Code Orange's Reba Meyers' Expression Pedal Wizardry | EarthQuaker Devices

Reba Meyers sits down at Electric Company in Akron, Ohio to show us how she uses expression control with her favorite EQD pedals. This is a sneak peek of unreleased Code Orange songs you won't hear anywhere else! In this 20-minute guitar improvisation, Reba takes vocals from Code Orange songs and reimagines them over an improvised bed of music. Some new songs she performs include “But A Dream, “Circle Through”, and “Mirror” from the upcoming Code Orange album “The Above” (out Sept. 29th, Blue Grape Music).

Reba primarily showcases expression control with the Aurelius Chorus (tied to the rate) as well as with the Avalanche Run and Astral Destiny. She also experiments with the Rainbow Machine and Data Corrupter heavily on her drum tracks, creating super saturated and distorted tones.

“I was inspired by the expression elements of their pedals. I recently got my hands on the Aurelius, and that really started this off for me, showcasing all the elements and the dynamics of the pedals and how far you can go”.

Don't forget to pre-save the new Code Orange album, “The Above”, out September 29th.

Watched her live performance with Marilyn Manson. Rock solid, raised the networth of the whole show.

Reba's emo roots are really showing in the second song! Very cool stuff!

Any time i See a video title say Code Orange Reba Meyers pedals/rig/guitar or anything like that I click it right away. I saw them open for slipknot at knotfest los angeles, I’ve never heard of them before but I instantly became a fan Reba and jaimes stage presence blew me away, the whole band was sick!

[MrJohnMignacca]

All her work she has done over the years has been a absolute treasure. ❤

[playeveryday]

[gs]

Bell harmonics in Dreams and Mirror were so good!

[Thearcherfl]

The real hero is the Jazz chorus 120 in the background. JK Reba is amazing.

Would love to hear a solo album from Reba.

[Pickwick]

You’re so talented, very impressive, thank you

[nicolasbeaudry]

I love this instead of the extra heavy stuff. I resonate more to me. Don’t take me wrong this is intense in her own way… more in a stoner jam mode . I freaking love it❤❤❤❤

[SamCaseyFromSouthlake]

2:30 This completely reframed how I think of the Rainbow Machine, coming from a world of modular.

Will listen to this album! Absolutely floored with this performance

[deztruct]

That's a lot of lamps btw

[markmckeowntheehyperstation]
