I got a loan of an AdrenaLinn (original model) from a friend and it seems... interesting. Though I have no idea how to use it. Maybe a month of playing around with it will allow me to do something other than accidentally trigger drums and occasionally produce wacky sounds.

I have this fuzz. Pretty happy with it and it can get surprisingly "musical".

yeah that thing is a dead on Mosrite Fuzzrite silicon V3 clone (the one with the 2 orange encapsulated circuits. sprague?), but unlike the fuzzrite there is actually a range between off and total fuzz annihilation. We did a head to head comparison and i swear, blindfolded you would not be able to tell the difference at the max gain setting. i love that pedal.

still dunno what I'm doing with this. The same friend also loaned be a Tonebone Trimode distortion. It sounds very very nice. A little too nice. I have no space for such well-rounded hi-fi tones in my music.

jjj is the Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl as great as it appears?
(If yes then we might talk about you shipping some stuff to the UK since I will have to go to a US dealer for it whichever way I try and buy it.)

Whoa. Just checked out a demo for that. So many knobs and switches!
― how's life, Tuesday, 19 August 2014 12:11 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, I think it would work really well in some of the radio-based stuff that I do. (The plan would be to artifically 'age' live radio broadcasts.) Also you should be able to get really controlled glitching from it.
― and she's crying in a stairwell in Devon (aldo), Tuesday, 19 August 2014 12:15 (nine years ago) link
the warped bliss is absolutely as amazing as it seems, yes. whats even better is that it was designed by someone who understands UI on a pedal I guess? meaning that all of the insane tweaks and features are incredibly accessible without the whole press this button and hold it for 4 seconds then turn this knob stuff that most pedal makers get caught up in with digital control. why no one else ever thought of external dipswitches is beyond me, because it just straight up makes sense.

Do you ship to the UK? If so, then I'll hit you up in mid-October (when I get back from holiday) with an order - I may well add in the yellow Mooer compressor and maybe something else depending on how reckless I feel.
― and she's crying in a stairwell in Devon (aldo), Tuesday, 19 August 2014 15:47 (nine years ago) link
oh yeah, I'll ship anywhere, although i'll need to check up on any changes wrt UK ship rules etc, to figure out what the best deal of the minute is. just to get this out of the way right now, I can't dodge the customs declaration, way too risky now that I am in the process of building a real deal online store (well reverb store linked to my website unless i get a better idea).
― Everyone is awful except you. Wait, no, you are also awful. (jjjusten), Tuesday, 19 August 2014 15:51 (nine years ago) link
Aye, no worries, most online retailers don't do 'gift' declarations these days in any case. A couple of months to think about what else I might fancy then.

Can anyone recommend me a good wah for around $100? My Cry Baby that I've had for a decade or so is starting to get noisy.

Anyone? Or is the CryBaby the standard here? The only other models I can find are represented by guitarist I hate.
― Heez, Thursday, 4 September 2014 21:09 (nine years ago) link
Honestly, there are some great wahs out there, but they're going to be way more than $100. In that range, the crybaby is going to be the way to go, unless you can find a ibanez wd7 and can get over the fact that it looks awful but sounds great.
― you must have me confused with my stacked as fuck and imposing friend (jjjusten), Thursday, 4 September 2014 21:27 (nine years ago) link
can you still find vox 848s for 100ish used? that used to be my go-to but I've been wah-less for like 6 years now...

when I plug in my Boss RC-20XL the 'loop quantize', 'loop phrase', 'write' and 'manual' lights light up, and it doesn't do anything else. No amount of pressing buttons makes a difference, and there's no sound passing through it. Tried different power supplies and batteries, all the same. What's wrong with it? Is it knackered? Will I have to pay for repairs?

I have the worst ebay habit ever. I'll be getting drunk at some point over the weekend and looking at pedals on ebay. I'll see some pedal that is scheduled to end that night and is currently going for a low price. So I put in a higher bid, telling myself that I'm just doing it to bid the price up for the seller and someone will probably come along at the last minute and snipe me. And then I wake up in the morning the proud purchaser of a Boss DD-7!
I've bought three pedals this way in 2014.

next time the urge arises, channel that energy into buying a fine pedal from your good friend jjjusten
just got the dr. scientist Bitquest in. like everything that dude does, it's one of the coolest pedals in the shop. take all the effects that you just maybe might not want to devote pedal borad space to, throw them in a single tall mxr sized enclosure, and tadah.
