I know this video is over three years old, but man, it is a great demonstration of this pedal. I am sold.

Awesome vid. I hate google and actually signed up with an account just to tell you thanks and to subscribe to your channel. Had a friends trio to try out and found this. Got diagnosed with a terminal illness and so don't have time to look for people to jam with or deal with all the shedules and hassles of that, so this is perfect for me to enjoy my music while I can, and your vid was excellent. I'll watch it a few more times in the week or so my unit takes to get here so I'll be on top of it out of the box. Thanks so much! Youre sense of humor, mistakes, (we need those to happen cause they happen to us), and the layout of your multiple cams make this by far the best instructional video I've seen yet. Tshuss!

I've watched your videos for a long time now, I love how you just roll with the punches, and have fun with everything. I think your personality helps with the videos, and I'll bet you're a riot to hang out with. I love the mistakes you made in this vid, while playing, JUST LIKE WE ALL DO, and you didn't edit it out, you let us all see, that we all mess up. Your humor about it and the faces you made, crack me up. Keep up the good work, and just be yourself and have fun, it shows the rest of us, that we don't always have to be so damn serious about everything.

I think some people are missing the point. This isn't meant to be a full-on writing tool. It partly does that, but it's meant to just inspire people by giving you a glimpse of what your guitar idea might sound like in a full band scenario, and in a set song arrangement. The way I would use this would be to lay down an arrangement, then if it sounds like it has potential I would go away and work on proper drum and bass parts and tweak the arrangement. Writing a song is an evolution - this gadget just provides you with the first few steps. To expect it to be much more is just stupid, especially since you're only talking about a £200 pedal. Personally when I've got a guitar idea, I can't be bothered to program drum and bass parts, because that will then just clog my brain with drum ideas and bass ideas. This pedal can give someone like me a quick way to get my idea down in a full band scenario, and even tweak the style which might even get me to rethink my original idea. In my opinion, this pedal is just the first (or second) in what will be a big influx of "instand band pedals", much like how loopers suddenly got big. Unless Digitech have copyrighted this technology, other companies will be coming out with their own models at some point, and each one will improve, and will probably be more expensive. This pedal is £200, and you're getting a drum machine, a looper, a sequencer, and an instant backing track creator that learns what you play immediately. So if anyone complains that this pedal is overpriced, or doesn't do enough then I'm sorry - but you're a diva lol.

I also like the fact on how thorough you are, you really have dug into this pedal, we all really appreciate the work and study you have done with this Trio + pedal. Bravo buddy!!

This was a fantastic demo. And funny with it. Great editing. I watched the whole 1 hour 11min. Your demo style is unique. You've obviously put a lot of time in particular to demoing this. Well impressed.

one of the best how to "actually use this" videos I've recently seen...

Love this tutorial, had the trio+ for a while now, not sure how to use it, but having watched this video all becomes clear.Love your human mistakes, i have even got my brother watching you channel. Keep up the informative reviews and also keep up the humor that goes with the videos. Bought my 1st Harley Benton SC-450Plus LD Vintage Series guitar because i watched your videos. Keep up the great work.

You have definitely opened my eyes to basically the full operational qualities of the Trio+. I have had one for almost a year and hadn't even scratched the surface of it's capabilities. Thank you so much for your videos and knowledge.

By far the best video for the Trio Plus I have seen. Thank you for the great vid, and geez oh pete, thanks for making me laugh while I watched it.

Thank you so much for this review/tutorial. I have just got the trio + and this is by far the most fun and informative video. I'm now a subscriber and have the joy of years of videos to go through to build the perfect pedal board and write songs 🤟

Saw this video and literally rushed out and bought one from the local GC. I haven't been so inspired in years. Playin' like there's no tomorrow. What a great toy. Love the Latin rhythms. I wish there was a reggae mode. Latin gets close. Thanx for taking the time to explain the details. I was up and running in minutes. My setup uses a PODxT Live floorboard into a Behringer mixer. I simply inserted the Trio+ into my guitar input and assigned the mixer output to an open mixer channel. Done.

Hey, a big thanks for the truly in depth Trio Plus demo! I have just got mine after a wait of about two months. Just started laying down some songs on it so your tips and tricks have been invaluable. I also like the humour you bring to your videos! Some reviewers are far too serious and up themselves. Thanks again. I'm off to fire up my Trio plus now and drink some cold coffee!

I just got one! Fumbled around not understanding what was happening. Just watched your whole video....think your crazy honest presentation style is mesmerising....and you’ve told me everything I need to know! I’ve plugged Bass & Lead guitars and a Microphone through a mixer into the input, so I can layer vocal harmonies as well. Going to have fun with this toy. Thanks for a great, in depth tutorial.

You're kind of scattered in a funny sort of way! Great video and super informative. Really really helpful for thudheaded Gearheads like myself that struggle with tutorials and manuals and the like. After watching your demo video I went ahead and picked one of these up and I absolutely love it. Your video is much better than any of the information that came with the unit! Good job dude

Just purchased a Trio+ online from Amazon minutes before watching your in depth demo, I took ages to choose which drum machine to go but after watching demo I am over the moon with my decision, by the way, I have also just bought a Les Paul Tribute and a Blackstar 10 watt amp as it is 35 years since I last picked a guitar up an cant wait for my Trio+ to arrive now, thank you for such an in depth review and also your sense of humour, I will be looking out for more of your posts on KZfaq.

Truly inspired review of this product. I purchased it based on this review! Can't wait to get it and start experimenting and playing... it's FUN and that's the main reason I like it! Anything to practice more and not do boring stuff! Thanks Henning!

Hands down, the best and most informative demo of what this Trio Plus does. Thanks, now I'm gonna go jam.

As always, great video. You do such a good job of going in-depth for all products, especially those that require it or have lots of features. The Digitech Trio+ looks like a much improved devices and very tempting to try. Might I also add, your playing is awesome. You can always make something sound so professional and thought out. Great job!

I have no problem giving you positive cudos. I've been enjoying your KZfaq videos for years now. They are always informative and often entertaining. Being from Texas and living in South Carolina gives me a different slant on your humor. Thanks for the smiles.

yup, I'm convinced! I not only want one, but need one of these to fill my pedal board. thanks for the fun and informative tutorial.

I got one of these just last week. This video really has helped me unlock the possibilities. Thank you!

Speechless! Great educ-entertaining video. I got a TRIO+ couple months ago and still discovering its fun and creative functionalities. Still don't know how it will react via my MAudio sound card, can't wait to try now! Thanks for all the hints you provided in this video. Great humour, keep doing what you do!

Just got this for Christmas... appreciate your demo man it was very helpful. Pretty cool pedal

Danke for creating a comprehensive video that delves into the basic applications and set-ups for use, as well as explaining the options and reasons for the signal chain. Far more practical and useful than a uninspired pamphlet with typical engineering writing that only confuses the user. Love your music cave and your most personable presentation. Now following your submissions for future reference. Can not wait to get my hands on this puppy. Keep rocking', bro!

Wow first time catching a video by you. Very informative and entertaining. I really liked the Digitech Trio+ product and feel very comfortable now in going ahead and purchasing one. I'll be checking out your other videos soon really liked your comments and sense of humor. Thanks, Keep on doing your demos/reviews!

I had already decided on this as my next pedal. This excellent review simply solidified my decision. Thanks!!

This guys videos are always great. They show you how things work. Not at all boring.

Your tutorial was GREAT! I laughed out loud a dozen times. This is 2020 and I've just discovered the TRIO+ and have ordered mine used from Ireland!! You've very much heightened my anticipation of its arrival! Singer's (that you didn't mention a mic in the guitar input for the loop function ha ha)...who can play a few chords on a guitar, or on the keyboard (1/2 inch in from mono), can have a ball with this!! Thank you for pointing out the different setups in front and behind, to an amp, or mixer and so many of the permutations. AND the portable POWER SOURCE!!THANK YOU!!!

Love the wisdom, Best explanation of functions, uses, creative ideas, I never turned your tutorial off, Thank you, will buy one.

Such a great review. I just picked one up and I'm loving it. This video helped me understand the real potential of the Trio+!!! Thank you! Wish you were my teacher.

Giving my thumbs up before watching the whole video. I just bought it today and I am learning from you ! Thanks a lot buddy. Love your demos ! Greetings from Brazil

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to actually go through most everything. The begining with the setup is beyond me and you may to have that as a separate video in the future.

This is a great overview and review of the Digitech Trio Plus. I just ordered one and look forward to it. Thanks for the excellent videos.

Great video love the humor and the faces when you f-ed up a note.. I am convinced I need one of these.

It's 8 years old now, and still the best demo of this amazing device!

Fantastic review my man. Really useful input re set up . I bought one immediately after seeing this . Set up is Trio + with Effects Loop running through a Pod 2.0 into a Marshall MSG Mini-Stack . Drums & Bass go directly into an AER 40 Acoustic Amp and lead "noodling " comes out of my Fender Blues Deluxe. Amazing ! Other Pedal Manufacturers will be sweating buckets . By the way , I've been playing for 40 years. Never seen anything like it.

I finally start to build the pedalboard I always wanted but couldn't afford. This just to improve my playing is the first pedal I'm about to order. Thank you for this great review, you got a new subscriber!

Just plugged in my new Trio+... kinda lost... went looking and found.... YOU! WOW! great vid. Watching it several times to "understand". THANK YOU! Best one I found.. helpful, instructional, fun, funny (really.. THANK YOU for leaving in errors.. we all make 'em). REALLY helped my understanding of this fantastic pedal. SO glad I got it. Now I just need to use it all the time to get to be a better player! (you are a great player, btw.. hoping maybe your other vids can help me there too!)

I have the pedal and have watched a ton of vids on it. You are hands down the best reviewer of this product.

Love this guy! Enjoying himself while giving us the best in-depth trio lesson I've seen on KZfaq. Awesome, thanks!

Thanks so much for this video! Just got one of them today, and I was boggling over why my Line 6 was distorting the Drum and Bass. Your video has made this device much more fun and easy to use!!

Dude! This is the best tutorial i have ever seen by far!. Thanks for taking the time.

love your sense of humor while covering the tech stuff, great job!

I haven't been back here in a while - I forgot how much fun your channel is. I bet you have sold a bunch of these units for them with this video. Excellent demo. I'll probably be buying one now.

Great video. I've been toiling over what looper to buy for the last year or more and stumbled across your video here. First of all... You're a madman, nearly as crazy as me. Lol! Great Craic! Secondly, you did a great job of explaining and showing the functionality of this device. I'm not sure I absorbed the entire sequencing part, but I think once I get one, I'll work that detail out on my own. I was impressed with the quality of the "band, bass and drums" feature, and it's general intelligence. You did a terrific job of showing it's capabilities and limitations. I think I might have found the right for for my needs thanks to you. Cheers! Dave

Good info, love how you went through it pretty much experimenting with every aspect of the Trio+. Being able to sit through the hour plus of this video is a testament to your ability to engage and teach me something. Only thing Bro, please, less caffeine for future videos. Good stuff!!

I've had this for well over a year, great tutorial ! I was giving up on this ,but i"m going to give this another try.

Thanks for doing such an in-depth review - you have sold me on this thing - its frickin amazing !! only wished it had a reggae style .... but still blew me away.

Massive thank you from me in UK. Very honest appraisal and good to you work through mistakes etc as this is what we would all do. great stuff. Keep it up Matey!!

Awesome tutorial, he makes what could be a long tiring video very very entertaining & I didn’t feel like fast forwarding once, fabulous 👍

Simply perfect information to get me through the door using my Trio, thank you very much Sir!

Awesome video. Thank you. I have ordered one already, now to figure out how to tell the wife! Your video is making me feel so much better about the purchase. Can't wait until it get here.

Really excellent tutorial of the Trio Plus. Your videos are really done well. Very informative and entertaining.

This is fantastic, thank you, you inspired me to buy one and I've never had so much fun with a pedal, this has enabled me to become very creative in a way I never thought I could, Also your a funny guy 😁👍

Thanks friend , I started out in a frenzy of confusion then you shone your light of order and organization. Much obliged.

VERY impressed you spent over an hour on this (obviously took more after editing). As others have commented this is one of the best 'how to use' Thanks for your time. Great review channel as always your humour adds to it . For anybody who'd prefer you speak slower .... ask them to listen quicker.

Henning: Always been a fan but this review/lesson is really superb. The crisp short HowTos made by others are a bit frustrating when I'm trying to use the pedal to do more than the basics. Your fiddling around - and I mean that in a good way - is really encouraging, and I learnt more from it than from my own noodling. What I like about the Trio+ is that you don;t have to be anally perfect with the ON-OFF to get it to sync. Thanks mate!

REALLY great demo and tutorial. I already decided on one of these asap, and have watched every demo on youtube, but yours is the only one that really went all the way and that helps a lot, thanks.

A really great presentation - thanks! I like your quirky nature - lots of fun watching.

Great review and answered a whole lot of my questions and explored many hook-ups I hadn't even thought about yet. Thanks, Dieze !!l

Just awesome. A very thoughtful review, which has saved me months of trial and error. Thank you.

Love the latin and jazz style progression that you've played ! Great review, got to go to the shop try it by myself!

I enjoyed the playing on the Jazz setting and the video was entertaining as always. Keep up the good work.

I am in the market for a looper. I have checked many of them. Your video convinced me this is the one. Thank you!!! Greetings from Monterrey, Mexico

LONG DEMO WORTH IT TAKE THE TIME TO WATCH This is the best demo explanation easy to understand how to video. A real demo without a bunch of over the top studio professional demo artists with fancy crap you will never duplicate in your little room the wife lets you have your guitars and gear. :) Thank you for a real helpful demo.

I've just bought a TRIO Plus. This has to be the most useful and entertaining video of this type I've yet seen. Most guys can only hold my attention for about 5 minutes before I think - BORING - and turn to something else. But I watched all of this, learned a lot (including that I'm a pretty limited guitarist!), and must try some more of your stuff. BTW - you are crazy, but in a really cool way....

This is very cool step forward. The Actual Band in a Box program can use real instruments that sound really good. I typically arrange in Midi (quicker processing) then change the instruments over to real instruments. I do have the original Trio for sitting around & playing with ideas. Great times we live in. Great review & makes me want this model as well.

You have been of enormous help to me already with the Trio Plus that I purchased recently. Thank you so very much. Now if only I could play lead guitar as well as you do for solo overdubbing! I hope to eventually be able to use this in my solo shows but I understand that the Librarian Manager software for computer isn't even available for download yet since this Plus model is so new. Please keep these coming. "Autumn Leaves" knocked me right out. I'm nearly 69 years old now, my friend, and am finally learning things about my guitar that I hadn't discovered on my own during the past 55 years or so that I've been playing professionally as a solo and in bands. Hope more videos from you will continue to speed up my learning curve. I owe you an adult beverage or two for sure, my friend. Thanks again so much.

Okay. I'm going to the store on saturday to try out this little magic box, and probably get myself one. Danke, really, for this sehr gut review!

Thank you... Thank you... Thank you for such an in-depth review! I think I’m sold on this!

Great review and instruction vid - I agree its an awesome product. It takes a bit of time to learn what it wants to hear when you teach it. I love it when you record in one genre then twist it to another and it sound surprisingly better. My latest one was metal to E-pop!!

I know it is late, but you are the best manual I've seen so far for that gadget. Just one remark, the FS3X is not a waste, it gives you THREE x 3 different options how to handle the Trio+ remotely.

This guy is gold! Great demo too

Dude, you do such a good job! I love the German quirckiness, awesome bro! I will subscribe!

Thanks for all the info Henning. Much appreciated. Plus, you're a riot. Keep up the good work.

Super video, very informative and entertaining. Getting one and this is a good summary with enough detail to get a full appreciation for what this can do and how to do it. Thanks EytschPi42!

Thanks for the video. I was not sure about buying this. I do a lot of solo gigs and this will definitely kick my loopers butt! You're a funny man!!! LOL!!!

Thanks man. Mine is on the way and I can't wait for it to get here. Pretty cool

I'm a coffee nerd, and a gear nerd. actually managed a coffee shop for a while, very interested in the beans you use? are they possibly tone enhancing beans?

Thanks for the great review. Wow. Ordering one tonight as it perfect for prodding my practice times up to a few hours.

Absolutely great learning tool for guitarists to use at home.

Thanks for a great video. I just picked one up and can't wait to start playing with it. Unfortunately it's wrapped up under the tree and I don't get it till Christmas.until then I'll be watching as much information as possible. Thanks again!! PS. I use a Digitech Vocalist Live 3 should I put it first then pass the Guitar to my pedal board then to the Trio+ while sending the vocal straight to the PA?

Thank you for a great and complete review! Much appreciated!

Absolutely fantastic demo/tutorial, thank you good sir

Great review, thanks man. So if for example I have only an amp and I get every effect from there is it going to be ok to connect it simply: guitar>trio>amp? Can I alternatively send trio in monitors and get all the rest from amp speaker?

hey there, first off thx for the time n effort, the vid was very informative and i def learned some new features of the Trio+... question, i have my Trio+ running into an interface for my DAW, and i am using the amp output.. should i be using the mixer output? or should i have the mixer out to the interface, and the amp out to the amp ? i hadn't tried the headphones output, maybe i should connect to the interface (DAW) via headphone output..?? pls advise on the best setup for sound quality ... thx vm

Seems like an invaluable tool for the working musician. Someday I may own one. I love the looks of absolute pain when your tracking! Another great vid Henning!

A lot of pedals that you show are about the same price. But, IMO, this is the best value and is perfect for anyone who isn't in a band. Thanks for the great in-depth demo.

hi dude! long time no see! just got one... can wait to start playing with it... my daughter is sleeping since i came from the shop :( good to see you still enjoy yourself and doing a very good work! thanks for the in depth review! was very helpful...

Your review was amazing, I just picked up my trio.

Seriously insane review / tutorial. Great job ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️

Awesome time learning the trio. Many thanks.

I wonder how I could wire this up using my Pod Go. Should I put the Pod Go in the fx loop of the Trio+ or put the Trio+ in the Pod Go's fx loop? Are there any tricks that I could do utilizing both loopers from the Pod Go and the Trio+?

An older video but Eytsch you totally nail this. And plenty of good natured nerdball humor to make the entire thing enjoyable and fun. Thanks for plenty of loop tracks that immediately got dumped! Because that's what happens when you really start recording stuff!

You make learning fun. That's a good teacher in any subject.

Thanks for the great vid, very helpful! I agree with you that it should have BPM readout, and most importantly...midi clock syncability with other components. I think that should be standard on all of these new, incredibly capable products. Btw, this was the first vid of yours that I have seen and really enjoyed it. I'm going to check out some others! Thanks again. :)

Thanks SO MUCH for SO MUCH work. Your video helps clarify the many options AND subtleties of the Trio AND the realities of varied output pathways. You eliminated a lot of guess work. SOONER FUNNER PLAYING !

Great review! Great review! Great review! Good camera views. Good video production. Really. Great. Review. Loved the parts about how best to set it up, and how behavior changes depending on setup. Loved the parts about what would make it even better. If you plug it into a computer, does the user interface get better there? You could have mentioned that. Okay, I liked it.

Very good user experience overview! I'm glad I dragged my feet until the trio plus came out!
