Thx! Just getting started with pedals, so this info will come in handy down the road.

[@MikeLute]

Educational and concise video, always asked myself why pedal loopers are important, now O know it. Hope there will be more videos with both of you!

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Thanks man! Yes, there will be more. G is welcome anytime! //Andy

[@onzkicg]

lol 😂 I just finished spending 2hrs to diy my Mogami patch cables, I made them as short as possible to ensure no waste when pedals get connected. If I saw this vid I would have at least give it 20-25cm more instead of 10 haha

[@PhilMoseleyMusic]

Big fan of pedal switchers! I use the Boss ES-8, it's great. The only thing I would change about it is the addition of scribble scripts - would be quite useful. Still the best one for my purposes though! Great video guys!

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

ES -8 is a classic ! :) Thank you man! // Guillaume

I’ve used a switcher for 2 or 3 years because singing & Tap dancing got to be a royal pain in the ass. I’m actually upgrading mine to an ES-8 because it has independent “stomp box” and “preset” modes so I’m not wasting a preset on a patch when it’s one effect. Hi G!!! -Aaron

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

I really need to pickup a switcher. So many to choose from but I will get there! //Andy

[@danielhapunkt3074]

Das einzige was mich bei meinem Switcher nervt ist, dass ich die trigger nicht nutzen kann, da mein peavey (us-variante) den anders poligen Stecker besitzt. Könntet ihr nicht irgendeine a/b Box bauen die vom amerikanischen stecker auf klinke geht?😞

[@a.ayaz41]

How i use the amps' fx loop for delay and reverb ?

[@StudioChimiel]

Never knew it was super easy.

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Barely an inconvenience //Andy

[@doomerius1300]

Number 2 is pretty important

[@PooNinja]

That unit far surpasses by a/b switch (only used to swap guitars)switch and its programmable like my coffee maker :) "Great job!" was that the campire?

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Hahaha this switcher actually makes coffee as well ! And the super enthusiastic "Great Job" was from our very own Juri, Filmmaker and Andy's best friend. // Guillaume

[@PooNinja]

juri is the campire as you never see his reflection :)

[@eduardocosta5793]

Can you please show us how to setup from scratch a more affordable version? Thanks

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Thanks for watching and yes, that would be a great video, we'll try to make that happen :)! // Guillaume

[@BetterThanMeOfCourse]

@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses I would really love this because it's kinda confusing

[@strat0871]

Interesting. I didn't know how it works, thanks.

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Thanks! We barely scratch the surface of the how... we just wanted to cover the why.

[@strat0871]

@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses Sorry, right, that's what I meant: what is it for..

[@charlesmagno28]

why is it better than lets say BOSS multi when you can just set the sounds?

[@unfcknblvbl]

Wait, did I see two #4 title cards?

[@StudioChimiel]

Oops

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

You saw nothing.... (Damn) //Andy

[@andreamusik]

I look yours Videos on, but it is not good for people the come from germany because I dont understand the message from this Video when the language is in English and not in German. It gives Dolmetscher - Übersetzer for the Germany Language ? Deutscher Text: Ich schaue gerne eure Videos an, aber ich finde es schade für die Deutschen die kein Englisch gut verstehen weil man eure Texte kaum versteht was ihr da so sagt ? :-/ Könnt ihr net einen Übersetzer mit ins Video mit ein beziehen ? So das auch die Deutschen eure Videos verstehen wenn es um die Erklärung der Technik geht ???
