Chroma really pairs well with the Vermona. I'm really happy with mine, versatile, and easy to use. It's one were the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts too.
Looking forward to your review of this one 👍🏻 Hopefully you can do a little comparison to the Analog Heat +FX, too. Yes there are quite some differences when it comes to the specs, but also some similarities.
I think they dont overlap at all, very different vibe and concept I feel. The chroma is more a creative color tool, the heat more of a master bus refiner
@@OoraMusic okay… from my POV both are multi effects processors, but the Analog Heat +FX seems to be more versatile (and therefore more expensive). It also offers an analog FX section, especially for warming and colorization of the signal. But then again, I have to base this opinion on online reviews… from that it looks like the +FX section offers digital effects of which some are also available on the Chroma Console.
That was also one of my first thoughts, a comparison would be nice. But not only the price, also workflow and the effects seem to be quite different. Maybe I give the one of them a chance.
@@heikoelswyk7735 found a tips & tricks video from #GroupTechnologiesAustralasia on the Analog Heat +FX that shows how to use it with the MIDI sequencer of the Syntakt (Digitakt or other Elektron box) for more creative control of the individual effects. Great one, too 👍🏻
@@maikvanrossum very interresting, but I find the Video from Frederico about the Analog Heat in combination with the Analog Four also very interresting. But I think for myself at the moment the Chroma Console is better fitting into my workflow.
both fall into the retro/nostalgia category to me, i would use the neon egg for cleaner operations and maybe more control. the chroma to add “vibe” and get stuff in the lofi zone
@@OoraMusic Yeah, it seems like they only sell from their website. I’ve searched for so long to find a Microcosm anywhere in a store here in Europe. Again, I love their products, but I’m not willing to have to ship them back and forth across the globe if anything needs to be repaired.
@@tomtebby7408 I know, but for me it’s less about price and more about not having to ship gear halfway across the globe and back if anything needs to be repaired. I can definitely understand supporting the manufacturer directly, though!
@3:30 this generation that embraces these 'new pedals' and their ruined sound have fallen short, my generation remembers when that ruined sound was exactly what we worked hard to avoid. If you ended up with that distorted mangled tone, it meant something had gone wrong, not that you’d achieved your goal. We didn’t love it-we dreaded it and spent hours trying to fix it. Honestly, it feels like a lack of creativity on the part of the pedal designers. Still, I’ve got to give them credit for having the guts to sell us back a sound we once despised. But since the new generation never had to deal with the headaches of bad tech, I guess the manufacturers win in the end.

He's sold it to me 🙂
You bet!
The Viking of Electronic music, super nice melody at the start!!! Thanks for the video
ahaha love vikings!!

Totally agree!
That first loops reminds me of a mix between Square Pusher and Aphex Twin. LOVE it!
Glad you like it!

Oora is the coolest

Sounds great, would you buy this or Generation Loss MK2?
How does this compare with the NeonEgg unit you demo previously?

Hologram makes such wonderful stuff. If only they would sell it in stores, then I would actually buy most of their products.
i didnt know they only sell directly

I bought both the microcosm and chroma console direct and had them shipped to the UK - certainly cheaper than buying them off flea bay.

bought my Chroma 2 months ago, still in box, havent tried it yet.
