- Pedals and Effects has nothing but love for Red Panda, we've featured just about every pedal they've put out! Kurt and the crew in Detroit are on the cutting edge and we always make a point to stop by when we're passing through on tour. So when we caught wind of something new brewing in the lab, we were super curious and we knew that whatever it was, it would be great. That time is now, and the next great Red Panda effects pedal is the sampling and time warping, Tensor.
This video was shot and edited by Scott Ward for Vato Negro Productions.

For about 3 or 4 months every 2 years I unhealthily obsess over effects pedal..almost to the point of looking for support groups on pedal addiction. I spend about 2 grand and use each effect for maybe 2 hours at best.
That doesn't sound like it has anything to do with pedals, and more with spending money on shopping. No doubt i could be wrong, but it (kinda') doesn't seem healthy to me --if this isn't an extreme exaggeration about only using ALL new pedals for only two hours.;
Nick Reinhart talking about crazy ass pedals is all I need in my life
Hambloko food and water?
You into being kicked in the teeth, too? ...damn, dude... Sigh.
Y'all completely sold me on this pedal. Watched this demo and drove to my local shop immediately. Have played it in rehearsals and it's easily my new favorite pedal. Thank you!
man i miss juan and his videos!
make a band with bob on drums, juan on bass, and nick on guitar, and you all have tensors.
The Three Tensors
Red Panda is easily one of the most underrated companies out there!
The best demo of this pedal honestly. I MUST AQUIRE THIS SOUND DEVICE
I love how straightforward this video is for a pretty complex pedal. Well done.
I was really confused by this pedal and a bit eh on it, but then Nick demoed it, and now I get it.
Coming from Detroit, I'm glad to see a company like this making bomb pedals
Never thought I'd learn something about the automotive industry from a pedals and effects vid. Ahead of the curve like always. Sick pedal sick video
Got mine a few weeks ago, just barely scratching the surface of it. Really great stuff. Makes me want everything that they produce!
Bro red panda is definitely my new favorite pedal company.. i have the context reverb and is awesome and I just ordered this one.
How do you like it?
@@vernal6944 i love it.. very versatile pedal.
need to try this on my bass clarinet, i hope my local store will stock them.
you play bass clarinet?
You play bass clarinet, you win.
I told this woman I was dating that I played bass clarinet. Turns out, she did too. Now we're married.
Jep Hep yeah with effects 🤪🤪🤪🤪
WatchSanFrancisco thanks. I’ll do a victory lap ❤️❤️
please explain why the pedal cannot hear the future.
He said in the video that updates will come out in the future... pay attention dude
Just messing w you to be clear
Ivan Liptak because it hasn't happened yet obviously
Lousy casuality
Drink a full 8 oz. cup of Cuban Coffee and trust me, you'll hear & see the future. For about 35 minutes...
Still one of the best things ever. I run two of them. One in the chain to use on it's own and another tha I run in the FX loop on one of my delay pedals to do pitch shifted repeats, incredible reverse delays and time stretching sounds.
That sounds so disgustingly wonderful
Jeeeze. You must be rich.
The tensor is the coolest pedal ever. It's been my all time fabourtie since I bought it. All of red panda's pedals are amazing (haven't tried the radius yet), but the rest of the lineup, especially the v2's, are hands down the best at what they do. I especially love the bit map and raster.
Oh man I'm so glad you chose Neil and Jack and Me to demonstrate the Crimson-iness.
Where are people placing the Tensor in their pedal/signal chain? The possibilities seem endless!
depends on the project! it’s great to capture a loop, and put it in front of other effects when experimenting in the studio, but it’s closer to the end of the chain when I use it live with my band, so that I can turn my drives on/off without affecting the loop. the possibilities ARE endless
The Tensor, aka the "Replacer" - good one Juan!
I was floored when I saw this on another video so I bout the pedal. I’m getting Friday. Can’t wait to mess with it.
Mr. Reinhart in his zone of pure imagination. Great video guys.
I go to bed thinking about fx pedals everynight, too.
Seems like a more fully featured and well thought out Montreal assembly count to five.
This pedal stops time and is amazing.
the raster is one of my favorites. this is great too
Thank goodness I saw this within the return period of the Bass Whammy I just picked up!
Lol just realized Nick printed out the whole manual and didn’t staple it
I'm sure BATTLES are going to buy a bunch of Tensors.
deloreanized Ian Williams is an Albeton god and he no longer needs pedals like us meer mortals
Thought you said Beatles at first. Lol
I’ve been really intrigued by this since I first saw it on an artists board during a NAMM interview. Now that I’ve heard Juan’s thoughts on it I am really excited. For years I’ve wanted to score a Digitech 20/20 Multiplay and if it can also replace that (and then some) sign me up.
The design they use on cars is similar to the dazzle camouflage they used to use on battleships before the days of widespread radar. The idea was to make it difficult to judge the size, shape, and direction of a ship when viewed through a periscope. It does basically the same thing on cars; makes it hard to judge shapes and proportions.
I miss you guys so much !
Amazing video... I also had never heard a bit commander on a fretless bass before, and holy shit that's awesome
Had to like the video before even watching it just because I’ve been waiting for this for so long!
looks amazing for sure. did anyone else think of the Vox DL-1 at all? It has that same expression pedal situation controlling pitch/reverse/speed/time function going on. can't wait to try one of these though!
I'm doing a reverse-Dylan and going acoustic. I'm selling all of my pedals except for a tuner and a compressor for when I want to use single coils. So now, I rely on this channel A LOT more to get my fix. Keep on keepin' on boys! :)
Love the creativity of this pedal, but I would find it completely useless in a live setting. Thanks for the great videos!
That opener for Juan was genius around 28:50ish
Gnarly lick
For a split second at 23:09 you nailed the Black Keys tone from Lonely Boy.
The TC Ditto X4 looper has a tape stop and start feature
and will break down immediately upon paying for it.
great explanation of this totally coogot pedal guys, thx. I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't actually play Row Row Row your Boat using that effect however, that would have been boffo. I'm doing it here however, so thx for the inspiration :) Yah, the perfect ending would have been for the three of you to play the funkiest, weirdest, trippiest version of row your boat ever. Too late though, i'm doing it now and i'll sell it back to ya'll for youtube credits. PS..appreciate your mention of Fripp and Belew, two of my fav innovative and original guitarists of the 20th century. You are, by the way, Nick, one of my favourite guitarists of the 21st century. Did you also do a run down of the particle Pedal by same company? I'll look for it in your stream, thx again.
Best 40 min instructional video of *all time*. Finally got mine! ^.^
Nick could you do an episode of your top ten favorite momentary latch pedals??????
If you guys want to check out the Montreal Assembly Count to 5 I have one that you can borrow
the neal and jack and me part was rad as fuck
Looks like the red panda tensor time warped that dudes jeans.
Time to sell my whammy, dd5, dd6 and dd7 and get this thing and an expression pedal haha
Obradoom that's a lotta digital delay
"If I was gonna do it like a normal person-"
Proceeds to play some crazy shit. Seriously though, thanks for taking the time. This is far and away the best video on this pedal, so clear exactly what you can get out of it and how to do it- "Does that make sense?" Totally.
OK, 6:00 - you're talking about dazzle camouflage. Used on warships!
28:46 Why is that so funny lmao
"jejejeje, it's Juan back up in this"
*doot*
Hello from Greece! Thank you for the video; can I overdub differently effected sounds from the pedal itself? For example, a reversed layer on top of a pitched down one, etc? Tensor is like an evolution of Particle, isn't it? Best wishes for a creative and smoother 2021!
9:00 is about when the music starts MNEYUUUUHH MY TIME IS SPECIAL
The master presenting the pedal
i’m gonna throw this thing in the effects loop of my big dumb delay and dissolve my idiot brain to dust
GREAT PEDAL ... FANTASTIC DEMO VIDEO. very good Work..RESPECT DUDE ;)
I was waiting for this!
Proper radio rental. I was doing so well. Nothing since buying the Octatrack in Dec .. except the bored brain patchbay I suppose ..ah well, too late, it's already on it's way. Going to be wonderful.
23:23 best thing ive seen all day lol
OK I have just watched 7mn of you guys talking and already want to buy one without watching the demo. :D
Fuck!! I need to find 400€ now...
Juan, have you ever tried any 30hz cabs? What do you think of them if you have?
good lord this thing is awesome
... at 24:00 a master's lesson on how-to get QOTSA "If I had a tail" sound of their starting loop...
yeah what Juan said at the end
Is this thing a Whammy killer, with pitch function/expression?
Probably no.
Awesome!
yep
Hell yeah Ikes Quarter!! Super Critt!!
Great
great review
I miss you guys! I guess some of you tied to corp? Understandable, but this unfiltered and honest review with depth greatly missed!
Sounds incredible. Awesome review, almost impossible to get Red Panda in the UK though
Matt Knight places like Thomann stock them, should just pay EU shipping
you can get it in guitar fx direct
Now that we know what acid sounds like. What next Red Panda?
DMT
Skip to 7:52 for the layout explanation and some sounds
No
What kind of expression pedal do you use?
whats the guy talking at 6:50 ish? . . its not like an-released ferrari! . . all i see is a solid grey pedal! . . i still want one!
this was one of the kosmic pedal moments :-)
I like Red Panda.
What did muller find?
Juan's face at the end made the whole video
So does the planet stop rotating if a Tensor is hooked up to a Mood?
Melt Banana in a box!

When you say on tour with Juliette Lewis, do you mean your band was on tour with hers, or were you in her band? just curious, very cool either way, i've always dug her vibe.
Shark Alchemy Juan played bass in Juliette‘s band on tour.
hey thanks. i got to check that out.
Is that Nick guy always so oddly confrontational?
Yep.
Which song were you playing at 29:10?
26:55 see nick play neal and jack and me
The use with the electric drums reminds a bit of Chris Cutler. He uses mostly acoustic drums mic'ed up and fed through various effects include a Digitech Space Station he uses pretty heavily. czcams.com/video/L8dCK3-EAtw/video.html for example. He has some details about his setup at www.ccutler.com/ccutler/electrifiedKit.shtml
owwwww gosh dammmm !!!!! stereo 3kw/eq 150w / 4 dual 15 cabs - volume on 42 during intro~~~~~~~~~~~am i programmed now or something LOL- digital dial up...
Giddy up giddy up giddy up 32:33
I’m wheels! I’m moving wheels, moving wheels
Around the 23 minute mark, some bad ass fucked up glitchy guitar 🤘🤘
The boss harmonist ps 6 has a tape stop reverse thing
Nels Cline got effects all over the table for what this single pedal does.
the 16 second delay has a half speed switch and unless I'm not aware of the features the tensor doesn't have that long of a record time. but with it being update friendly with USB they could over time make this a replacement for a vintage 16 second delay. they should reach out to him to either update this to do that or for a pedal that does. I have a multiplay and a count to 5 on my table rn. I'm definitely getting one of these
also that half speed switch and pitch modulation is also always recorded on a 16 second delay. so you can record your manipulations into the loop.
Why is this thing not stereo :'(
2 years later....I got an idea for ya. Run it into a stereo reverb and listen to your Red Panda flip and stretch in hyperspace and turn into a pink unicorn. 🐼 💫🦄
@@vernal6944 my frustration mainly stems from using stereo keyboards and synthesizers with guitar pedals. Taking for example a piano patch and collapsing it to mono creates all kinds of comb-filtering issues. And even if the piano patch is maybe not the most likely sound to use with a Red Panda, you will probably play it sometime during the set and even with the Red Panda (or any other pedal with mono inputs) disengaged, you would literaly have to re-patch your setup mid-set to get stereo.
@@ZakiWasik Aaaaa.....I see. Stereo into mono never works. Agreed. What could you do.... hmmmm. I would ask if you have a send and return but I know from my experience with my stereo effects on my amp if I put a mono pedal in the loop it will destroy the stereo sound before it so that wouldn't work either really I don't think. Is there any way that you could just go ahead and run any sounds you may run into the red panda as mono initially? And then that into a stereo Reverb or whatever? Then when you want stereo for everything else you just switch back to stereo and cut the panda out of the chain (EHX TRI PARALLEL MIXER perhaps)? But I'm guessing that's unrealistic especially live. But... with a tri parallel mixer, mayby not. All you would have to do is play your piano in mono for a song and run that through the try parallel mixer to the red panda, and when you go on to the next song that you want (in stereo keys, piano, etc...) you just switch your keyboard back to stereo and cut out the red panda with the tri parallel . Other than that I can't really think of anything. I agree though, the red panda should be in stereo and would actually benefit me a lot more that way also. Who knows, maybe one of the developers will read this ne day. One can dream anyways I guess.
Where can we get your notes from Kurt on the Tensor? Thanks
15:50 "A normal person"
I get it, you want to talk about the pedal, but don’t mock people watching. I didn’t finish this video.
Simply demonstrate the pedal...
Yo guys what’s a good pedal to get a 12/8 string bass sound ??
Was just about to purchase this then I find out it can’t hear the future… w.t.f
montreal assembly count to five pedal is very similar i wonder wich came first
