This was one of the first guitar pedals I’ve ever bought. After touring with it, recording an album with it, passing all sorts of instruments through it (including a trumpet and a Casio SK-1, among others), and lord knows what else, I can definitively say that I still don’t have a clue how to use this pedal in any practical application.
so it takes your guitar signal, and adds in one octave below and one octave above in to it? So in other words, it is like if your signal got split in 3: one was clean, one was through an octave up effect, and one was through an octave down effect, and they got added together back into one signal at the end?
OH please. What on earth is one's notion of Boutique? Boss is all fine and good for ones first venture into pedal land but competing with high end lines, come on...Little Boss pedals are just not that great and they have B grade buffers in and out. Cascading a chain of little Boss makes for a cascade of way too many low end buffers.
What if you want to use it in stereo with 3 other stereo pedals. Can you use the exp input as a 2nd input or is it only good for expression pedal? I need two inputs and 2 outputs. Please help.
same reason youre in the store always "trying things out", youre too cheap to buy anything, so the only practice you get is messing around with other peoples stuff
Will this pedal do the digitech whammy octave you sound, as used by the white stripes and some Radiohead songs? I only want that sound and don’t want the huge whammy pedal.
Does Boss have a "best " pedal??? Personally I can't consider any Boss any more unless it is at least Waza div. Love my Waza Air phones but don't have anything else.
dont knock it until you've heard someone who can actual put this to full good use this guys demo sucks i agree but just go listen to some others using one. you might just change your mind and it has some nice harmonix in it if u use it right. this guy on here is just using it for silly alien sounds which no one would use in a song .the sounds he used are ok only if u was planning to make an alien movie but even for that it still sounds crap i think its just his playing

Its a pretty good chorus!
@@gooseabuseI agree it has a great chorus
😂😂😂
HAHAHAHAHA
Why do all Boss videos look like they were filmed in the 80s?
lol
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Haha. Because their engineering dept is filled with old 80s people. 😂
“BOSS IS THE BEST” (Josh Scott)
It’s the wigs.
actually not only the best pedal from boss but the best pedal in the world
So radical. Super rad. I like BOSS a lot, but corporate types have no business producing commercials.
3 voice harmony, sound of the gods.
man oh man, those are some radical new sounds!
This advertisment looks like coming from the 80s
Juan Eduardo Marquesini
You're use of English looks like its coming from 2nd grade common core.
That alien sound... LOL
Haha that voice! "This summer in all theatres.."
Sold.This is Brian May in a stomp box.
Owen Wilson!
This is a very good pedal if you want to recreate a dual guitar sound... its freking awesome

@@-jank-willson That's an octave pedal. No. this one is a Harmonist. It adds specific intervals like thirds, sixths or fifths as far as I know.
@@crigonalgaming1258 so it adds in extra notes that you didn't actually play?
@@-jank-willson yes. But definitely not an octave. That's a different technology
@@crigonalgaming1258 i thought this pedal had both in it? or is that the next generation that combined the harmonist and that other pedal?
depending on which mode you use, it has to be plugged into a completely different location into the chain.
I needed this comment. Thank you.
Yeah me2 4sure
I used it to recreate Tom morellos solo on “Like a Stone” worked great
I love Boss pedals
*radical*
No boutique pedals comes close to boss pedals! Boss is the Toyota of guitar effects, theyre so durable up to this day!

Boss Rocks
2 voice harmony sounds good.

None of the riffs really went with the pedals efx. Dime bag used it well back in the 90’s with the expression pedal hooked to it .
can it be used as a plain pitch shifter ? an octave higher ? without blend ? sorry, noob here.
rod stewart has aged poorly
Why didn't my harmonies sound like that when i tried this pedal out in my local guitar store?
same reason youre in the store always "trying things out", youre too cheap to buy anything, so the only practice you get is messing around with other peoples stuff
@@chrise.3814 makes sense
Will this pedal do the digitech whammy octave you sound, as used by the white stripes and some Radiohead songs? I only want that sound and don’t want the huge whammy pedal.
Can this pedal do the harmony guitar lick at the end of hotel California?
someone knows if this pedal could harmonize brass section? with a microphone conected?
WOW SOUND GOOD
Is there a pedal which tunes all 6 strings from DGCFAD tuned guitar to EADGBE, or Standard C and so on?
Don't know but the Gibson G-Force Auto-Tune does that and much more.....
Radical
We tune 1/2 step down (Eb),,,,
Will it still follow the notes properly???
why not a clear harmony demo instead of your all noisy distortion. better demo with clean guitar mode in different interval harmony .
Sorry, this is one of Boss's worst pedals ever... The Pitchfork+ blows it away...
Does Boss have a "best " pedal??? Personally I can't consider any Boss any more unless it is at least Waza div. Love my Waza Air phones but don't have anything else.
But does it Tom Morello and_or Dimebag Darrell like the Whammy?
Fuck my quintessence, I’m getting this!
Put some thought into the sounds Roland. Hire Tom Schultz.
does it work like an octave pedal?
Yes
yes and no
Effect loop or front of amp?
does it do a simple signal + octave down?
Yes
Do I put this pedal before or after my overdrive pedals?
Before
HI all, does anyone knows if it works also for instruments with two strings (like bouzouki)?
Its looks like its polyphonic, so yes.
@@nram3930 Thanks a lot 👍
Are you owen wilson?
can it do 5th harmonies instead of 3rds?
it can do any harmony
Tubular!
hi, actually where put the harmonist pedal on pedalboard, Thanks.
Id say after octave and drives
I m making a board just of them
into the front and into the back, and into the middle, you have to keep replugging it all the time.
gratitude to Japanese.
Because thats the last decade rhat had any music worth learning or playing.

I have one and it's not as good as they try to make it sound.
Exactly 👎
Say radical one more time…
Sounds like crapp
Now that's a pedal!! Something for us serious players who DO NOT like or use distortion. Us who actually know how to make chords. Yeah us!!!
