The Most Powerful Pedal You Didn't Know You Needed
Using a blender pedal in your setup can help you combine and stack signals from several different effects and blend them perfectly to your needs. With the Old Blood Noise Signal Blender you can set up two different loops to use separately or together. On top of that, there are several very useful routing options available with this amazing swiss army knife pedal. In this video, I'll walk you through a few different use cases.

    I wonder how you think it compares to the Life Pedal?

    • @DrewCreal
      @DrewCreal Pƙed 4 hodinami

      They are comparable, the Ox Fuzz is a little nastier, where as the Life Pedal is more compressed and smooth. I love them both but if I had to pick one, I’d go for the Ox.

    One problem with the looper & Airstep is that you cant use both if you have Airstep SPK model. You have to change channels manually on the Spark 40.

    At first, I was taken aback by your opinion these budget pedals, I'm currently one of those who are into budget pedals, but i realized that you were still actually being quite reasonable , you cared more about people having the best , not out of being relevant or up to date with the latest expensive gear, but to ensure what they purchase is something they can at least hold on to on the long run. You are telling people to be cautious because there is some truth to what you say, some of these companies don't actually care. Anyhow, you got subbed, even though im more on the budget side of things, i totally understand your take and it would be good to hear out different takes and opinions. tc and hope to see more videos from you dude.

    I wish people would stop talking about The End as if it were The Muse. It’s a classy joint. I’m not saying the muse was a bad place either. It was a different aesthetic. But The End is clean venue. I respect the hell out of Bruce for keeping that place alive while all this shit is going down in Nashville. Sure it’s dark and off. But that’s just its vibe. You definitely won’t catch hepatitis from the bathrooms. The End is the perfect venue for bands that are about to take off.

      No shade on The End at all, we love The End and Bruce keeps it clean in there. The bathrooms are a punk rock experience for sure, but you're right, they are clean. Could you describe The End as classy? It depends on what your definition is of that word. Thanks for checking out the video.

      When I play live through my tube amp I use the Endless Blockade with all the inputs, keeps my rig dead silent even with high gain pedals going into an already high gain amp. I'm not sure why you would need something like the Spliff, a $50 used tuner from Boss would do the trick to serve as a buffer before the Endless Blockade. And you need a tuner right?
