Almost 99 % of the marketing videos or soundclips tend to have sterile, unbalanced sound and horrible settings on the gear. The players usually sound generic and uninventive, like they aren't even trying to put any energy in the performace. I think it's weird, since there's so many talented people around and most of them would do this type of work practically for free.
Why does official gear demos always suck?

This is our ultra high gain amp, intended for use in the most punishing audio terrorism in the world. Here's our director of marketing, Jim, playing blues licks on a Strat to show you what it can do. BRUTAL.

Yeah, when I watch Ola's videos I just think to myself, "which amp is he going to make sound awesome this time?"

Yeah holly shit they made that pedal sound terrible. Good job idiots.
They really need to stop having bedroom guitarists demo gear, they have no idea what they are doing.

I love watching Ola's videos. I wish more people here on this forum would do gear review videos like him, but broaden the horizon to pedals, guitars, cabs, etc.
If I had a camera I would try it, but mine sucks. It's a smart way to get endorsements and get free gear just sent to you.

That would be awesome! But please do it in the style of the Swedish epic meal time.

Why do "metal" pedals always sound like thing nasally shit?
Even a modded metal zone that was dialed in a little better still sounded like shitty shit to me.
