EarthQuaker Devices Avalanche Run V1 versus Avalanche Run V2

Comparison video of the Avalanche Run V1 and the new Avalanche Run V2
Available for purchase at: thepedalzone.com/avalanche-run/
There’s no hiding it, I’m a die-hard fan of the EarthQuaker Devices Avalanche Run. It’s probably the pedal that I use the most since it just delivers flawless atmospheric ambience straight out of the box. So when EarthQuaker Devices announced an updated version of this ambient masterpiece, I of course had to check it out immediately. After the announcement, I noticed that a lot of people online had a hard time figuring out what sets the V2 apart from the V1, hence I thought I’d make a quick VERSUS video to showcase both the visual and sonic differences.

No one does the Avalanche Run justice like Stefan. Amazing playing.

[@thepedalzone]

Awww, man! Incredibly kind of you ❤️🙏

[@gdub2141]

Man was really hoping there wouldn't be enough difference to justify getting a v2, but it looks like once I get my stereo setup where I want it I will be making the upgrade. Thanks A LOT STEFAN!

[@thepedalzone]

Happy you found the video helpful. Yeah, the V2 is definitely a must for every stereo player out there. Just sounds phenomenal 😊

[@bluegiant244]

The v2 in stereo literally gave me chills. That pedal is INSANE. I'm sold man thanks for the amazing vid. Also, huge probs on your playing for this vid. It fits the pedal perfectly.

[@david57strat]

I just used the v2 to record ambient piano and flute tracks, to add to the ambient guitar tracks. Wondrous pedal! Thank you, so much for your incredible reviews, man. Stellar presentation, soulful playing, and just the right amount of humor, mixed in. Always a pleasure!

[@thepedalzone]

Deeply humbled and honored by your kindness and support. Thank you! Avalanche Run rules!

[@richwillison2453]

Heard the V1 in stereo and thought it was beautiful, then V2 kicked in, then the chills, stunning upgrade. Great video yet again. Thanks.

[@lucaarmari3418]

As always great playing, super inspiring, can't wait to hear the EP from your band!

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you so flippin’ much! 😊🙏🤘

[@swiftymcgarnagle4567]

Dude, you are the most pleasant and enjoyable guitarist/ demo guy and your opinions of the pedals seems genuine. Plus your dog is super awesome

[@astrofaros]

This is the most beautiful ambient guitar sound I ever heard!!! Your demo and your playing is amazing!! I also like the dog at the end!! :-) I like more V2 for the amazing stereo sound!... Now, all I have to do is waiting to find the money to buy this!... I have also checked Iconoclast but it's too expensive for me, so I'm thinking of buying 2 identical cheap guitar amps to use it in a stereo setup!! Thanks for your amazing demo!! Keep on!!... :-)

[@alexj3007]

I swear, every time I watch one of your videos I’m getting my credit card ready to make a purchase. I’ve had my eye on the avalanche for a while and now, I’m ready to buy one! Thanks for the info and great video as always! 🙌🏻

[@thepedalzone]

That's awesome, dude! The Avalanche Run is one of my all-time favorite pedals. You're not gonna regret getting one ❤

[@classicalguitarchase]

Stefan, You sold me on this. After I got it, I am like you, I can't say enough about this awesome pedal. It has taken the place of all my other delay pedals. Good thing is, I am selling them all for cash.

[@guitarvaultstore8032]

Spectacular video. The stereo reverb in V2 sounds amazing!

[@thepedalzone]

Really happy to hear you found the video enjoyable and helpful. The stereo reverb is indeed flippin’ amazing. You get lost for days in that reverb once you turn it on 😊🤘

[@collectoremitter]

Great demo! I didn’t think the improvements on the reverb could make it sound that much better. Definitely getting a V2 now

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you! Yeah, the new reverb just sounds epic in stereo!

[@Eduardoasol]

Great demo Stefan!👍sounds a lot brighter and the sound on sound mode.. ahhhh is definitely a plus. But still both are awesome!

And now I want an Avalance Run V2. Thanks alot.

[@thepedalzone]

My pleasure 😊 It sounds stellar!

You are THE BEST! You’ve reinspired my desire to play ambient post-rock guitar! I think I may have to go with the Dispatch Master though!

[@jamesf2918]

This got me really excited to see what they’ll release at NAMM. Great demo as usual!

[@thepedalzone]

The Westwood Translucent Drive Manipulator is their NAMM release alongside these V2 upgrades 😊 Happy you liked the video 🙏

[@Clutch3672]

I got rid of my dispatch master for this even more amazing pedal. Thanks for all the great reviews I finally found my favorite delay/reverb pedal.

[@thepedalzone]

I'm happy to hear you're happy, and that you finally got your hands on the perfect ambient tool 😊

Dude. I JUST bought an avalanche V1 and was discussing how I couldn't find a definitive comparison between the two. And now this...Thanks so much! Awesome demo. V2 seems like a no-brainer.

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you! Yeah, if you play in stereo or like momentary control, then the V2 is a must have 😊

[@javieresteban8149]

Dude, your reviews are amazing. Truly, the videos you pull off are amazing and you can see the effort that went into them. If you don't mind me asking, where do you get the inspiration for the songs you use to try the pedals out?

[@Joldrath]

I just wanted to send you a huge thank you for your great video. There are cheaper reverb pedals out there, but no pedal has the lush reverb that this has. So I decided to buy it, based on your video. Again, thank you very much

[@davemau5e]

Yep Stefan! You convinced me now.. I run a stereo rig at home for recording. You sir have made the push for me to get this pedal.

[@thepedalzone]

Happy to be of assistance 😊 The V2 sounds spectacular in stereo!

[@Theylieohio]

I've just got into the Ambient scene and love the way you bring the best out in each pedal . I even play some of your videos back at half speed to see the chords you're playing. It would be Awesome if you made a Ambient chord video.

[@plunkandboom_]

They lie ohio I don’t think Stefan @ThePedalZone hides the fact that one of his influences is Andy Othling of Lowercase Noises. Andy did a few videos 4 or 5 years ago of ‘ambient tips’ and there’s a chord shapes one kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4upk2mjhtp7g5o

[@benjamincoggins6568]

He mostly play open tunings so you might not have much luck. Although I notice he’s in standard on this one.

[@JG-ux7of]

I'm sold, just bought the Avalanche Run V2. It's more expensive and as much as I love the Space Spiral's sound and simplicity, I think I would just end up wishing I had bought the Avalanche Run. I got the V2 because if you're going to get wet you might as well go swimming and as you demonstrated the V2 has multiple improvements.

[@thepedalzone]

That's so awesome to hear, man! You're gonna love it. It's one of my all-time favourite pedals for a reason ❤

[@delivrance3961]

awesome! i trust Oberst tone taste too!

[@Jaysteenn]

4:57 WOW! Awsome man

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks, dude! 😊

[@jedielrodriguez4835]

You always get amazing tone and sounds that are always inspiring. In short you make me pickup my guitar. Please keep doing more and more. Also hope to see you doing more dirt pedals this year. P.S. How do you like the Iconoclast compare to the C.A.B? Can you please do a shootout or a comparison using the same rig around them?

[@j.sherwoodowl4826]

Stunning playing. Great demonstration of the pedal's capabilities. Well done.

Omg real stereo??? **whatching the vid** Awwwesome upgrade, been hesetating on this one for so long, time to finally get it!

[@thepedalzone]

Sounds pretty damn real to me 😊

[@Alex-ci1nt]

Only the reverb is stereo. The delay is still dual mono

[@thepedalzone]

Yes. Exactly!

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you so much! 😊🙏

[@fredrikmoback146]

Typical! Just when I thought a V1 was good enough your vid made me realize it isn’t😉 Thanks for a great vid and explaining the differences. Great playing too. Please keep on with your vids. Great work👌

[@thepedalzone]

Cheers, man! Happy you found the video helpful and inspiring

[@187metalmonster]

I didnt have the v1 but this new v2 is insane. I love this thing. The sound is HUGE in stereo!!!

[@thepedalzone]

Yeah, the V2 just sounds spectacular in stereo! Mind blowingly massive 🤘

[@SrNeira]

Hey dude! Amazing review as always! Can I ask, is that Talman a new model or is it an old one? and If it's a new one, would you recommend it? Sounds mint, though. Keep the good work :)

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you very much! Happy you enjoyed the video 😊My Talman is from the original 90s production line. It's a great guitar. Really like the neck. I've only heard good things about the new updated Talman line though. I would jump on one in a heartbeat if I didn't already own one.

[@thatdatmuffin]

I love the Talman. I used to have one exactly like that- blue finish and everything. Only guitar I ever had stolen. Its good to see one like it again.

[@thepedalzone]

Oh, man. So sorry to hear that yours got stolen. What kinda people do that stuff?? 😢But they are fairly easy to find on the used market, if you want one again. And Ibanez have reissued the design as well, but with a different pickup configuration. They are awesome as well. I really love the Talman design. Kinda the perfect "Strat" design for me ☺

[@thatdatmuffin]

I’m keeping my eyes open for one. Forgot how much I missed it!

[@unisonosc1617]

Very nice comparison video. I much prefer the sound of the V1. It has a soft coloration almost like low passed white noise floats on the bottom. Dense and lush. The V2 sound is too clean and the stereo image heavy handed.

[@thepedalzone]

Happy you enjoyed the video, man ☺

[@187metalmonster]

Great demo by the way!!! This channel is hurtin my wallet

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks, man! Means a lot to me that you liked the demo 😊🙏

[@RustySoul-ii1cl]

You are my favorite guitarist! I'm 34, been playing since I was 14. Please revisit this pedal!

[@thepedalzone]

I'm deeply humbled and honored to hear that. Thank you so much!

[@RustySoul-ii1cl]

@@thepedalzone it's the honest truth. A lot of your style reminds me of my favorite bands like "this will destroy you"

[@RobertMurphy-wm3ge]

V1 "stereo" still sounded very mono to me. The V2 was actually a stereo image. REALLY well done on this video. I had been looking at the Immersion, Hall of Fame, and Dispatch Master.. This is tough now! Excellent demos

[@bitspacemusic]

The old smaller enclosure sounds warmer.

[@DWanEllington]

Awesome vid! And you got that J. Mascis!

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks, buddy! And yeah. It still needs a proper setup before I can use it in demos. But will get that done soon. It’s a phenomenal guitar though. Sounds so good!

[@latontolog]

The Squier Mascis is amazing value for money, I love mine.

[@WeSpeakEnglishGood]

Damn it! Now I’m going to have to get the V2 and pay the extra 50$! Thanks man!

[@thepedalzone]

My pleasure! 😊 If you play in stereo, then the V2 is a must-have.

[@thewomanwithnohead]

Wow ! The V2 with that stereo reverb now sounds preeeetty close to the Meris Mercury 7 pedal !

[@thepedalzone]

Yeah, it sounds amazing!

[@CorbCorbin]

I think they made enough to justify the 50 dollar difference. On Mono the V2 seemed to have a little less treble, or high end, but the stereo and hold features were nice add ons. Nice comparison and explanation.

[@anthonywong9462]

OMG!

[@PatrickTeachestheWorld]

Does the reverb/delay stay on in sound on sound mode? I have been trying to figure it out and the pedal is only on when I'm holding the switch then it shuts off again while I play over the loops.

[@thepedalzone]

No, the reverb/delay isn't on in bypass mode when using sound on sound. It only engages when you turn on the pedal to layer loops. The reason why you can hear some reverb in this piece, when I'm not layering loops, is because I have the AR V1 on after the V2, and it adds some slight ambience. You can do the same if you have an extra reverb pedal ☺👍

[@the5chord]

This definitely sounds great. Wish the space spiral was a stereo delay though. I need the modulation!

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks! Happy you liked the video 😊 The Space Spiral pairs perfectly together with the Avalanche Run. The SS can really add some amazing movement to the lush ambience of the AR.

[@egorborisov4388]

Avalache Run 2 looks so fancy nice! I want to eat it!

[@thepedalzone]

It’s delicious! Yum yum yum 😋

[@jmi_music]

Hi! Great comparison. I'm new to stereo effect, and I would be going directly from effects into Audio interface as I cant use an amp where I record (too loud). Could you recommend a good stereo DI box? Did you record using 2 amps? Thanks!

[@AlfonsoCorace]

this new true stereo features reminds me the immense stereo image of the Specular Reverb from GFI.

[@thepedalzone]

The GFI stuff seems to be really good. Never tried their pedals, but they sound damn lush in the demos I’ve heard. But yeah, that updated stereo reverb image is to die for ❤️😊

[@birdsinwinter]

I just got a V1 for Christmas and now here comes the V2... lol

[@jamesprovenza]

I was hoping I wouldn't have to upgrade from v1 to v2. But I guess i do :-/ Thanks for the good demo and explanation.

[@moonglimmers]

EQD said they're going to to do some kind of upgrade for the v1's.

[@tokimasa85]

Great video as always! So I notice that you say the V2 is "true stereo" but the V1 is "dual mono". I'm guessing this means that the V1 just has identical copies of the signal going out to each output? How does the V2 make a "true stereo" sound? I definitely heard the difference, just wondering what I'm hearing!

[@deanwolfechannel]

v2 really is the one i'd go for

[@thepedalzone]

It's awesome! The stereo reverb is just incredible.

[@shaynesmallshayneheinous4240]

Awesome, thanks Stefan. So is it that the v1 CAN NOT do sound on sound?

[@norithmusic]

Hi Love the videos! What cable are you using to connect the pedals? Thank you kindly

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks, man! I use Providence patch cables ☺

[@gillesnoname6511]

Excellent !! Is it your new studio ?

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you very much! 🙏 No, that is far from my new studio. It’s my home office. Can’t put off filming content just because my studio is under reconstruction, so I’m filming at home at the moment. Pretty crammed for space, but it’ll do for now 😊

[@gngng5626]

Sounds strange for a grown man to say, but I am in love with ED. Earthquaker Devices, that is. Now, how would it sound with my old fuzz pedal?

[@thepedalzone]

I'm very much in love with EQD as well 😊 The Avalanche Run handles fuzz like a dream. I basically use the Avalanche Run as my base ambient tone in all of my demos. So you're welcome to check out some of my fuzz demos and hear how it pairs with that effect type.

[@asteriosfas7443]

Great demo of a great pedal! Unfortunately it's too expensive for me to get it here in Greece, as it costs more than 390 euros (more than 430$!!!) Anyway, V2 is totally amazing!!!!

[@thepedalzone]

Happy you dig the sounds!

[@legatomodi3522]

I really thought this would make me feel good about keeping my V1 cause my setup is mono and id never think about this ever again until that flexiswitch thing came up. The exp pedal on mine is always on the D.Mix setting for this exact use even though i could be using on any other parameter instead. Hmmm! Now i gotta ponder this awhile

[@AdADglgmutShevanel]

Sounds amazing! Someone near me has a v1 on FB Marketplace for $150, but I'm thinking I should just pay a little more for the v2.

[@thepedalzone]

Cheers, man! Yeah, if you ever play in stereo, then the extra bucks for the V2 will be well spent

[@absterama]

Omg the stereo of the v2

[@thepedalzone]

Yeah, it's wonderful ☺

[@blissmanu]

@thepedalzone actually Stefan, on this video, the 2 EQD are between the Le Clean and the Neunaber (which mean that the Neunaber headphones output support the stereo?) Am I correct? What a sound, again... ☄️🎵❄️

[@thepedalzone]

Yes, you're correct. Happy you enjoyed the sounds 👍

[@louisservet7931]

Beautiful ! Just a question : What happens at 4:55, the momentary long reverse delays loops, is only possible on v2, allowed by the flexi-switch ? (i'm pretty sure of the answer, but just want to be sure, coz a good deal on a v1 is just up there!)

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you very much! You can still do the looping thing on the V1. You just can't jump in and out of parts as smoothly since it doesn't have the momentary switch. But you can still do it by clicking every time on the latch switch ☺

[@louisservet7931]

Thank you ! :) gonna go for it !

[@WillemZenhorst]

@@louisservet7931 To be fair, the grabbed 'moments' in this clip were pretty long, easily done with normal switching; I use my V1 like this all the time :) But, I would love to get my hands on a V2 to try and get some really fragmented glitchy flexi-switching grabs.. Great demo!

[@rahzark]

This makes is sound like the v1 isn't stereo at all :D If you play in stereo upgrading to the v2 is totally worth it, imo

[@thepedalzone]

Yup! V2 is stunning in stereo. Absolute must have for all stereo riggers out there 😊

[@biomechnixon3220]

rahzark The V1 isn't real stereo, it's dual mono. It can pass a stereo signal, but the effect was always applied identically with no stereo spread, so it only has a different stereo image on each output if you are passing a true stereo signal.

[@martinreuter1060]

Nice comparison, thanks. Is it Oberst, that presses the switches? Or is it another animal? Looks like an opossum...or so. Or like a dangerous sock-rat.

[@flynn_22]

Hey Stefan what post rock bands would you recommend

[@coreyw5981]

The whole v2 in stereo was probably the greatest sound ive ever heard!! Although im currently not educated enough on "stereo" and how to achieve that sound. Do i actually need two amps to get that sound? Or how does that iconclast box work? What was your chain/path? Looks like nothing was coming out of iconoclast

[@thepedalzone]

Hey man! Happy you liked that sound. It does indeed sound incredible in stereo ☺ And yeah, to play in stereo you need two amps, or something that simulates two amps, such as the Iconoclast. The Iconoclast is a stereo cabinet simulator in a box. My signal path for the video was Guitar -> Le Clean preamp -> Avalanche Run -> Iconoclast. The Avalanche Run is going stereo into the Iconoclast, and the Iconoclast is going stereo out to my Recorder. Hope this helps ☺

[@AndyAcker]

@@thepedalzone woah, the Iconoclast is complete news to me, but I've been wondering how to best work with stereo pedals as they get introduced into my quiver. Are there other pedals or boxes like it that help to achieve this?

[@RobFlaxMusic]

@@AndyAcker GFI Cabzeus!

[@MichaelBucherMusic]

thanks for the video, sounds awesome. what i really hated in v1 was that tapping a new tempo killed the delaytrail. is this still the case with v2?

[@ryanworthley4555]

Michael Bucher yeah it is. I hated it at first too, but it’s not too bad after getting used to it a bit.

[@MichaelBucherMusic]

[@Kaimac-vz5gs]

I have to ask, do you have any recordings up anywhere? I'd love to hear what a album or EP from you would sound like!

Don’t have any solo recordings out. You can check out my old band Sky Architects on Bandcamp, Spotify and iTunes. Will also soon be releasing an EP with my latest band project called Cloud Anthems. Will let you know once it’s out 😊

[@0724FGARK]

Hi, thank you very much for this comparison video. I would like to know if it is possible to bypass the delay and only use the reverb?

[@thepedalzone]

My pleasure! Yes, you can just turn the delay mix down completely, and then you only have Reverb. You can also do it the other way around if you only want Delay 🤘

[@0724FGARK]

Awesome, thanks for the prompt reply, wishing you the best!

[@Nimbin]

Hi, I have the V1 for a year now, and I have a few questions. First is the dry signal is stereo in the new version? the the v1 only becomes stereo then you turn it on, witch is very annoying. also is the expresion switch the same? on my other pedals when expression mode is engaged the knob lets me limit the expression input - and in the V1 it dose not... did they change that by any chance?

[@toddlogan9023]

Wish this had a multi head feature and pre delay for the reverb…be perfect

[@mykhedelic6471]

I really wish the delay had a stereo option, and I'm actually not a fan of the wider enclosure. But it is undeniably lush. I'll keep my eyes and ears out for a v3...

[@HeebscuGaming]

Can you do the sound on sound looping with the V1 like you showed with the V2?

[@thepedalzone]

Yes, the V1 can do sound on sound. The momentary switches in the V2 just make sound on sound mode easier to use as you can quickly jump in and out of it 😊

[@giancork1656]

Do you bring Oberst with you if you are purchasing a new or second hand pedal ? :)

[@thepedalzone]

No, but maybe I should from now on. The cuteness factor might even have a positive effect on the final price 😂

[@alexbreyer6921]

Surprised to see you trying the Iconoclast here instead of the CAB pedal. It seemed to sound good.

[@thepedalzone]

I needed stereo. That’s why I used the Iconoclast. Torpedo CAB doesn’t have stereo I/Os.

[@MrK-ti5lt]

Do you recommend putting this towards the end, mid, or early in your pedal chain? Seems like it may be similar to the Afterneath in that it may play nicely with other later effects but wanted to get your take before messing too much with my pedal boards.

[@thepedalzone]

Honestly, there's no hard and fast rules when it comes to that. Sure, most people place delay/reverb at the end of their chain, but you can gain so many different textures from messing with the pedal order. I myself have personally used the Avalanche Run either last or before another delay and reverb pedal, so I could get both classic delay into reverb textures, but also reverb into delay textures. I totally recommend you mess as much as possible with your pedalboard 😊👍

[@louisndupuis]

Have you ever try to combine this gem with the Dispatch Master? I really dig my DM, but having the ability to have just wet signal is awesome. Do you think they would go well together? Thanks a lot!

[@thepedalzone]

Yes, they work wonderfully together. Dispatch Master is more warm and airy whereas Avalanche Run is more cold and dense. They compliment each other nicely 👌

[@louisndupuis]

@@thepedalzone thank you so much! I will definitely try!

[@AndyAcker]

@@thepedalzone Stefan, if we had to choose one, and go for the Avalanche Run v2, are there other pedals you'd recommend to chain after it and warm-up it's colder character? I need another delay pedal to stack with my Electroman (which is warm), but I can only buy one. Anyone? I'll also ask the r/guitarpedals gang.
