Yeah, but man his tone 😱

[@GlenLaForceMusic]

I watch this over and over. The times are amazing. I have the golden starlight Astra Lion and Fender 65. They sound so good with getting quick amazing tones. They make me play more. Thanks for your videos. They inspire me.

I can always count on Bea to make my lunch break more enjoyable.

[@MrRikunaru]

Sometimes I think that glorious fro is just made to be an antenna to find the best frequencies for that sweet sweet tone. As much as I love the indepth stuff you do, a complete rundown like this one sets everything in context and I think thats so important to see ! Well done Sir!

[@tobiaswendl9084]

Your playing is stunning. Wow. And what a tone ...... thanks for your videos.

[@orryfishburne5326]

I would love these pedals but also I want some victory amps to match with them. I would also like to use those pedals as outboard gear. 😁. Your studio rig is amazing and u definitely deserve it. Ur such an inspiration and wickedly talented

[@therangersinger]

Plus one on the victory amps. I have owned a V30 MK2 for 3 years and a V40 for about one year. I love to pile on effects using the FX loops of both in stereo. Absolutely love Victory and speak very highly of them!

13:22 hit and gave me instant Billy Corgan Gish/Siamese Dream-era vibes. Badass playing as usual, Bea. There are few people who can capture such a huge amount of emotion even while casually playing. 🤘

[@surinderpunia2804]

Fantastic demo!!!

[@ashamael]

Bea! Incredible playing as usual, man. One question: could you do a video on how you go about getting a good crunch sound from amps for ambient playing? I can dial in a beautiful clean or the nastiest metal rhythm, but your crunch is just sublime. Cheers, mate!

[@scottbrady4472]

They sound superb...

[@monkeybooby3]

Rabea, could we get a video of just you, the Captain, and Pete jamming? Because you guys have some tasty playing.

[@williamstevens7648]

Its hard to care about the pedals when you play as good as that. I almost forgot this was a pedal demo at times ahahah

[@italoop7850]

A Lexicon PCM80/81 does ALL of this and much more, better sounding and MUCH closer to a 224, with tons of realtime control based on dynamics, MIDI and other aspects... and all working at higher voltages (true line levels).

[@earlludwig3614]

I have a PCM80 and it's my benchmark when considering other reverbs in pedal form, which I'm doing now.

[@italoop7850]

@@earlludwig3614 And have you *really* programmed your PCM, using the patch row to add all the magic?

More ambient tutorials please. Especially using cheaper pedals and an amp :)

[@kjsebestyen]

Rabea: (plugs in....shreds). Me: (plugs into pedal...G-chord....turns pedal knobs....more G-chord) "yep sounds great"

[@carlosm6393]

Man to play guitar with these effects nowadays we are supposed to be rich. 😭

[@vladimirpavlovic9488]

No brother you have some great great sound effects in every budget category nowadays. The only exception to me are those really deep and long ambient reverbs, those cannot be had without paying more... everything else - it is there..

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

Go get some used Boss pedals - the RV-6 and DD-7 will perform more than adequately. Oh, and get a passive volume pedal as well.

[@TheJTM45]

Man............I thought the Reverb pedal sounded amazing and then the Echo/delay kicked in and took it to a whole different level. Absolutely beautiful sounds! Obviously Rabea’s playing contributes a lot to the orgasmic sounds we’re hearing too, lol.

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

The reverb here is amazing.. They all are... But this verb is cxm1978 worthy

[@jackgerrard2390]

Sounds great! I’m surprised they didn’t make a preamp/OD type pedal

[@FireoftheGreeks]

You are well on your way to Buckethead!

[@elizabethstracener583]

This would be awesome to win!

[@MarceloAllendeMusic]

Could you explain how to record stereo effects into the DAW? Wheter with a Loadbox or mics. :) Thank you!

[@kebbinator]

To do it ‘correctly’ you need two amps, and you either put the pedal in the FX loop of both amps or you run your guitar into the pedal and the L and R outs to the amps. Then just record the amps as you normally would. If you only have one amp, you would have to put the stereo effect after the amp. So either after a loadbox on the way in, or if you are micing up you would have to reamp the recorded tone through the pedal. I think Bea puts them through the FX loops and then records the amps direct with load boxes.

[@MesaGuitarGuy]

wow!

[@Neil-Aspinall]

Rabea I feel for ya, the company expects you to move some of these units but with all the good sub 200 and far less pound units out there it's a very hard sell!

[@tonystark9118]

Sounds great what pickups did you decide to keep in the black strat? Can't remember and they sound great as well as your playing! Thanks!

[@austinmidwest7062]

they sound nice, i just don't think they sound like something that i would go for , or something to replace what i already use

[@orryfishburne5326]

Quick question. If you could only choose one, would u choose the UAD Golden, Strymon Big Sky, or the Source Audio Ventress? I want to upgrade my reverb from a TC Hall of Fame 2, but spending 400-500 on a pedal doesn’t allow my budget to try them all. I wish I could catch them all. 🥲

[@chrisdavies9143]

So I currently have a Big Sky and just got the Golden. I've not owned a Ventress but I did have a Collider once which has a lot of the same algorithms. As to your question it depends what you want. The Big Sky does the incredible, performance type reverbs that don't sound natural but are still incredible especially for ambient and soundscape stuff. The Golden doesn't do that stuff but it absolutely nails the more natural reverbs with an incredible clarity that I've only really heard in a Chase Bliss CXM (which I can't afford). The Big Sky does have Spring, Plate, Room and Hall and they're mostly usable but they just aren't on the same level, the Spring in particular isn't that good. So as I say I think it depends what you want it for, what type of music you hope to play. I don't see me replacing the Big Sky or Golden for many years.

[@vladimirpavlovic9488]

If you like ambient - Gfi Specular Tempus. Trust me :) a little less money than those, small size ,great algorithms and you get delay and mixed engines in there too!

[@chrisdavies9143]

I have also owned a Specular Tempus (my Reverb journey has taken in many destinations 😅) and there are some nice sounds in that, the Spatium, Tremble and until the Golden the best Plate 'verb I'd heard in a pedal but ultimately I felt there was more clarity in the Big Sky and I just preferred the tone plus I already have an Echosystem for my delays. I agree though, in terms of form factor, cost, footprint and the fact you get delays too, the Specular Tempus is a great pedal.

[@orryfishburne5326]

@Chris Davies and @Vladimir Pavlovic thanks for the insight and replies. I like playing more ambient styles, but i was also looking for a good natural sounding reverb as well to widen my tonal range. Ive always imagined the Big Sky to be able to nail it all, but thanks for letting me know otherwise. Im going to look into the Specular Tempus some more. Ive seen that pedal around, but ive never really looked into it. Im starting to think i should try to save up for both the Golden for natural reverbs and then another reverb for my ambient tones.

[@user-zv7lm8uk7h]

@@orryfishburne5326 I own all these reverbs, and it depends on what options you need. Ventris can do ANYTHING and sounds better than the Bigsky, much more clear. Golden can do the least of them all but sounds the best I guess. Golden is a bit weird, Ventris has a good pedigree of reverb makers from histroy who worked on it... it is really good.

[@Allann882]

For that reason They're really expensive... Long life Strymon.

[@gonebymidnight2881]

are you running all 3 in front of your amp or in the fx loop? 🙏🏻thanks

[@christopherreeves5272]

Hi ! I was wondering when we here the amps thru the attenuators, are we hearing Irs? Or mic'd attenuated cabs?

[@florisbackx1744]

rProb from the amp straight into the torpedo with IR's, or through the Ox Box.

Can you do the same with Boss pedals is my question.

[@post-man23]

No thanks. There are a couple of pedals out there better and cheaper.

[@therangersinger]

I don't doubt the sound quality on these pedals is really good. But I see nothing special in these pedals. You can get more for less. They fell quite a bit short on these. No midi? Really? Common UA regardless of audio quality and processing power these are rehashed and dumbed down reincarnations of stuff that Strymon and Boss, let alone many others, have perfected over the last 10 years.

[@Iron-and-strings]

It’s about quality audio vs quantity of features. As for me, I’ll take quality any day

[@therangersinger]

@@Iron-and-strings we live in a day and age that the quality of an audio signal from a digital device can't actually get "better". The algorithms used to produce the particular characteristics of the reverb type are what is drawing you in. It's not that it any better. It's just newer. And honestly just because it does one thing great doesn't mean they couldn't have programed several other great reverbs into this pedal. And have presets recalled by midi. If you are set and forget kind of player I can easily see this being a go to reverb for some. But at that price it could have been designed with a bit more flexibility.
