Hey, I know this ain't A/T/N stuff, here, but I just saw this, and it blew me away, this guy's looper timing is flawless, as is just about everything else he's doing.

Ok, just to be clear. Dee Dee Ramone is one of my idols. Without Dee Dee Ramone, I wouldn’t have picked up a bass as young skate Punk. With that said, his hip hop album is KING OF ALL CRINGE!!! But he was so wasted during that time, eh....wadaya gonna do. Poor dude had a very tough life.
Enjoy, cringe. It’s so bad its good.
Omg.
Well....maybe not THAT horrible.
The room is ....is........I can't describe it.....
Its......hmmmm.....it simply can't be put into words.
Did you see the documentary about the flick??
Oh man drool city. Are you loving it? That one has been on my list for a while...that setup looks killer, simple yet sooo many sonic possibilities!
Definitely a killer pedal. For my tastes anyway.
Incredibly complex once you really start using it as I previously mentioned.
256 algorithms, but each one can be tweaked ad vitam aeternam. For example an extremely harsh preset can be tweaked to be less aggressive and vice versa with more "normal" ones. So it basically is bottomless pit of tones.
Construction is flawless. Even a high gain totally destructive settings it is dead silent.
(Like playing bass into the geiger, when you stop playing there's zero hum or feedback, very very impressive. )
But, it is the geiger counter, its meant to be experimental and tweaked. Don't expect something like a low gain setting to play mustang sally at the bar gig.
I think it will definitely become a mainstay in my mini basement lab. I already recorded some ideas and tests with promising results.
Already found about 3 or 4 things I used to do on the daw that now I can do without the dang zombie screen. (Saturators, in the red compression when mastering, dirt, overdrive,.....etc....) But I can't stack Saturators like in a DAW...unless I get 3 more GC.
not gear related or bass related, but pretty interesting about having a (for the most part) diy process.

IMO, diy is the way to go.
I challenge anyone to get a record deal nowadays WITHOUT A DANG RECORD FIRST!!!!!
Gone are the days of “ I saw those guys live, you gotta hear them. We must have them on our label.”
My 2 grumpy cents
I’m freaking jealous that Berne got to hang with Braxton. Not the first time I read Braxton is an awesome guy to talk to.

i got to meet braxton outside the venue at nickelsdorf, austria. just shooting the breeze. funny guy. very mellow. wearing a cardigan sweater. not presumptuous at all.
One I wish met was David S Ware. (While on the subject of awesome sax players)
Maybe I'll bump in to Braxton someday. He often played in Québec at the Victoriaville Musique actuelle fest.
So when you guys are talking "dub", would you include stuff like Bluetech? Because I loves me some Bluetech.
Yessir.
That pedals sounded awesome in clips I watched.
Give feedback if you so desire.
indeed (and i was laughing to/about myself when that was going down).
i’ve been thinking about one since they came out. i had the opportunity to do a trade for something that didn’t click with me. so here it is.
my brief experience is that i’m getting some nice things out of it. there are some synergies between the expression knob and exp assign switch that i didn’t quite expect. ended up making the pedal a little more useful when i stumbled on it.
Just got my Time Shadows and it's amazing. Instant Anime movie. I'm not an ambient/experimental player by any stretch, but this pedal is changing my mind fast. Here's the start of my ambient board. It sounds huge with just these pedals.
