cool new effects


Recommended Posts



The Wireless Midi Controller is not for me and I'm sure drummers won't like the idea LOL! But it is cool! I like Tommy Emmanuel's acoustically bang'en the box with his hands style over the electric drum machine sounds... :cool:
Take care, Larryz

It is just a fuzz...but what a fuzz!

 

JHS Pedals Muffuletta Fuzz Pedal

http://www.jhspedals.com/products/guitar-pedals/muffuletta/

 

That is pretty cool, if you're into various iterations of transistor-based Muffs. My VFE Fiery Red Horse Saturated Fuzz (V1) is a very versatile Muff-based pedal, as well; I bet that you'd really like it.

 

I really liked the V4 or V5 IC/Op-Amp-based EH Big Muff Pi that I had long ago; I'd love to have another such pedal...

I've read a number of reviews of that modeling amp, and they pretty much break down to "WOW!" If you could only spend a weekend in Rev. Billy Gibbons' Amp Shack with that thing . . .

Well...even WITHOUT it, to be honest. Right?

 

True, I'd gladly spend a weekend in there, even without the Kemper, but still, the idea of bringing all those classic tones home with you, in one box . . .

 

Sorry, did I drool on the floor there?

Cool. Sounds great, looks to be an excellent pedal. It'd be great to also hear demonstrations of it fed into overdriven and distorted tube-amps, and/or other overdrive and distortion pedals. (I'm big on doing that with octave-fuzz pedals.)

 

You'd very likely really love the Foxrox Octron (have one, :love: LOVE :love: it) or Octron 2, and the Mu-FX Octave-Divider, the reborn, improved Musitronics Mu-tron Octave Divider (want one).

 

"Hey hey, my my... !" :rawk:

This could be used to control any guitar effect with a control voltage input. :)

 

Loved the synth module! For another approach to CV controllers, I think this is still available for the blow-out price? Hot Hand Wah with ring controller.

 

The Hot Hand Wah also has a CV Out, which sends the signal from the Hot Hand ring controllers, (wired, or wireless) to the CV/EXP In on another effects unit or synth. Yes, the pedal has a pretty large footprint, but for the price, it's worth exploring a new type of controller.

I like that the phaser side of the pedal seems somewhat based on the classic Electro Harmonix Small Stone phaser; most are based on the MXR phasers (particularly the Phase 90). Both are great, but different. I wish I still had the magically perfect '79 Small Stone that I once had...

 

 

Now, my

equals the potential for a lot of funkalicious echo 'n' phase, albeit from two pedals... :cool::2thu:

There is something to be said for pedals that combine multiple functions, but also for those that are specialists...assuming we're just discussing quality pedals, of course.

Mhn-Hmn, agreed.

 

My Strymon Flint is a cool example; three flavors of vintage amp-style tremolo, and three types of reverb; its most classic sounds seem to be those consisting of reverb > tremolo (the reverse order is available), which is the way it is on most vintage amps with on-board reverb and tremolo. This way, the reverb continues to be heard getting chopped-up by the tremolo in-between played notes and chords, and that's what is heard on countless classic records.

 

Now, in my previous post here, I should have posted or alluded to a pedal-order consisting of

 

phaser > echo > reverb

 

as this sounds the best, to me; the place in the sweep of the phase as sliced-up and repeated in each of the trailing echo-repeats rubbing up against that of the continuing phasered (non-echo) signal, and also that of the reverb's reverberations, all mixes together for a particularly heady, vibey texture. A little extra regeneration (more echoes trailing) and a fairly big, wet reverb further enhances this. Try it, you'll hear what I mean.

Some fun, cool, and quirky stuff there! :D:2thu::cool:

 

Hmmmmmmm.... Spiral Light might find that Industrial Electric RM-1N reverb pedal to be interesting... :cool:

Here ya go. I'm sure that some of you sonic perverts- and also some of the nicer ambient sound chasers amongst us- would really enjoy this:

 

Walrus Audio Janus Tremolo / Fuzz w/ dual joystick controls

 

(Currently, temporarily, promotional code Halloween15 can be used when ordering from Walrus Audio to net a 15% discount)

Note the inclusion of a "Blend"-control, for blending between the clean/straight-signal and the fuzz... :cool::2thu:

 

The joysticks look like they could, with care and practice, be manipulated by ones feet while playing...

 

I'd try running reverb through this fuzz and tremolo- that is, fuzzing, and tremolo-chopping, the reverb, but not the dry/non-reverbed "straight" signal from before the reverb, for fuzzed, stuttering sequencer-like hazy clouds of sound fading up and out after and behind my playing.

 

I'd also more conventionally feed it echoes rhythmically-timed (tap-tempo is a friend! to go along with- or rub up against- the tremolo, with or without the fuzz. Likewise reverb.

I have ben looking at the Janus for a while. But I wish they had used a pair of trackball-type controls instead of those joysticks. They'd be much easier to manipulate with a shod foot.

 

For visual reference,there would be a color spot in the center.

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, it would look like a pair of eyeballs in the pedal, but so what?

Might not be a bad idea; might be do-able...

 

Have you brought this up with Walrus Audio?

another approach to infinite sustain: http://www.keithmcmillen.com/labs/strongarm/

 

Hey, that's cool! I like that!

 

And more than just sustain, this seems to impart blooming harmonic-overtones, much like feedback from loud amps and speaker-cabs does. And...

 

"Tilt Detector enhances your choice of harmonics"

 

:crazy::D:laugh: Haahh! Cool. Classic feedback-catching-technique poses rewarded at any volume, no matter how low! :cool::2thu: I like that, too!
