    Howdy everyone,
    So one of the projects I'm involved in is a noise experimentation/avant garde post rock band. My effects setup right now is MXR Carbon Copy(x2), MXR Flanger, MXR Analog Chorus, Lotus Blue, and a Volume Pedal.

    Can anyone think of anything that would help or that I'm missing for effects? I love the setup but I'm always looking for more :)

    I don't know what the Lotus Blue is but it seems like you need more dirt.

    Oops got one of those too! The lotus blue is possibly the ugliest dirtiest dirt ever (in a good way). I also usually have my gain/tubes turned up to 8 so I'm good on dirt/distortion :)

    Thanks for the ideas though!

    FUZZ! Go for a nice heavy fuzz, such as the SS/BS Team Awesome Fuzz Machine. Sounds massive.

    Tremelo. Ring is cool too, but it takes a lot of practice to use it well. Same with a pitch shifter. I gave up before I got good with one but I can definitely see where they would be an awesome tool.

    I think The WMD Geiger counter would be a useful pedal for a noise experimentation/avant garde post rock band.

    WMD - Geiger Counter Digital Destruction

    Use it with an expression pedal for some insane bit reduction and down sampling on the fly.
