What are the worlds most unusual effects?

I nominate SubDecay's NoiseBox and Death by Audio's Total Sonic Annihilation.

I still think the Mid-Fi Glitch Computer is one of the weirdest effects I've ever heard. It definitely earned a permanent place on my electronic/noise board

I think this one wins because I can't figure out what the hell you're supposed to do with it.

Really, truly, honestly, a Noise Box isn't all that strange. It is a much more usable effect than one might think.

Beavis Audio makes some pretty rad looking stuff that I'd like to try some day.

I've owned a Trogotronic pedal for months that I still can't figure out what the fook 6 of its 8 knobs do, but it sure is fun. Actually, I still haven't even figured out the volume knob, but at least I know which one it is.

Again, not really all that strange in itself, but you can get some freaky weird sounds out of a Boss PS-3.

zvex machine is the most unique pedal ive ever heard/seen..

especially since its the only unit that does the type of sound that it does.

This one's actually pretty simple, just a feedback loop with some tweaks.

I'll throw the Digitech PDS 20/20 in there. Takes chorus/flange/delay to a new level.
