Nice playing, but yeah , make another in stereo and really blow us away with your sweet style. I loved the destructive ending sounds. I’m enjoying this pedal much and I’m sure it will work wonders with my other ehx pedals and my tube pedals & amps! You play well dude, but a stereo demo is a must on top of this cool mono review.
It's pedals like this that have me seriously questioning all of the 'boutique' pedal pricing. With everything that's packed into this, and with how great it sounds - add the memory function, and expression pedal capability, how on earth can ANY company justify charging the same price for 15% of the features, or double for still less, but with an abstract claim that they sound better? With a blind test, who out there thinks they could clearly tell the difference between an Ocean's 12, and a Big Sky?
This guy is amazing at guitar and he’s a cool dude. He looks like a better looking and more charismatic Timothy Olyphant. Man I wish I could jam 25% as well as This guy.
I have one on its way...psyched. Here's another tip from what's I've seen, in Spring mode one can double click and get a reverb thumb/kick, like we would in a true spring. That's details and so freaking clever. This pedal is huge in scope, so looking forward to it. The one question I have, and I'll find out on my own when it gets here, is should I run it through the front or via send/return in the back? Understand though it's going through a tube driven Marshall Superlead riding it's power section tubes for gain. I do know it's generally good form if one is going to use return/send on an amp to run all time-based effect that way, and wahs and ODs and the like through the front. That's understood. Question is: what to do with that in the case of an overdriven-tube 100watt Marshall while getting the benefits of this pedal but not losing that OD tune from the power section? From what I've heard and seen so far is that it takes an overdrive pedal really well in front of it, me getting that overdriven sound from the tubes means that this will always be in front of the overdriven signal. Appreciate anyone's take and experience they have on this if any is had. Either way though, I'll find out soon, just looking to trim time and prepping planning for it. Pedals and gear make Covid almost bearable...gives me a great excuse to just bury myself in the studio. Ain't gonna lie, I love that part of it.
Congrats as I've had my eye on it since before it came out but this seems like the best quality and options for the price. What, if any, other reverbs pedals were you thinking about if you did not purchase the Oceans12?
I had several on my radar, but kept coming back to this one, as it's pretty much the only one other than maybe an Eventide that had two reverbs in one; and they can be linked together either via serial or parallel, which is great. Parallel would be them both blending together, and you can control that blend, and serial would be where you have one coming before or after the other. This is done with the "Functions" knob and secondary settings. I was also considering the Oceans 11. Keeley's Aurora was in there too as was the Walrus Slo; Walrus just released a new one which sounds nice, but almost twice the price of this one and it's a singular reverb, so this one has twice the reverbs and things like a spring kick; Oceans 12 is a better deal I think on many fronts. It's a great pedal, really well thought out with no detail spared. Sounds great. Can get very ambient sounds as well as some great surf style drip on it, does that really, really well. I am very happy I got it. Really like it. I would recommend reading the manual to get a good grip on it and what it can do, it's vast, but once you're familiar with it it becomes pretty instinctive. It's great, no regrets with it, it's a keeper.
@@bbbro34 Thanks for the feedback and additional information on tone.....of course the manual is important as I have seen a major complaints from reverb pedals whose manual has to be downloaded. I saw some real quality stereo reverbs and then with the tonal/option range as the Oceans12 has, only the Eventide can compare. Even if the Eventide was better in quality, the cost difference is too great IMO.....plus the feedback I get on the Oceans12 is fantastic. I also think it is great because it has usable/gigging value to what it provides vs. many other pedals that are cool but sound like they are more designed for a special effects audio group to be used in a movie. My budget is tight so I think if I pull the trigger on any pedal in the next few weeks, it will be the Oceans12. Thanks again and have fun with it!
I dont have the 12 i have the 11 but they’re close enough that i feel like i can input here; i use mine after a tube screamer in front of my amp and it does really good ambient shoegazy style stuff. Like using the auto infinite to get distant yet massive reverb tails or a very faint spring reverb with the gain cranked up. Im sure its awesome in the loop but my amp doesnt have one
I thought that wall tapestry looked familiar, my girl has that exact same print, just half the size, small world I guess? Haha! Lol your vids man! Cheers lml
can I press and hold for chord’s momentary reverb sustain without any pitch weird jumps,and then solo on top?? I’ve heard that external switch can do that both latching and momentary reverb prolongation. Does it apply unsustained reverb to my soloing at the same time? Big thanks ❤
So much exciting capability, but unfortunately for me, no midi. And not clear on creating and saving a preset. Does it simply replace one of the 24 presets provided out of the box?
@@ScottHz for me coz about too exspensive for 1 pedal. Normally we use just like a normal pedal Boss type.. chipper . Maybe about $300/$400 ringgit . It’s $100 buck usd.
ehx has the WORST pedal names . mke mattews STOP . hire someone . mooer already has the ocean machine . dont bring some lame movie into it ...please mike , just put the pipe down .every time i hear these pedals names i hear them in a thick bronx accent too . super annoying .
When is your pedal coming out Petey? Instead of movie names, you should name them after red hot frozen burritos! And please do a stupid 15 min review on them.

Oh boy do i love when people review/demo a reverb pedal, on a amp with the internal reverb engaged. Oh boy oh boy...
I thought it was just me who noticed that.
Reverb B was always on. 🙄
I love that the only major advantage of this over the oceans 11 is that it is stereo... and he plays it in mono throughout.

@@-processdrone- doesn't it have a few more knobs that you can use to tweak each setting? Like setting predelay and the like?

This sounds better than a big sky. And more clear. Strymon is made in the USA supposedly though. That’s a big deal...
@@user-zv7lm8uk7h the EHX is also made in the USA tho.
Try to deny your G.A.S problem, but you're always going to buy just One more pedal....
Dude simply slayed in that intro bit. MAN. Great sound John!
Yes great beautiful playing!!!
Love the Queen intro that was great.
I love that pedal, but i needed a while to understand all the knobs and buttons...
and YES it has da Drip!
Very tasty playing Mr. Bohlinger👍
I bought the oceans 11 for the tremlo alone , the rest was just a bonus. great buy
ah, love John B! Great playing/demo!
😳😳😳 DAT INTRO THO 😳😳😳
Awesome interpretation .
This guy is amazing at guitar and he’s a cool dude. He looks like a better looking and more charismatic Timothy Olyphant. Man I wish I could jam 25% as well as This guy.
Wow reverb heaven 👹👀
I have this pedal. 🤗
Great review . . . want to go out and buy one. Cheers.
You’ve convinced me…. I need your hair
Epic intro
Great John!

I had an Oceans 11, TC HoF and Keeley Aurora: all sold. Bought a Flint: 3 reverbs plus 3 trems, one box. Less tweaking, more playing. Done.
works for ya, that's what counts
Hey mr. Logan. I see you everywhere on guitar related videos.
I feel you. When there's too much shit to turn and twist , playing gets second place-wrong!!! Less is more
can I press and hold for chord’s momentary reverb sustain without any pitch weird jumps,and then solo on top?? I’ve heard that external switch can do that both latching and momentary reverb prolongation. Does it apply unsustained reverb to my soloing at the same time? Big thanks ❤
Wow! 4:07 really sounds great. Love that tone!
I have the 11 but this is even more gorgeous! And real men do use music stands to hold pedals for demos! Lol
Can you run two inputs into it simultaneously, such as a keyboard left and right stereo signal?
All this for the price of one “ boutique “ delay or overdrive. Nobody even come close to EHX and Boss ! Nobody.
So much exciting capability, but unfortunately for me, no midi. And not clear on creating and saving a preset. Does it simply replace one of the 24 presets provided out of the box?
Nice intro
Jon B is the coolest.
Is it possible to change presets on the fly? I mean, with your foot during a live gig?
👍👍👍👍
Can you utilize expression pedals from other brands, say Stone Deaf, or Boss, you recon?
The Andy Timmons arrangement in the intro?
yo whats that chord right at 4:59?
Just when I wanted to STOP buying pedals...
How much cost it is?....$$
Google says ~$238USD. ;)
@@ScottHz tq bro. Am Malaysian🇲🇾🇲🇾. It’s almost $ 1000 ringgit myr. Woww
@@ScottHz for me coz about too exspensive for 1 pedal. Normally we use just like a normal pedal Boss type.. chipper . Maybe about $300/$400 ringgit . It’s $100 buck usd.
@@ScottHz anyway good pedal. Digital pedal not analog. That why very hard the prize. Tq
@@lapendosnaz maybe the EHX Oceans 11, it is ~$159USD.
I have been playing using reverb for 50 years . I never spent more
than ten seconds “Dialling In “ a reverb . So It os a no from me
.
Man you look like Billy Bob Thornton
This or the rv500?
Both. Rev will be thinner but more clear. This will be more mid heavy.
This pedal looks like an onstage mistake waiting to happen
Exactly my thoughts
If you are a shoegaze player there are no mistakes, there are just complex reverb trails. :-)
You remind me of white Keanu Reeves
why did you leave the amp reverb on when demoing a REVERB PEDAL? nice useless demo
Talks way too much, anywhere I would skip through this 17 mins all I heard was "let's see what this does".
ehx has the WORST pedal names . mke mattews STOP . hire someone . mooer already has the ocean machine . dont bring some lame movie into it ...please mike , just put the pipe down .every time i hear these pedals names i hear them in a thick bronx accent too . super annoying .
When is your pedal coming out Petey? Instead of movie names, you should name them after red hot frozen burritos! And please do a stupid 15 min review on them.
I suppose the canyons 11 & 12 along with the mod 11 was named after a movie as well? who's worried about a name?
