[@phillip8429]

dude! amidst the glut of effects pedal videos what you’re doing is so damn refreshing.

[@GamerSirus]

Good god, I cannot understand how this channel isn't bigger. Literally one of the most creative "pedal guys" on KZbin. Keep it up, man!

[@Bowsers_Trousers]

Seriously, he’s doing the most interesting pedal work of literally any other guitar channel I know out there. Even stuff i love like the JHS channel don’t feel like they push boundaries the way he does.

[@RoscoesWrapss]

Fuck yeah dude. Probably one of the most genuine KZbinrs in general also

[@grantandrews4826]

This is probably the only "gear" channel that actually makes me want to make my own music with the gear I already own. I love it

[@non_brewed_condiment]

This is my favorite channel by such a huge margin. This is the way to talk about pedal. it’s so much better than “THIS IS A GAME CHANGER” videos every week.

[@TjByers369]

How Soon Is Now by The Smiths is what first turned me on to tremolo. The Slicer is one of my favorite effects.

[@CyberattackWorld]

the pillars

[@antoniofry465]

Dude same exact thought popped into my head

[@briank326]

I can only begin to imagine how much effort it takes to produce these videos, with the tips themselves, all the example songs, and then the animations on top of it, but just let me tell you: all of it, every single piece, is deeply appreciated!

[@81realtime]

You just unlocked the Chroma Console for me. Tried your Tremolo suggestions, saved, then started reordering and twisting. Getting the warped flutters of my joyous dystopian dreams.

[@mj.l]

god i love it when a little tip or suggestion opens up a whole new world of creative options to explore. awesome.

[@boxofjoe]

I dont even like tremolo and I loved all of these sounds! time to reconsider some things in life then

[@irradix213]

I saw one on stacking mods by someone else that said we're uncomfortable with using an effect(singular) bc we've mostly heard them stacked and didn't know it, they clean up and de cheese each other, and more modern pedals try to do it in one

[@focusource]

Every video makes me want to wander around in John Marty's video game / action figure worlds.

[@theroadhomefromwrestling1788]

The unstable tip is my favorite. Slowed way down. I use it to for a cool record skip type sound. Rules for low fi stuff for sure.

[@CyberattackWorld]

[@sonicstate]

Great video 👏 shared on Sonicstate today!

[@pjforde1978]

I'm proud to say that as soon as you mentioned inserting a tremolo after a lush reverb, my brain immediately went to How Soon Is Now.

[@CyberattackWorld]

that means you were raised right

[@edwin-zone]

I feel blessed this day, 6 tips! Inspiring ideas to try, and the sound examples are on point. Time until sidestep: 8 mins 25 seconds. 😂

[@CyberattackWorld]

LOL to the side step clock that's good

[@DiscountLionSafari]

Was not expecting "One Fine Day" by the Chiffons to make an appearance--awesome as always.

[@CyberattackWorld]

glad you caught that

[@NohFyuchur]

Ooh yeah that fuzz into trem…synthy nifty

[@CyberattackWorld]

i'm hooked on that sound myself

[@LiteralApe]

long time viewer first time commenter. Your tips have definitely helped to use my weird and wonky and even normal pedals in ways that raise the roof. especially your delay video. more love to the strymon orbit! please look into it.

[@AlexDemiurge]

Love how creative you are! Great tips and sounds.

[@EllieReagan]

Bro, these graphics are your best yet. Feels a-plenty

[@foxfire204]

Man I think you have the most unique guitar channel I've ever seen!! Your visuals and animations, your glitchy and amazing guitar tones, and your pro tips are so original that it really are creative. You deserve so much suscribers and wow you have a lot of knowledge and talent.

[@ManiacalReflection]

You’re so awesome man your channel became my favorite so fast

[@nonculus]

i fw this aesthetic youve got going on heavy sis

[@Hillelfraenkel]

Finally a video about my favorite pedal! Awesome as always!

[@emmarossignol4445]

I finally got a Syntax Error V2 because of you, and have been thinking about playing with it as a tremolo since I don't have one so this is good timing! Also I've definitely noticed a good difference with the animations now. This higher quality haze is really tying all the pieces together, it feels more glued and less like I can see individual layers if that makes sense.

[@adriatic.vineyards]

Nice! Tell me what u think of it once u play with it for a bit

[@CyberattackWorld]

Thanks it’s because I started using Blender to animate, enjoy the syntax error

[@emmarossignol4445]

@@adriatic.vineyards I've had it for 2-3 weeks and I love it! Stereo mode was a little funkier than expected but using it mono still sounds very good. Just not a constant "stereo-izer" pedal that I was hoping for. I love that it covers so many sounds I don't currently have in other pedals. The ability to have every sound be insane and glitchy but also take all that out for the basic effect is incredible. I love the reverb for example, with no bit crush or pitch shift it just sounds great and then you can get wacky on top of that. Maybe I'll remember this comment in a few months and check in again!

[@stellar_cartographer]

New cyberattack ❤ tremolo is really inspiring to me, I’m really excited for this one

Love your videos dude!! also the edits are out of this world :D, Thanks for the tips!!

[@HomeInMyShoes]

Six! All the sound clips were brilliantly fun today. About time for tremolo. My favourite effect outside of reverb. No reverse sawtooth though? Not cool? Thanks for finally going into that world I'm trapped in. Filter -> SL-2. It's so much fun.

[@CyberattackWorld]

you’re right reverse saw can be cool, especially if you play right right at the low point and treat it as a low-tech swell effect

[@Fredrik_S]

Man, your new album with Teddi Gold is fantastic. Love it!

[@CyberattackWorld]

Oh man thank you for checking it out

[@VitaEx]

My favorite tremolo the eqd night wite has an awesome setting for rate you can do manual like normal or attack which changes the rate to the speed of the vibration of your strings. Sooo the harder you hit the strings the faster it goes and then slows down over time it’s amazing maybe my favorite thing to do ever. I like to run it into the Caroline kilobyte a delay that can add distortion to only the repeats of the delay and has a momentary switch that when stepped on sets the feedback to infinity. I wait till the teem is just about to die out then bring it back in with infinite delay till it makes fuzzy noise sweet ear candy

[@seanedwards773]

I'm so excited for this episode. Trem is literally the only modulation that I like. I far prefer a harmonic trem to any chorus or phaser.

[@Michie322]

Dude I love your videos! Not only gear and great music but for the great visuals!

[@BuddhaClause]

Love that Gorilla Amp!

[@gideonk123]

The tune starting at 10:27 is quite cheerful and interesting musically. Has potential for being transformed to a mainstream hit song, in my opinion --> more income for Mr. Cyberattack

[@CyberattackWorld]

It already was a mainstream hit song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/emGviqZji9Z5q9ksi=CtrIT5qTap2fTGp8

[@gideonk123]

@ You’re referring to the tune from 12:39, which I did recognize as “one fine day”. But I’m talking about from 10:27 - to me it doesn’t quite sound as the same tune 🤔 Maybe I’m not getting it somehow?

[@CyberattackWorld]

@@gideonk123 oh no you're right sorry. the song at 10:27 is taken from this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHzQmZJsobpjmNksi=PX1JGlx75vhLduu4

I'll be honest I haven't liked tremolo but your videos definitely making me rethink that opinion

I love the gorilla amp photo. I had that exact amp in like 88 and I thought I had the most monster rig out there. Good old days

[@nickhem12]

I really enjoy the songs you choose to cover and how you choose to cover them. I love finding a sound and thinking back through music history, where have I ever heard this, and going with it. The one fine day cover really impressed just on a deep cuts level.

[@CyberattackWorld]

thanks for this comment, i'm really glad you caught the Chiffons song and I always hope that people will pick up on the stuff i'm doing on this level while I work on the videos

[@nickhem12]

@ I bump some of your grooves that I get hung up on through my hifi so I can sing along and my kids are like “is the mf freestyling right now?” Your channel ends up being a pregame to my jam sessions. Really inspiring. Really thinking in a syntax error too haha.

[@joelthoms5600]

This is the coolest channel ever bro i thought tremolo sucked until i saw this

[@danielhelderman5228]

You had me at "Lo-Fi wierdness"

[@CyberattackWorld]

[@osakasuperrescue]

Off tip #2, I have been trying for -years- to decode the tremolo effect from 'Burn' by The Cure that runs on (I think?) a distorted synth line throughout. You can hear it most clearly in the outro for the last 30 secs of the song. Sounds like a step slicer rather than a tremolo but it's also a slightly randomised pattern - if anybody knows how they achieved this, you would solve a decades-old mystery for me

[@dumdumsillyguy]

ur vids r so dope man 😃

[@peterkoinzell7983]

This videos so new I just bought a gunklator clone and I was looking at Fairfield circuitry for the first time and you pop out a Fairfield ring mod very interesting.

[@GoCreateSomething]

I'm surprised one of your tips wasn't stacking trems. Have you never done that? Maybe it is too ordinary. lol.

[@CyberattackWorld]

That was gonna be a pro-tip at one point, but I ended up getting more excited about what became these 6

[@CyberattackWorld]

agree

[@maxmunzert9725]

How did you do the lead sound in the first smiths thingy ?????

[@CyberattackWorld]

do you mean the harmonized reverse bend thing, or the little xylophone / harmonic melody thing

[@maxmunzert9725]

@@CyberattackWorld harmonized reverse bend thingy

[@maxmunzert9725]

@@CyberattackWorld but also the xylophone

[@CyberattackWorld]

@@maxmunzert9725 OK cool here we go: HARMONIZED REVERSE BEND THINGY: first I just played a reverse bend, with a pretty normal guitar tone, and then harmonized it with an overdub. the lower note goes down a whole step but the higher note goes down a half step, and they're harmonized in diatonic sixths-which means the two notes start as a minor sixth apart but end up being a major sixth apart once those were recorded, I put a bunch of stereo reverb on both and put the reverb mix to 100%. then i exported those two notes isolated, just the two of them, with 100% reverb next I imported that 100%-wet reverb bounce into Audacity and reversed the entire waveform-so now I had a backward reverb tail of the original notes I then re-imported the backward reverb tail and lined it up so that it would precede the original notes. I switched the original two notes from being 100% wet reverb to being 50-50 wet-dry, and also added some modulated delay. So now before those notes occur, you hear their backward reverb first. And the notes themselves are bathed in washy stereo reverb and delay. Just based on what the original recording sounds like to me, I think some version of this process is what's on the song. XYLOPHONE / HARMONIC THING this was less of a process. those notes are just me using my OP-1 synth with a preset I set up somewhere along the line that sounds vaguely like a xylophone. And I doubled it, very faintly, with a low-tech MIDI xylophone from inside GarageBand. the original song is normal harmonics on a guitar that was retuned to accommodate the harmonics, which i didn't want to deal with

[@HenryJackification]

Hey, just wondering if you deal with a lot of neck dive with that guitar? Do you have any workarounds for it if you do? I have always been obsessed with mockingbirds and I am inches away from pulling the trigger on one myself. Great video as usual, I love the animations and your short song clips!

[@CyberattackWorld]

What is neck dive

[@jamesburton1493]

It's where the neck sort of "dives"/drops when standing up and playing, due to the weight being unbalanced. So when you let go of the neck, it naturally just starts to drop. I've only ever had one guitar that did it. For me it's not really a huge issue, I mostly play sitting down (I'm just a bedroom/hobbyist guitar player)

[@CyberattackWorld]

@@jamesburton1493 ok that was my guess. I've had 2 mockingbirds and I would say it has not been a major issue.

[@gideonk123]

Gibson SG is the quintessential “neck dive” guitar, but it’s light-weight, has great access to higher frets, and has great sound (to my taste), so it has advantages too

[@CyberattackWorld]

@@gideonk123 yeah I love my SG. i also think neck dive is not the end of the world
