That's the whole trouble with versatile pedals. Mentally-speaking, when I use a pedal: I step on it = it does "it's thing". One foot, one pedal - one thing. Not "one pedal, many things." Mess with that basic principle and you mess with my head.

I have one. As soon as I saw the kickstarter campaign I ordered it. This little box is absolutely phenomenal. The range of sounds available is almost without limit. It should be pointed out that each one of the sections on the mood knob is also variable. So once you hit a certain section and start going clockwise the clipping changes even within that section of the mood knob. The EQ section is unparalleled on any other pedal I have ever tried and I've tried a ton. And I will tell you, it Stacks beautifully with an overdriven amp. Or another Drive pedal. The heavier tones are impressive but this thing really shines low to medium gain. And as a clean boost it is absolutely unmatched.

@@smelltheglove2038 I mean yeah you can use it for that. And that is one of the big things people try to sell it on. But, I don't use it for that. I use it to craft unique Drive tones. Plus with the preset switch you can swap between two different Unique Sounds. So when the guy emulated the king of tone he could have done it on both sides. By saving a preset and then setting another one. Plus you have 127 more slots if you use a midi controller. Plus it's got that crazy 30 volt push mode. Which I haven't tried out yet. And I'm not real clear on how it's supposed to work. On top of that the EQ ability on the pedal is a lot more detailed than most. But yeah I don't use it to replace other Drive pedals because it will imitate them. Each one of those areas on the mood knob is also variable within that section. So you've got almost unlimited clipping possibilities

For someone who wants a single pedal to do a bunch of overdrive sounds, but who doesn't already have all those pedals to use for comparison, I think it would be helpful for a product like this to have pre-loaded presets or maybe a user's guide that lays out how to get close to those tones. For example, dial it in like this to approximate a Bluesbreaker, dial it like this for Tubescreamer, etc. Then you'd obviously have to adjust to taste and for your specific rig. Pretty cool bit of tech.

I used a Boss OD-200 for a while. It has 12 overdrive/distortion options including the original Boss OD circuits (OD, BD, etc) and emulations of others (like screamer, klon, brown, etc). It also provided controls to set up and adjust and tune the presets; and you could store the resulting changes into memory. There was also a way to stack/combine effects but I never mastered it. In the end I gave up on it and just went back to having standalone pedals on my board (screamer, ODR-1, klon clone, etc). The mutli-effects pedal was super powerful and provided a ton of features, but the amount of time I had to spend fiddling with it to get the tones I wanted was oppressive (in my opinion). And especially when playing live, it is just so much easier for me to be able to just quickly (and obviously/clearly) change from a screamer tone to an ODR-1 tone with two pushes of a toe... to suit the song we're playing at that moment. I'm not a ludite; and I am impressed with these multi-effects boxes-and this new one looks like an intriguing evolution of others already available-but I just find them too 'fiddly' and time-consuming for my purposes.

Great vid! I'm glad there are folks out there that are still innovating, while embracing the analog heritage...I'm using both modellers (as my amps and reverb/delays in a box) and analog drive & modulation pedals and I love it.

My thoughts exactly. Having checked their official site before watching this vid made me sceptical. The name, the marketing-speak (rolled my eyes at "augmented analog") and the sleek almost Apple-like look.. But I gotta admit, it's pretty innovative. And most importantly: it did sound great and pretty much just like the originals Paul had there. However I agree: I like to see at a glance where I am and how my pedals are set. I guess I could get used to working with the Kernom, but I'm not ready to fork over that amount of dough just yet and sell my other overdrives. (BTW this also reminded me of the Line 6 DM-4 I used 20 years ago. Back when I couldn't play yet and digital was a dirty word :D )

Mine arrived this week - I thought my search for a MIDI cabable drive pedal was over... Unfortunately the Ridge has one little flaw if you want to save and recall presets by MIDI. Once you saved a preset, you can no longer adjust it. Say you recall a preset, and it's to loud for the mix in the band. You CANNOT adjust the volume or any other knob of that preset. You have to build the sound from scratch. Your band mates will love you for that. Other than that, this pedal is incredibly great!

The Oscilloscope section was very interesting. It would've been quite interesting to see how closely the Ridge mapped the waves of the pedals you were replicating. I'm not at all clued in the science of audio tbh... but presumably that would also illustrate how close this pedal comes to mimicking others at least for the settings dialled in on that pedal at THAT time. And assuming that is true, I think it would've been an interesting test, then again perhaps that's just me. 😂 That said if it sounds close perhaps that's all that matters. But given how quickly you were able to dial some tones in I guess you had some sort of cheat sheet or spent some time beforehand trying to replicate the KoT or the TS.

@@dries7547 This is the information I was wondering about. Yes I get that measuring on an oscilloscope is only a single frequency. and stringed instruments have a range of frequencies and harmonic overtones. It's a snapshot, in the same way a Kemper Profile is a snapshot of an amp with those settings and whatever pickup was used to refine the profile. But I think your second point addresses my curiosities. I assume you're saying that just because a particular component / pot performs a particular way in one circuit, it may not necessarily have the same degree of effect on another frequency when it is part of another circuit? Presumably that would come down to a variety of reasons be the specific component used, the various tolerances and variances within those etc. Probably a lot of factors beyond even that. Maybe I'm thinking to granularly with that assumption though. Thanks for your response! It's obviously something I'm not well versed in whatsoever so I'm happy to learn something new.

@@dries7547 Oscilloscopes show the wave form fluctuating over time, not a single moment. I agree that it’s difficult to use an oscilloscope to analyse multiple frequencies simultaneously, though not impossible if you focus on two or three frequencies that are indicative of a wider sound characteristic and display them on parallel screens/images above one another, or superimposed.

Currently I have a Tubescreamer with Keeley Mod, a Flyrig 5 V2 with Sansamp, and i just bought an MXR 10 Band EQ. Should I get rid of all those and just get the Kernom Ridge ? I’ve been searching for a tone like this pedal offers, and I haven’t yet tried the MXR 108S. What would you do ? I’m talking to you out there, all you pedal junkies and holy grail tone-seekers. Much appreciation for any help.

This reminds me of my Creation Audio Labs 'Holy Fire', it uses an internal computer to stimulate changes to the wave form and then converts back to analog.

Here is my thoughts on the price of this new entry in overdrive; for 300 euros it is able to duplicate the Analogman KOT sound which for a used pedal is running between 700 and 1359 USD on Reverb/Ebay. Then an Ibanez TS-808 runs about 180 USD from Sweetwater Sound. Now for a real Klon Centaur authentic pedal if you can find one will run you between 5500 and 10k USD used and while the Ridge did not replicate the exact tone it did come close making it well worth the asking price. To duplicate 1500 USD worth of overdrive pedals with 100% accuracy means that there is 1100 some odd bucks you can spend on a midi control pedal, an amp, or possibly a new guitar. Its value is in its versatility and ability to clone other very popular signal paths without having to purchase an entire pedal board; instead you need the ridge and a midi control to access your presets for different tone and gain patches. So in theory if you have 450 to 500 dollars invested in making the Ridge you sole overdrive you are still over 1k ahead of the game for not having to dish out 1300 for the KOT and 200 for the TS-808 nevermind if it can duplicate a Strymon, Fender Blues Breaker, and other popular amplifier overdrive signals all from one unit; the savings just keep adding up and in an age where digital replication has become the standard goto it is nice to see this level of versatility in sound shaping from an analog unit. Just my opinion.

Very nice demo of it! As you said, I agree that you don't need to stack anydrive anymore thanks to the presets, just dial in two (or more via MIDI) different drive sounds and switch between them. BTW why don't you replace ALL your drives with this only one switching between maybe 5 preset with the MIDI function of your gigrig? ^^

Great video! I use a a low wattage tube amp and a power soak which is more pleasing to my ears. I think it’s related to the sine wave clipping but effects pedals make playing the electric guitar unpleasant for me. I actually get anxious and annoyed when I use one.

Awesome, well done them! But... what If I wanted to stack drive pedals? Maybe I could just compare the Kernom tone to the stacked tone, and have that and the tones of the two separately as presets... Hmm, now I'm wondering how it would compare to the Automatone!

I would have to try it. There's one thing people don't talk much when reviewing an overdrive pedal. That's the touch sensitive and dynamic side. How it feels when is played. Some of the best ones like the Kot is extremely touch sensitive and dynamic. The klon has a fast response attack. That's the point where I have left some drives. How is this one? Is the dynamic the same of those classics? Kind Regards

thanks for the great review!!! this thing would be bonkers if it'd have like 3 to 4 presets. with the current setup , taking 2 dirt pedals for live use takes the same amount of real estate....so at this point unfortunately it would apply more to ppl with big boards, midi controllers etc. I hope they'll do an update. stepping thru like 4 presets could be a very live-friendly solution. also may I ask, does it clean up well, like a church of tone or good fuzz when You dial it into that territory? cheers.
