Am I the only one here who has no clue who Ryan Adams is ?

Everything he do, he do it for you.

Holy shit, that got me good

Ok, I looked at his wikipedia page but I still don't get the references

Sorry, Ryan Adams is just a popular singer songwriter dude who made a pedal with JHS. The last couple of posts are references to 90s singer songwriter Bryan Adams, who, as far as I know, has never collaborated with any pedal manufacturers, although he did ride a massive guitar like a bucking bronco in the video for his song Can't Stop This Thing We Started. That was pretty rad.

He also really really hates being confused with Brian Adams.

It cuts him like a knife.

I'm really stoked on this unit. I assumed it would sound excellent which from the few clips I've now heard it appears to. I love the layout on their reverb which is the same as this. (Plus they both look great which is important for tone). But now hearing about the analog drive channel (huge!) and the dual engines for stacking, running in parallel, or using different delays on left and right when running stereo as well as different subdivisions possible for each and the ever growing presets that will eventually come.... where do I place my pre-order???

I know - their site has nothing on this yet but this will likely be an instant get for me.

Hard for me to understand Ryan Adams hate. Seems to be a good dude who enjoys gear and makes a point to highlight up and coming builders. But, shit, the internet finds a way to work itself up into a frenzy for most anything, so who knows.

I have no clue what his music is like. But, yeah, every time I see him in something gear related he seems like a pretty cool cat, with interests that would be right at home here.

Oh baby, here it is: https://www.instagram.com/p/BPijVq-jA2n ... lectronics

damnit, I finally got everything to fit on one board, it's the reason I no longer have a HOG on there. I'm sure they would make their pedals smaller if they could

Confused about the Ryan Adams hate? 80s graphics are everywhere on everything...theres quite a few pedals that have that schtick and none can claim a hint of ownership to that look.

FWIW, I was just laughing about the fact that RA, who was just in the middle of pedal related controversy with Midnight, has suddenly popped up, again, with a company a lot of people hate/would never have anything to do with.
I still don't know anything about Ryan Adams, and I'm not really into his music, either.

Best of so far: Tensor, Rubberneck, Russian Pickle. Rubberneck is one that finally gets everything right (tap, modulation, gain, momentary oscillation, trails, BBD). Minus MIDI and crazy/unnecessary exp control, it could dethrone the Moog delays.

Curious about the new Hologram pedal, but I'm trapped in Finding Dory for the rest of the afternoon while my sick kids sneeze directly into my face. The Hologram stuff seems super interesting but kinda flawed...not sure why.

Wait. Are there clips yet? Gimme!

[Dandolin]

IDK if you can call it a "clip" but you saw that jawn with Nick Reinhardt on instagram?

I'm with you, the more I wait for a real demo, the tensor I get....

[UglyCasanova]

Reinhardt playing a pedal rarely tells me much about what the pedal sounds like/is doing.
