Hungry Robot Pedals - The Collective

[@chrisegg7936]

Hungry Robot is such a great designer and this was a great demo. Thanks!

[@EricMerrow]

They make so many inspiring pedals for sure!! Thanks so much for watching!

[@GuitarWithGabe]

I wasn't expecting to be as impressed with this pedal as I was after watching your video ... yet here we are. 😱 Very clever and cool controls to assist in an interactive playing experience.

[@EricMerrow]

Glad you dig it! Thanks for watching!

[@robertlewis8024]

Very well done. You clearly explained a potentially confusing pedal. Hungry Robot's approach to design is fascinating.

[@EricMerrow]

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching!

[@blvckmage]

Great demo! I ended picking one up and your review helped me get up to speed. The fuzz sounds great but there doesn't seem to be a lot of volume on tap--even with everything turned up, I'm barely at unity gain. Is this your experience with the pedal as well? Thanks!

[@EricMerrow]

Thanks for watching! And yes, that was my experience. To get over unity I had to use both fuzzes and the clean blend. You could also use a boost after the pedal to makeup for the level

[@troy2322]

Great Demo Eric, Very cool pedal, love the fact that it incorporates Octave fuzz into it, along with the signal feeding back into itself! And all the synthy tones!

[@EricMerrow]

I’m really glad you dig it Troy! Thanks for watching!!

[@patrickschilcher9386]

There's definitely some magic in that box. Thanks for sharing Eric!!

[@EricMerrow]

Thanks for watching Patrick!

[@MeatyController]

Sounds like a flaming bowl of Rice Krispies and I love it

[@EricMerrow]

😂😂👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘

[@chriscurran1967]

Great demo Eric!!! That is a pretty crazy pedal, seems very versatile. I like the blend control, seems pretty cool. Anyway, keep up the great work!!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@EricMerrow]

Thanks Chris! It’s a pretty wild pedal right? I definitely dig it!

[@SquareWaveSymphonies]

A great demo, Eric! The Collective is killer! If you could do a follow up demo of all the controls on the inside, that would be super cool! :)

[@EricMerrow]

I’ll try to squeeze that into my schedule! The internal controls always bring an extra level of versatility to the hungry robot pedals 👍👍

[@SquareWaveSymphonies]

@@EricMerrow If you can't find the time to do a demo on the internal controls, just check them out for yourself. They're definitely worth having a look at. :) They highly encourage you to play around with those in the manual.

[@mistershabadoo]

At first, I was intimidated by the design, but after your explanation, this thing is terrific! I really enjoy its versatility. I especially like that the synth feature isn’t overpowering - unless you want it to be! Lol Great one handed playing, Eric! Cheers!

[@EricMerrow]

Thanks so much Zach!

[@tylerrosier1068]

Killer pedal and killer demo!

[@EricMerrow]

Thanks so much!

[@PonyPharm]

Reminds me of the DOD Buzz Box a bit.

[@EricMerrow]

I’ll have to check out that pedal! Thanks for watching!

[@PonyPharm]

@@EricMerrow good luck finding one for cheap! They sell for insane prices these days.

[@shawnmann]

KILLER demo. Damn it. I thought I had a sufficient Hungry Robot collection 😂. Now, Eric, PLEASE PLEASE consider a quick, down and dirty video tutorial to teach us the guitar parts that you played in this video. SO COOL and honestly inspiring riffs and beautiful chords. I’d be so grateful for a quick lesson. ❤️ GREAT JOB!

[@EricMerrow]

Shawn, thank you so much! I’ll definitely think about doing some instructional videos. I haven’t really taught guitar before so it’s not something that I’ve thought about doing

[@shawnmann]

@@EricMerrow it could be really simple. Just show us the rad parts you’re playing in this video, and then we can jam your jams!

[@bagoftoysmusic]

It's like Beetronics Swarm, but makes more sense and easier to control

[@EricMerrow]

It’s definitely reminiscent of the swarm! Thanks so much for watching!

[@PonyPharm]

As a Swarm owner, I can agree with this comment.

[@scarymike51]

It dooms!
