Looking for new pedal reviews

[Confuzzled]

I know one of the threads started straying to reviews by just nick, andy, rheindhart, etc...

Who do you go to for your pedal reviews? I'm getting sick on the endless noodling and want something that gives me the low down on the gear without too much bullshit.

[D.o.S.]

I just ask about them here.

I look to these guys for "interesting" pedals:

Kent (uglycasanova)

Dennis Kayzer

Rectal Hygienest

East Stomp Boutique

And of course Knobs

[D.o.S.]

those are all ILFers.

… and with the exception of maybe UC & ESB, they're not particularly proper "reviews" either.

Sure, they're demonstrations of a sort, but viewers/listeners may not be able to actually get a good sense of the pedal in question.

It's a difficult question to answer.

I do like being able to tell what all the features of a pedal do, but I don't necessarily wanna hear somebody explain them.

Also, UG is now doing mostly synth stuff on his new channel, "smog filter", don't know if he'll continue the other channel.

I thought I was the only guy crazy about manuals. I read them a few times before buying, then another one when it's on its way, then another one when it's on my hands, then I start playing it lol.

I've never seen a single or even list of sources that provide meaningful info.

I just search and read and listen to a few demos and figure it out from there.

I read manuals for gear all the time. Lots of times that's the only way to find out everything it can do. And even then that's no guarantee that you'll know anything (the manual for the dd500 is useless).

[rfurtkamp]

Interesting on the DD500 manual being useless, it made sense to me (not having said pedal) but I understand the current Boss/Roland topography and manual-writing enough to know that it just covers "what does this parameter perhaps do"

[tremolo3]

Oh yeah, that DD-500 manual is lame as fuck, I still bought the pedal because Boss.

I miss the sexy synth lady.

Same here, I follow all of these 5 great youtube channels, as well as Eivind's channel (Irerror), Proguitarshop, SimonTheMagpie, and Pedal Of The Day. LongFallBoots too-that's a great one for fuzz demos.

those are all ILFers.

Eivind August=iRerror
Rectal Hygienest=Uncle Grandfather
UglyCasanova=UglyCasanova
East Stomp Boutiqe=DarkAxel
Knobs=askashrub

Who's Dennis Kayzer? Didn't know he was on ILF

D.o.S., obviously.
