Montreal Assembly - Count to Five

[@stingray1irwin0]

I have two younger brothers. the middle one was hired to hand solder the connections inside these beauties, and the youngest now has one in his pedalboard when we play in our band together. life is strange and beautiful.

[@nathanrobertschultzmusic2609]

Im a musician who get very overwhelmed because i have high functioning autism. A lot of your demos are really creative and soothing, and i really appreciate them. Quarantine and not being able go to work or gig have been hell. I really appreciate some peace.

[@nathanrobertschultzmusic2609]

Greenland Santiago It gives me something to focus on, so its not that bad. And in addition, my, “coworkers,” are typically a tight knit group of people who know me well. That helps a lot of times. What i have is a somewhat mild version, of what used to be called Aspergers. Its just enough to be a pain in the ass. But being out in a noisy, crowded venue(like in the crowd) tends to wear me out. A lot of times id just step outside where the smoke break crowd is if its getting too much and i’ve been polite to fans already. If im, “watching,” a band its a little different. If they’re not very good, they’re not friend’s of mine, and its crowed, i might dip early. Going out can wear me out, so i find myself asking if its worth it. When you’re diagnosed as an adult, like me, there’s not too much to be done besides counseling and managing it yourself.(at least, thats what i was told when i finally sought help) So i do a lot of working around it, and realizing i don’t think like everyone else. Typical straight jobs never worked for me( ive been fired for, “being weird”) but live music seems to work for me. I find it very fulfilling and i obsess over it. When i look for a day job anymore, i try to find similar traits. Thanks for asking man! A lot of people ask me that.

[@xavier7666]

These videos make me happy in a way I don't quite understand.

[@pookievanderbilt6889]

Well said. I don’t understand it either. It’s comforting in some odd way

[@seanclydecorry1262]

Dear whoever does these Knobs videos, They are truly amazing. One part indie film, one part guitar pedal demo. Like... really freaking awesome. Please make more content. I'm sure they must be a metric fuckton of work, but they are truly astounding. I wish all gear demos were of this ridiculously high quality. Love, Some dude in the KZbin comments section.

[@Knobs]

Hey thanks man! Gosh.

[@TheSunshineGroup]

Knobs like really I'll start throwing money at you if that's cool. Also can we just like chill because you must be cool

[@Knobs]

The Sunshine Group Heck yeah. Hey, and very cool KZbin channel. Those Bedrone sessions are really nice. Reach me here: [e-mail]

[@jgmusicman2281]

I agree with this sentiment wholeheartedly

[@pidgeo202]

Yip, best vids ever. I cant stop wathcing em. Make me all warm n fuzzy :) Make more stuff knobs. Your melodies are sweeet

[@lukaspx6089]

after watching this video, i know even less about this pedal than before. awesome video

[@Lupocide]

My neighbour keeps pigeons. Will this device allow me to allow me to interfere with their in=built navigation systems?

[@Knobs]

It absolutely will. Send all of them here.

[@Lupocide]

Look east at dawn on the winter solstice. They are coming.

[@Zuni7712]

The pigeons ended up at my house...and they shat all over my car

[@SpikeSmeagol]

this is my new favorite channel on youtube. Clever, witty, informative, and entertaining. You guys and gals at Knob should be very proud

[@SpikeSmeagol]

Knobs*

[@Tazzlyn]

I want to hug whoever made this video.

[@Knobs]

*hug*

[@ranennowlin5583]

I'm still not completely sure what this does, but I like it.

[@brayangurrola9015]

I don't know if the pedals you demo are actually good or you just make the videos too awesome ...

[@noahrockson]

This is so beautiful, I need to pick one up when I get money. I love how the reverse guitar almost echoes having a violin or something in the background, it sounds difficult to master but extremely versatile otherwise.

[@TheSunshineGroup]

I've heard these sounds in my head and was working to find a way to have a pedal built for me. Someone already did it. Damn. But thank jesus at the same time I can't wait to buy one of these freaky things

[@Dorito1080]

Bizarre. Quirky. Innovative. Amazing. These words describe this video and that awesome pedal!

[@xXsyndicate]

You made me buy this. I almost forgot this pedal exists until I saw this.

[@dnm555x]

i smile every time i watch your video. best guitar pedal youtube channel ever

[@robertwest9643]

You're REALLY making everyone else look bad.

[@kelvinpanesar6511]

Dear Knobs!!! Do you not understand that I can actually blow away my entire retirement funds and life savings on these effects pedals that you continue to review without thought to the potential financial devastation that would incur??? Didn't think so!!! (Sorry for the sarcasm!!...... I just love you guys!! Keep up with your awesome work!!)

[@Nophera]

4:20 favorite part of the video sounds amazing

[@olivedotcomm]

noice

[@joshhajduk640]

This is perhaps the best Pedal demo video I've ever seen. Great work and it sounds awesome. I'm afraid I'll be eaten by birds, though.

[@drkam6]

They finally created a Revolution 9 pedal - Amazing.

[@calebkallander4063]

drkam6 number 9.. number 9.. number 9..

[@bunkbeds4920]

HOLY CRAP! That’s exactly what I was thinking

[@stockholm1752]

Love your demos! Very informative, imaginative and fun. This pedal is right up my street. Thanks.

[@strangefruits265]

Definetely the best pedal trial channel I've ever seen. I could sense the passion & love behind every bits of this video. This is a piece of art. All my respect!

[@CatBoxCustoms]

This might be the best pedal demo ever made.

[@victoreijkhout6146]

Man, this video is like a work of art.

[@DorGuzman]

This is the 10th time I'm listening to it in its full. CAN'T GET ENOUGH!

[@Momointvland]

I drooled so hard over this. OMG. I am now on a new quest to attain this pedal. Jesus.

[@adumbberg]

This guitar pedal demo made me cry. Thank you.

[@laya1618]

Umm I still dont get how this pedal works. Do you record 4-5 different snippets and store them to loop around later?

[@MrTeamcatfish]

Lovely video. What kind of watch are you wearing?

[@thefakemikecurry]

this demo and pedal feel like coming home again. eagerly excited for more of yr videos!

[@brianpatrick6102]

This demo and pedal are full blown Grover! I love it. Hugs? Hugs.

[@Knobs]

*hugs*

[@calebkillianmusic]

@5:14 is like my favorite thing I've ever heard.

[@LeCCComte]

Love your videos and your humour. Make thousands of them please.

[@chuquiii]

Who are you people? All your personality problems are welcome? This is pure art

[@nathanschneider1805]

Is this different enough from the Wizard of Pitch to justify having both? I've seen the two pedals come up together in discussions, so thought they might be the same "genre". (We don't have to tell Scott or Ben either way).

[@locomonk]

This pedal is amazing. You folks are amazing.

[@TheGrandMaster896]

So I've watched all of your videos and now I feel like a wizard. Much magic. Do you have any recordings of full songs??? Or suggestions to ones who may sound like this????

[@Beerpianoandagirl]

The best pedal review videos!!!! Waiting for more...I love my MXR carbon delay pedal, I would like to see it in your video!!

[@allmyfriendsarempegs]

I just pre-ordered this pedal purely based on this review. ove the videos.

[@Th0rZ666]

I love this pedal, i have no use for it but your video makes me want to buy one!

[@HamburgerMolester]

Im glad I got really baked before watching this. Was not expecting humor. Now I have to see more videos from this channel 😂

[@odmenc]

reminds me Frusciantes' Niandra Lades album

[@mrtumnusmusic]

Great to see you treat mental health with the careless humour it deserves. Many thanks.

[@thomasrose7713]

Best product demo ever 👏🏻👏🏻

[@TheSummersProject]

Where can I buy this pedal?

[@seventyeight23]

The pedal's great. Loving your videos man. Very refreshing!

[@alexanderaultman]

I would love to purchase one of these pedals, but I can't find a place to do that on the site. I looked on ebay, and there are some used ones that are going well over $300, but I'd rather buy from the source.

[@robertvogel9460]

Best reviews on youtube.

[@mixschrecks3839]

I keep coming back to this video. So beautiful. Would you mind reviewing the newer version with the 3 switches? And maybe include some volume swells/ less plucky? Love your content no matter what.

[@geartweaker8518]

I don't think I've seen this channel before...subbed now

[@flynn_22]

Love you're ambient style the best one is the avalanche run demo

[@maxxwellblake]

Amazing video - does anyone know if you can stil buy this, or a similar pedal?

[@deafrider]

Sometimes count to five is on stock. I've bought mine in December 2020 mtlasm.com/product/count-to-5/

[@L3_D3zma]

Can someone please tell me which pot values work best for the expression pedal input on the CT5?

[@gabriellewis2452]

What song/chord progression are you playing 1:24?

[@effectsjunkie8530]

This video probably helped sell some units for sure.

[@davidjoel5606]

This appears to be a hell of a device with some definite creative potentiality! A piece of equipment to assist you in travels to a wild universe beyond the realms of this one!

[@claypipkin]

wow. i just bought one because of this incredible vid. What kind of guitar / amp was used to make it?

[@City2x]

Cool video. I mean all your vids are. But it feels like the source material is already mangled. I'd love to see demos with live input and some knob twiddling. Because I don't know if the sounds are more the pedal or already prepared sounds,

[@NathanielBraddock]

this video is so brilliant that I am buying the pedal--own nothing like this yet! thank you

[@EnCrypticon23x]

That sound at 4:28 to 4:35 is so magical... Jesus.

[@donavanemily599]

These videos are really creative and appealing

[@thevelocityispurezen]

These oranges are a peeling, too

[@toshioyamada3311]

the pedal is really good, the video is really good.

[@michaelschultz2884]

I love these pedal vids. I can't find you guys on the social medias. Or a website. I want more info on you guys and to follow you guys!

[@Knobs]

Hello Michael Schultz! We have ourselves a fledgling twitter account here:@Knobs_Demos, and Instagram will be up shortly. Also don't hesitate to shoot us an e-mail: [e-mail]. Thanks for taking an interest!!!!!!! We may also have a website in the future maybe!!!

[@TheSkoofus]

I really love this show you put on. My only reservation is that you don't give us links to where we can purchase these pedals! Please! Please do so! Otherwise I this this is a great service and a wonderful thing you're doing here.

[@edwinlueck5753]

This was the most brilliant video, I loled multiple times, thank you!

[@joshgiesbrecht]

I subscribed simply because of this one vid. Genius. Love it

[@krabouiff]

En fait avec sa guitare, ça permet de se transformer en D.Guetta... Mais quel rapport avec la musique ?

[@GillesAndrea]

vous avez une vision bien étroite de la musique monsieur

[@butthemeatwasbad]

Your videos are fantastic.

[@carloscarranza2990]

The video is awesome, I don't see it as a demo or review, cause honestly, for my guitar applications, I do not find it that useful, however, this is a piece of art.

[@BillWalkerGuitarScapes]

Did you pass up a staff writer gig at SNL to do this????????? Lucky us,!!! this is hilarious and musical!!

[@MadeAirbreak]

My head just exploded, so naturally i ordered one.

[@phantompenguin]

I showed the birds part of this video to friends who don't give a shit about guitar pedals, and they loved it. That's how good this is.

[@gitterfidder]

MAKE MOAR FASTER

[@pauldazeley]

Amazing creation......but how can you tell if it's gone faulty?

[@robc9496]

Love. Knobs.

[@morethansunlight]

Probably my favourite :) amazing creativity in every respect!!!

[@timbennett6644]

I love this video... great pedal and even better is the demo.... much better than the standard vidfeo review.... moure please

[@byronvisiado09]

I found this video confusing :(. There's so many sounds going on I can't really figure out what's changing what. Also I'm trying to read all the stuff but it's going by so fast by the time I understand what that means in terms of playing and twisting the knobs they've moved on to another part. I usually like these, but this one in particular is confusing.

[@Teleman76]

Strymon is jealous!

[@64thBuck]

Best. Demo. Ever.

[@YianniKuc]

sHit this is great dudes! what soundscapes! I WANT this with my electric violiN!

[@CaliginousJunk]

I need 49 of these!

[@losservanos]

That's a great way to do pedals reviews, thank you dude ! That's truly amazing !

[@AnimalFactoryAmplification]

This is brilliant. Congratulations! Love this stomper.

[@CLaw-tb5gg]

Interesting, but I can't help but think that the Red Panda Tensor can do fairly similar things but in a much more user-friendly and usable way. One of the few really bizarro pedals that's actually super-useful.

[@casecandy9257]

I LOL'd too many times to count. WTF with the cicada. Dead over here.

[@Gumbo72203]

if any of you guys are looking for real-world applications, Caton Sollenberger from progressive improv rock band The Jauntee uses this a lot now. Look for recent shows on Archive.org to hear this in action. He played it a lot 11/24/17 in Albany, NY and that show will be uploaded soon.

[@deutschewelt5735]

most amazing pedal :)

[@Papadupulous]

Can the videos on this channel be the theme music to my life?

[@Knobs]

Yes please

[@MrThatoneplatypus]

Papadupulous seriously where can I buy this music or stream it or something

[@MrThatoneplatypus]

Knobs do you have a band?

[@icecreamforcrowhurst]

I’ll need to bring this up at the next meeting of Knob Twiddlers Anonymous

[@ryantakach1478]

Holy shit. Sweet pedal. Thanks for the awesome videos dude

[@matthewftinogiannis1644]

your videos are so good

[@khalylehagood3222]

Wtf, did the audio get swapped on this?

[@thomasraven]

This is the only Knobs vid that left me feeling like I truly don't understand a lot of what the pedal is doing. Less poetry slam about birds - more info please.

[@mitchellsloanmusic9658]

thats my birthday party - come to my next one - this one coming up - this year - coming up

[@dannyobrien4991]

You guys know how to make a goddamn pedal demo.

[@ancientmartianunderground]

Best fx since echoplex

[@lesrankin1767]

He might not know it yet, but this thing is absolutely made for Bill Frisell. (On the other hand, he probably already has a few of them..)

[@cyoa4u]

is knobs in a band?

[@BipolarSmile]

Genius reviews!
