Hey everybody, it's Kenneth again! I thought I talk about my you my 10 favorite shoegaze pedals today. Long forgotten bargains, dirty noise toys, random glitch machines and brand new stomp boxes you should check out. While editing the video I discovered a damaged video file of material about the Catalinbread FX40 and the Glowfly End Credits. I'm very sorry that I won't demo these in this video. But luckily you can already find an in-depth demo of the FX40 on my channel at least. The End Credits is a looper with a time changing pitch knob. But other than that I hope you guys will have lots of fun watching this video. - Kenneth

well done! I like how you show that making interesting sounds is not about having expensive gear!
Hey Alex, thank you. I think it's always a journey finding good sounds. It's time consuming and you need to invest. That's why all of us buy the expensive stuff every now and then. We want to explore if it it does the joy right for the money. But often there are long-forgotten sound toys that seem to contain the real magic as those have been used during the earlier days by many artists.
those old zoom pedals are just lovely
Yes, back in 2006 I didn't know anything about effects and just played through them. But today I really appreciate the sounds from these little plastic machines.
That Pitch Shifter sounds so cool! It immediately made those standard chords more magical.
this video helped me understand that cheaper doesn't mean worse.
by the way, my favorite pedal is zoom ms-50g at the moment. bought it one year ago after watching lot of your videos about this thing. feel very happy with this little stuff)
thanks to you!
Wow, thank you so much for sharing your story. Means a lot to me. Cheap multistomps from the early 2000s seem to have very good sounds imo.
Just loved the final montage!!! Thank you to be back
Thank you, Daniel. I've had Corona three times in a row and tryied only to do stuff that isn't too much attatched to a computer. It was very hard to ignore the channel for 3 months. But there's more to come. :)
Sick set of pedals Kenneth!!
Man that final section with all pedals gives me chills better than therapy
awesome video dude! i just got a soft focus and i think it’s my favorite reverb i’ve ever used. i think i’m going to try the pitchfork next. thank you for the amazing gear info.
Hey Daniel, love the Soft Focus too. Best reverb I know in such a small box. And the same goes for the pitchfork.
My first pedal was the same one. That brings back seeing it, I loved the tuner on it
6:48 that chord transition sent me 🌃🎸
Very good demo of your pedals and the last part with all the pedals sounded great!
Thanks man. It was just noise but for that video format - I just had to do it. :D
@@berlinshoegazer Noise used strategically can add cool dimensions. 😃
Great collection! I really miss the old Zoom 505II that my best friend borrowed me when I was in my teens, sadly I lost it when I moved. Also the noise part at the end was beautiful!
Thank you, Johannes. The good thing about the Zoom 505II is that it's so cheap. Not many people making 'serious' music will notice it's potential.
that montage at the end was beautiful
Thanks, Rocky! :D
I always enjoy watching your videos. your content helped me decide to build a shoegaze pedalboard. I have none of the 10 pedals included in the video, but I guess the Digitech Polara is close enough to the Hardwire Stereo Reverb.
i’m pretty sure it’s the same algorithms as the RV7 so it should be pretty much exactly the same!
I use a polara and its wonderful. I usually use its halo setting for dreamier stuff
Thank you for your comment. You don't really need the pedals I use. I always try to stick to one specific sound, what turns out to be very hard when there is so much gear out there. Some artists - that I really enjoy listening to - used very similar sounds. But surey not the same gear. These pedals bring me close enought to the sound I like. And yeah, the Polara has the exact same Reverse Reverb sound as the Hardwire RV7. I would rather use a Polara too, as it looks so great and is smaller the the old Hardwire. But it has not the "gated" setting. So I had to stick to this rare dinosaur. :D
great sounding set up!!! and very nice ending!!!
thank you so much!
if I were a Shoegaze player, I would probably go with a Generation Loss, Keeley Dual Delay and a Strymon Cloud Burst
Hell yeah I love glowfly pedals i just got an Albert gramophone simulator and I'm waiting for more episodes to be in stock and they were gonna make a custom glitch pedal for me and I've seen that Alesis pedal for very cheap .I usually have all my effects built so I can get hard to find stuff cheaper
Nice collection of pedals, and the noise at the end was great. You could add a bass line and some drums and you'd have a song. Have you ever tried any death by audio pedals? You should look into them if you haven't (I just got into them myself and have been pleasantly surprised) great video as ever
Thank you. Yes, I played the Waveformer Destroyer for a long time until it was a little to huge for my board. But those sounds are great!
Dude, 11:00-11:50 sounds AWESOME so does the Katzen Jammer. Very tempted to buy all that stuff though I shouldn't cuz I just dropped a lot on shoe gaze equipment
That glow fly pitch delay sounds very similar to the particle reverb on the zoom multi stomp. There’s a setting on that effect that gives that sound I just can’t remember what it’s called
Yeah, that's true. It feels to me just a little more random and has some less annoying high frequencies.
thanks for the upload! i've seen and really enjoyed a few of your other videos, but this is the first one that i've seen with that particular guitar... is that a mod for an akai mpx8 that i see there? i'd really like to see how you integrate that into your process.
Cool collection my friend !
Thank you, Tony. Some of these pedals seem to be more rare than I exected.
Awesome vide! I just got a zoom 505 because of this video, What are your setting on the zoom 505 at 8:38?!
Kenneth after watching your review of the zoom guitar 505 ii pedal with that dream pop-ish sound i bought it immediately. Like you said just for that effect alone its worth it!
Absolutely. It is so cheap and gave me many hours of fun. 🙂
@@berlinshoegazer Mine arrives in a week. can't wait to make some music with it.
I love it.
Thank yoooouu!
Killer sounds! Thrash master was my first pedal! ❤
Really? It has such a nice and dirty tone. Can't believe it's so hard to find.
They used to be cheap but a bit pricy now. Not sure if it's worth it, it's really just a scooped hm-2, right?
Interesting. I do the shoegaze, dream pop thing too and have over 50 pedals but I don't have any of the ones you just showed. I used to have a Midiverb 2 but sold it in the early 2000s (wish I hadn't). I recently picked up a Walrus Audio Lore, Keeley Parallax and Eventide H90. Different tools for the same job I guess. Almost bought the Catalinbread Soft Focus but it seems like a one trick pony and I can "sort of" get that sound with the Keeley.
the soft focus just sounds really really good. you can adjust the modulation and even take it away completely so it works well as an always on reverb as well!
That's true, the Soft Focus does that FX500 Slowdive reverb sound, but it does it very good if you're looking for that specific sound. The Keeley Parallax is also very good. I recently discovered a company here in Germany called Licht Laerm Audio who create pedals with never ending reverb tales with different modulation styles. Pure shoegaze.
Cool board. I keep coming back to it BC you actually know THE SOUND. I use Boss multi effects as well as pedals. I just got Catalinbread Soft Focus and it's an always on pedal for me. Now i want to try the EQD Ghost Echo and Dispatch Master. And that Zoom was outstanding on that A3 setting. Like soft focus then tape echo?
My Devi Ever Fuzz Goddess is ...
Shiva the Destroyer of glitch fest ...like that one you demo'd. Its a real mean momma of chaos. I use EQD Hizumitas for #1 Fuzz as its more in my EHX BMP fuzz wheelhouse. I think the EHX Green Russian #2 is a great dual use bass and gtr fuzz good machine.
The commercial in the middle was...
hysterical and brillant.
Detroit.
Hey Brian, thanks man! I'll check out your pedal recommendations.
@@berlinshoegazer Appreciate that appreciation. And I'll keep watching ur vids for new pedals. New & expensive or used & thrifty, shoegaze or other style. I am currently infatuated with stereo i/o echos & reverbs.
that Alesis unit is awesome i’ve never seen it before
Hey Daniel, it is very rare. But some people don't know that and are selling it for under 100 bucks on Ebay. It has very good reverbs.
Yep. The best pedals are the ones that work for you.
For the zoom 505 ii, what preset are you using at 8:46?
When I was a teenager all I had was a boss me 5 multi fx a crybaby wah and a few other pedals borrowed from friends I remember one was a zoom multi fx the size of a walkman it was mostly crap except the reverbs pitch and random filter
Is the Digitech DF-7 Distortion Factory still also one of your favorites?
Hey Kenneth! I was wondering if you released "Loop" because I have been trying to find it for ages.
Sorry, haven't seen this comment earlier. It's gonna be out this August with the new album.
That is the greatest guitar. I need one like that. Where do I get it?
I dont really get the vst pedals, amp simulations are sometimes ok but vst pedals always sound a lot worse than real ones
I also think so. Amp simulation is a weird thing. It can sound good without putting it in a specific context. But next to the real amp it sounds wrong in the mids and the highs are too present. Also the gain reaction seems quite artificial most of the time. I heard that Guitar Rig 6 worked on an AI solution for that. Need to check that out. And yeah, my distortion pedals could not be replaced with any vst plugin. Here analog is the key.
@@berlinshoegazer that is very accurate
Try softube marshall amps they are amazing
Ultraman!!!!
YESSSSSS!!
4:49 sound
ich glaub ich muss dieses Alesis pedal haben :D
Edit: ich habe es :) Auf Ebay gekauft wie neu! 30€! Man kann super viel damit machen :)
Ist ein super cooles Pedal aus den 2000ern. Leider nur noch schwer zu finden.
@@berlinshoegazer habe es auf eBay im sehr guten Zustand bekommen :) kommt morgen an :)))
@@Natacha1111 What? Da hast du richtig Glück gehabt, es ist sehr viel wert, weil es so selten geworden ist. Halte es in Ehren. :)
