Best I've heard so far, its a gear demo video really but I'm very impressed with the guys playing. Combining engineering and musicality to create a dreamed tone, amazing achievement.

Hah! The guy to the right makes such an "oh, man, what a tone!"-face at 0:35

And just before that he makes some microscopic adjustments to the pedals, I struggle to hear less than a 5 degree turn of the knobs at the moment, in fact some of the knobs on my compressor aren't noticeable to my messed up ears at less than 15 degrees

I love these two guys' videos but rarely have the time to watch them all the way through

I thing I also do that when I'm trying to nail a sound, but its just a reflex of thinking that 5 degree move seems to only matter with my boss mt2 as the eq's can get too detailed which is definitly not always a good thing.

Since its weekly I think I watched most of the shows, but the search function on youtube is pretty good once you're in their channel when needed.

It's a great idea to use a switcher like they are doing if you are going for pedals. The biggest problem with pedals without the switcher is playing tap dance to get the right pedals on and others off. With a pedal switcher, you can set up "scenes" in one button that is "lead" with drive/delay/reverb, then a clean button that has chorus/compression etc. Essentially trying to turn the pedals collection in to the functionality of a processor with a control pedal.

That said, I still enjoy pedals and have two pedal boards and one midi controller board with a soul press wah so three in total.

Reason why I went with processors when I was a beginner, always thought of live performance back then and indeed it was helpful on stage and let me focus on the guitar.

Boss released some really nice fx switchers this year but they aren't really affordable Hybrid in theory is what makes most sense to me in a non-specific situation, most modulation fx are digital anyway so having a processor together with analog pedals can work good (most guys like satch., vai does this anyway and was the popular approach of pro-players before they went all axe-fx).

Those framed pedals on the wall are just killer That's a great idea for decorating a studio IMHO

Very true I use both pedals and processor myself these days Though I don't use a pedal switcher, just put a given pedal board in front of my 11 rack and have my one outboard piece (the tube preamp) in the fx loop of the 11 rack
