Hologram Electronics Infinite Jets Re-Synthesizer Demo

[@BrettKingman]

This is a wonderful demo, Stefan. It looks and sounds fabulous, your delivery is clean and concise and for once I actually feel like spending money on a new pedal (no small thing around here). Well done, mate, and thank you.

[@thepedalzone]

Brett, wow!! So honored to receive such kind words from one of my all-time demo heroes. Thank you! You will not regret jumping down the Hologram wormhole. It's just an amazing ride from start to finish. Thank you for watching my videos, buddy. You have no idea how much it means to me ❤😊

After almost 14 years away from even touching a guitar it was this channel that lead me to go out and start again.

[@thepedalzone]

Dude! That's mind-blowing to hear. I'm deeply humbled ❤

[@jasonpaden8641]

This is by far the best demo of this pedal that I've seen. Not only was your playing beautiful, you made it really clear what you were doing to get each sound. By actually giving us a glimpse at what you were playing and how you built up each sound, it made it a lot easier to wrap my head around what the pedal is actually doing. Bravo!

[@thepedalzone]

Awww, man! Thank you! Super stoked to hear that you found the demo both helpful and inspiring. Makes all the work worth it. Thank you for watching and commenting. Means so incredibly much to me ❤

[@leftpastsaturn67]

Easily the best demo of this monster I've seen so far... nicely done Stefan.

Oh wow! Super honored to hear that. Thank you so much ❤️🙏

[@jamesf2918]

Oh man, this is blowing my mind. I’ve heard it a few times, but not in such an ambient context. Great demo!

[@thepedalzone]

James F - Awwww, dude! Thank you! So thrilled to hear you liked it and that the ambient context gave you a new perspective on the pedal. It’s such a great and inspiring device! 😊

I finally got the chance to see your demo. Probably the best demo I've seen so far for the Infinite jets. Wasn't convinced about how awesome this pedal can be until now. Marios

[@thepedalzone]

Oh, man! That’s so incredibly nice of you. Really honored to hear that my demo shed some new light on this magnificent pedal for you. It truly is one of a kind, and one of the best pedals I’ve had the pleasure of demoing. Thanks for watching and commenting. Always means so much to me 😊🙏

You are the most dangerous man on the web Stefan. Your demoos are really excellent and make want to buy each single pedal you present. well . I like that you make use of loops so you can heat each alteration of a parameter clearly. Kudos to you!

Are you going to do a video on the Microcosm?

[@duncanglasson1550]

This sounded like there was only really 3 or 4 usable places to go with it, It's not a lot but I've had many a machine that only had 3 or 4 patches as part of my composing arsenal. It's not a downplay on it, rather than a lot of it sounding too far out for me but 4 solid voices to write with is cool as part of a set. These videos are excellent and I've been enjoying them, thank you for such a cool, unique and approachable manner !

[@krowland7584]

Vids on point. A-mazin

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks, man! Really happy you liked it 😊🙏

[@hakonsoreide]

A very interesting pedal that I've never heard about. And it would have been cool to have two since it's not stereo, which would also allow for very wicked things to be done separately to each channel before mixing it together again in a following reverb section. I can only presume the name is a wordplay on a Hamlet reference where Yorick (the man whose skull Hamlet is holding up) is described as a man of "infinite jest".

At 6:40 where your playing the low droning notes over the high glitchy stuff. Did you use a seperyloop pedal or is that all coming from the infinite jets? Amazing sounds man

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you, my friend ❤️🙏

[@shaft9000]

I can see this being a handy thing to plop onto a small portable pedal-board to take to a session when travelling light, but not much else. In my own studio or for live/touring it's not interesting in the least. Or maybe as a 'splurge' b-day present for a relative novice to get their feet wet in this direction, perhaps? For the already initiated, a half-decent modular synth with a PPL runs circles around this - while also able to generate/process or sequence other sounds simultaneously. If you DIY it the case&PSU is a bit steep initially, but then you can build modules (that do waaay more than pedals can) for 30-80 bucks in parts.

[@thepedalzone]

shaft9000 - Well, then this pedal is obviously not for you. Hope you find something new that fits your needs at some point 👍

[@TheCrystalyne]

I'm going to buy this Stefan, I have to...we all have to....

[@buzzardleflesh334]

great demo, such a shame the Avalanche Run doesn’t have a true tap tempo it only does preset tempos (dealbreaker for me) so i got a Roland RE20 Space Echo instead and never looked back. Infinite Jets is next on my list for guitar and synth

[@rahzark]

Aww yiss! Magicbox pedal. I love this type of shit but I already got myself a CT5. Maybe next Xmas? Great video as usual.

[@thepedalzone]

Thanks, buddy! It truly is a box of magic, and it would pair well with the CT5. Think I gotta go home and try that combination now 😊

[@dewberry3043]

Hi! Do you think these will cut beautifully and use with ease live? I cannot find another pedal similar to this. I need to decide this week.

[@thepedalzone]

Yes, it’ll cut with ease. If you need more volume boost during super loud segments then you can just engage its built-in analog drive, or place a booster after it :)

[@dewberry3043]

Good thing I already have a booster and put it after. Got it! Thanks for the info!

[@MrKadidle51]

You need to do the microcosm. I've got the microcosm but would love to have the other two as well.

[@jonaseggen2230]

I would love to have this pedal my self but wonder if I wouldn't be a bit annoyed that its mono. Maybe for guitar it doesn't matter, but to me it seems like this thing wants to play with anything and everything that makes a sound. Saying that, the way you use this thing makes it sound like you got the most considerate and attentive synth player hidden in the background some where.

[@the5chord]

Great demo! Stereo would be awesome as well

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you! And yes, stereo would be cool, but it already sounds massive in mono 😊

[@bringbackthe1960sppl]

Damn dude, you do a great job on your vids. I've watched about 6 of them now, surprised you only got 6k subs. Do you get sponsored to show some of these pedals off or do you buy them all yourself? Also what's all your guitars and amps you own? I have a couple videos of me using some equipment and plan on making some new vids soon since i got the: tc electronics triple delay Alexander radical delay old blood endeavors noise black fountain catalinbread katzenkönig and soon I'll have the Caroline meteore for christmas :) I plan on getting the in order: old blood noise endeavors excess Dwarfcraft Devices - ARF death by audio reverberation machine OLD BLOOD NOISE REFLECTOR CHORUS NOISEMAKER Old Blood Noise Endeavors - Fault Land Devices HP-2 Harmonic Percolator... but that will take a year or two.... lol I also have for my main tone always the lofi junkie, a cheap vintage OD pedal i use on the pedals also. Thanks for another good video! Also last thing, what camera do you use?

[@robertevans6428]

Well done friend, the IJ is one great instrument! You gotta try with a Night Wire after in attack mode

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you very much! I’ve already tried it with the Night Wire. Showed that on my Instagram Stories a couple of days back. Sounds phenomenal 😊🤘

[@Zavarzin]

Great demo Stefan, you really know how to bring out the best out of pedals and make the demos musical! I read that you need to calibrate the Infinite Jets before you use it. So if you calibrate it with a clean tone and then step on a fuzz, does it mess up the calibration? And have you tried the other Hologram pedal?

[@thepedalzone]

Thank you very much! Your kind words mean a lot to me :) Just calibrate the pedal with your highest possible input (the fuzz pedal engaged) then it will work equally well on clean sounds as well as fuzz sounds. And yes, I have the Dream Sequence as well. Another great pedal from Hologram :) Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@Zavarzin]

ThePedalZone Will you do a review of the Dream Sequence? :)

[@thepedalzone]

Yes, at some point. Probably won't be before the new year though.

[@garymesser8679]

Have you reviewed the Hologram microcosm? I enjoy your reviews... this one is a must!

Since you have this too, what’re your thoughts on the microcosm? I’ve been playing the infinite jets and love it..

[@gsboss]

can i work this with a synth? i know the microcosm gets paired with synths but i only see people messing with this with guitars

[@thepedalzone]

I'm sure you can. You just have to recalibrate the input trigger for whatever instrument you use with it. It's all described in the manual :)

[@datamouth]

does this pedal have stereo inputs/outputs?

[@albertopicciau9934]

hi! at 5:46 I can't hear the dry guitar, how is it possible?

[@thepedalzone]

Because I've dialed the dry signal completely out on the pedal. You can see that the Dial labelled DRY is turned completely counter-clockwise, which means the no dry signal is let through. Enables you to create these awesome synthy swells ☺

[@albertopicciau9934]

@@thepedalzone thanks! Defenetly the option I need...

[@Klocaine237]

[@thepedalzone]

Rad!

[@mpbenoit]

Are there other, simpler, pedals that can produce those blur tones? I love the whole pedal, but if there are other, more affordable options for producing merely those background string/synth sounds I’d be interested. Does anyone know of any pedals dedicated to this that you can point me to?

[@thepedalzone]

Not that I'm aware of. You can get some fun sustaining sounds with the EHX Superego, or their 9-series. So you can look into those. But it won't be precisely the same as the Infinite Jets. The IJ is one of a kind ❤

[@mpbenoit]

ThePedalZone thanks for your response!

[@palmacbeth885]

nice!

[@palmacbeth885]

but is it strange that its not stereo. and no tone control on the wet signal? it would be cool if it could at least split effect and dry outs. maybe more for creation/performance than studio

[@thepedalzone]

You can adjust the tone by holding down switch A and turning the Drive knob. This pedal is deep I tell ya 😉

[@palmacbeth885]

cool. def feels overwhelming to consider what could be done with it... great demo (again) btw!

[@brodyworrell572]

Where would you place this in your signal chain?

[@thepedalzone]

As the first pedal in the chain. It needs a clean and consistent input to perform its best

[@DWanEllington]

[@thepedalzone]

It’ll happen sooner or later. Just need to find the time 😊

[@christopherthomasrichardso9014]

Are you running avalanche into jets? Or jets into avalanche? Have you tried both?

[@thepedalzone]

Jets into Avalanche. No, haven’t tried it the other way around since the Jets requires as clean and consistent an input signal as possible to trigger properly.

[@christopherthomasrichardso9014]

ThePedalZone ok, so you're saying it wouldn't work well on synth pads, for instance. I mean, I guess that's fine. It makes its own pads. Thanks for the reply.

[@Ytrearneindre]

not having stereo in/ out at this price range is crazy IMO

[@guidedbyechoes]

It would be even more awesome if ithad a cut off filter to make the tone a little darker and less digital sounding.

[@thepedalzone]

You can adjust the Tone/Filter by holding down Footswitch A and turning the Drive knob. Clockwise will give you a brighter overall sound, whereas counter-clockwise will give you a darker sound.

[@guidedbyechoes]

@@thepedalzone nice!

[@ESANANIKONE]

Still using it today ?

[@Blythe31]

Where does one even put this in their signal chain?

[@thepedalzone]

The most common thing would be to put it very early in the chain, since what the IJ does is basically a combination of filter modulation, pitch-shifting and amplitude modulation. All effects that go in the beginning of your signal chain 😊

[@Blythe31]

ThePedalZone so before my dirt section but after my compressor would work?

[@thepedalzone]

Yes! That will work. You can also run it after dirt. Just make sure to calibrate it for a dirty signal if you do 😊
