Creative Crossover Parallel Routing | Great Eastern FX Co XO Variable Crossover | Deep Dive

Thanks to Great Eastern FX Co for sending out the XO Variable Crossover to check out: www.greateasternfx.com/produc...
The XO Variable Crossover is a creative routing, EQ, parallel mixing & expressive performance tool that allows you to separate the low and hi bands of your playing into different signal paths, and then creatively change the sounds of each band independently.
This creates an incredible stage for creative fx routing and approaches including layering different modulations, drives/distortions, and even lofi and ambient approaches.
Let's explore just a handful of different ways that the XO can be used to create interesting and beautiful tones!

0:36 Explanation/Walkthrough
8:11 Sound Samples - Modulation
16:24 Sound Samples - Ambience

This is awesome, thank you - I've been messing around with crossover in a sort of cobbled together array of boxes and this much more elegant , so glad someone decided to offer this in a pedal. Great video!

[@johnwyrosdick5817]

Great demo, sir! Flipping the bands at 15:25 was pretty magical. I love it when a mash-up, creative idea leads to even more creative possibilities.

[@signalpath]

I'm glad you thought so! I thought that was a pretty incredible moment as well. It's really cool to find things that work well and then flip the switch and find something that works equally well, but totally differently

[@AmbientEndeavors]

I wanted to hear about 5 more minutes of the intro noodling :D

[@signalpath]

you may or may not be in luck soon

[@wowwow4362]

Do the loops support stereo connections?

[@greateasternfx]

The loops are mono and the pedal is mono in/mono out. You can use the XO as a signal splitter though, sending the high frequencies left and the low frequencies right, which can create some pretty interesting results...

[@madProgenitorDeity]

thanks. what is the compressor pedal (cali 76) plugged into?

[@signalpath]

It's running from my tuner to the input of the XO!
