  • What's the price of infinite sustain? These pedals from Gamechanger Audio and Electro-Harmonix both offer the desired effect, but is one's extra tricks worth the expense in the here-and-now? In the first episode of Reverb's #HiLoPass series, we take a closer look: bit.ly/HiLoPass-1
    Find a Gamechanger Plus: bit.ly/3eYbEbG
    Find an EHX Freeze: bit.ly/3n4osSl

    I've had the Freeze for around 3 months, couldn't be happier. It's just so one-of-a-kind, and EHX quality to reliably bring the action! Perfect for running mics & keyboards thru, also

    Hey, remember another great option: Zcat Hold Reverb, good sounding, easy to use, silent soft switch, still on my pedalboard. Now it's time to take a look to the 2022 TC Electronic Infinite Sample Sustainer!

    I have the GC Plus. It took me a while to get it. The key moment was the use of the effects loop which I use with an octave pedal and reverb - sometimes a tremolo in there too. It effectively creates a lush synth pad sound. Love it now.

    Really enjoy this cat's totally unpretentious and straightforward manner. Thank you.

    I had the freeze, tried the Freqout, then bought one of the first Plus pedals to come out. It definitely takes a bit of practice to get the timing but once you do it sounds very musical and somehow less like an effect you can add vibrato to a bit for example and it will sustain the vibrato as well.

    Excellent review - thanks. I use the Freeze. It’s become an integral part of my sound.

    I prefer the sound of the Freeze, I think.

    I enjoyed this contact and hope that you guys make more like this.

    Really helpful video. I have the Freeze and really like it; your video has made me appreciate it even more. Thank you!

    Love this idea for the series! I'm looking forward to the next one. I want to hear your thoughts on some distortion categories.

    The Plus has an amazing side gig: the effects loop controlled by easing-in the pedal. Infinite possibilities.

    I have both, love them both, but go with the Plus

    This video is arguably immediately out of date. Yesterday, TC released/launched their new 'Infinite' pedal. So there's a new affordable alternative in this pedal genre on the block! It has more features and functions than the EHX Freeze.

    Obne sunlight is fun for sustain too. I love my freeze along with it though.

    I've been wondering about both of these so this video is perfect, and great idea for a series too. I also appreciate the comments; curious to check out the OBNE Sunlight and EHH Superego as well. Thanks all.

    I have both pedals. The plus is amazing when you use the fx out loop. I put in an electro harmonix c9. It makes the plus come alive. It took me a while to get the plus worked out like I like it. Since the pedal has two levels of pressure it takes some getting used to as well. But after some time it has become something that I feel is very expressive and I love playing with it.
