[@king__sighs]

Honestly, one of the best pedal video formats I’ve seen. Thank you for this

[@corbinbyler6332]

It’s so good! I laughed super hard throughout the entirety of the video, but I also can’t wait to try out these tips with my PS-6! Hahaha!

[@lmg1033]

The best by far, I mean who else is even trying

[@Jessafur]

I really love this editing style. Great tones too!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks jessafur it's you and me babe

[@richiesmith6376]

I want your youtube channel to explode. This is such fantastic content. You and I are a lot alike in that I'm quickly bored with basic pedal functions and always need to try to find the extremes of what any given box is capable of... I blame being 35 years old and Electro-Harmonix pedals for this...

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks richie, glad we're on the same page. please share the videos wherever you can!

[@joobchrismac8706]

@@CyberattackWorld did it ever give u idea to make your rig better ...... did ur sound change become angry and compress and .... give u more?

[@joobchrismac8706]

It tell me i need a metalzone in my rig

[@dontfeedthemilkshake]

Absolutely the best format of any pedal video I've ever watched. Phenomenal editing!

[@GigaAlmond]

Thank you for the great vid. It helped cement my decision to pick up the harmonist and I have loved it since it arrived. Good work.

[@Joegallagher3000]

A tip for anyone using the PS6 in a traditional way for solo harmonies, etc - Get a headphone amp like the Blackstar or Vox ones and plug that into the stereo out. Running a long aux lead from that to the PA makes for an an easy real stereo harmony that sounds much more realistic than going mono through your own amp and means you don’t need to lug a second amp around. 👍🏻

[@_peachbeach]

this is wonderful and great please keep making videos it's perfect and im buying one of these tomorrow

[@LeftyPem]

This has honestly been the most useful video about the PS-6 I’ve seen since I bought mine 2 years ago. This really changed how I look at its features!

[@BreeceMatarazzo]

This is the best pedal tutorial hands down. Totally gonna get one of these now. Thanks man

[@birdsong2552]

This is my new favorite youtube video. Cyberpunk pedal meets 80's wave artwork. Exceptionally!

[@ReignCharger]

Great video, I've been using my PS-6 for years but never to such awesome effect. Thanks bruh!

[@shengiskhan2255]

This is awesome, I’ve never reached the full potential of this pedal, found it hard to incorporate it into anything but these tips will definitely be getting used , awesome video

[@CyberattackWorld]

Have fun but remember to be safe

[@JY-cq8th]

I've been going through all your videos from first upload... Ivan, the quality of your perspectives cannot be understated. I'm endlessly grateful for the way you're opening up my eyes to a world of incredible creativity.

[@ts8lemonade]

Thanks for the tips! I had mine before my distortion pedals initially, but you're right it sounds SO much better after them!

[@doggym4651]

this video was so entertaining and informative, it gave me a feeling of hope and inspiration! I borrowed this pedal from a buddy once, I couldn't believe how good it was. It will definitely be one of my next gear purchases.

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks, i hope you have fun with it. i too am filled with hope and inspiration whenever i think about the Boss PS-6 Harmonist

[@Daniel-rg9sl]

These vids are super useful. And your acid bubble gum 8-bit animation is amazeballs.

[@joshmiller2446]

Love the vid man!😆 Totally bizarre but great information and the way you talk is real, like listening to a friend explain how it works, thanx bro!

[@gabrielscheifele4310]

Just got new inspiration in how to use my PS-6. Thanks. And btw your videos are awesome!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thank you, enjoy but remember to be safe

[@craiglizt8074]

Another top shelf vid! Unique sounds here for sure. Now I need one of these pedals.

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks man have fun

[@DrMuseclectic]

Best guitar effect pedal review ever! Superbly imaginative!

[@rogerwinter6178]

This video is by far the most useful and informative video on the PS-6. Great job. Thank you.

[@kingtaco4064]

you poor soul, you probably came for a normal review like i did but instead we got this scizo type content lmao

[@markcrisostomo108]

Man this is seriously very good! I learned alot from it, I've always wanted this pedal for like Maiden stuff, but it can really do so much more. Cheers brother!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thank you

never have i ever come across the coolest KZbin channel like Cyberattack,🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 you are the GOAT

This definitely helped becoming more advanced with my Harmonist! Thanks.

[@blairmmackinnon5808]

This was so much fun (and importantly, very helpful). Thanks

[@BorisBidjanSaberi11]

I just for my harmonist thanks to your video. Wow dude, just wow. Your channel is the best

[@ntrnate]

Very entertaining and informative. I came looking for more Carbomb style shit but this is just as good 👌

[@IllegalCharacters]

Bought one of these and immediately tested each of these. Led directly to finding a few completely different ways to use it!

[@NateThunder]

Such a dope video. Nice departure from the other Boss Harmonist videos.

[@Papinbrew]

That was AMAZING! I'm gonna have to get one of these and a tremolo now

[@hey12delila]

I had to rewind the video multiple times because I got entranced by the trippy editing and forgot what I was listening to, holy shit. Great video, I want a PS-6 now

[@CyberDocUSA]

Super trippy! :-) Actually got more interesting tone combos from that pedal than I imagined. Well done.

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks doc, PS-6 is an overlooked goldmine

[@harrisfrankou2368]

​​@@CyberattackWorld on my Oceans 12 I set one bank down an Octave. And the other bank Up an Octave. Then I set the expression to reverse them. So I get the two octaves inverting/ reversing on each other as fast or slow as I want. I made a synth too with the "tremolo accelerator" via expression and dry signal. It's nuts.

[@cadenceangel]

Awesomeness!! My fav channel for advanced Pro tips on very cool pedals!! Great playing too!!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks angel cat, i love being advanced with you

I bought this pedal cause of the Friedman demo but you just did the best effect vid I have ever seen!!! BIG THANKS!!!!

[@CyberattackWorld]

Thank you, sharing/reposting always helps

[@retsinam]

I discovered this video and your channel last week while looking for some inspiration on how to use the PS-6 and I've come back and watched the video and specifically the last part with that awesome synth/tremolo song like 38 times. I can't get it out of my head. I think I just need to learn the song and the solo, maybe that will help get it out haha!

[@CyberattackWorld]

that's awesome dude. that song is gonna be a track called "Dead Serious" on my next album whenever it comes out

[@andrewray2507]

Thanks so much! This demo was so much more useful than all the other ones I've seen that just used it on rock solos. Also those comment sections were just full of people saying " this pedal sucks, by this other more expensive one." The sound was exactly what I was looking for.

[@jinjxmusic]

Thank you for posting this. I've been using the PS6 for YEARS and always had issues with the S-Bend. i even read the manual (often) and was hitting a brick wall. I see that the the Rise and Fall time are separate that mode. You were getting that wacky Pat Metheny/John Scofield synth thing and I'm excited to be able to get that! Thanks again.

[@CyberattackWorld]

I'm glad, have fun

[@BrunoFidelisMusic]

Such inspirational content! Please keep this up!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks that's the plan

[@squirelova1815]

Maybe THE Best video about an effects pedal or guitar playing I have ever seen...EVER.

[@CyberattackWorld]

Glad you dug it, a lot more coming

[@shawngguitar]

Super cool idea with the P5 up with chords!! It’s such a cool way to be able to get some of those chord extensions (such as 9 and #11) into a nice, lush sounding chord!!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks dude glad ya dig it

[@teruki302293]

Wow, superb review. I love the diagrams, dolphins and mortal combat!

Amazing video! Love everything about it-- best visuals lol. Very underrated pedal. It's soooooooooooo good.

[@Yoshi1up]

oh and you're the first person i've seen that puts the harmonist AFTER the distortion pedals o_o haven't really switched it around, but i'll try it!

[@CyberattackWorld]

thank you, and yes I agree this pedal is absolutely an underrated jackpot. lemme know how you like it after distortion, I think the difference is night and day. FX loop is even better, I've found.

Love your videos brother! Always inspiring. Gas triggering though.

this is the best pedal review i’ve ever seen wow i’m blown away by the amount of effort put into this video tbh

Thanks for checking it out, there’s a lot of other vids just like this on my channel if you want to immerse yourself fully

[@jahlijahman]

@@CyberattackWorld subbed 😎

[@xxxx7904]

amazing !! i want one!! Great tones!!!!

[@jamiehamilton7568]

I love using the S-Bend to start a couple of octaves DOWN with a slow rise. Start with pedal down and play a major chord. It starts as a rumble and rises to resolve to the chord (reminds a little of the THX sound). Killer open to bring in any rock song. Let the chord resolve and start feeding back with the drums starting over the top.

[@jc-esl5238]

This video just revived my Harmonist... and my soul.

[@manualofalternativemusic]

This video is fantastic, that’s all I’ve got to say. Thanks bro! Just got this pedal because of you

[@CyberattackWorld]

that's awesome have fun

[@Michael-bl4no]

Same! My noisy Whammy pedal is going back and and I’m going with this one.

[@manualofalternativemusic]

@@Michael-bl4no couldn’t be happier bro, it’s smaller and (even though might look a bit overwhelming at first) you can dial in exactly what you want from it. Tweaking it is a lot of fun. Prefer it over my whammy dt too

[@illia_holenko]

It's both you and Janek Gwizdala (baby elephant sound) who's inspired me to buy this pedal (while already having 2 octave pedals on my board). Mine's arrived yesterday and I'm having a lot of fun and inspiration with it (as well as frustration lol) My noob-tip would be to place it at the bottom of the board so you're not stretching your leg while using s-bend 😂 As always, thanks for the great video!

[@felodrummer9033]

i love your videos mate, u so cool its unbelieabable

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks dude, the trick is being extremely uncool during middle school

[@derekbender]

This whips. I wish you much success.

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks man

[@almessinger1834]

Very informative and inspiring video. I’m mainly looking for a pitch pedal to do 5ths, and I didn’t even realize all the other capabilities. The EHX Pitchfork is the standard these days, but this pedal seems to have more control. I like the way this tracks as opposed to a lot of other pedals.

Nice those are the same settings I love man! Good job and I love that you like Eco and mortal kombat, just one thing wow so you put the ps6 after your overdrive , I don’t l ow why but I put it be4 overdrive and it sounds super clean on my board , and even I have delay and reverb and delay before those and it works amazing , I also add buffer cuz without it ps6 takes a lot of the clean channel tone, good video man good sharing
