Hotone Djent - Tanner's Two-Minute Tryouts
Вставка

- Hotone Three-Pack! I'm admittedly no expert in the djent - I don't own a seven-string, I barely know whether or not it's a genre, and despite a recent obsession with Periphery (which pleases my buddy Steve immensely) I really don't know the first thing about, uh, djenting? Thanks Hotone for making a pedal that can at least get me 80% of the way there with 25% of the necessary skills.
Tanner's Two-Minute Tryouts are a series of fast demos of nearly one hundred guitar effects pedals. These aren't comprehensive pedal reviews - instead, I am looking for a setting that I find immediately inspiring and capturing the first thing that comes to mind. Sometimes messy, sometimes dreamy, always around two minutes.

Signal path: Fender Custom Shop David Gilmour NOS through a single pedal at a time into a Mesa/Boogie Mark V 90-watt combo, clean channel. I am capturing with a Neumann TLM170R through an Antelope Zen Go and minimally processing in Logic Pro.
Here we can see Tanner playing djent... On a strat... With single coils... This is a man who fears nothing, a man of hard commitment and straight discipline.
If you call what I’m doing “djent”, you’re braver than I.
@@TannerCundy all jokes aside, few parts of what you played could be related to that style and that's fine with me, considering this pedal is seen as a one trick pony... That being said, thanks for using single coils to showcase how this pedal actually reacts, for all the demos for this pedal I have seen so far are oven Humbuckers and playing specifically Djent, with no space for experimentation... I bought this pedal recently and as much as I like it, I can't cloud the fact that it's kinda hard to get sweet spots here and there.
@@onerandombruh I appreciate you checking it out! It's a style I respect mightily, but as a light n' sweet (mostly single-coil) player, I wasn't going to faithfully navigate the necessary skill gap to be able to pull off some real work for a demo video. I could see a player like myself using it for layering or sound design, but probably not for a featured riff that a djent aficionado would really get into, at least not without pulling out the Ibanez and woodshedding some real drop-tune work.
I do regret not having time to run the Moog through it, or a drum machine, just to see what happened...
My man T getting djenty with it!
Entry level djentwork, but an attempt was made. 🤘
Is it digital or analogue.
Thanks for the video
Thanks for stopping by and having a listen! If I recall right, all three of the Hotone Skyline pedals I tried out are fully analog with true bypass.
@@TannerCundy I only have the tape echo hotone pedal and I presume it's digital? For it's size it does reverse delay too.
@@patrickmcmanus5373 I believe the Eko, if it's that one, is a digital delay circuit. Everything I can find on this Djent seems to describe it as an analog circuit, though I am now seeing that the Harmony I tested is a digital circuit too. This might be a good question for Hotone but there's a good chance they were able to keep pure drive pedal like the Djent as all-analog and save the digital circuitry for the more complex effects.
on single coils knew it would be horrible
I appreciate you stopping by and giving it a shot anyway!
