Ridiculous

How is it? I just bought the Orange Komp

Agreed, you straight cannot demo a compression pedal, it's more of a 'feel' thing than about actual tone. The pedal that 'sounds' the best on a demo is probably going to be the one that colors the tone the most. Since the Strymon does that more, ofc it's going to be a winner in the comment section.

But see, I’m after the squash. I’d like something close to my Black Finger. I think Strymon built some incredible pedals, but the OB-1 is not one of them. It’s a boost pedal with compression knob like an afterthought. Perhaps a comp for people that don’t like comps. I haven’t tried the Compadre. When I dig it out of storage, I need to decide whether or not to keep it.

Tbh I have the keely and it sounds amazing with a couple ambient reverbs and overdrive

jerry solon smith lmao

How did the people producing this NOT notice that the guitar is out of tune. And it’s a music store, right? You’re trying to sell gear? Put your best foot forward. The content is useful, but the overall production is bad. Delete this video and make another one.

Steve Steve!? How many people did you “correct” on this 🤣 you a guitar tech or something?

Chris E. What’d ya say?

It's a Chapman, that's how they come as standard 🤣🤣🤣

would love too but we don't carry that brand.

that sometimes come with the true bypass circuit

I mean, how to eliminate noise when recording guitar.

I think he's using an interface

Buy a noise gate and check that there is no inherent noise from your guitar or amp (sometimes caused by bad tubes, grounding issues, or some smaller uncommon issues). Boss Noise Gates are awesome and Apogee or Universal Audio interfaces have amazing sound

Usually when an amp is noisy, there’s something in the signal chain causing it. So it’s best to try to find and eliminate the root cause. Set all the volume gains correctly across the entire chain, otherwise you could be amplifying “air” in the signal. If the amp is noisy even with no input, it could be caused by dirty power. If it’s necessary to record it as is, correct mic placement and good room sound can still make it sound awesome. A noise gate is a last resort but cause more problems than it solves.

Wow good question. I'm not a recording guy so i dont know that one. I will try to find out though and get back to you.

i'm liking the strymon for all around.

AlvasMusic the pulp and peel and so much white noise doesn’t it

nothing that i can hear but our wall power isn't the best.

@Noah Lyons, So far the best and less noisy compressor I have had thus far is the origin Cali76 Compact Deluxe. Just tried a PettyJohn Crush but it is not compatible with various power supplies (Gigrig Doubler 18 Volt adaptor) It does it's thing at 12 to 18 volts , but I found it to be too noisy with mu Gigrig Power , Of all these on this video, I liked the JHS Pulp& Peel.

@Noah Lyons and... is it less noisy then the SP? I too consider a switch

I have the Diamond and it's AMAZING

hes using noise gate

Also curious. Have a wampler ego and it definately generate hiss.

I got the Keeley Compressor Plus for Christmas and sent it back with a faulty Sustain pot (scratchy and noisy). Got a refund as no replacement available. Bought second from different company that arrived today with noisy Sustain AND Blend control. It's going back for probably and Ego Mini which reportedly is very quiet.

Buy a JHS.

@@blade82188 Is the JHS Tighty Whitey less noisy? I had the Keely and now have the Xotic SP. The keely just sounded down right sterile and also kind of noisy. I like the sound of the Xotic SP but it seems overly VERY noisy. I need something that doesn't hum/buzz so much.

So is the sp

@@ficknoti Ended up going with the Orange Kompressor, it isn't that quiet but I feel that the tonal quality is much livelier and organic when compared to the sp or Keely

yes i do at church and i have a band called Warehouse One.

Church music.🤦🏻‍♂

Steve Lol. Apologies for not being specific enough. Let me try agin. “Your intonation needs adjusted because bad intonation leads to inconsistent tuning up the neck, effectively rendering your playing out of tune”

Steve ok I’ll bite cause this is a fun, pointless argument 😂. To tune (physically move the tuning pegs) is different than to intonate (adjusting the string length) a guitar. You can tune (move the tuning pegs) a guitar that is not intonated properly. This will cause the open strings to be in tune (that is, be at standard concert pitch, typically A = 440 cycles per second). However, a guitar with bad intonation will not remain in tune across the neck (that is, the pitch will deviate from standard concert pitch). So, in conclusion, we’re both correct depending on whether you are using the word as a noun (the state of being in proper pitch) or a verb (to adjust to a correct or given standard of pitch). Good day to you.

Steve lol. Bro you are relentless 🤣 but okay 😈 I would hope a guitarist worth their salt would know. I played bass a few weeks back for the first time in a while and noticed immediately I was out of tune. Tuned up, played again, noticed the pitch was a little off at the octave, adjusted the saddle and voila, consistent pitch across the neck.

The compressor is probably the last pedal I would buy, when all the useful pedals have been bought. There’s just no real point the difference is sooo subtle. It’s so hard to hear.

not a thorpy dealer thanks though

the cab is mic'd

@@chrismaneewan7651 Cool thanks.

i like strymon

@@alvasllc1313 which produces less noise and which has better compression better sound the jhs or the strymon?? Thanks

@@alvasllc1313 ???????????

I would say the strymon had the lowest noise floor. Sorry i would have answered Saturday but i had the day off till today.

i also think the strymon sounds better.

Comment as well.
