I appreciate your video! I have a Zoom SG50 on the way because I didn’t want a bunch of pedals all over the table. I can’t wait to see how it works with my synth. 😏
When I first started on synth I really liked Bernie Worrell funk sounds and just had to have a phaser. I ended up with a modfactor and now love the flanger also for the rich and distorted industrial sounds. Recently found a deal on an empress echo system and have just touched the surface of experimental delay. Overall pedals open up a whole new world of sound and feeling to your creativity.
🙏🙏🙏I sure think so, I've had more "ooo that's the sound" moments with pedals than anything else

Thank you for this lovely series! Something like this has been long overdue. Superb job! By the way, I'd like to add something on how the Ibanez CS9, and most other Ibanez/Maxon stereo choruses for that matter, achieve their stereo image. The dry signal is present at both outputs equally. The wet signal coming out of the inv. output has its phase flipped. Therefore, it's 180° out of phase with the wet signal coming out of the main output. Furthermore, because the phase of the inv. wet signal is flipped, the dry/wet phase relationship at the inv. output is different than the one at the main output. That's all there is to it. One LFO, one BBD, same delay time.
Jorb this is a fantastic video, so fun to watch with the oscilloscope and your clear explanations and good playing, and very educational and useful. Well done
Absolutely loving these videos, you have a really relaxed way of putting the information across without getting too technical or it getting bogged down in detail. Please keep them coming, they're great for inspiring thoughts and ideas. As it happens, I've just recently set up my Prodigy going into a Boss PH-3 > CE-5 > RV-5 and a JP-6 going onto a CE-20 then a DD-8 and that's covering a lot of sonic ground.
I am working my way through this one and wanted to stop and say thanks! Love this content and I’ve learned some stuff along the way. I’ve been on the hunt for a chorus pedal for quite a while and I’ll be damned if I don’t get one soon! Thanks Jorb!
I've been using the Walrus Julianna for a while now, had it on my Matriarch for a while which was interesting, because it took some highs and lows off it and helped it fit into the mix, but robbed it of some of that Moog power. Since I got a Nymphes, it stays on there 24/7. Fits with it so perfectly it's just become part of the sound for me. Doesn't drastically alter the tone like it does with the Matriarch, but rather perfectly leans into what's already there. Takes that warm, watery depth of the Nymphes and makes it stereo, and adds lovely movement.
Loved the video, though that sudden noise around 25:45 made me jump LOL. I recently started collecting a small amount of pedals, and currently have the TC Electronic Hall Of Fame, Flashback, and Corona. Haven't had a chance to do much with them yet, but it's cool to hear some examples of similar stuff.
zoom ms-cdr... have great review on tube btw... but i use multiple cheapo behringer... from wah phaser flanger... and they have filter machine... and at the end use delay... and reverb on the mixer
two classes of pedals I would throw into this video would be Vibrato and Tremolo. I've never messed with Tremolo but Vibrato I have on my Yamaha SHS-10 Keytar.
Good job. Love me some phasers too. Kinda want to bite the bullet on the strymon zelzah but also want to wait on the behringer bi-phase or whatever it's called
This cleared up a lot of mystery with pedals and importantly how and when to use them. Watching the June-60, to me it looks like the LFO(s?) generate a square wave on one channel and the triangle in the other?
Because there's a combination of the dry signal + a pitch modulated one, what you see on the scope is a little less indicitive of what you're hearing than having just a synth straight in to the scope. The lfo in the June 60 is (I believe) a triangle, and it effects the pitch modulation of both channels slowly, & doesn't change the filtering / wave shape of what passes through it.
I don't use hardware much but it would be interesting to see more pedals with CV inputs, so they could be properly used with modular. I think as guitar pedals get more complex and Eurorack continues to become more popular, the two things are converging to an extent (the Zoia for example is basically a modular stompbox). Also, if you have a delay with CV and some mod sources, you can create any of the time-based modulation effects from scratch. I don't know if anyone does this with hardware but I like to patch chorus/flangers etc in VCV from basic modules. Arguably pointless but quite interesting to geek out with! 😉
Cv backs are getting more popular, as euro does! And pedals with expression jacks can use a module to control that. There are some rack effects that do that, give you enough control to go between delay chorus and flanger! Really dope I think, people can for sure understand it
Thanks for the vid. That Oberheim is wonderful. I am a big fan of the "ensemble" effect. Hard to find an outboard pedal/device that does the "Solina" ensemble thing.. I am also interested in buying a hardware oscilloscope. Ease of connectivity is important. Any suggestions out there?
Cheers, thanks for watching! You're right, there aren't many pedals that do the proper ensemble thing. I use this B&K precision 1530, but anything with channel triggering would be great for synth visualizing
Nice overview, but those sudden clipping cracles in the middle of video was scary :D I think you can edit them out in youtube studio without reuploading.
Envelope filter pedals. What's an octaver, officially? An octaver, obvi, maybe it's its own category... Oh yeah, and bit crushers! It would be boring but a cycle of budget compressors, like the Mooer Yellow, any/Behringers, esp. on mono bass and drum machines. Admittedly its a mix thing, not particularly a sound design thing, but still. Yeah, it would be very boring 😴 Also Leslie emulators. You know what would be cool is if someone built an lfo pedal. And another recklessly super fun thing to do, which would probably find itself in the distortion video, is putting reverb at the front of a pedal chain, hopefully followed by at least a healthy drive pedal. It's a lot of fun!
This may be a dumb question, but where do you place those pedals? I mean, with guitar they'll be either between the instrument and the amplifier or in the effects loop of it, but with keyboards, which usually have stereo outputs, where?
This might be my favorite educational series on UA-cam. I've repurposed several of my old, unused guitar pedals on synth thanks to you
🙏🙏That's exactly what I hope to inspire, cheers
Oooo, that Six Trak through the Oberheim Phasor, I could listen to that all day. What a sound!
me too tbh, really fun combo
My name is Mikkel and i love Jorb !

I cut a big chunk about different chorus types, actually, way to many implementations of it
Thank you, I love how you explain things about synthesis. For us newbies, this is really helpful.

RV-5 is one of my all time favorites, and I've wanted to try a PH3!
Enjoyable, this is my new second favourite synth pedal series. Great work.
Damn Jim, whos the first? lmao jk
@@JorbLovesGear Have you seen Gwem's 303 pedal shootout series. A 303 with 60 different distortion/overdrive pedals. It's a masterpiece.
Great video! I'm a sucker for modulating effects, especially phasers. Best used with string machines and a delay. :)

Nymphes really does well with some stereo chorus. Good stuff!

Great line up, I think the hall of fame and flashback are super super solid
Leaving me thirsty for a nerdtacular explainer of ring modulation. That's my favorite setting on my multifx modulation pedal.
Audio rate tremolo! I think it comes up in my minilogue review, not sure.

Awesome, thank you!
Well if it isn't the Klon of phssing.
🙏🙏🙏Oh my god the klon of phasing.
Isn't that a crazy 'oh wow' moment, that so many things work on the same principles
Another banger from Jorb
Took so much will power to keep this under 90minutes.
Almost as much will power as it took to make it through the Haligtree.
Good job. Love me some phasers too. Kinda want to bite the bullet on the strymon zelzah but also want to wait on the behringer bi-phase or whatever it's called
If the zelzah had options for stages I would be all over it. It's always one 4stage + one 6 stage right?
@@JorbLovesGear yep, you're right! and also the reason i haven't bought it yet too
This is all fine and dandy, but what is Gwar doing?
Six Trak sounds great !
its becoming a 'keep it forever' synth for me, tbh..

Never tried them, but dreadbox has some models with 2/3 CV in/outs. They can interact with each other in a way you could get creative with
Two thumbs up here for the Mr Black Vintage Ensemble … I use it on pads with the Matriarch ..
Oh dope. Handles line level signals well?
@@JorbLovesGear Levels for synths seem fine out of the box. I’ve also had good experiences with their Twin Lazers phaser on synths.
Thank you.
Stop making them so long. I had to take a nap in the middle.
