Let's screw with the RAINBOW MACHINE by Earthquaker Devices (Episode 1)

[@dennisjonker7113]

Thanks for making a usable overview of what this pedal can bring you instead of just making those 40's dracula sounds

[@nopenada492]

This is amazing. Earthquaker should pay you for this demo.

[@HerezoGonzo]

Best video of this thing that demonstrates some actual functionality and variability.

[@kidgloves2]

The only Rainbow Machine demo on youtube that makes sense.

[@MrAlexhollins]

Imaginative, experimental and very good. Great to see somebody not scared to fail and taking it to the limit. Would it be insulting to mention Radiohead. I think folk who like them would get this.

[@oscarbedoya8939]

I'm really curious about the final sound of the Rainbow Machine paired next to distortion pedals. How does it sound going from a crunchy sound to a more extreme high gain setting? There aren't many videos about this on KZbin and I'm not sure why. I'd love to see a demo of this even if the final sound is not quite musical, just to satisfy my curiosity.

[@robtimn6040]

Next time you do one of these videos you should put a camera on the pedal so we can see what settings you're on for the sound that we're hearing. Also telling us what other pedals you're using and at what points you're using them would be awesome. Keep up the great work Andy, love your videos!

[@hendrixfan66]

That was ridiculous. One of the coolest demos on KZbin.

[@TheKillAxxis]

That was amazing! The best times I've had playing guitar have come from simply tinkering with effects pedals and seeing how they interact with one another. Can't wait to see another video in this series!

[@leascaart]

Best video review for this pedal I've seen so far. Thank you.

[@acumenfinito]

Fantastic video! May I ask what setting you had the RM on at 5:46 for the falling chorus effect?

[@warcat08]

The most dominant pedals I can hear is the Rainbow machine Obviously but also the el capstan with that cool delay sound and the mayflower is really giving it that edge.

[@derekmeeker2840]

How are you getting the oscillation w/o pitch bend sound? That's a setting I could really get some use out of but can't seem to find it.

[@jonathanallred8179]

Dude, this is the demo I have been waiting for, hats of to you, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

[@blakevanhouten1672]

If this isn't some of the best advertising ever I don't know what it, I want one...

[@robertabernathy3148]

Beautiful Noises!

[@themattybags]

Finally someone that understands how to actually use this pedal! All those crappy noise demos really underestimate what this thing can do

[@gasolinechlorine]

Man.. Tons of sweet sounds on tap, especially in combination with other pedals.

[@DowserGratt]

made me think to Jamie Hince with his "signature" sound he use in a lot of songs of The Kills ! :)

[@davidmckelvey2601]

I am in love with that riff at the beginning.

[@jasonwiltshire1642]

Wow, finally a really good demo of this pedal. It's got a lot going on under the hood. I played it for a few minutes the other day at a Guitar Center and couldn't make it sound anywhere as good as this. Great job!!!

[@IshaErskine]

I own one and im curious was the tremolo before or after the rainbow?

[@goldenbeasts1974]

Great stuff! I love pedals like this but always wonder how practical they'd be outside of just making weird noises. You showed some really cool uses for it. Love those slow rising and falling pitch bends.

[@dani1punch]

This is so cool! This is one of my favorite videos you have done! I mean all your videos are great but I like how you use the whole pedal board!

[@chrisblank8263]

HEY ANDY!!!!.... what is your recording set up on this vid? ...i spy a royer? and...? new or old royer? and brief descrip of your chain going in? sounds REALLY good btw. that pedal is fantastic!

[@mathewsonramsey8778]

Love the tele, such bite to your tone

[@CesarRomeroTheOriginal]

I love the riff at 3:56

[@ScottHarriganRules]

That's a pretty diverse pedal. Thanks for showing it off.

[@canone]

In love with that crunch/od sound you have going at 3:56 onwards. If I may ask, is that all bridge pickup, or blended bridge pickup with your strat middle pup? Also, is that dirty tone all from the Matchless, or do you have any comp/drive pedals switched on as well? I really admire and look up to your playing style, looking forward to more gear demos/songs from you!

[@officialbosmusic]

Awesome! I was just wondering how you did the bird on the Marshall cab. Keep up the good work, I love it!

[@Metalbaum]

one of the finest videos u have done awesome stuff, now go and record an whole album with this badboy

[@sonofGodforreal]

Dude the pedals sound amazingly crazy. I would love to have one. Where did you get them from

[@nicholasjordann]

That riff in the beginning what is it!? It sounded sweet!

[@nicozedled]

Hello Andy, sounds amazing! I want to ask you something: At minute 2:18 that you used to drive pedals that sound? At minute 2:18, which pedals you used to pull off that sound? Clearly there is a RAINBOW MACHINE and then more? the Timeline with the function swell? Thank you Andy! Sound is a hallucinogen! WOOOW!

[@filmlover1988]

Andy, your rig is so clean and quiet. With so many pedals, how do you manage to get rid of hum from overdrives and electromagnetic interference, etc. without using a noise gate?

[@pedalguru89]

Using an isolated power supply and soldered cables really helps.

[@filmlover1988]

pedalguru89 Well, I use two Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2+ and lava cables. It's just that my dirt pedals are noisy (Timmy and Fuzzrocious Demon) and I have a lot of electronmagnetic interference in my garage... I'm thinking that a noise gate may be the best way to go at this point...

[@pedalguru89]

I see. It could be some kind of signal going through your pickups like radio waves or something. Have you tried using separate wall warts for each overdrive? It could be a bad outlet in your power supply.

[@MonsieurSafari]

Really nice video. Could you tell me, whre in your signal chain the RM is placed?

[@GeetardudexD]

So cool.. Mad tone and sounds

[@ianwijnen2297]

That cab looks really cool! What is it?

[@icarius13oo]

fantastic demo

[@trb198330]

This is my favorite pedal ever... so freaking awesome...

[@guifcunha]

What's the name of the song at the beginning? Great riff!!

[@sheakimbrough]

I think something that should be added is that you can control the pitch knob via an expression pedal. That was my favorite part.

[@nicozedled]

ehi Andy, at the minute 1:57 with which pedal you produce that oscillation?

[@cfoscoop]

I would presume the Rainbow Machine.

[@nicozedled]

Ok! This had understood. But the minute 1:57, to create that sound also uses some other pedal. It 'a wonderful oscillation !!! Surely you hear the big sky and rainbows machine but then what?

[@carlosjm2091]

This is so cool!

[@lorenzschreiner2542]

where did you got this awesome tele from?!?! i love it

[@sytsma.justin]

Andy doesn't have any of this info up anymore but if I recall correctly, it's a partscaster that he's swapped out stuff over the years on.

[@Muhomorten]

Great work, man! Really!!!!!!

[@the5chord]

This is awesome

[@kirkanderson6640]

what's that slicer at 3:05?

[@ChrissV234]

how'd you get the oscillation without the pitch bending?

[@SawyerHildebrandt]

Chris Vaughan I need to know this as well!

[@magicalbilly]

Chris Vaughan tune it to unison, turn primary and secondary up, hit the magic and dial in to taste

[@RuntyWilson]

Sweet noise!

[@uliseslozano95]

It would be interesting to see some swells with that pedal lol

[@stagnatic]

I like when the bird says, "rad." Bird has good taste. Great video; more please and thank you.

[@simonlindfors1346]

the outro .. super !

[@totesization]

Pure shoe gaze magic.

[@lionofjudea4146]

Hi Andy, save your knees, get a bean bag :--)... Ok, restart.. Hi Andy, that is some really relaxing music.... very nicely done. :--) I will listen to it as I drift off later. On, the other hand, I like a little boom boom with that acid box, aka "rainbow machine." :--) peace :---)

[@theugene]

So cool

[@areyoujelton]

Let's start a band man. You seem like a guitarist of the same caliber and dissonant interest!

[@kennethgnielsen]

Fun.

[@JayKonopka-crackedfracktal]

plug the rainbow machine into the super ego FX loop

[@frannplaza3195]

Sound like a polychorus in a crazy stage

[@docbobster]

Seek the gnarl!

[@NateBriggs1212]

"I feel like I'm taking CRaZY PiLLZ!?!"
