Taste Testing $50 Pedals from SONICAKE - Warped Dimension - Levitate - Tone Group - Afford-a-board

[@rebelcat420]

Thank you for testing with an actual clean tone. Too many other KZbin demos have a tone as crunch as AC/DC, and call it clean. As such, you really don’t hear the character of the pedal they are demoing. With your videos, what you hear is what you can expect to get. Keep up the great work!

[@markpetten9777]

No one in their right mind will grow tired of the two princetons. It's as iconic as wiggle stick now.

[@TheChristafershawn]

It's confirmed then, I'm out of my mind.

[@markpetten9777]

@@TheChristafershawn oops sorry. My bad

[@michaelbelman1064]

Or "Das wigglesticken" as HP42 referred to it. Wigglestick is international, nay, universal at this point ❤

[@dnamusicchallenge5995]

Yes, and checking out gears from UH-BAE.

[@Superjet113]

Yes, they've grown on me!

[@NutsTesticles]

Never ever stop the two princes bit. It is tooooooo good, the longer it goes on while you loudly ponder something inane is a genuinely hilarious skit.

[@woogermon9215]

"just gonna let it run a bit this time" I HAD NEVER HEARD THE SECOND SECTION and i elect it should last at least 30 seconds EVERY video

[@fuckgoogle8661]

I was curious about these. Never stop the afford a board. We all no know or can find out about the others but this stuff for lesser known things that can be pretty good is great.

[@ChadReaser]

The Two Princes is a solid bit! These Afford-a-board vids are insightful and the advice is golden.

[@foxtonstreet]

That warped dimension pedal is awesome, and I don't usually like modulation effects much.

[@thedoyleharcavy]

Man I love the sonicake mini pedals, cool to see this new series

[@sublimingmule6356]

Unfortunately I don't have a whole lot of time right now, but I saw you guys were actively doing something with pedals, and I gotta say, these tremolo are fantastic, especially with whichever dirt pedal you've got going on! Greetings from Wisconsin! Much love for what you do!

[@brucelittle3958]

Hair looks good! Can't beat the price for the Warped Dimension, 4 pedals in one, and it sounds good! Thanks for the demo!

[@Wildmutationblu]

I only tooned in to check you were still using the Two Princes jingle. Well done sir!

[@michaelogden5093]

On my end, the neon pink looks like Dream-sickle Orange. I do like it.

[@PolskiAmbient]

Nice review! DEL-REV pedal is cool! Just bought it :D All the best !

[@murph1017]

Two Princetons for life! If you take it away, we riot! Loved how much we got today. This might be the longest two princeton jingle I've heard yet. It was glorious.

[@bulletsforteeth5029]

Delay's haven't changed much over the years, I acquired a Levitate and a Sonic Cake mini Reverb/Delay, and played them next to my Boss DD-20 Giga Delay and it does the delay thing well, albeit the Boss is more versatile, but the reverb really makes the Levitate more interesting. It's a nice to have, I can kick off the Boss and kick on the Levitate, it depends on what you're doing on your set up. So if you're on a budget you can't go wrong with the Levitate or the mini Reverb/Delay, can't speak on the other pedals though, I do use a Sonicwood on my acoustic rig and feel no need to upgrade from that, so I definitely recommend Sonicake as a reputable brand that is producing some great budget offerings.

[@dogsbodyish8403]

Yet another great demo - thanks!

[@60CycleHumcast]

My pleasure!

[@elizabethholloway3244]

Wow! Thank you for exploring these with such helpful explanations. That delicious left brain stuff. Big help. - 💗

[@bernardopinto17]

great video really liked it, a great guy with a great guitar playing and this series seems cool. Just bought the levitate seems like a great pedal, maybe I'll get the others. +1 sub

[@OutstandingBill1]

I eee I, will ALWAYS love the two Princetons gag

[@Grizzlybooey]

Just the Right Length on the Princeton Intro ......Chefs Kiss

[@TheChristafershawn]

That Surfliner looks really cool. Can't wait until they are available and I make my impulse 3am purchase. It's bound to happen.

[@allyourbasearebelongtous2191]

I've got the Levitate... love that thing. I really like how they put a wet knob and a dry knob on the Delay side. I do wish however that the Delay was louder. That's the only con I found with it. The Reverb sounds amazing for 50 dollar pedal.

[@psychedelia6891]

I agree man!!

[@bulletsforteeth5029]

Tough call on the Tremolo... Louder is always better, but the variety of the Sonicake lends more tonal options and faster sine wave patterns. I'm gonna cast my vote for THE WARPED DIMENSION on this one.

[@uncle_ike]

Great video! One more vote for the Effects Bakery trem.

[@MrmelodyUs]

I love your playing and feel. You don't use 10 tons of fuzz- unless necessary. Groovy demo- groovy WARPED DIMENSION pedal. Gotta say Levitate is pretty hot too!

[@Docsjeff]

I’ve got 1 of those smaller Delay pedals and 1 Chorus pedal. They work great. I use that delay w/my PSG.

[@julioreyes3673]

That is a beautiful guitar!

[@ralphhathaway-coley5460]

Understatement of the week ..... 14:50 "Oh, that's a bit much!" 🤪

[@WilliamFeryll]

never stop the two Princeton's !!!

[@diarrheapool]

i have a sonicake ir pedal and noise wiper. they work great

[@jlundbom]

The little green trem is a clear winner, and if you have room for the Sonicake you have room for the little green trem AND a chorus or multi-wiggle

[@URTH-yb5xh]

Youre right about the Levitate Dark and moody very nice And the 10 band eq is a must Ehx Knock out just a thought

[@oldcrackadated]

I’ve got a levitate on the way ,be here in couple of days

[@BrandonMobley614]

7:07-7:20 that effect sounds exactly like Dave Navarro’s tone on the intro for the live version of “Ocean Size” by Jane’s Addiction.

[@Sm0kn]

You should check out the Empress Para EQ Deluxe Pedal on that board ❤Knew their was a reason I always liked your channel. God bless brother 🤩Your Ch is a breath of fresh air from my Metal Slaughterhouse 😌Playing😏One year ago I woulda said put the levitate sideways to fit both pedals😋

[@ryanpetriello3461]

I adore the "Two Princetons" bit

[@LuisRFeliu]

that's a cool tshirt 🤘

[@EasyHeat]

The Levitate definitely has my attention! The Tone Group EQ also peaks my interest as I sometimes practice the philosophy of utilizing a good EQ as boost into an overdrive or crunchy amp. The Warped Dimension overall was my least favorite. IMO the Sonicake 5th Dimension is cheaper and just as useable if not more? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Great demo dude! 🖖

[@SonicRave1]

I have the Levitate and the Warped Dimension. I love the Levitate but I’m a little disappointed with the Warped Dimension only because if you turn down level then the volume of your signal goes down with it!

[@platypuspracticus2]

The two princetons bit is a strong, strong bit.

[@NintenDub]

🎵 New pedals,it's to play em baby,just go ahead now.🎶

[@stk7778]

Im a sucker for plate reverb. Levitate sounds nice. The plate does have a spring like quality but is grainy. Real nice on neck pick up but not on bridge

[@MrStorm029029]

I've noticed that when using modulation pedals, it's like you said. High or low, but then in between you have to treat it like a delay. Time base it. Then you could also tap on the 2&4 or 1&3 etc 6/8 would be 135 or 246 etc. Have fun!

[@DeAthWaGer]

The warped sounds great for $50, better than the settings in the Mooer Multi or Sonicake Muti mini pedals. Is it all digital or are the effect circuits real bucket brigade analogue?

[@tymime]

If that version of the Super-Sonic was a signature model, I'd buy it

[@onefatstratcat]

You can have your Sonicake and play them too!

[@philczternastek8760]

I was jumping around in the video. I think about 8 seconds into hearing the reverb I was clicking on the amazon link. I'm being good until I hear the delay too.

[@zachary963]

Gosh that Levitate is gorgeous….

[@adamjanda6542]

Is it possible that for the warped dimension, the tap tempo and time knob control two separate modulation sources? That would explain the multi-modulated character. Turn down the time knob to zero, and you have only tap tempo modulation. Turn it up, and you have both.

[@TheChristafershawn]

Effects Bakery trem no contest.

[@Savageronin506]

So is there a list of whats current on the board? This vids are great also the podcast is epic too!!

[@ingridelknermusic]

I wanna know too! Especially the first board (praise & worship board?)

[@BlondeBeard18]

Here looking for a delay for my P&W set up, and I feel totally seen and a bit called out 😅

[@bruceman9581]

I always end up on your channel 👍🏻

[@TheDrunkenScoundrel]

It actually looks like 'Tone Grolip' on the pedal. So that is what I shall call it.

[@noRest4Gary]

I would go with the tone bakery tremolo

[@cosebanali]

I like the shape of the AFFORD-A-CHURCH

[@jacobbockover1628]

I sometimes but the little pedals they make just to see if i wanna invest in a fancier pedal. Thats only maybe 20$ less than a lot of used delays or verbs (not both) is it worth using?

[@hernanlinaresoficial]

Hello God bless you. Thank you for all your videos, they are very helpful. What cheap tremolo pedal would you recommend? I play in a Christian church. Thank you very much for answering.

[@leob4403]

The jesus christ superstar phaser made by church pedals is the way to go

[@juansguerrero0602]

Bucking the trend. You need a $2100.00 eco rec & a $3700.00 Leslie tone cab.

Wrong channel but we dig the enthusiasm 😂

Touché - this was intentional

[@Dranykust]

Phaser in sonicake is a killer

[@buckm1477]

To my ear, the chorus sounds like it’s going for the EQD Sea Machine thing

The Warped Dimension should make the board because it's much more versatiile and interesting creativily

[@maxcullum2920]

Stumbled across your show while investigating buying cheap Chinese guitar pedals. Great show by a hugely knowledgable person. Of course the (more money than a bull can shit brigade) will rubbish these pedals. But not everyone because of other commitments can afford to go the more expensive route. There are so many cheap brands out there it is hard to make a decision and shows like yours are a huge help in that regard.

[@cedricblanc7087]

Ryan, will you send me a guitar if this pedal - Biyang Tonefancier X-Drive OD-8 - becomes your new drive pedal for the affordaboard?

[@mrNobody100]

SUPERSONIC!!!!!!!!!

[@GiantsFanJames]

I think the effects bakery trem does sound better, but the Sonicake is more versatile... I'd still go with the effects bakery though! -Cheers!

[@leonruvalcaba1549]

[@slimturnpike]

I wish there were a tone control for the plate reverb. Sounds way too bright to me.

What a thorough review/ demo. And to think, I nearly threw away $200 on an EarthQuaker delay, reverb pedal. I hear that the EarthQuaker is very noisy, although I like that it's made in the USA. That you say the Levitate is very quiet (I think it was you who said that. I checked a lot of reviews!), this is a big selling point. Thanks!

Louder means you hear more guitar.. match the volume to compare maybe? Of course if you want a boost. . .

[@mesoutube]

I vote for the warped dimension. It's more versatile.

[@BobSperber]

ANYBODY: Does the gain do much? ’ve been looking at this and the Joyo and Donner, 10-band EQs, which don’t add the gain.

[@fuckgoogle8661]

If it’s just for trem, bakery wins, but over all and options it’s Sonicake. Get a bigger board, than you can have both.
