I am very emotional about delay and reverb.

Without watching the video yet, here's my idea: Low gain drive -> Chorus -> Reverb -> Any fuzzy distortion -> Delay (or Boss Space Echo) -> Gaze
EDIT: Nice shout on the Slicer. I have one of the big ones on my board I use in stereo, it makes a lot of cool noises.

nice to see another Egon playing shoegaze

I love this video, is helping a lot w my pedalboard, this shoegaze sound is amazing

[skyygazer]

i just found your channel and i see its the first video thats not a short. I'd love to see something about different tunings, chords, different technique of playing, more in depth cause there not a lot of shoegaze stuff for musician on youtube sadly. I play guitar for almost 20 years and i can't do half what you did you got real talent !

[jasonkesser]

cool stuff man. would even totally check out your music after that pedal journey.

step 1: use pedals most people have never heard.

My methodology is going to my local shop knowing exactly what I want, they don't have it but "this might be just as good", and then I fuck around with the settings.

Love all these sounds. I may have to pick up that rusty fuzz. Another weird delay option is the dd8 with the reverse setting. I turn the time pretty low, the feedback around 1 o clock, and the volume at 12. I have a boss ph3 on the fall setting going into that if my dirt pedals are off. I like to think of it as a bubbling or gurgling noise. Pretty damn fun.

the slicer is sick, I'd love to get it in a mini version with maybe less options.
If anyone knows of an alternative, please let me know! :)

Emo analog crypto bros is the next wave

[AlbinoTuxedo]

God that Jaguar is BEAUTIFUL. Where'd you get it? I've been on the hunt for one for ages 😭

Nice pedal choices. Have you ever used any death by audio pedals? I am also using the slicer as a termalo pedal, I had originally gotten it to use on my synths.

You seem to be doing this on the cheep. You could use a Microcosm, glitches and modulations for days. Maybe a looper, and step up your delay to at least a line 6 DL-4 mark II. Presets. Tap tempo and a looper, and a dual delay. And a Bit crusher would be nice, like the data corruptor for weird solos and monster riffs. I think you have a good start but need to push that board a little further. Good call on the slicer (which im gonna have to get now) and the afterneath.
