    OMG this reminds me of my (old-school) Alesis INEKO Multi-FX (which appears to have gained tons of value in past 20 years). Simple, excellent quality FX that "don't let the form of the pedal interfere with creativity." I love this product, this channel (esp Live episodes) and particularly Nick's "loss of composure". Hope that Hologram sells as many as they can make.

      I have the Microcosm and it’s amazing. So many videos about it focus on all the “weird” stuff it can do, which is true, but it’s also really musical and useful for less weird atmospheric sounds that add that special something. Really versatile. I’ve been interested in the Chroma Console but haven’t pulled the trigger. This is the best “demo” I’ve seen of it, and now I think I need to add it to my Microcosm.

    Glad that you've bought the Zoom 505 into the equation... Some of these Chroma sounds just as "digital" as those old multi-effect units were - but since the UI is nice, colourful and pretty most people just don't care. As they liked the tones when they thought it's coming from a tube amp and not from a Kemper. You could definitely find great sounds and inspiring tones in a 30 buck Zoom or Digitech or a ten times more expensive Chroma if you have the taste and ears. Nice pedal tbw, definitely more stupid-proof compared to the vintage, old-school stuff.

      @joelknutson2540 18 днів тому +1

      What’s interesting about this pedal is that I 100% agree with you, but after watching this I think we’re wrong. I haven’t pulled the trigger on this because of that, even though it could replace multiple pedals on my board. Where I think we’re “wrong” is that yeah, the drives definitely aren’t as good as other standalone drive pedals, or an amazing multi-drive pedal like the Chase Bliss Automatone. But in context, as soon as you add all the other layers, I think the drive becomes the 3rd or 4th most important factor in the sound. For a straight up drive sound for covering the Beatles, Stones, Zep, Nirvana, Pumpkins any metal or hardcore band, etc. this isn’t enough. If you’re writing original ambient/shoegaze/indie rock I think the drive sounds are plenty good enough. If using this for original music, and you lean towards one of those genres, this + microcosm + Morningstar MC6 + great amp or modeling pedal (tonex?) is all you need. And if you need to play covers and originals, then add Automatone for all of the amazing drive tones you need.
