It's kind of like a Furby went to a small liberal arts college and learned about John Cage and then was turned into a pedal by the Cyberman "upgrade" process from Doctor Who.
Interesting video, but his turning the knobs started to remind me of sitting in front of a TV with a child in control of the remote. I really wanted to hear how randomly it could remix just a couple of simple chords and maybe one line of vocal if you left it going for a minute.
Wo-hah! This charming lil' stompy just leapt straight up to the top five on my "must buy before I die"-list... Reminds me somewhat of my old RE-201 Space Echo: It had the long version of tape loop, so badly worn you could almost see through it! Coupled with the fact that a few heads had seen better days as well, you could some times hear snippets you'd previously played re-repeat ages after the fact! 🙂
A pedal that's based of human emotions, it's such a beautiful idea, one that just sends a flood of idea's to my head, makes me want to learn how to build experimental guitar pedals
A good mix of weird and more normal. The manual also seems really good. Great presentation. I guess you used a lot of time on first understanding, then practise and test, and then make this video. Subscribed.
Dear David, I just want to let you know that you are doing a great job and I really like the videos you make. It's really informative and helpful for young musicians like me. Keep it up and thank you for making this wonderful videos .
Beatles' Blue Jay Way came to mind a lot in this video. i love "random" effects because i'm a 60s child, but half a grand is quite some coinage to this old hippie, though. Good video. Good presentation! Thanks.
Wow can you do a review on every Chase Bliss Pedal and with various chapters exploring each dip switch setting lol !!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 This was truly incredible! What would be cool to see is what happens when you turn the collect switch on so that you can replay all this sounds that you were making through out the video so we can remember various aspects of moments from throughout your tutorial but it would be playing during the tutorial. I dont know if that makes sense, but whatever you do...dont ever stop making these videos .. por favor
This looks incredibly fun. Is there a program that simulates this process? Going through a DAW would be preferable for minimizing noise. But this opens the door for hours and hours of experimentation.
I started taking notes on the times in this video that I liked, but there are soooo many, so I threw away those notes 🙂 This pedal is really cool, but I also think this sounds cool because of what you are feeding into it. . It reminds me of 3 demo's / jam-tapes I made in the summer of 86, when I knew I had to move out of my apartment and I made some music in the weeks before I left. I used the Pearl electro-echo f-605. (Still got the thing.) Twisting the knobs when singing or playing guitar, I could sort of the sounds that you get with Habit, but different. Habit reminds me of the pearl, though. . Loved this video and played it, I think 3 or 4 times now. Thanx for doing this... for inspiring us. :-)
I received mine yesterday. I placed it after the MOOD and literally played for 5 hours not even realising. It's so addictive. The first loop I created wasn't very good. I was playing to much and when I started scanning, it was a complete mess. I felt that little would be more. So I played 3 minutes of swells through my nightsky and then just individual notes with it set in a basic daily. And then I just explored the modifiers and it blow me away. Early days yet, but with my little experience it's about patience and not over playing. What I wished the HABIT had was an indicator built in showing you the time you have played. It can be used as a standard delay but it would be wasted. This is about experimenting, playing chords and notes in the same key and seeing what it gives you. It's never the same.
I feel like this is an effect I've heard before, is there a name for this sound in the manual producing world where someone would have to implement the scanning effect by hand? Beautiful toy and video, A+
I think you'll find there's a video game OST that sounds like it used this effects pedal. Even though the game was made years ago, before it was ever created. It's called "Smile For Me". I recommend you check out at least the music.
Such an amazing pedal. I find it hard to compose with so I built an Ableton effect rack that (almost) replicates this pedal, that way I can automate to my taste.
Looks really cool but costs over 450€! There are much cheaper ways to find happy accidents such as slicing up a random loop on your DAW and experimenting with effects and/or using the FREE dBlue Glitch plugin or other plugins that randomly mangle your audio. Good luck!
I've heard that these are really sturdy. They say a habit is hard to break.
🤣
Unless you... kick it?
Yeah but they also tend to stick
@@TeaSea- Yeah, chase bliss using heroin, or these pedals, and you just waste years of your life, never really getting your money's worth.
@@michaelcarey9359 pedals are worth the cash tho
For certain genres, this would be insane to record with
You record the pedal then write a song around it.
...and for the rest of the genres it would just be insane.

Comment of 2022.
Awesome
I love seeing all the common channels we have in common professor Lanterman! Wish I lived in ATL so we could meet up
this is fucking amazing.
thank you.
@@danielpirone8028 Very kind of you to say! :)
Chase Bliss pedals are damn near musical instruments in and of themselves.
This has to be the most strange and complex pedal I've ever seen/ heard. Unforseen potential
Can't wait for the VST version. I'd buy it instantly.
Well in that case check out Empress Zoia if you haven't already that thing is bonkers!
What an incredibly clever device! I've not seen anything quite like it.
How do you think weird music was produced? The sounds you hear coming from cars? I think they all should install a Habit in modern cars.
This was really great David
Analogies*
This combined with the Generation Loss in the proper context would be amazing sounding. I can totally imagine using it to make an analog horror video
Straight onto my list of things I can't afford.
I've watched a few videos on this pedal and so far you've explained how it works the most elegantly, great vid!
Ive never seen a pedal ive wanted so much, thanks for showing how this pedal works
This has to be. one of the most fascinating pedals around. Great video, very well produced. You earned a follower today. Thanks.
Beautifully presented. Definitely on my hit list. Thank you, David.

This is crazy cool! Keep up the great content, ur channel is totally underrated
It`s not often that a very new idea comes out for these units. What a great idea! And, a fantastic breakdown video. Thanks

Great overview, which shows how musical and inspirational this pedal can be.

theres so much potential for these unique pedals, cant wait to get my hands on of these
Dear David,

Keep it up and thank you for making this wonderful videos .
Dude thank you!!!!!!! I’ve seen so many mixed reviews but this hit the nail on the head.
Excellent idea for a pedal and creative recording tool !
yo major props for incorporating a buddha box into this, i still have one and love to sample it
The dinner party analogy, yes! That's so true.
Awesome. I've been recording ambient tracks lately and this would be so incredible to play with
Beatles' Blue Jay Way came to mind a lot in this video.

The pitch shifting reminds me of Tomorrow Never Knows!

Great video, I really want a habit. How did you route the midi into the pedal by the way?
Phenomenal video man. Thank you.
So, creative. Superb! ❤️🙏
very good video! thank you for the hard work
best explanation yet of this device
"This is [approx. $500 spent on GAS] by Chase Bliss"
...
brilliant pedal, as always
Reminds me of Adventure Time's OSTs sound. So, so cool
Imagine going to your local music store and trying to tell the employee what your looking for before CB produced such a pedal lol 🤯
This looks incredibly fun. Is there a program that simulates this process? Going through a DAW would be preferable for minimizing noise. But this opens the door for hours and hours of experimentation.
Never thought I'd laugh so hard my gut hurts during a pedal review. Definitely earned my sub
wow, very nice tool, most pleasent presentation! Thank you :-)
Wow this sounded awesome and your demo you did with the vocals sounded great 👏
Like the techno band crystal castles 😃😊
Amazing pedal!
beautiful song out at the end with this device
How interesting. Not sure if it's for me but I really am intrigued by it conceptually
underrated channel
I hope they make a vst
I appreciate the detail in your videos. Actually thinking of buying one of these because of your video. :)
Wow, very Radio Lab. Brilliant pedal!
I knew it reminded me of something but couldn’t finger it
I love the look of that Helvetica field guide
I'd love to see a video game sound track made with this pedal
Cool review! I will definitely buy this thing) BTW what music is playing at the beginning?
This is a really interesting pedal. Kind of remind me of the Make Noise/Soundhack Morphagene module.
sweeeeet would love to play with this pedal!!!! might be good for creative ideation for composition
I want one of these!
This is amazing
Wicked effects unit. Wonder if I could use it with an ipad?
I'd like to see how Graham Coxon would use this pedal.
has similiar vibes to the montreal assembly- count to five . cool for textures
Wow, this sounds like a must get. 😳
what's the pink microphone used at the start? It looks crazy cool!
really cool
This would be great for LIVE performances
This is the best april fools day commercial ever✨
amazing
I just got one, and I love it! I’ll be using it when I play Terry Riley’s Minimalist masterpiece “In C” next month.
This is so cool
Verry cool!!!
experimental ambient musicians rejoice!
i can do SOME of this stuff with my current board - but this really is on another level lol
Some of my music tech professors would love this
On my list for sure.. How does one link midi to the habit or which cable is used for it ?
i have no idea whats ever happening in ur videos but i love them
Cool but expensive but cool. I would love to make a free version of this in Pure Data 😁
(almost) done! Quite basic at the moment, but it's a good place where to start.
There's a little demo on my channel
I think hainbach did something on this too…very cool pedal. I want one!
As always thanks for the vid..🙏
Yes, he did a jam with Habit + his tronichord. :)
I started taking notes on the times in this video that I liked,
but there are soooo many, so I threw away those notes 🙂

I just want to ask, what cords did you use to get it to connect to the korg?
I love their pedals, now if only I could get them in a Eurorack module, that would be great.
I'm curious as to what you are using to plug your volca keys into the habit pedal?
Vintage first-gen Buddha Machine! very nice!
I need this
Sold out at $399. Available at retail stores for $649... 😵🤯
Yeeesh
There was a used thermae at my local pawn shop for 550$ lol these things ain’t cheap
I feel like this is an effect I've heard before, is there a name for this sound in the manual producing world where someone would have to implement the scanning effect by hand? Beautiful toy and video, A+
I've heard it quite a bit in the podcast Radiolab, usually with a few different voices and effects
I see this effect in movies and shows more than music
4:15 reminds me of the old retro games like og pokemon
@@NicoMyers ah ye it is like radiolab
Whats that little speaker, it's dope.
I think you'll find there's a video game OST that sounds like it used this effects pedal. Even though the game was made years ago, before it was ever created. It's called "Smile For Me". I recommend you check out at least the music.
I was about to say 'I want one.' Then I thought about getting two so they could chat to eachother. How bizarre.
Got such massive inscryption vibes from the music from the first 2 minutes
Such an amazing pedal. I find it hard to compose with so I built an Ableton effect rack that (almost) replicates this pedal, that way I can automate to my taste.
Does anyone know what that little pink speaker is? Seems handy but I can’t find it on the internet
Oh that Pippin actor singing, coool
This device itself ist art
I Love Delays, I Love Time Traveling to Past, so I Love this :-)
I can see this being used to make a movie score soundtrack due to its versatility and abstract sounds.
This is a great video. The pedal is awesome too but I do a lot of shrooms so I don't know if would work for me.
Of course it would
Ah I got a buddha box when I was in China in 2007.. brings back great memories seeing one again
Looks really cool but costs over 450€! There are much cheaper ways to find happy accidents such as slicing up a random loop on your DAW and experimenting with effects and/or using the FREE dBlue Glitch plugin or other plugins that randomly mangle your audio. Good luck!
hnnnng look at the graphic design on that instruction booklet. so good
It's similar to effects I can get with dBlue glitch + Floaty Delay in REAPER.
Does anyone know of any music being made with this? Would love to check it out!!
William Basinski would definitely give a great use to it, I think.
These aren’t stereo, right? The ability to adjust the repeats in the stereo field would be pretty awesome
I assumed it was stereo from the number of sockets but apparently it's mono. Surprising for such an expensive niche pedal.
cool - just wondering if such a device could be turned into a plugin...
Reaper comes with a JSFX script called Avocado Glitch…
Absolutely could! Learn to program and make it yourself if you can’t find it :p
