wish to see also what's your personal opinion on what's worth changing on a given circuit or not, like if you were to change something on a circuit what would be your first, second and third primary places to look at and why. This type of content is being a grate complement to your "how to modify your 'bd2/ds1' pedal" book. Keep it up.
Hi Brian,
This is exactly the type of video I asked you to do.
I love it! Thanks
Brian, thanks so much for making these kinds of videos. As somebody getting into DIY pedal building they're really helpful for learning how these circuits work.
Yes. Definitely do more of these. I love the nerdy info.
Great video Brian, of course we want to see more. Thanks,and stay safe!
This video is fantastic. Id would watch more of this all day.
Love this content. For the limited amount of quality content about guitar pedal circuit analysis and diy guitar/audio gear, your content is the most enjoyable and easiest to digest. Hope to see more like this in the near future. Thanks
This kind of "how it works" Videos is great!
Thanks for making it.
Yes! These are the kinds of videos we want. Thanks so much.
Thanks! Definitely do more of these!
Awesome, love to hear an in-depth analysis from a pro. I was just messing with this very circuit to make it better for bass, thanks!
I enjoy hearing this. I don’t really have a desire to diy myself but I like the knowledge.
I love this - DO MORE. Great idea!
Man, couldnt be more excited about this video. As a fellow DIYer, i love these videos and would love to see one on all the popular circuits. These type of videos teach me so much! Thanks for making them
Like it. Love it. Need more! This kind of information is exactly what a fair amount of us are looking for.
Wow, awesome backgorund gear collection!! and of course keep up with this content!!
It’s great to have a few clips like this one!
Great video, would love to see more, and with all types of effects.
Thanks for this video! I dabble in diy pedal building, and I learn tons from these videos. Please keep them coming.
LOVE this, would really like to see more dissections of other circuits and how the different components work together to create the final sound.
This was very interesting!! Really enjoyed it!
Really grateful for you taking the time to do this. I need to get a breadboard!
Love the nerdy stuff...thanks!
This was a great concept!! I really enjoyed it and learned a lot.
Absolutely fascinating. Always wondered what all the pieces inside of pedals are for! Thanks.
Love the DIY stuff!
