Bill you should do some Moody Blues stuff like on the song Tuesday Afternoon.

[mikeyfatstrings]

I would like to obtain my degree in Effectology. seriously, if you taught a class anywhere in the world, I'd take it.

[wambloerst]

That sounds better than a mellotron to my ears

[rubas07]

¿y donde quedo in the court of the crimson king?

[useless987]

ace!

[Andragon90]

EHXology rules!

[DoubleNickels]

Yeeeaaah the tone you get while playing "Strawberry Fields" is pretty dead f'ing on for playing a completely different instrument.

[OnlyByFishStandards]

[Effectology]

well that is Youtube audio!

Clips at -3.

I now mix at -5 and below.

Youtube is very bad with solo heavy midrange audio.

oh shit this is too much!!

this effectology series are so much fun!

[mouldeck]

that's it... i bought the HOG, 2 weeks before christmas, and i think this video is at least 90% responsible... and i still have to buy presents for my siblings, parents, friends' birthday+christmas...

damn, this is bad!! hahaha

[enjoyincubus1320]

get the fuck outta here

[BonzoMcBonzo]

that organ part totally pwned my face!

[TheGuyFromJackD]

I have the POG, and the organ tones you can make are very convincing, for instance, the POG with a rotary sim, or better yet, the wiggler, play fourths and think Perfect Strangers by Deep Purple.

[bhfam]

nice JEM.

[mouldeck]

god i hate those videos as much as i worship electro harmonix effects for the only reason that i can't afford to buy these effects

the organ sound at 1:40 is incredible!! makes me want to buy a HOG, a polychorus, a memory man hazarai... and rpetty much every other EHX pedal i don't already have

GOD, THIS IS KILLING ME!!

[mouldeck]

i think i have watched this over 100 times today...

although i just thought an EHX attack decay could have been used instead of the volume pedal to remove the attack! ;)

too bad those aren't manufactured any longer!!

[Gashaponcito]

the sound before strawberry fields is just POG2 and Polychorus right? do you think I can get that with a bass?

[Effectology]

The opening drone sound is a HOG and Memory Man delay, The HOG is freezing a Esus chord

and the memory Man is set for Mod/Delay.

With these two pedals you could do the drone on bass if played high up on the neck..

[EnglishBob]

Darn. Now I have to go out and buy more gear. Kids, you'll have to go hungry this month. :)

[mouldeck]

same here!! :'( less the kids and job!

[LemonsNeedHelp]

This was the perfect Effectology because of the hand demonstrations and the pedal layout. Nicely done! Sounds great!

[Chumleh]

Simply fantastic.

[ShyNirvanaDemon]

Amazing.

[trainwreckjoe]

As a huge fan of Gabriel era Genesis, I must say that the Watcher of Skies imitation on guitar is simply amazing. Bravo to the E-H chefs!

[Bluplirst]

EHX has really stepped their game up the last few years!

[porgy08]

Thanks Guys, the visuals definitely helps !!!

Awesome Work !

[itsdonny]

Great as always!

[ldtregent]
