    This is the best distortion pedal I have ever found. I highly recommend this to everyone. It might seem a little expensive but it is well worth it!

    This is 4 years old and I listened to this and then Rabea’s demo on this and compared it to the PSA 2.0 and this won. I dropped my change on this Strymon today.
    It’s still working on a selling tool level all this work. Cheers 🍻

    Many complain about the price range of the pedal, I see why and I agree to a certain extent (I do not own any strymon pedal):
    - How about other pedals like King of Tone, or other Klons? They have way more limited versatility with regard to the range of voicings you can get (real tone depends really on your setup, and it has to be evaluated live). And yet people are kinda fine with it being "holy grails" of driven sounds.
    NOTE: I'm not saying they're comparable/better. In fact this demo is mainly focused on high gain tones other demos focus on low gain settings which this pedal is really capable of.
    - This pedal offers a full tonal control (presence, full eq, high/low gain, mid push) in with a noise gate (a good one), boost, expression pedal control, favourite switch, (which is not a stand alone it does work in conjunction with other strymon pedals - it is not mandatory to buy strymon's external switch).
    - Last but not least, you see on youtube a lot of demos where this pedal is compared to all OCDs, TS, RATs.. It tells a lot about the voicing capability of this drive. Considered that this pedal wasn't developed as emulator of the mainstream sounds, it is simply versatile enough to get you in the ballpark of each of the most inspiring voicings.
    If some don't like it, it's fine and go for the next. But saying it's a complete crap I consider it a far-fetched conclusion

    Boost out can be used as a boot or favorite switch in other pedal. Exp out can be used with exp pedal as a volume pedal or morphing between 2 sounds (really cool feature).

      hugo h maybe they should do more sounds than the ones you mentioned "distortion, more distortion, more distortion". I mean your suggestions sounded like the description of their tones. They could actually do other tones than rock/metal too.

      +100 Hugo. "You've absolutely nailed it", as they say on the X-Factor. It could be a tremolo pedal and we'd still get squealy detuned metal at 100mph. Luckily, "That pedal show" does a great review of this pedal.

    • @coolman4202

    • @jfizzle6388
      @jfizzle6388 8 років тому +4

      A problem of over exposure maybe? It must be difficult to play other styles if that is not your thing, and you've made a million videos besides. Danish Pete and Mick are much more pleasing and interesting to my ear, but that's not Rob's fault. Personally I prefer to expand my own horizons nowadays by seeking out new shows and presenters... Does that sound a bit Star Trek?

    Thing with Strymon is that if you fall in love with one of their pedals, there's no substitute and you don't care what it costs you to get that into your life. I've got probably two pedals in total that I'd never part with, and one of them is my Flint.

    • @jburdsinfuse
      @jburdsinfuse 8 років тому

      James Cole I have a Möbius, Dig and Flint. Strymon does a killer job having niche capabilities like the golden ratio on DiG or Destroyer on Möbius, but still has modes that are traditional in nature like the Tremolo or Chorus that usable for most gigs.

I'm watching your content for like 3 years now and opposed to Bea/Pete/Mick, you seem to play the same riffs/lead lines/scales over and over again in your demos. Which is somehow disappointing because you are a very talented, intelligent man and guitar player. Otherwise the quality of the video is top notch as always, greetings from Germany!

      Depends, if you want something semi-transparent to boost your amp's natural gain structure, boss blues driver, ibanez tube screamer, or timmy, Archer or OCD, all of which are only half the price. If you want something to just stand out on its own, you should probably spend a few hundred more dollars on a better amp since digital distortion's almost always trash on its own, even in that strymon tbh.

    • @JammyGit
      @JammyGit 8 років тому +1

      Karol, I've got a marshall bluesbreaker that sounds great, you can probably pick 1 up these days for £50-60, or you can get the marshall guv'nor for the same, or spend a bit more and get a tubescreamer, or be adventurous and buy 1 of those hotone xtomp pedals for £200 and get about 20 or so distortion pedals plus all the other things you get on it. Surely you must know the overdive/distortion pedals you can buy for a reasonable price, but if you wanna waste £300 on this, go ahead 🙂

    • @JammyGit
      @JammyGit 8 років тому

      duck, funny you should say that because I was going to say that for £300-400 or thereabouts you can buy a decent little valve amp, such as the ibanez tubescreamer amp or something similar, there are literally loads to choose from.

It sounds a squillion times better (and less scratchy) in yer face than it did here. It didn't sound at all digital to my ears. Perhaps UA-cam adds some horridness or the mic-pre they used was burning - but seriously - get up close with one and I think you'll hear 299 squids-worth. I'm waiting for Santa to get me one.

      I have to say, it found the sweet spot, even when abused. The EQ section definitely gave a solid try at finding a sweet spot in the fizzy flubber.

    5:15 we finally get somewhere. Yes, this pedal does sound better than an MXR.

    Finally, a pedal with real options for live performance. When will other pedal mfgs learn all the diversity of a pedal is no good to a live player unless you can footswitch different sounds

    I have a question for you
    often I see you playing a barre chord ...we'll take G major for instance ...you then drop the G root a semi tone to the locrian note F# ....what is that chord now that you've changed the root position ?
    thanks

      Technically speaking, that would make the chord a Gmaj7 since F# is the 7th, or as you masterfully put, the Locrian note of G Major.
      It would not sound as clear though due to the fact that you would be playing the 7th, which is a color tone, in the bass.

      @darlingfarm9525 8 років тому +1

      John Gault
      If none of the notes change besides the root, the chord is a Gmaj/F# or you could just think of it as an inversion of a Gmaj7 in which the maj7 is the lowest note.
      The chord has more of a major 7 sound than a locrian sound because the chord still has a major quality not a half diminished quality

      +Joseph Mings cheers mate ....I know what you mean ......I didn't mean by using the F# it made it locrian ...it was merely a reference
      I thank you kindly ...makes complete sense ...ps check out Rick beato if you've not already ....mega technical but makes sense
      be good mate
      thanks again

    another question completely unrelated
    I bought a Gibson les Paul gold top 2015 and was wondering if would hold its value in years to come
    I personally bought the guitar specifically for the changes and absolutely love it ..thanks

    When you hit the favorite button, does it take over the current on? Or does it blend with the settings you currently have with the on button? Curious if it just takes over, sounded kinda like a blend a bit to me between the two

    • @marcstanford5857
      @marcstanford5857 8 років тому

      Lemonpi3 no when u hit favorite it just does that setting that u set up. Hit back the right side button and it goes back to where u had it. No blending.
