MicroPitch Delay Meets DB-01 // A Super Straightforward Useable Delay Pedal for Synths

[@cemsema3]

9:00 on was a jam..love it when you find that sweet spot with gear...great work as always man

[@m4rs435]

just like this pedal your channel is super specific, certain videos are totally out of my scope but when u do topics like these i cant help but enjoy the heck outa it. keep doing what youre doing ricky, you have a way of making even a pedal review inspire me i doubt theres anything you cant accomplish here on youtube

[@ly0375]

Deaaaaaamn the final jam is pure lit!

[@superjubs]

omg the jam! the db01 is very tempting

[@IhorMedia]

What a wonderful track, man! Love it ❤️

[@davidc0812]

best demo of this pedal on youtube. Thanks.

[@SeshwaChickenKebab]

your channel is pure quality. keep it up.

[@paulrowntree2800]

That jam was astonishing Enrique!!! I was right there, in a club. Oh I miss that so much.

[@maximilianfunke6615]

Yessss man, i was thinking the same thing. Had goosebumps for a second

[@Goratek]

Sick sounds dude!

[@64north20west]

Eventide is the real deal. The Time Factor is still relevant 15 years later, but this is state of the art and more straightforward in scope. I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir, especially on this channel.

[@awesomefruitslayer8812]

That jam tho oooh great stuff

[@J-Loe]

Great video man. Thank you

[@dangerbird64]

Great jam!

[@lucacycles8623]

EDIT 15/3/21: It turns out it has MIDI sync, I just couldn't see 'MIDI in' on the pedal in the pictures, but I think it takes MIDI via TRS through the 'expression pedal in'. Looks like it could be a little tedious to set up, but then MIDI often is! So it does look like a brilliant pedal and worth the money then! It's obviously very good - like it sounds incredible, but for that money I'd at least want MIDI clock in... Like if you're into 'sequencing stuff', you're going to want your delay pedal to have MIDI sync - right? Unless you have more than one delay I guess. But it does seem like an oversight. disclaimer: obviously MIDI sync isn't essential and MIDI sync only really gives convenience, I was fine with my non MIDI sync'd delay, just my new (to me!) delay with MIDI sync is very convenient and I'd struggle to justify this sort of money without MIDI sync

[@swst09]

I completely agree. In the user manual there is a part about setting on/off midi clock, what does that mean?

[@XBH1023]

It supports MIDI clock sync

[@lucacycles8623]

@@swst09 I think I was wrong, I've edited the post

Congrats on the 100k sub by the way, didn't even realise.

[@robinarens]

the outro jam is sick, I would play that in a set!

[@RickyTinez]

Thanks Robin! yea that was a fun one, im glad i caught the recording of it :)

[@djplastix]

What a jam! Fyre for real!

[@RickyTinez]

Hell yea, thank you DJ Plastic! appreciate the support on the membership as well!

[@MisterConscio]

Like always, very inspiring video, even when just talking about gear, very cool jam my dude ; )

[@ffej4202]

Such a wicked jam. Pre jam that bass line reminded me of yaz

[@SteveSatori]

Tight jam at the end there!!

[@serenemachine9110]

I've been trying to figure out what my next delay pedal will be. After watching your video and looking up the price on Sweetwater this is a contender for sure. Nice video as always.

[@siccavicca]

Yo RICKY MY MAN “That some funky ass sheeet bro fo real “. Really kool clip..tnx

[@BlackSignal]

Hey Ricky, will you do an indepth vid on the e-RM Multiclock? There's so little out there on it. I'm having difficulty setting up in Ableton and sending program changes. THANKS!!

[@suitandtieguy]

I need one of these for everything in my rig

[@EleniEliades_]

You be DOIN' IT Ricky-T !!!🔥🙉💥🌌🐾

[@serenemachine9110]

Ok I had to make another comment lol. That jam at the end, to quote Jay Jay Walker, is Dy No Mite!!!

[@SnaFOo75]

nice one, quique

[@Muovinen]

This is the kind of unsexy pedal that doesn't make your pants wet but will transform the space and feel of your mixes.

[@danvandal4127]

The Strynon Deco is the same in this regard.

[@RickyTinez]

yea it almost feels more like a chorus to fatten basically anything up. similar to doing the HAAS effect but with more control over it. Especially since its Stereo!

[@Sharon-music]

So good

[@johnwhitmore2531]

Not really related to this video, but I had a question that I thought this might be a good place to air. I've been thinking of getting into modular synths and there's a lot of stuff out there on what you need, to get up and running with a few modules. But what people don't talk about is mini performance. Let me explain that. If you were going away for a weekend with a few friends and you played the acoustic guitar you're self contained. You can whip out an acoustic guitar and play a few songs. It's more cumbersome with an electric guitar or Bass, but there are small Wattage Amps readily available. Unfortunately neither a Guitar Amp or a Bass amp are going to have the frequency range available to Synths. So what you obviously need is a PA System, but the PA systems I've seen are really for real 'performance' in a small venue, rather then sitting around with a few friends. Guess you just have to go with small studio monitors and suitable amp, oh and small mixing system if you have a few synths. Everything is the bluetooth these days. maybe there's a euro rack bluetooth module I've missed There are great small modular systems like 'Modular on roof' kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGa9YYVvebhnq5I but they seem to use headphones, which is perfect what you're sitting on your own on a roof, but...

[@mvsr990]

For a good battery powered amplification source, the Yamaha THR10 in 'flat mode' works great - it's basically a 2x3" PA speaker (with some built in effects).

[@Krikorparis]

so there is no a way to make it self oscillate??? that is really a bummer because it is one of the most interesting part of machine such as the H910/H949 or AMS-SDMX.

[@justinsims6801]

Yyyoooooo, some of these effects methods remind me of some of the sounds on the bass lines from your ep “Deci”. Would you ever be interested in doing a video diving into some of your tracks? Like your sounds synthesis and how you built the song.

[@williamratcliffe7833]

Can I use this as a standard pitch shifter? For example, if I wanted to go from E to F with only the wet signal on?....Or, simulating a capo, in simpler terms.

[@grahamcase]

What is the stand you've got for the modular/octatrack (I think that's what that is)? Looks super!

[@dangerbird64]

I was about to ask this question, too. What stand is that?

[@DavidZisa]

Looks like a laptop stand holding the modular with one of those ikea stands in front of it.

[@thefoxfamily341]

Yes Ikea i was there today an find the same!

[@goodnoyz]

has Ricky ever done a comparison video of the Erica and Avalon Basslines or just given his general opinion about the two units?

[@RutgerVos]

14:00 or thereabouts sounds like it could be the chariot brand

[@RickyTinez]

ooooo hell yea, i need to do some more chariot traxx!

[@MrMarcLaflamme]

Would have been nice to have the envelope follower to duck the delay signal.

[@BFBeast666]

Am I a heretic for being super-happy with my Valhalla plug-ins?

[@GertBoers]

I guess that audible click (when you push the top-right button) is picked up by your microphone?

[@beepboop4846]

Sidenote, any chance at a circuit tracks video? Impulsively bought one and I love it, but I know I'm only scratching the surface

[@Metasfera]

You read my thoughts Bro, i also want to try some fancy pedal. But please tell what this little voodoo mask stands for?)

[@tompuce84]

Yea the pedal is cool, but am I the only one who's more interested in the modular patch ? ;p

[@sussvarman]

tired: Chemex Brewing wired: *D A W l e s s C o f f e e*

[@intergrippo3779]

Been looking at the db-01 since it came out. Ordered once, then cancelled. Should I ?

[@beepboop4846]

I'm only half way through the video.....and I need it

[@BreakzTerrorist]

Can you make a review of effect that is not in the price of good synth actually?

[@alpayg.9778]

I guess I’m buying the DB-01 then 😂

[@RickyTinez]

ahaha! it is a ton of fun. i wish there was a way to live play notes in though, that's my only "con" with it

[@alpayg.9778]

@@RickyTinez I can look past that I think ;) I’ll just sequence it externally. That thing sounds awesome !

[@topofthemornintoya]

Please bandcamp the jam. I would like to play! Or stems/remix comp 👊🏻

[@tommyg5095]

Hey EarthQuaker Devices... Take Ricky's observation for this pedal's shortcomings, add your flavor, add your magic, make a pedal for us, hell, even go all out and give us a sequencer that we all really want, you can do it.

[@boymatmat]

bpm of the jam?

[@GiantPupil]

Wait... are those new glasses?

[@hendrikboser8238]

Nice

[@damienwebb3689]

Are we hearing the direct audio from the eventide or is there further processing?

[@TheDrawingMonkey]

Sweet

[@EnochDark]

Cool but why not just get a Pitch Factor instead?

[@benseguin804]

Gave me some chemical brothers vibes!

[@marcosrotllan]

I prefer the erica fusion box

[@GruffBillyGoat]

I own no hardware synths and thus no need for pedals, but I stick around for the end jams anyway - and *god damn* am I glad I did!

[@squoblat]

Damnit Ricky, I'm going to have to ban myself from your channel. I already can't afford the last cool thing you completely sold me on haha.

[@futur_sunds]

Can you do more jam videos? Not that these aren't great, I just like watching your jams because I think it's cool to see how other people make music

[@graysynther2169]

15mins in …sounding very 808 state remix,,nice🤔

[@alexwestconsulting]

Looks like a meeblip triode

[@zooblestyx]

It's an eventide, so try and think of a reasonable price and then multiply it by about 3. =P

[@Sousless]

Is there anything new compared to Pitchfactor? Seems like just one of the algorithms taken out of Pitchfactor and sold for half price of it. Looks better just to get Pitchfactor.

[@mvsr990]

Half price, easier to power with a standard pedal board PSU, takes up less room

[@MusicFed]

Yes.... doesn’t the pitchfactor do a lot more? Like A LOT more

[@MusicFed]

@@mvsr990 price wise you easily can get a used pitchfactor for the same price

[@Sousless]

@@MusicFed It has 9 more algorithms. More knobs, more presets.

[@MusicFed]

@@Sousless yes - but aren’t there any new features the micro pitch has that the pitchfactor hasn’t?

[@Savvier]

Microcosm is on your shelf

[@night_speed]

I love pedals and synths and new gear as much as the next guy but I'm starting to get tired of the fact that every couple months it seems there's a new reverb or delay that just blows away every other reverb or delay out there. There was the Microcosm no wait the Empress reverb is better but then there's the Echosystem. Strymon is worse. Big Sky, Blue Sky, Night Sky. Now Eventide is taking single algorithms out of their Timefactor and Space pedals, charging $300 and the excuse is always "easier user interface". When really they realized they made a mistake and could've made more money making 20 different pedals at 300 each instead of 4 at 500 each.

[@xplo8554]

I like how you wrote ‘no wait’ Instead of deleting the text and correcting it. Very interesting

[@locotek]

I don’t really understand pedal hype.. I’ve got a bunch of options and now that CPUs can chain a bunch of VSTs in sequence without struggling ..can’t say I’d truly miss any if I had to get rid of them.

[@night_speed]

@@locotek yeah i have an Oceans11 reverb, Obscura delay and a handful of TC Electronics.chorus, delay, reverb and looper. The only thing that has come close to piquing my interest is the Empress Zoia. But even then I'll wait for a used eurorack version to hit Reverb.com. I think I'm good for now.

[@AndrewBeveridge461]

This is far less ugly than the "Rose" delay they made recently. Holy smokes that thing is just gross looking.

[@cougarman8]

I love how it looks. Looks different than my other pedals!
