Electro-Harmonix Cathedral stereo reverb pedal demo with Dave Weiner

[buzzby4465]

Great Demo !!!

[Waffleman777]

Can I use an expression pedal with this?

[wkoontz]

That's how a pedal demo should be done. Thanks Dave!

[sexyguitarboy69]

Nice demo, Dave. Too bad the reording was not made in stereo since it's a stereo pedal.

[clasicelectriguitar]

Gracias Dave!! Buena revisión.

[buddyhagan]

I have this pedal, have seen all the demos before and after I bought it, and no one has explained it's potential more fully than you Dave. Just updated all of my presets based on some of your demonstrations. Thanks. I have a new place to come to check out demos before buying new pedals. A real "players" demo.

[2703Massi]

Thank you so much, I'm buying it for sure

[mewsic156]

ALL THE WAY UP ... here

[wanabeknut]

great detailed review

[norim13]

Thanks, you made me laugh at 9:50

Where can I buy one of those professional socks? xD

[joshie4330]

I wish they made the tempo button a preset selector like on the POG 2. That's literally the ONLY thing wrong with this pedal.

[TheShredfester]

Great demo Dave!!! First class for real!!!

[liebens92]

Great demo ! Thanks !

[alexstrat]

Hi dave, awesome demo! You make me buying this pedal, I'm sure too now! So thanks ;-)

What guitar and amp are you using in the demo please? I really love the sound! Thanks

[DAVEWEINER]

@alexstrat - PRS Custom 24 into a Vox AC30HW.

[alexstrat]

@DAVEWEINER Thanks. I'm sorry, I didn't hear in this video, you said it! :-/

I'm thinking to buy it tomorrow. Thank you very much

[mo28mabini]

concise, clear and orderly HD review. thanks for sharing.

[SONGSTICKS]

ABSOLUTELY SUPERB REVIEW / DEMO.

No faffing about, just straight to the point explaining and showing all it's settings and controls.

SPOT ON DAVE !!!

[Razwithz]

I'm between this and Strymon's BlueSky, I really love the shimmer the BlueSky has got, but this sounds much more realistic to me!

what'd you ppl choose? o.O

[odallard]

@Razwithz You just answered your own question; if the overall sound is better, then you can do without all the bells and whistles. IMO, the plate and room sound very alike on both, so the tie-breaker would be that the Cathedral does a better job at emulating springs whereas the blueSky's spring sounds like nothing more than a glorified ping-pong delay. If you're really that much of a sucker for the shimmer and don't care for Spring, well, that's a reason to consider the blueSky instead.

[Razwithz]

@odallard hhhmmm that last part is what i was looking for, thanks man :D

[Lachy101]

nice demoo man

[jakeyboy2929]

on the presets, how many can it hold? and also say you have a preset saved like you had (short reverb) and you were playing with a massive reverb and for some section of the song you needed a short reverb could you basically press the white button and the short reverb (preset) come on? thanks, Jake

[watsontheman]

@jakeyboy2929 you can save one preset of each reverb mode, and yeah when you press the mode button ( the white one) the preset will load inmediatly!...this thing rocks :D

[jakeyboy2929]

@watsontheman just bought mine brand new for £114.00 on the bay, cant wait for it to come, sold both my ehx freeze and alesis quadraverb for this beast!!!

[watsontheman]

@watsontheman u wont regret man sounds beautiful!...never tried it on stereo but everyone says it sounds gigantic so i will one of this days xD its also very versatile and you can achieve some really nice coldplayish tones (big fan of coldplay here) cheers

[geetarplayer38]

Your tone throughout this entire video sounded phenomenal.

[cowboytonydee]

Why buying this if you have an axe fx?

[ItsA6StringThing]

@cowboytonydee Because Axe FX is not the greatest product ever to exist. That is the Wattson Superfuzz tied with the Devi Ever Shoegazer, of which neither are in the Axe FX but are in my pedalboard.

This is designed for people who are serious about reverb tone, ambient/shoegaze musicians love these kinds of pedals.

[xfmguitaridol]

Nice socks Dave!

[emmaspd]

SOLD!

[vhalen101]

Very cool review....great pedal. Always loved their reverbs. Great job on covering so many of the features for us. Thanks!

[Lambrechtsen]

Sound on sound made easy, cool!

[KYLYKaHYT]

Very concise and helpful demo of this pedal's features. Thank you so much! :)

[nblax41]

Can you have a preset for each mode, or does the pedal only save one in total?

[BeyondtheBeyondmusic]

@nblax41 Yes a preset for each mode :D I just bought one.

[onixtheone]

in your opinion what is the best guitar effects processor?

[ItsA6StringThing]

@onixtheone Big Muff

[Sbazz89]

hey man. Love your videos. Great stuff.

[bikerpastor71]

absolutely awesome demo.  I have thought about getting this pedal and now after seeing you explain all the features, unlike other demos, I have put it to the top of my list.

[underdog7676]

Was it running through an fx loop or the front? Sounds great btw :-)

[DAVEWEINER]

@underdog7676 - in front.  AC30 Handwired doesn't have a loop.

[kiklogik]

the "infinite" feature is awesome! thanks a lot for this demo!

[Evanhalf]

Amazing demo! I've been playing for a good 8 years now. I think it's time I build myself a pedalboard.

[iceman10129]

I have to stop watching these...makes me want all of these toys!

[buscobanda]

Best review ever of this pedal Dave, i was thinking in buying it, now i'm totally sure of. Thanks!

[DAVEWEINER]

@buscobanda - cheers bro!

[DAVEWEINER]

@flem187 - just did a big video shoot with them. Should be live this week.

[username125418]

@DAVEWEINER so the "infinite" feature is like having the ehx FREEZE pedal built in to the unit?

[DAVEWEINER]

@username125418 - I believe so yes.

[caseycurran]

@username125418 Not exactly because only the reverb (wet portion) of the signal is sustained. Unlike the Freeze where the original signal (or whatever is put ahead of it), is sustained.

[heoTheo]

great for halilujah jeff buckley. :)

[refreshingapathy]

The ability to kinda drone a note or chord is pretty darn cool. Good review, thanks Dave!

[stymye]

it's cool that you used a christmas hymn for the demo

[nothingislogical]

Very nice demo. Seems like you can do some cool shoegaze/post-rock types of ambient stuff with it. I might have to add this one to my pedal board.

[ForbiddenHaze]

That tone is amazing. Gives me a boner.

[xloserx4xchristx]

I'm using the Flerb in fixed mode, with high resonance. It gives a sound similar to the Line 6 octave reverb.

[xloserx4xchristx]

@xloserx4xchristx Great demo btw, Dave. I really like the ones you've been doing recently.

[DAVEWEINER]

@xloserx4xchristx - cheers!

[atila120]

awesome amp!

[genshikashmir]

I came...

[arpraron]

So 1 preset can be saved for each individual mode?

[francescotaranto90]

@arpraron Yes that's correct. Pretty awesome pedal right?

@DAVEWEINER Great demo! Keep 'em coming, you're very good at this I think!

[ilPitproductions]

amazing!

[KimAvlastenok]

Damn this sounds sweet! I'm gonna have to check this out no matter how much it snows

[RingoFreakingStarr]

making that reverb infinite sounds like heaven :)

[DaShortyJ]

Woah this has a lot more features than I thought it did...definitely going to pick one up!

[aleksandersucharski]

grail spring. no need for other modes :D super sweet pedal.

[BeyondtheBeyondmusic]

@aleksandersucharski Best modes are grailflerb and Infinite.

[RedNeckEDU]

Sweet pedal.
