- It's Q and A day again! Today I answer these questions:
"Tacos, Burrito's, or both?"
"Advice on quality cables, power supplies, pedal order, and making a pedalboard more efficient"
"Thoughts on the Slate Digital VRS8 modeling microphone technology?"
"Do certain pedals work better with certain tube types and pickup types?"
"What drives Wampler innovation? What new technology will change the direction of how we pursue the ultimate tone?"
"How would you improve my board?"

Awesome video as always Brian. Cheers!

Hosa is a good company they been around since 1980's or earlier same Pro Co
I use both am planning splurge switch to bpta & rattlesnake cables, my email box is flooded with offers by BTPA & Rattle Snake cable co.
Pro Co cables are decent I have about three they are hand built solder style very old company same people that make the Rat but think a change for quality is in order.
My other favorite is Spectraflex had No issues, with 10 year old standard cable but Pro Co they do have issues like cracking & split.
Hosa & Pro Co are music industry standard cable. There's many companies china, off brand are copies of both Hosa & Pro Co. These are off brand sold by musicansfriend etc.
Loving the Q and A's! WILL YOU BE MAKING A WAH OR VOLUME PEDAL?
I really respect the fact that even though you have your own pedal company, you give props to other pedal makers and use other gear.
You asked so I'll answer: I dig these Q&A's. It's always nice to see successful, yet accessible business owners. Thanks for your time, Brian. Cheers!
"Chili Relleno" MUST be the name of your next pedal!
Waited all my adult life for a Tumnus Deluxe!..... Thanks Mr & Mrs Wampler, you have made a Scotsman very happy.
Brian, I am so glad I got into electric guitar, just because it helped me find your channel!
What a down to earth guy. Gives great advice and opinions. Makes me want to buy wampler pedals!
I just wanna say it’s good to see/hear from you more. I know the whole content creation on top of being an entrepreneur isn’t easy. I appreciate your take on things. You explain things in a way that makes sense to a knuckle dragger like me. Hope you and the family and the critters are well.
Thanks for answering questions Brian, I and most likely many, appreciate you 🤘🏻
Pretty much dig everything you do. Q&A, Tech Talk, interviews, podcasts....keep up the great work!

Thanks
love Mr.Wampler....vids are so entertaining, educational, and low-key...(and, "anything" Mexican to the 1st question...)...
I like these type of videos, knowledge is always good
I dig these Q&A's and I'm letting you know
I always have questions, and you have legit answers. Poifect!
Totally dig these q&a videos. As every other video from you
I like the q&a. Keep 's coming Brian.
hi brian I'm a professional country entertainer with a degree in electronics I find your pedals the best ive heard because as I listen to them I notice the signals do not degrade in your pedals like they do in most other brands. out of respect of other products I wont mention any names but I think you know what I'm saying. as far as I'm concerned if you want a pristine sound with quality wampler is far above most other brands..im building a new pedal board right now for my show and wampler will be all over my board.LOL love the videos also; Dan The Nashville Performer..
Love your videos! can't wait to get my hands on a Tumnus Deluxe!
GREAT Video as usual. Keep up the good work.
Dig the Q&A. Thank you. Very informative
Where was I, and why did it take me until today, 2023, to discover your channel? You're awesome! 🙏
Ok i have to admit, i wasn't much into guitar for a long time. Just revived my spark with a new guitar this summer 😊
This was great. I didn't ask any questions, but I had some answered! Awesome video! 👍
Thanks man. Great advice.
Thanks WampCat. Lol
Your crushing it with your videos, please don't change anything about them.
*You're such a nice guy. I feel warm watching your videos.*
no homo
Diggin all your vids Brian! Great attitude = great pedals!
80's guitar tones are my favorite all around. Thanks Brian! Still loving the Wampler 57' tweed, fantastic pedal.
Tones like The Fixx?
The Euphoria saved my life, thanks for that and all you guys do!
I love your videos, very informative.
Always love your unpretentious persona. You're a friend not just a youtube presenter. I really appreciate that ! Thanks!
Old? Not so much, Brian. Take it from a 59 year old headbanger who wishes he could remember 43. ;-)
Love these videos dude, thank you and keep it up!
Man this is great! So informative, awesome channel!
Yep! Filters, modulation (amplitude, phase, & frequency) BEFORE dirt!
Also agree with you on pickups-- I definitely prefer single coils into a Big Muff Pi.
You arent old, dude . . . I can remember BEFORE guitar tuners, waaay back, when there was ONLY MXR ! . . . . I'm kinda new here dude, but I really like your informed information and your general attitude . . thanks very much for your time and efforts
Love it. Zip ties my friend. That's the best comment I've heard in awhile.
Thanks for your time!
Love these videos should be longer.
Eyyy! perfect timing. this video just popped up as i'm about to wire/set up my board XD
Great video
This is the last channel I would ever expect a JonTron cameo on.
Dude, I have (and still use) am ADA-MP1 "Classic." Fantastic sounding piece of gear! It can sound dated in the drive sound, but issuing it as a clean pedal platform works great for modern tones.
That's a fun video. Thanks!
I'm not a guitar geek by any stretch of the imagination (and I'm certainly not a good guitarist), but I have to say these videos are ace. I always have to watch.
You just earned my respect for giving a shout-out for Tex-Mex. The double-L is said like an English "Y" in Mexican Spanish, so, "rey-YEN-ose" for Tex-Mex; if you say it as "LY" (thus, "rey-LYEN-ose"), that's closer to Castilian Spanish. If you want to have something amazing, try carne guisada or barbacoa. The latter dates to pre-Columbian times, and is truly "made in America." Thanks for the great advice on pedal order, too! :)
i have tried some of your pedals, but i don't own any. i own a lot of high end pedals, but somehow i always chose another brand. i do however love your videos, very informative and educational. i might have to go back and look at some of your pedals again and get some. you deserve a look just based on how helpful your videos are. thank you.
Thanks I am glad that you enjoy them 😊
Q&A's? I LIKE IT!!!
I think you're a great guy Brian keep up the good work 👌⚡👌
You made it a great day. Thanks
For your use of JonTron youve earned my like, sir!
Those premium Hosa cables are great.
I'm diggin it!
Wow!!! Awesome, thanks Wampler \m/
I make my own pedal cables Mogami 2319 , it's a thin cable and works great for getting into tight spots . I got this advise from Bob Bradshaw { pedalboard guru } . I love my Wampler " dual fusion " and my Keeley " Dyno MY Roto " tri chorus ......
I miss my ADA MP1 preamps, I have them still but I need to overhaul the capacitors and restore them. But, I have found pedals that along with my Boss MS-3 that give me similar results. Plus, I have my Mesa Nomad 100/Two Notes Torpedo Captor 8 setup that I really love now.
Hi Brian! Thanks for doing everything you do! In a previous video, you mentioned that you make your own enclosures, is there any possibility of making these available for DIY guys?
Speaking of the Friedman amps one day I'll own a Friedman Phil X amp!!! I only use one channel and roll my volume down for "Clean tones" Also thinking about trying the Wampler Tape Echo or Delay how ever its worded. Looks to be a Killer Echo Machine!!! Thanks Brian. I can't wait to hear a Wampler Tape Echo into my Dirty Channel. Love the dirty Echo noise Kinda Hendrix tones. Lol
Q and A videos = Good.
I might just have to buy a Wampler pedal because you are such a nice guy.
Love the videos :) I wouldn't use zip ties for cable management on a pedal board, I'd use a roll of double sided velcro. I work in IT and I use it all the time for cable management, much easier when you come to break things down later. Have you ever thought of doing pedal kits, in the same way that people do kit guitars?
6 years later, I’m watching again🎉
I should probably create an updated version of this!
You can babble all you want. It's still entertaining! lol
I had an ADA MP-1! I was kind of seduced by the idea of being able to radically change tones and FX (with additional Digitech FX processor) to anything I wanted by stepping on one button. The reality was that the workflow of spending a lot of time diving into the settings on a little LED display and setting up everything ahead of time in a very meticulous fashion, then just going to the gig and stepping on the controller buttons without much ability to tweak on the fly just wasn't my thing. I ditched it after a couple of years and went minimalist (Strat->Tube Works Real Tube ->Dual Showman). These days I've got an Egnater Rebel 30 combo and use more pedals (including the FANTASTIC Tumnus!) to shape my tone. But in a pinch I can still do a show with just a guitar, single channel amp and good overdrive pedal.
LOL... thanks Brian... always great
love your posts :) Very informative. How about running a video on using pedals in front of a modelling amp (obviously a non tube amp)? For example the Marshall Code 100, Vox VT100 etc. While the Code comes with all its presets, sometimes it's just nice to stomp on a box. I'm just curious on your opinion. While personally I am biased toward the Marshall Code 100 combo, the presets are very customisable, but I still have a bank of effects I like to use in front of and via the effects loop of the amplifier.
Hosa is great. I also would suggest George L's. I have used them for at least 15 years -with no issues at all.
I have 4 of your pedals> love all of them! Please make a looper that doesn't suck in one way or another (with quiet switches), and that is "reliable" to use in a live setting, real RELIABLE!!!
Thanks, Dave
I dig them !
I would love to see y’all make a one stop Power supply. Take a massive amount of power and clean it up for any pedals (I have pedals that need 500ma) and even a separate few outlets for amps and things like a power supply. Maybe even a small backup system inside it for playing on the go for half an hour or something
Thank you for the Q&A. How much importance do you place on having a switching system like a Voodoo Lab for reducing noise and preventing alterations to your tone from bypassed pedals?
Been using hosa on my board(s) for about 10 years. Love them. No problems yet. Pro co instrument cables for most part of 30 years I think. Need co. For speaker cables now. Any suggestions?
Brian This video is so fucking good! The content is amazing the style of the video is amazing! Thanks for adding value to our life! Also and making damn good pedals :-)
Iv had all hosa cables since 2008 , still use most of em all the time . So wat u said ,, yeah .
Yes, Brian, you do need to get some Rattlesnake cables! They are great, and Hank has excellent customer service.
Great video and great pedals. I have a Tumnus (not the deluxe), Sovereign and a tube screamer. Can you recommend the order I place them. I am using a BOSS MS3 4CM into a MESA BOOGIE JP2C. I dont stack the pedals. I generally use them based on the type of overdrive I'm going for depending on the song. I play everything from Tom Petty to Metallica. So naturally I'll use the amps distortion for the heavy tones and the pedals for more classic rock tunes. I know there are no specific rules, I kinda just want your opinion. Thanks and keep making the videos man. They are very insightful and your topics are practical.
Pedal hoarder? It's becoming a real thing for me. I always say, "After this I'm done for a year or two". Then I buy another.
I'm just here for the tacos.
And to hear Brian try to pronounce "chili rellenos."
Your true gentleman and businessman thanks once again for all your help and support 😊👍🙏❤️
Oooh, now I'm intrigued by the mystery amp.
it was an 'eye-opener' ('ear-opener'?) to hear your quick summation on your preferences in 'pedal chain order'. will have to try some of these ideas out...
I dig em
Finally! I’ve got a Tumnus mini.
What’s your thought on using the exchanger that mimics pickups? It changes a single coil to humbucker and vice versa supposedly and would help with pedals that like one pickup over the other!
good one thanks
