This pedal is really good but it's very confusing .. I've had it for months now and I'm still trying to understand all the effects it has and what changes them . The directions are awful and the videos that boss uses to show this machine are totally useless .. its a fun machine to use but if you don't have a great understanding of it, then it will drive you nuts .

I’ve owned this pedal and played gigs with it for over a year, I think I come back to this video once a month just to refresh myself on what it can do. Thank you man.

Don't understand, I've seen reviews with tons of hits for this, but this guy is on all levels...the most thorough interesting and best. He's my new go-to...much respect.

Refuses to review pitch correction. Still demos the Ring Modulator.

Dude, I had to stop the video just a few minutes in and write this comment. Thank GOD for YOU! I am a true techie but this pedal drove me nuts. I've tried just about every harmony pedal out there - and thought I would go with TC Helicon - but then I found this Boss unit which has a seriously decent and simple harmony set up. I like the harmony so decided to pitch everything else and use it. BUT - the rest of the functions and controls ARE NOT transparent. THANK YOU. You saved me and my ears. Those GAIN and EQ tips you provided are paramount to anyone who wants to use this pedal. AND the ridiculousness of the vocal enhance button - well - I don't feel alone anymore AND you made me laugh and THAT made my day. Thanks again :)

And BTW - don't sell yourself short - You absolutely ROCK. Thanks for the great playing and singing demos. Can't tell you how much they helped.

I would like to know what amp or equipment you are using to get that sound for your vocals and guitar, I would like to have that same sound, thanks, great video !

Finally. The one and only review of VE-8 that actually explains it well. Thanks for doing this. Its a very complicated pedal and I think you know more about it than Boss engineers. I have a love hate relationship with this pedal. Still can't get over the "Double press" to stop the looper. I use a Boss FS-6. However, the choices given to external switches are just terrible. You can only stop the looper from external switch but can't start it. The options for the 2nd switch as somewhat useless too.

It's so refreshing to have a tasteful player demoing these units.

Wonderfull...

Best review/tutorial I've seen. Lots of good information and hidden capabilities. Great production and wonderful sense of humor.

This is one of the best reviews/tutorials I’ve ever seen on the internet. Good job mate. You kept it entertaining all throughout the video.

Probably the best examination of the thing I've seen. Certainly the most honest.

Just fell over this review after my son bought this pedal, fantastic honest overview, presented in a easy going, fun informative way..... thank you for sharing 👍

This was an awesome tutorial. Bought this after months of deliberation about whether I wanted it for my solo rig. It meant going to a bigger pedalboard but I think it was well worth it. However, I knew there was much more I could be doing with this thing and I really appreciate you showcasing all the options. This was an extremely well put together video. Completely agree with you about not showcasing vocal correction. Thanks for taking the time to research all of this. Makes me feel even better about my purchase. Thank you!

Thank you!! You have helped me make sense of this new toy! Your music is wonderful, keep playing!!

Your teaching demo features and performance are excellent! Just bought one and couldn’t figure out how to get it to do what I want. Rather than send it back you just showed what’s possible with lots of fresh ideas. Now excited about the new toy! Thank you so very much!

Six years later and this review still holds up. Best review of this device I've seen. Great job!

The best review of this unit, 'by a country mile'. Well done Thomas and thank you. Can't wait to get mine.

Brilliant and thorough. May you live long enough to review everything out there..., viele Spaß machen.
