Stoner/DOOM Bassists thread part 37: Ancient Alien Fuzz

[dozicusmaximus]

I should start recording my farts and processing them... I bet I could get some cool sounds for clubstep.

I personally think dunwich's pedal designs are too small. I need a pedal big enough I can prop it up on my lap and eat a hungry man dinner on it. Table sized fuzz please.

Over 5 1/2 Tons of Fuzz!
Engage switch with a sledgehammer.

Anyone an amptweaker fan? This is supposed to be coming out soon. Looks cool.

My guitar player uses the TightMetal pedal. I haven't messed around with it much, but by all accounts they're damn good pedals. I think it sounds pretty good, but I'd need to mess around with it myself to really form a strong opinion one way or the other. I do want to try that bass fuzz, though.

one just needs ask for such a thing

if I built an ancient aliens fuzz pedal it would have the title in two lines in Impact font all caps

"I am not saying it was aliens that made this fuzz pedal"

"but it was aliens"

[DethByDoom]

Alien fuzz… I'd say throw in an attack control ala a pog 2 and a usable auto wah or oscillation.

Ah! Give it an on off and an oscillation switch.

Send a prototype to Juan Alderete

[JoeVictim]

Bring on the cool links. This galaxy is ready to surf.

I'm not even sure what you could put into a fuzz that big... flux capacitor? Maybe design it from one of those old arcade table games so I can play pacman during cigarette breaks at practice. Tempting...

When I read this, it made me think of the old paddle controllers from the atari days. Giant knobs please. And joysticks. Man I need to start designing.

I bet with a pedal that big... you'd start to have alice in wonderland syndrome.

[JoeVictim]

Hey Laz, I love your spotify list. Thanks for putting it together.

[Lazarus.Bird]

No prob! There's probably a lot more I could add to it now. I threw that together for my friend awhile back, who I knew liked "rock" but was unfamiliar with stoner rock.

Alien fuzz deffinitiately needs an awkward shaped inclosure.

Yeah... like an aphex punch factory, but pointier.

[DethByDoom]

Laz-radio. Sounds legit.

hahaha so if we can make a true reverse delay, that actually plays the delayed note before you hit the string.... will we have created the first true time machine?

I was thinking of something like the enclosure landmine pedals uses or arbiter used, but in polished aluminum.

Circular enclosure called the Starship/UFO with built in Fuzz, Delay, Oscillation, whatever else you cant fit in there. That would be cool.

And, it has to shoot some kind of laser. Even if its just a lame laser pointer.

[Lazarus.Bird]

Speaking of lasers, ordered this shirt http://www.indiemerchstore.com/item/16994/

Hmmmmmm maybe it should be a theremin, an octave fuzz, phaser, and shimmer verb all in one pedal. That would be totally 70's retro spacey. And then instead of an LED for on, we could use a laser pointer (or 4). It should also have a small built in fog machine as well.
