- Visitor Parallel Multi-Modulator available at oldbloodnoise.com and participating retailers around the globe.
What is a Parallel Multi-Modulator? Dan's glad you asked. Let him explain the ins and outs of Visitor, then hear it in-context in the Old Blood Noise Endeavors Presents Visitor video, then find Visitor at oldbloodnoise.com and participating retailers around the globe.
Visitor has three different primary modulation options (tremolo, chorus, and phaser) and two parallel secondary modulation options (tremolo and chorus), Visitor immediately inspires new sounds in a single pedal format. Further strangeness occurs with the delay offset of the secondary modulation and the interaction of the secondary rate and the primary depth.
Visitor features:
Primary modulation switchable between tremolo, chorus, and phaser
Secondary modulation switchable between tremolo and chorus
Rate and Depth controls for primary modulation
Secondary knob to simultaneously control depth, rate, and delay offset of secondary modulation
Regen control for master feedback
Master mix control
Expression control over Secondary knob
Relay bypass switching and standard 9VDC center negative power

Dan. You’re a genius! I didn’t really get The Visitor until now. Now I get it... and I’m gonna get it!! Incredible design and usability! You guys always deliver! OBNE remains my favorite pedal company!
thank you Zachary, Visitor awaits.
These videos have an extremely therapeutic and calming element to them ☺️
Also the pedal sounds incredible!!!
that's really nice to hear, thank you
How on earth would we know that, based on this video? Dude wont stop..
So much this!
Even though this is an informative video, it made me feel a sense of calm. That loop is just so bittersweet. Love the pedal!
that's the aim. We want you to hang out and bask for a while.
Agreed. Absolutely love that loop.
That's an amazing amount of functionality and musicality from such a small pedal. Normally you'd think that a multi-modulation pedal might have completely separate depth/rate/mix knobs for each mod effect, but instead of going the usual route, you've created the primary/secondary interaction or depth/rate and that delay offset… unexpected, surprising, and ambient-coolness at no extra charge!
With the Garrett Young artwork and the washy sounds, Visitor feels like a cousin of Dweller, gotta get a Visitor and Signal Blend the two.
Keep pulling those strings! 🎈
kevotheclone I agree so much that I accidentally echoed your entire comment! 😂
That's great to hear, thank you. You are right about the Dweller connection, Garrett Young did the art for both projects. If you read the comic that comes with Dweller, there's a panel that directly foreshadows Visitor.
@@oldbloodnoise I'll have to find the comic and re-read it. FYI I know where my Dweller pedal is... at my feet, but the comic is in it's box... somewhere...
Why do I get the feeling that everything is going be alright when I watch, 'Dan Explains It All'. Warm and fuzzies❤
It's all in how Dan says "Hello."
When I lived in Austin there was a store that would let you rent up to three pedals a month and change them out as you pleased. I’d never heard of Old Blood Noise Endeavors at the time, but their pedals were consistently the ones I didn’t want to take back or exchange. Genuinely new sounds that were absolutely weird and useable. God bless ‘em.
What is the name of this store? I must find it and see if they're still doing this.
That's really cool to hear, thank you
@@austinwallace2692 , rock n roll rentals. I couldn't believe how many years I lived there without knowing about it. There's 2 locations and you can go to either one.
Goldman it. I’ve wanted this exact type of pedal for so long. Glad someone finally made it! Cant wait
Thank you
I just ordered it. I am excited to make some music with this! What a great video on exactly how this pedal works!
These are great. Love this kind of simple and straight forward approach to explaining. This pedal is amazing. I'd love to run two together.
Thanks Matthew!
Just gotta say I love these Dan explains it videos. Very informative and excellent audio, video quality and production. You’ve made me a fan for sure.
Thanks
thank you for the kind words
This was super helpful! I've had the Visitor for a few months and got some really nice tones out of it. But it was mostly by trial and error. I actually didn't realize that the signal flow was parallel and the Regen button was a big mystery. It all makes a lot more sense now. Great video, great pedal!
So glad I just watched this! I was watching Dan explain feedback and this demo popped up. I knew of the Visitor but thought it was just a trem, chorus, and phaser. This thing is way more than what I knew 15 minutes ago. Now it's yet another OBNE pedal on my hit list! Maybe Dan will buy a few of my basic Boss pedals so I can buy this soon.
Thank you Michael, that's what we like to hear
Really wasn't "getting" this pedal until today...a bit blown away now thanks to this and The Pedal Zone demoes
that's great to hear. It's a deep device. Pedal Zone is great.
Already sold on me with a secondary modulation! Intense!😍
This pedal is genius and I can't wait to have one. Also your presentation is super chill and this whole this in calming.
Only thing, I wish the LEDs were in his eyes, showing the rate of each mod lol
that's a fun idea
I hope V2 gets a flanger! Then it would be my dream pedal. Great work OBNE team.
I’ve been looking all around for a T/C/P to keep my board at a minimum. Thank god I watched the Pedal Zone year end review! This has all the basics I need, plus all the weird stuff I never would’ve thought of! Just ordered. Actually the first “new” pedal I’ve ever bought. Can’t wait!
hey, very cool Ben. let us know what you think of it.
Dan, you are the best at this.
he sure is
That’s a really clever way of making modulation more adventurous. Also, the way you grouped all of the secondary controls on one knob is fantastic. Seems counterintuitive at a glance, but it’s actually really streamlined and effective. It has the added benefit of letting me appreciate the artwork even more, which you knocked out of the park as always. Super nice!
Totally agree!!!
thank you, that's a solid assessment. Thank you for taking the time to watch. Check out Garrett Young's artwork, he also created the art for the Dweller.
I've owned it for a few months now and absolutely love this pedal. I even like it more than dark star and that's saying a lot.
Love it. Mac DeMarco in a small enclosure. Looking forward to getting mine.
Dear Dan,
this video just washed me away. I love everything about it! The Visitor is a beautiful looking and of course sounding pedal. The lighting in this video, especially in the overhead of the pedal is wonderful. Last but not least am i really really in love with the guitar loop you played, Do you have any plans on releasing this as a song or do you perhaps have any other music i can listen to?
That's so nice to hear! Thank you. This loop was made up right before the shoot, so it doesn't exist anywhere else at this time. Most of my recorded music over the last six years or so has been with my band Plain Speak, which you can find in all the usual streaming places.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I can't say how many I watch and don't learn anything. THIS is how it should be done. He may have just sold a pedal.
that's what we're going for, glad it is helpful
I mean wow folx! This sounds fantastic and so intuitive and exciting to use... hmm maybe I'll be checking the website around Black Friday.
thanks Ted, that's not a bad idea
I love these vids!!!
Thank you Cole
Really nice pedal, lots of versatility.
Thanks Rick
I got this pedal about two weeks ago. And I use it daily now. But I’m glad I watched this video to understand how it really works ha
Nice, glad it was helpful
Beautiful pedal
thank you, Ali
God bless you all, obne. I love this
we
so so so beautiful
Thank you Tori
I bought one at the three minute but i enjoyed this podcast
fantastic
when you decide to purchase a OBNE pedal you always get a quality pedal the knobs and switches feel good the artwork is always rad and they sound great
thank you those are very kind words
very nice pedal
thank you
Who plays on your demos? I love the Appleseed Cast vibes.
Man this is fucking great! So many lush sounds 💜
we
Great demonstration, thanks. I’m wondering if this will remain at unity volume? Especially with the tremolo. Definitely interested in this pedal and love the tones it can produce.
Thanks again
I’d love to hear some more examples of how this would sound on a synth because it sounds absolutely amazing.
First thing that comes to mind is The Cure’s Pornography
We've enjoyed all of the synth tests we've done thus far. More videos to come.
I need this!! 🤩🤩🤩
you might not neeeeed it but you'll love it
I have owned this pedal for 6 months and just love it.
What is the best setting for a 80's Chorus sound?
Hey I’m waiting for mine to arrive and am wondering the same. Depending on the 80s your talking about the channel Pedal Zone has a good vid on dream pop wash. (Cocteau like)
Just ordered Visitor, Minim and Whitecap. These 3 pedals will replace 5 or 6 pedals on my current board. I really like Strymon and Meris but OBNE makes some crazy good stuff.
Thank you Rick, that's big time
Amazing
Thanks Biz
This is really freaking cool guys.
Hey thanks Matt
I'm loving my Visitor, such a cool pedal. Really like the OBNE vids with Dan, you should definitely do some more, maybe a "Dan Meets...." feature and speak to some of the artists that use your gear?
that's a great suggestion
Great pedal, I'm going to buy one.
I recommend you just edit the video (sound wise that is) a little better as its hard to hear the guitar playing over the voice.
Other than that, great work! I already own a Dark Star and I absolutely love it.
I bought it by the way. Love it! Keep up the good work.
How do you guys think up stuff like this, amazing!!
Thank you John
the only pedal that does a phsser and a tremolo at the same time, which I want. Great review. pedals not cheap though.
It's hard to use quality components and put out " cheap" pedals.EHX ,for example, still produces original ideas, and useable formats, but in order to stay within a price point, the sound quality suffers.The Canyon would be a classic IF it were built to higher specs; I think it depends on what you've come to expect out of a pedal, sound quality wise.American labor also isn't cheap.
Just got mine! My other pedal I have your guys’ is the haunt fuzz.. time to have some diabolical fun combining the two. Anyone over at HQ tried this before and knows any good settings for the combo?
Ooh, very fun. Try this: Instrument, Haunt fuzz, Visitor, amplifier. Set the Haunt's Fuzz and Gate to max, and set the Mix at 50%, then play with different sounds on the Visitor- Tremolo/Tremolo is a fun place to start. You'll hear both the clean instrument and the heavily fuzzed sound both getting modulated by Visitor. Lots of flavors to explore there.
Please make a stereo version!
Dan any chance you can share the tuning this song is in? Been trying to figure it out for ages 😂
Aw shit I’m gonna have to redo my board 😱
you are?
Sounds rad, where can I get this in Canada?
www.moogaudio.com/ and electricmojoguitars.com/
Thanks dad
...son?
I've got to have one.
And now I've bought one. Can't wait for August 14th.
yay
Welp, I'm excited to switch out my Chemist for this. Love my Chemist, but this is more up my alley.
I’m torn between the Visitor and the Chemist. Why are you switching to the Visitor?
@@denismichelhache3525 the Chemist just didn't sound that good to me. It's very sterile and lifeless. No personality and leaves much to be desired. Could be just my rig (TVL Jazzmaster, Roland JC40) but I doubt it.
@@buffalothebison4850 thanks for the reply. The Visitor sounds like a fun pedal to play. Did you get a chance to try it?
This is undoubtedly a _very_ cool effect idea. However, when I read "multi-modulator" I was thinking (hoping) that flanging would be part of it. Tremolo/Chorus/Phaser is nice, but _Flanger_/Chorus/Phaser would be even better (IMHO).
That's understandable, thanks for taking the time to check it out
And me I actually prefer it as it is, with a tremolo. Great pedal
At first glance I thought it was just another overpriced noise maker, but you could get beautiful and unique lead and rhythm guitar sounds with this! Also, dig the vintage EV mic!
Thank you Dean. We love EV mics too
@@oldbloodnoise when I was in grade school trying to get my first band together, the hippies down the street used to loan us a couple of those mics.
I didn’t know I was gonna get visitors. But it seems one is indeed on the way 😂
Magic…
digital or analog?
Dans the man
Take my💰
we appreciate your investment in quality and creativity
I want this but it also kind of sounds like shit.
Imagine, if there was some..way, maybe, to just keep the camera on the pedal? There is LITERALLY Zero need to see some dude with a Price is right Microphone doing a "man on the street" type of interview..with an effect pedal. Bad enough that theres this mauch talking in a guitar effect video. Im speaking for myself AND those that were afraid they might hurt some feelings. (A Balloon for myself- 🎈)
thanks mauch for the input!
cheers, have two 🎈🎈
Looks like an EV 635A or something similar. It’s actually a pretty interesting microphone. They are Omnidirectional broadcast mics and fun to get creative with when recording, but I enjoyed seeing one used for its original purpose.
