ha ha i used to have the "buzz box" (octave distortion) from that line, it sucked for guitar but was fantastic on keyboard/synth

yeah the buzz box and meat box and gonkulator modulator from that time period all go for crazy crazy money on ebay now

Which is the one that Sonic Youth makes fun of in 1991: The Year Punk Broke?
― how's life, Wednesday, 29 May 2013 23:17 (ten years ago) link
probably the grunge pedal from dod, which is worth basically nothing in the collector market

these mooer pedals are BADASS by the way, i knew they would be cool and small and cheap, but i didnt expect them to sound nearly this good irl. def exceed the hamfisted youtube demos floating around out there

Really?! I have a Meat Box that I got for $20 used about 10 years ago. Limited applications, but I kind of dig it.

Anyone know a pedal that sounds like a Klemt Echolette tape delay?
― Poliopolice, Friday, 14 June 2013 21:46 (ten years ago) link
hmmm. let me do some research, that's a pretty crazy tape delay. off the top of my head, im wondering if the catalinbread echorec would do it.

― Hi i am your great fan suces (jjjusten), Friday, 14 June 2013 22:06 (ten years ago) link
It certainly looks like similar in color, though not sure about sound based on the videos. is the skreddy echo in the ballpark too?
― Poliopolice, Saturday, 15 June 2013 01:24 (ten years ago) link
The good news here is that this video
http://youtu.be/jUxr4RZL6IQ
Is from catalinbreads feed. That's probably as much as I am willing to say.
― Hi i am your great fan suces (jjjusten), Saturday, 15 June 2013 04:04 (ten years ago) link
And hey if you aren't feeling patient, the earthquaker disaster transport sr hits a lot of the right notes I think

― Hi i am your great fan suces (jjjusten), Saturday, 15 June 2013 04:13 (ten years ago) link
Really the easy answer is that you should buy a plane ticket to mn from wherever you are and try them all out at my store :)
― Hi i am your great fan suces (jjjusten), Saturday, 15 June 2013 04:14 (ten years ago) link
Got a chance to use the Disaster Transport SR and it's indeed fab. If I wasn't so hung up on the Moog delay I use now, I'd be saving up for it

Ok this month, I pull the trigger on devi ever stuff I think. Been a huge fan since the effector 13 days, and fuck it, she deserves the money. Unfortunately, I am having a baffling time picking out which to go with - anybody have thoughts? http://www.deviever.com/fx/

can i use this as a general pedal talk thread since i can't remember what any of the old ones were called? i mean i should probably just scrap together enough spare change for a new pedal and go play @ jjj's candy store for an afternoon but does anyone have impressions on that crowther hot cake thing? i had seen demos and stuff in the past and they didn't leave much of an impression but what the dude is doing w/ the tele's vol knob in this one makes me think i would keep it forever.

haha trust me, actually having money is not a requirement to play shit at my shop, this fact is proven every day.

hahaha. but i want to come home with a new toy! august is triple paycheck month otherwise i wouldn't be looking at any pedals anywhere right now so soon probably

so added the budda pedals to the shop, now getting together an order to add the devi ever stuff. which is daunting because she makes like 45 different fuzzes. anybody have any faves they want to recommend?

haha and thx to recent dad brain i didnt realize that i already posted something abt this in the thread. sigh.
i am of a mixed mind abt the budda pedals - they sound great but man, they have that terrible graphics disease i think. not that it should matter but hey, it matters:

oh and also i got in the new idiotbox dimension x and it is, per usual, batshit crazy:

My favorites of hers are the Bit and Hounds Tooth, but those might not necessarily be the ones with the broadest appeal.
― doom & gloom from the boys allowed in the room (how's life), Friday, 23 August 2013 16:15 (ten years ago) link
i was planning on buying the bit, and i really like the houndstooth as well, so those both probably will make the list. basically my starter list right now is

this is an interesting thing that we are probably going to stock:

i am actually more intrigued by the upcoming ouroboros (its in the laboratory section) - crossover separated dual effects loops sounds like it could be both super functional and super crazy.

And just added 2 new lines
Devi ever (!!! Been waiting to do this for years)
And super promising upstart Vick Audio. Rams head muff clone with tone mod for $99! Reissues of pedals that no one gives a shit about other than me (Jordan vico vibe)! A fucking Sam Ash/Astro Fuzz clone! Colorsound fuzz for $69! Only one other dealer in the world (literally) that seems to be a shitheel that doesn't bother to actually stock any of his shit. I am overcome by geeeeeeek.

Plz note, his YouTube demos kind of suck but the stuff sounds awesome IRL. Graphics are not awesome, but handwired perfboard versions of $$$$ pedals for $100 or less? Crazytown.

Colorsound fuzz for $69!
That's insane! When I was in the market for one I couldn't find it for less than $250. Ended up going with a Guyatone (tiny orange dealie) which worked out great.
