TheGigRig Wetter Box

[@edadpops1709]

The fuzz stacking and an expression pedal , very cool.

[@danielhoskins4690]

That is the best original pedal I’ve seen for a long time. So obvious buy never been done like this to my knowledge

[@JonNewquist]

Daniel nailed it with this one, and it really needs the expression pedal. Nicely executed, Andy! I didn't know I needed this - and I really do.

[@PedalboardoftheDay]

Andy, I just discovered your new channel. Can't believe I didn't know until now. I now have something to binge watch this weekend. You're a legend, man.

[@andreweasombentley4703]

Wow, That's such a cool / clever idea.

[@ollie1322]

Thx for the awsome Demo. The Wetter Box is nerdy in a good Way. :o)

[@LiveToPlayGuitar]

I don’t usually buy every pedal I see but when I do they’ve all been demoed by Andy...🎸🔊🎶🤘🏻

[@Necromanos]

Pete Thorn uploaded a video on this at almost the same time as this one. Must mean it's a hella cool pedal.

[@rkharper]

Is this really what you believe?! See it works that way: the companies PAY these guys to advertise their new pedals, and the videos usually apear mostly at the same time. I'm happy to clarify this for you.

[@shinjial]

The final example with the FF and octavia really sold it. Cool little tool.

[@PhilMoseleyMusic]

That is actually pretty cool! Loving the sounds you were getting with this Andy! I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the demo man!

[@narrvick]

WAY BEYOND my skill level to use this to its fullest... but now I feel I have to have it. :(

[@goodnightmediaintl]

DAN IS AN ABSOLUTE GENIUS. Killer demo Andy!!

[@WutipongWongsakuldej]

From what I saw in Dan's video, this device looks like 1->4 channel spliter and 2 channel stereo mixer in one box with a blend knob/expression pedal control how the signal is mixed. Kinda neat idea of signal routing.

[@rareform6747]

What happened of all your channels ? My girlfriend has this and it don't cost that much . .

[@mandrilo43]

I do almost the same thing with a boss ls2, to me the boss ls2 is a highly underrated pedal, and its a great tool for a lot of things like, amp switching,to blend effects with the 2 loops, switch between 2 pedal chains,goes through 1,2 or 3 amps at the same time,or use more than 1 instrument in the same amp,and posibly more...

[@BenCoombs]

Very cool unit!! Great demo as always Andy!!

[@GorillaNate720]

I just found your new channel!! I've been a fan since the proguitarshop days! It's great to see that you're under your own channel instead of Reverb or proguitarshop! Be safe 👍

[@ryanspencerlauderdale687]

Wetter Box, huh? Sounds like an outhouse. Lol

[@paulcowart3174]

Love Andy's demo's but didn't care for his choice of FX in this one Cool pedal tho I'm thinking mix two whole board's instead of just 2 pedals

[@kaisuckerfield1394]

Yeah, this pedal seems to be really cool. But why does it have to be so expensive? :(

[@JonGUK]

It’s priced way over the top.

[@metalfatigue]

@@JonGUK People spend $200 for a treble booster that's 3 wires and a a transistor. This is stereo in/out, two loops, mixer/blender, individual gains for loops, expression pedal and phase. And I'm sure they don't make many, since most people don't even know this capability exists in a pedal, let alone what you can do with it.

[@Peetie_Wheatstraw]

The wetter, the better. And nothing wrong with a little fuzz either.

[@LEgoiste]

Just a little fuzz, but definitely no big muff!

[@xarafus1975]

Is this comparable to the OBNE Signal Blender?

[@AndyDemos]

They both employ parallel mixing, yes. Very different approaches though-- The Wetter uses a master mix knob or use of an expression to blend an effect in/out or mix between two effects in parallel. The OBNE has footswitches for each channel, so there's no gradual changing between sources but this has its own advantages like a loop switcher. Thanks for asking!

[@ZO5150]

I was literally just researching if this could be done using an HX effects or Helix using midi and expression pedals.

[@rockoloco97]

Mark Alonzo It can

[@Bealzeebozzo]

@@rockoloco97 Yep Parallel circuit on any amps fx send/return chain and a volume/expression pedal gets you damned close.

[@ZO5150]

Rock0loco Sweet!

[@ZO5150]

Kman Krautzman Thanks!

[@oqsy]

Am I the only person that doesn’t like “octave” fuzz? I’ve never heard the musical benefit. Are there good examples of it someone can point to? It sounds more like a mild ring modulator than an octave to me. Help me out, friends.

[@Peacely23]

fulltone 69 fuzz all the away is it on?

[@christianpescado4826]

Kristofer I wondered this myself, because the light is off. Was he just mixing in clean bypassed signal?! Lol

[@marcuslewitzki4610]

Seem like a great parallel mixer, but does it have a kill-dry function? The reason I'm asking is because I want to build a Wet/Dry/Wet rig where I'd like to have the capability to have 100% wet through my wet dedicated amps and let the dry amp handle any dry effects.

[@AMx39]

What kind of tele is that?

[@AndyDemos]

Abel Morales It’s by a Portland builder, Luminous Guitars and the model is Centerline Deluxe. Nice chambered ash body, I’m just borrowing and it will be up on Reverb shortly!

[@luminousguitars3484]

Andy already said it, but it's one of mine! Centerline Deluxe, with Onamac pickups. Hit me up on Instragram @luminousguitars!

[@ZO5150]

Not trying to bash, this could fill a need that I’m currently trying to make happen. Could I accomplish the same thing with a Boss MS-3 by assigning 2 loops to an expression pedal? I wanna run a fuzz and drive in parallel to get a HUGE DOOM metal tone! Been doing this for a while using modeling, but wanna do it with analog pedals and a tube amp. I figured I could do the same parallel drive/fuzz setup plus have the onboard effects for the same price. Any input would be appreciated!

[@draganm7823]

Gr8 sound! Gr8 guitars! 🤟

[@TheVigilantStewards]

Nice demo! Did you not do a clean blend of the sound into a drive or something because it's too obvious? I would've liked to hear some clean signal mixed into compressor or slight overdrive to hear the extra clarity.

[@DJ7tringGuitar]

Saturnworks has a similar product

[@luisbarrera7248]

What's it called?

[@DJ7tringGuitar]

Search Saturnworks on KZbin, you'll see their demos immediately.

[@elbik95]

I'd like to know if there's a pedal Andy can't use like a freaking jedi master, It'd probably take me like a week to fully comprehend how to use this one hahaha

[@patrickcarroll1754]

Just curious if anyone can answer this- is the Xotic X Blender pedal the same thing?

[@aaronsmithey4044]

No, the XBlender is only one way. This is much much more.

[@AndyDemos]

Patrick Carroll To help clarify, yes the Xotic deals with parallel mixing but with just one loop and none of the other perks of the Wetter like expression, trails, stereo etc. Thanks!

[@sglee4708]

I just wanted to let you know I really love what you do you've been around a little bit here and there on the internet and I always follow you thanks for what you do you seem like a good man it's a great player

[@abcdefgjklmnopqrsuvw]

How do you think this stacks up against the EqD Swiss Things Andy?

[@AndyDemos]

Ktulu Bagel Main difference: Swiss loops are series, Wetter is parallel. Different tools for different applications!

[@abcdefgjklmnopqrsuvw]

Thanks for the response and good point!

[@tonym7648]

Andy, love the last example. Did the impedance of the Wetter Box play well with the Fuzz Face style pedal? I’m guessing it brightened the tone a little and the guitar probably didn’t clean up as well…?

[@veerchasm1]

I won’t buy this pedal because I’m A DUDE

[@shckltnebay]

Pretty sure this has STEREO inputs too!

[@ThatPedalShow]

Eric Filsinger yep ;)

[@TheAtheistworld]

does boss line selector ls2 do the same thing??? pls explain,,

[@thereallbking]

Fuzz stacking! We are not worthy 😭

[@NolanDerosia]

Vibrato by itself always makes me feel seasick.

[@TybudX]

I'm going to use this with my tuner and a noise gate.

[@antiocoluca]

Seems like the EHX switchblade but with the option for an expression pedal?am i wrong?

[@ripplebear]

I think the switchblade is just a bypass looper/amp switcher. This is for parallel mixing/routing

[@MatoMisik]

great tool!

[@coreyclark6505]

Hold on, did I miss something? Is Andy not with Reverb anymore?

[@AndyDemos]

Corey Clark Still with Reverb AND doing other content here on this channel✌️

[@hoboroadie]

More pedal, less chain.

[@OverJam52]

7:31 Nailed the Bodysnatchers tone right there

[@dapperdanman1956]

Great offerings andy

[@gooseabuse]

I've been doing this for years with my Memory Man's effect loop

[@nuvaco5]

A boss ls2 waza :)

[@khai_nomore8613]

Exactly! Just add stereo and expression pedal. The secret is out.

[@RockHardRiffs]

This is built in to the Marshall JVM amps. They have both series and parallel fx loops

[@jeremyjoris7468]

So it's a bit like a Boss LS-2 except bigger and more expensive ?

[@RadityoPramAdi]

Far mor feature than LS 2

[@Crazyfistish]

Exactly what I was thinking... The only things this has over an LS-2 are: - Expression control - Trails bypass (turn the Wetter off and reverb/delay trails still carry on) - Latching remote switch control (why would you need this? Why wouldn't this be on the board?) - 2 modes, either crossfade between A and B, or add B on top of A (this can be done with the gain levels on an LS-2, though you would have to bend down and do that manually) - Reverse phase (but nobody will use that) If you don't care about any of this stuff then yeah, it's just a more expensive LS-2. I just use mine to blend a direct bass signal underneath a drive/fuzz sound so all the extra features on this would be overkill! In fact, the LS-2 even has the extra feature to switch between inputs and outputs, so you can switch between guitars or amps.

[@Crazyfistish]

Also, I only just noticed in this video that the only way to switch between trails bypass and normal blend is by unplugging the power and switching it on again holding the footswitch down... So it's only one or the other, there is no way to switch this mid-song.

[@RadityoPramAdi]

@@Crazyfistish I probably go with something like Switchblade 8F, since it controls series+parallel signal chain and effect switching in/out.

[@jeremyjoris7468]

@@Crazyfistish The thing that would make me choose the LS-2 over the Wetter is that, with the latter, in order to mix your clean signal you have to sacrifice one of the loops. So parallel overdrives with clean signal is not possible but on the other hand the added features of the Wetter make it more interesting for mixing mono modulations, delays, and reverbs without losing clarity, considering they already have a mix knob. Erratum: It seems I've been lied to. The LS2 can't mix a dry signal when there's pedals in the 2 loops. Nice to learn about it just before buying it ^^

[@lolobuggah2670]

Aside from the expression pedal, can these same functions be performed by the the boss LS-2?

[@franciscoadonis1068]

The LS2 does not have an expression pedal

[@brexxebender1204]

Guess what folks... there are NO new pedals out there. These pedals all are the same thing. Just a different name, higher price!!! Video coming soon

[@AndyDemos]

Following that logic, all cars are the same! Truthfully, parallel mixing isn't new but the feature set with this pedal is. It is not a Boss line switcher, AB box or X Blender. None of those pedals can do what this pedal does. Andy

[@brexxebender1204]

@@AndyDemos The logic and ( free) opinion is that there are only sooo many effects that can be made. Take Strymon for example, how many reverb pedals or " version " of reverbs have they made? I dont have any stake in these pedals, ya see I dont get em for free... You know who actually makes ORIGINAL sounding pedals... Piotr Zapart. They're expensive BUT I dont lose % 50 of the price at resale on used gear... they maintain their value. And yes lol, theoretically, all cars are the same, say what? Lol... I'm making a cool pedal, it's called " Liberalism, find a cure:...

[@AndyDemos]

Bender Vision I understand your free opinion, I have played literally thousands of pedals, including bit crushers. Getting back to my only point, which is very specific: I have not yet played a pedal that could sweep between two parallel effects loops like this pedal. Peace ✌️

[@1-DOT.COM-radio]

How is this Wetter pedal functionally that much different from the Morley ABY Mix pedal at one third the price?

[@Bealzeebozzo]

Full stereo functionality for one, two different blending mode functions, expression pedal controllable.....and then some. But sure you could use the Morley ABY Mix pedal, the same as you could use the old WetBox unit for the same functionality, minus stereo, blend controls, expression controls...

[@AndyDemos]

xRadious Compact Radio Jukebox I would put the Morley is a different category of A/B/Y box.
