I spent the day with Knobs. It was amazing.

[@aproperhouse]

Man this video brought up some weird memories and feelings. My wife was on hospital bedrest for a week leading up to our daughter being born. About 20 hours into induced labor, she asked if we could listen to some Knobs demos for the good vibes during rough and scary parts. Autoplay eventually switched us over to some of Emily's videos, and that was our introduction to this channel. Thanks, both of you, for being legends. You unknowingly helped us through a scary fucking time.

[@emilyharpist]

oh, wow... thank you so much for telling us!! I'm so, so glad our music was able to help you both through a scary and uncertain time... that means the world to me 🥺❤❤❤

[@doctorauxiliary]

wow!! that is some deeply special shizz right there. it's like y'all got some asmr & some soothing musics & some friends & some sweet old memories & some brand new memories & some timeless healing magick all in one youtube playlist. & you made it through!! & you lived to tell about it!! & you made a frickin' baby!! yaaaay!!

[@rthorofthehillppl]

Hope all is good with you and your wife now ❤️

[@monologic4806]

Beautiful calming sounds. I'd purchase a CD to chill out. Thanks for sharing

[@emilyharpist]

Thanks so much! It was so incredible to be able to make some music together and I hope Knobs and I can do more soon!

[@SheldonBird]

That pedal is a Mood

[@emilyharpist]

It really do be!

[@danpechacek3855]

Two absolute gems. A hearty whazzaaaup to you both!

[@sethgreenberg1995]

Knobs made one of my very favorite albums last year, Stipple. It’s absolutely gorgeous and I 100% recommend it

[@emilyharpist]

Stipple is SO good! I highly recommend it as well!

[@aaronl3460]

"Playing with Knobs" will never have the same meaning again! Thanks for introducing us to him, and as always your awesome improv humor shines through ❤️‍🔥

[@RemitheDreamfox]

7:30 - He's so good at making random things sound trippy, dreamy and melodic, like oh my godddddd

[@CamiloSinger]

This was so much fun to watch! Knobs is an absolute legend, he's the reason why I got into pedals (specifically his Avalanche Run demo).

[@kcphotographystudios8836]

Nothing better then two talented people and the beautiful, peaceful sounds they create.

[@basementlyle]

Knobs kickstarted my pedal obsession and you inspired me to try my own take on a channel. Pretty cool to see two of my influences hanging out making cool sounds together. 😍

[@doctorauxiliary]

oooh... I'm watching one of your vids now... I love the format you've got goin' here... "this into that." yeeeaah... I like that. I'm listening to MOOD into specular tempus as I type this. gonna get back to the vid now, but just wanted to say, "bravo!!" some lovely piano tinkling into two of my fave effects. you have a new subscriber, lyle. ;-)

[@basementlyle]

@@doctorauxiliary Wow thanks! It's really fun seeing how different combinations play off one another. Just now I'm running Mood into Mood mk2. Excessive lol. 🥰

[@ileutur6863]

Watching Knobs actually play his quirky angular melodies instead of trying to guess what his fingers are doing is a weird feeling

[@doctorauxiliary]

very cool to see him actually play!! the 4th wall has been broken. the curtain has dropped & the wizard of knobs has revealed himself. ;-) to see & hear these two jamming together... just way, WAY cool!! & as I'd've figured, the results are real, real good.

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

"Look at my fingies!" 😆😂🤣

[@jebus456]

Emily's poor fingies :'(

[@Kutomaru1]

Playing guitar is like willing cutting your fingers with razors 🥲🥺

[@kaitlyn__L]

@@Kutomaru1that’s just your signal to take a break! If you take a break every time it hurts your fingies, within a few weeks it won’t hurt anymore because the skin grows just a little thicker 😊

[@Kutomaru1]

@kaitlynn_L Yeah i got the callases. But i mainly play electric. So when I switch to acoustic. That acoustic will chew my hands up.

[@kaitlyn__L]

@@Kutomaru1 that’s interesting, I have no problem with bronze string acoustics. Never really used nylons or steelies tho!

[@sammybrown4680]

So happy these two souls got to meet. A very beautiful experience to watch. 😇

[@stevebragg7914]

Watching these two laugh is a cure for any bad day. Thanks friends!

[@ArtOfSoundGuitar]

That guitar has a mood in it :0

[@frankies.4500]

It's so cool seeing the man behind the knobs. That is the channel I think of when it comes to new and interesting effects. What an awesome collaboration. 😊❤

[@rockyowitz]

There was something funny but really chill when y'all switched instruments and the first song played. Just simple notes on guitar while Knobs did alternate playstyles, sounded dope. Thanks for the vid!

[@kevinhartley7298]

One of the coolest dudes ever. You guys rock.

Amazing. And once again I am reminded that I cannot play an instrument but I really want to buy Mood. 😅

[@spdcrzy]

LMAO his first pass at the harp and he immediately starts fucking with the sound XD I love it

[@TheMachinesWon]

Great video, Knobs videos are legendary~

[@benfowler2127]

Ok, so this is at least the third video that I’ve seen with the mood in it. I wasn’t looking at them before, but now I gotta get one.

[@jedmarsillo]

Emily Hopkins office manager. 😂😂😂 No that sounded like shit I don't do that anymore.🤣🤣🤣 If you didn't make awesome music you could do sketch comedy. I love what you all are doing here.

[@RemitheDreamfox]

That's THE Knobs? :O That's so wild, I always heard people talk about him, and I loved all of his cool trippy pedal videos, but I've never actually seen his face. It's super cool to learn more about him :D

[@JGlassy]

Love the fun in this one!

[@SmallBlogV8]

Amazed that Emily yelling at her harp was made to sound like she's communicating with the dead.

[@anthonyrich1592]

Some things never die. There's that one guy at my workplace that still greets me most mornings he's there with a "Wasssssup!?"

[@omgitsbees]

"no no that sounded like shit, I don't do that anymore." xD

[@KevinRoddy]

Hey Emily! Chase Bliss just made another sale - my Mood MKII arrives on Tuesday! Thanks for all you do to demo how the harp can make even cooler sounds!

[@wasaby123]

OMG YES YYYYYYYES!!!!! The biggest combo. This is gonna sound beautiful

[@AndrewStottisTheIndiWerWlf]

I loved this video and it was the cutest thumbnail ever.

Waaaaaaassssssssaaaaaaaappppppp!!!! Well gosh darn it if that wasn’t the best vid ever!!! Scott was my inspiration for starting my own video journey as well. Two of my absolute heros together!! What an absolute pleasure seeing you two create/laugh/reminisce together. This was extra special❤️❤️

[@Synthmansdestiny]

Oh! Emily! It’s always such a pleasure listening to you play harp and experiment with your pedals. I always hope the music never stops and we stay in the vibe forever. Thank you so much!!! ❤❤❤

[@DTZinatbakhsh]

🤣every guitar beginner thinks that about the dots. Loving these interviews Em!

[@cosmogang]

Once upon a time, knobs randomly commented on one of my Instagram posts. Pretty much nobody else acknowledged it at all. Doesn’t matter tho. Knobs loved it, and that’s enough.

[@andybungert]

Gotta catch this in a bit but I am soooo stoked ❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@stevelarson3229]

Thanks!! That MOOD pedal is a great one. Hooray for Chase Bliss!! Hooray for Emily!! Hooray for Knobs!!

[@smrchk2133]

Amazing, hilarious, inspiring! I love this video and I love both your channels. I love where you've been taking the harp, Emily, how creative and funny you are. Knobs, I love how you present pedals on your channel, I watch your pedal demos to relax and dream about the next one I'll be buying :) I finally managed to save up for a Habit and Mood II is on my list...

[@Frozen_Smoke1972]

This is the wholesome content we all need right now. Two of my fave KZbinrs, goofing off and having a lovely chat.

[@hyperverbal]

The office manager skit was the base of a music video that first showed how she was the first harp playing stunt woman... In another timeline when the Mood was off. ❤🎉

[@johnlone141]

Yeah, I have a Mood... in my guitar, no big deal 😂 Good energy, you should do an album one day, it would be pure sound therapy.

Same

[@omgitsbees]

Great video, Emily! I want to see more collabs like this.

[@deztruct0823]

I have only been playing guitar for 3 years and stumbled on your pedal demos after falling down the gear rabbit hole. I love the harp covers you have and you always make videos with such cool people, cool people and good music, What a combo! your channel is great and it sucks that people are so mean sometimes! Hope you and Russ have a good day and thank you for the videos

[@rthorofthehillppl]

The band name is "I'm Really Bad at This". Imagine the shock when people hear it for the first time and are blown away by the sheer awesomeness of the sounds coming from their speakers or headphones!

[@orryfishburne5326]

So much fun to see u guys hangout. I definitely want to try a micro looper. Just seems like endless fun.

[@samdixon6433]

love Knobs!! it's ASMR but for pedals and gear!!! I never knew what he looked like but he looks like a younger Paul Rudd who is aging more gracefully than the real Paul Rudd. great video!

[@bcook6960]

You yelling into the harp mic and then hearing the voice gave me Ghost Adventure vibes like when they’re yelling at the ghosts to respond and then some wacky sounds come through the spirit box. I’d rather have a Mood than a spirit box any day though.

[@Brumata]

Your first pedal was MOOD?!?! I got into weird pedals because of that Knobs video on MOOD too! Scott seems nice, but he is dangerous. Be careful everyone.😆

[@andsoistopped]

Yes. It absolutely is about the people. And you are some of those people. ❤❤❤❤

[@MrMegaManFan]

Emily, you're the legend. Before this video I had never even heard of him? Thanks for introducing us to him.

[@emilyharpist]

Knobs is the reason I started making videos in the first place! He has more total views on KZbin than I do! Thanks so much for your kind words :)

Yeah who is this jamoke? He seems alright.

[@wmpet5101]

Knobs was a great distraction for me during the pandemic. HIs style of playing as well as his style of making videos that are not repetitive at all is unmatched. Thanks for bringing him on camera. Hey do you use Dark World pedal? He did a video on that and I bought it. Its too much for me, still learning.

[@emilyharpist]

Hey!! Knobs is amazing. I do use the dark world pedal, but not so often! I should use it in some videos soon!

[@iwaspaidtoflywithyoubatman]

Well you 2 sound fantastic together!

[@RC-1290]

9:32 I thought that was a scary movie thing, but it looks like some American beer commercial may have had some hand in making people say that like that.

[@MATTTHEGREETER]

I discovered JHS and Beetronics thanks to you! I picked up the JHS Octave Reverb, which is completely addicting (I'm a bass player), but still saving up for a Beetronics pedal. Now JHS has revived ROSS Pedals, so I guess there's no end to the moolah I need to save up! Keep up the great work!

I learned something new today. I learnt that the Knobs Man looks just like my mate Jon. Knobs Man is this genius who drills straight into the heart of every auteur DSP pedal in seconds. I genuinely think he's the reason why there are now several microloopers! Jon likes the STANK RIFFS. Matamp and Orange and all that. I'm only saying this because I can imagine Jon and The Knobs Man enjoying an IPA together.
