Interview with Jamie Stillman at home in his basement where he has his insane vintage pedal collection. But it's also where EarthQuaker Devices as we know it today began. Jamie Stillman takes you through the entire story, while I mix it all with images from his crazy gear collection and scenes from EarthQuaker Day 2018. This was a true highlight of my life. Something I will never forget.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Sorry for the slightly blurry images at times. It's dark in a basement, you know. So my camera would go out of focus at times. But if you're a nerd like me, you will devour everything Jamie has to say anyway

Blew my damn mind when he pulled out the Morning Dew. I think I made about 150 of them in 2006 - 2007. Great to hear my work inspired him!

For all my guitar life I have had a Boss Compressor Sustainer pedal on my board. So I always thought "meh...I got the CS-2, I am good, no need to go anywhere else" and that was it. Then I was at a clinic at Sam Ash on a Saturday and one of the other students had his little board and he had The Warden Optical compressor. I just casually inquired about it and he said that it was his "secret weapon". I asked if I could try it out and plugged into it. Holy shit, this is the most musical pedal I have ever heard. It takes your tone and makes it sound like you're in a studio. It is $200 but oh so worth every penny. I still have the CS-2, it's just in a drawer now. Take my advice: Just get one. You can come back here to thank me.
@thepedalzone
@thepedalzone 6 жыл бұрын
The Warden is so criminally underrated, it's insane! Think it's because EQD are more known for making more spacey/otherworldly effects, and that makes people disregard a humble compressor in their lineup. But it's 100% my favorite compressor. Just makes everything sound better ❤

EQD do everything so well. One of my favourite pedals of theirs is actually their The Warden Compressor. It's so damn underrated because it lives far from the wild experimental and otherworldly nature that so many of their other pedals contain. I just think it's cool that a company is equally adept at making allround bread-and-butter effects as well as crazy innovative special fx ☺

I think the Arpanoid is an amazing pedal. As a bassist however, I do wish the pedal had a tap tempo function so the arpeggiator could sync perfectly with the music. 😎

Amazing video as always Stefan! What an great interview-perfect length, great mix of history/personal/professional--really showcased Jamie's passion for what he's so lovingly created. Oh- and your soundtrack reminded me I gotta grab the wet-only switch for my Plus Pedal- you tackled that beast yet? despite its imperfections-I think its my favorite pedal ever-and not to sound like a new age guru but it's worth can only really be experienced not explained.

oh man, especially for a lover of ambient playing...the Plus really is in a league of its own. Being a big EHX Freeze guy I was stoked on the simple sustain aspect of it but it is SO DEEP. The layering of notes into chord structures, the efx loop, the rise and tail control- It really is an extension of your instrument, really intuitive and expressive. haha- you're gonna have a field day with it- i can't wait to hear/see you review. It was made for folks like us who just simply - love sound.

What an incredible collection of gear. EQD is such a cool brand, I must finally get my hands on some of their pedals, especially their reverbs (Afterneath, Transmisser, Avalanche Run) look and sound really amazing in all the demos. And I'm still hoping for an Arpanoid with tap tempo :)
