The Meris LVX Delay Pedal Is a Game Changer

[@willowbankworkshop]

I know we are supposed to be listening to the pedals, but every-time you guys put out a video I am like "Holy shit, that is literally the best sounding drum kit of all time" 🤯

[@jhspedals]

💪🏼

[@NicholasGnames]

lol I was scrolling the comments as they talked this whole time but now they've manned the drums and I hear what you are saying.

[@gregoryney5680]

It's clear that pedals also make the best diffusers... so YET ANOTHER reason to buy 50 more.

[@Thomas-zf6sl]

I Love the Energy of this vid with the nonsteady camerawork it kinda gives me "dads Not home Kids go crazy" vibes and i Love it, Loved the Show before but this feels fresh and Young and amazing!

[@rhesreeves5339]

That last jam was amazing! The "organy" tone Was RAD. This may be my all time favorite! Seriously, great.job!

[@Dave_Sacca]

I find the music you ALL create on this channel, WAY more enjoyable than everything that won at the Grammys, or everything on the charts.

[@Paul-dw2cl]

but Bonnie Raitt and ABBA are pretty good

[@Dave_Sacca]

@@Paul-dw2cl you got me there. I guess I was caught up in the great music.

[@fortheloveofnoise]

@@Paul-dw2cl ABBA is torture music.

Stereo 2023. JOSH CAN'T HOLD US DOWN ANYMORE.

[@cartoonvillains7080]

Good to have you back guys! Hope you enjoyed your break. Well done Meris on an amazing pedal!

[@Pianet]

Awesome to see you guys in stereo finally. It really is the coolest. Now make some stereo pedals. A JHS voiced dirt pedal in stereo would be super awesome!! sincerely, a keyboardist

[@tonyplaysbass6535]

God it’s great to have you guys back. Glad you took a break, you deserve it. But you were missed. Great first video back. Cheers!

Well, in one épisode you wrote the best U2 compositions since Achtung Baby. Love You, greetings from french Alps 🖤

"Atypical" was awesome, guys! Thank you for the fun & music. That Universal Audio Dream looks very cool, too.

[@jeffburnham4582]

I love this episode! Stoked to see you having so much fun and creating such killer vibes.

[@78awhite]

That 5th place jam was sick! This show is a lot of things... a place for great jams is one of them... they are always top notch. Love you peeps.

[@rinseyvessel6523]

You guys are getting so comfortable doing this stuff. And your musicianship is going off the charts!

[@DrJeebles]

I wouldn't know what to do with that pedal, but you guys sound amazing on it. Welcome back to the interweb, the JHS Show!

[@alexandergilbert7613]

It's been to long since I've heard that intro music! So hyped y'all are back!

[@jhspedals]

Thank you!

[@VOTrainer]

I keep coming back to this video to listen to 5th place. I wish this was a full song. Holy fuck it’s so good

[@jhspedals]

🖤🖤🖤

[@merrilltingey597]

You guys sounds incredible on this! The drums are especially awesome sounding. Love the playing from you both on this one. Thanks for the upload!

[@WillDeutsch]

I love these two... they are clearly having a lot of fun! Odelay is an amazing album. It came out of left field when it was released - it was so different than anything out there at the time.

[@PedalChainsAddiction]

I’m with you on ‘Odelay’… what a genuine masterpiece. Good to have you back!

[@harleymckinley1181]

that 5th place jam was very american football-esc, loved it

[@thewatersofdream]

Epic, love the Jams , love the sense of humor, you guys rock .

[@obsoletecd-rom]

Great mixing on the drums. The snare sounds killer.

[@diodesDankessAndDives]

Yall're having so much dang fun and I will always come back to kick it. I'm super happy youze guyz are back

[@robertlopez5833]

Man, watching your videos makes me love music and pedals more and more! Thanks for every second of this !

[@tomshoptaw2412]

Weirdest timing ever- home sick- took the LVX out for the first time. Was blown away and then saw this video- Erie coincidence or everything happens for a reason? Agree with them- LVX has changed my mind/life! Inspiring- my new fav!!!

[@jhspedals]

Synchronicity!

[@DrBadLlama]

The EQ on these jams is so underrated.

[@GoodOlTahj]

for real - I wish they'd do an episode on their mixing. I wish my drums could sound that good

[@harrisfrankou2368]

So true...I think it's Addison...I've seen him at a board.

[@jhspedals]

Thank you!

[@PedalChainsAddiction]

Seriously. Wondering if a lot is run through a Colour Box? Based on the Colour Box episode, I’d say the drums usually are?

[@harrisfrankou2368]

That's on my list, it's what I need. I think that , a Pulp n Peel and a dedicated modulator/phaser and an Ecorec will do my needs for quite a while.

[@davidholmquist4965]

Man, the Mutemath jam was beautiful. One of my favorite bands and DK is legendary.

[@claymccown]

First two jams were something special, boys. Reminded me of a movie that hasn’t been made but would make me feel inspired and probably cry.

[@SONOMA_VALLEY_TOM]

Pedal sounds absolutely fabulous!

[@ryangilby]

Oh dude the show came back on my birthday! I hope this year we get more Nick and Addison on guitar

[@jhspedals]

Happy birthday!

[@Roxanneredpanda]

Nick's preset sounds absolutely crazy I love it

[@walkercolson765]

Yay they are back! I was starting to buy things that weren't pedals a few weeks ago, but now I addicted again! Yay!

[@jhspedals]

😂

[@beardyrecordbox4069]

This thing sounds siiiiiiick! (Also loved the stereo fx, I won't tell Josh if you don't!)

[@andsoistopped]

So good to have you back.

[@bobmitchell1970]

A JHS Pedals video. I always click the like button to get that out of the way and then watch the video to discover why I liked it in the first place.

[@cosmicbackwoods]

beck is one of the most fun shows ive seen out of hundreds

[@joshcapuano6879]

Man, I loved everything about this video! That ratchet and clank jam looked too fun.

[@j.thornton8390]

So glad you guys are back!

[@jhspedals]

Thanks! Glad to be back :)

[@DecentFarts]

This is A+ content and editing. I like the "The Office/Parks and Rec" cinematography.

[@El...Presidente]

Addison CUZ WTF! Your drumming skills sick my boi!!!!! That ratchet and clank jam 🔥

[@PiPArtemis]

My wife and I have our favorite vinyls on display on our living room wall, so when you guys bring out something that we have up there I know I'm in good hands following your other Record Time recommendations

[@brianvankley3529]

Watching with headphones… this made my week. Thanks, guys. ❤️

[@unfair_potato]

You fellas were amazing! The pedal lust is uncontrollable, it's great to know the background of the company, what a small world - Strymon are crazy-good, but now I have 2 dream pedals, the new Strymon, but this LVX has taken the lead. The "Australia tax", shipping and exchange rates make this a long-term investment

[@GraphiteandCigars]

Glad you guys are back, it was almost like a strange divorce that we reconciled.

[@jhspedals]

lol, thanks!

[@guitarz]

welcome back! thanks god its been so dead even on KZbin the last month

[@xlankex]

That Dream 5th preset.....just awesome.

[@gregrandallbtsr03]

Great as always. The stereo sound was amazing.

[@marcofioravanti4176]

Big like: The mood, the pedal, the jams and... "that" record time choices!

[@ferdinandobarisciano6934]

Ladder Filter is the filter from Moog synths. If you have a low pass Ladder filter it will remove lows when you increase the resonance

[@ELRogerFalcon]

This pedal is the Future. The future is now. Beautiful.

[@SystemOfStrings]

Wow, the Clank one really does sound like there's an organ playing along!

[@RedNK]

Addison is very tasteful in his playing, I always enjoy listening to him play But everything you do is always just amazing Amazing as always JHS!

[@samuelgaiani-porquet8901]

Great review guys! Amazing delay & really funny chats !

[@cortmiller]

I love the lvx. And it also works great as a looper for practicing. And has a tuner. And has a noise gate. It’s just overall great

[@jhspedals]

It's really so amazing.

[@johngpendleton]

Missed you guys. Welcome back.

[@WPAPi3.14]

Thank you for coming back, all of you!!! I went to you channel every day!!!💔

[@ringtone_rhythm]

"Drum off!" *instant cut* Actual gold LMAO

[@IainWisdom]

another great show ...love this channel

[@TheRocketN00b]

It was a long, long January without you guys.

[@matrix12x]

Stank sounds awesome!

[@SuperflyCLB]

Ladder filter means like a Moog style filter

[@nj1255]

The Meris Mercury 7 is by far the best digital reverb algorithms I've ever heard, so I have no doubt that the LVX is at least as stunning. Game changer, indeed.

[@harrisfrankou2368]

Damn that Team is like Doctor Doom Kang and an Evil Reed Richards variant...what a pedal It's great hearing Addison drum to Nick slick grooves ands tasty fills over the ambiance....and edit thanks for the headphones tip!!

[@otnima]

You guys look like you have so much fun, even the cameraman is all in !

[@Samana009]

The name of this pedal is, in fact, "Light". The "V" in Latin is "U" - LUX "loox" = light. LVX also can be the number 55

[@donnyp_]

For the first time I've heard a rhythmic delay in a context I like.

[@CraigCrider]

I know it isn't always lightness and cupcakes but if this is your JOB, it's pretty damn awesome. Color me jealous.

[@jhspedals]

Thank you! We're so fortunate, and that's not lost on us. Thanks for watching!

[@h4ndrix]

Idk how you process those drums but they always sounds so crisp 😩✨

[@bassfingers]

An amazing sounding pedal and the jams were great 🙂

[@travisthornton1792]

“Ladder filter” is a Moog thing. The filter circuit is a chain of low-pass filters with two symmetrical cascades of four transistors, with a capacitor between each pair of transistors, so it looks kinda like a ladder.

[@aceflibble]

Tones are nice. Good to hear you move to stereo, too. (... But it's got top jacks, so it can get in the bin.)

[@jhspedals]

😂

[@bmoklsc]

Mystical invisible bassist brining the invisible 🔥

[@daltonadkins4394]

Shoutout to Nick rocking the B’s Music Shop shirt

[@al271987]

Beck’ Odelay is an absolute classic, good pick. Did you pick it because “delay” is in the album title?

[@Telorchid]

😂 I asked myself the same question.

[@klekrfaqer2114]

Not that I could afford this, but even though the sound is without a doubt out of this world, it's hard to grasp how it doesn't come with an ergonomic desktop app for patch creation. I'm not saying that the onboard user interface would be bad, it's just that nothing really competes with a large display, a keyboard and a mouse when you have this level of complexity squeezed into a box. (My other, but way less important pet peeve is the absence of digital I/O, as I believe many would use it in the loops of Kempers, Axe FXs, Helixs etc. and whereas these all have acceptable AD/DA, there's simply no need for an additional pair of conversion...)

[@chilidogcowboy]

6:15. Pretty darn cool.

[@vikingbluesbreaker729]

Finally, man when the opening theme song dropped i was smiling ear to ear

[@g3cd]

Do I really want to configure my own delay with 99 different presets? This is like windows, where you can change the dropdown color and a zillion other things just "because you can" and some developer has featurerities and just LOVES adding options to a thing. But I would like an "Apple" pedal: one delay, one reverb, maybe a chorus, but even with just a single button, it always sounds GREAT. I never even LOOKED at the twenty-something dip switches of my Chase Bliss Generation Loss MK2.

[@SlowToe]

It's the best pedal ever made.

[@hurrywait]

I was at the Willie/Beck show at Starlight. It was an unexpected bill, and it was *fantastic*

[@dunxy]

I so want Nicks shirt!

[@callowaykehoe]

The pedal is sick and all, however the mixing on the drums is outstanding.

[@gabeatv]

That second note about headphones made me feel like they were being enforced, which contradicted the first note. But yes, it was worth it :).

[@SpaceDisco1]

Can you run us through how you mixed the drums? Always sounds so good.

[@evanward4303]

Odelay is a masterpiece, every track.

[@mr.d.572]

Significantly better than the Boss DD-500?

[@Telorchid]

DD-500 is great and has lots of tweaking capability with assigns. I feel the LVX far surpasses it in terms of multi-tap options, ease of access & general width of the stereo image, and the modular architecture. It also has assigns (it calls them modifiers) that are in some respects more sophisticated but it has fewer of them (2 LFO modifiers as opposed to 8 in the Boss). Also slightly prefer the base tone of the digital delay on the LVX vs the Boss’s ‘standard.’ (I own both.)

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

Yes, they've returned from the grave!

[@jeffmeeks1591]

put it on the kik. It's 6 days in but whatever. Thanks for coming back. Great pedal and video. I don't really like reverb or delay on guitar though. Why does mid range (guitar-vocals-snare) have to go in the cave?

[@SnappyJCM800]

Awesome pedal. Gonna have to try one out. Two questions. Is the towel on the drums to mute it a bit? Question two, where can I find one of those soundtank boards that are on the wall behind the drums. I want one!!

[@jhspedals]

1. Yes 2. You have to search the internet until you find one.

Whaooo that sound on the fist gig (5th place) 😱 !
