Winston Psmith Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I'd been looking for one of these for a while now. I'll let Andy tell you about it . . . One thing to note - around that 1:45 point, where he starts playing the G&L clean, then kicks on the CHAOS pedal, you'll hear quite a boost. It's a feature, not a bug, as they say.

I think you and I are in a li'l club, scoring pedals, or a means to an end, that we'd each been wanting for a good long time... Quote "Distortion, Octave, Ring Mod, Synth... " Haahh! That's a lot of perversion all at once... even sounds like a bit of envelope-filter, too. 1 hour ago, Winston Psmith said: One thing to note - around that 1:45 point, where he starts playing the G&L clean, then kicks on the CHAOS pedal, you'll hear quite a boost.

I like the way it sounds there better than the previous, intro passage... 2 Quote Ask yourself- What Would Ren and Stimpy Do? ~ Caevan James-Michael Miller-O'Shite ~ _ ___ _ Leprechaun, Esquire _ ___ _ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyalcatraz Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Nice! My limited experience with Malekko (I have a Helium) tells me you will love the Chaos! 2 Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.

The same fellow, Todd Wolfgram, originally designed the Helium, too. He does a video demo of the Malekko Chaos where it sounds almost controllable. I had one of the earlier, not-quite-prototype models, when Studio Electronics first released the original CHAOS and Helium pedals. There were . . . let's say, conflicting labels on the "Hair" and "Dimension" switches on some of those early models. FWIW, as much as we all enjoy and admire Andy's video demos, I have to say his approach to the CHAOS is a bit . . . restrained. Here's a video from a British fellow who digs into some of the nastier tones - Malekko CHAOS pedal 2 It's louder than hell, and it is NOT a pedal you're going to kick On mid-tune for a solo, unless you want to startle your audience or blow a speaker. For the next week or ten days, I'm still catching up with my work, and my Music life, so I've barely had time to sit down with the new toy, and it's going to take some tweaking. My plan is to put it in the pedalboard with the Bumblebee, the Infinite Jets, the Syntax Error, and the Space Spiral. Not a "normal" Guitar sound to be found among them . . . 2 Quote "Monsters are real, and Ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win."
