Bananana MATRYOSHKA

Damn i keep thinking someone got their bananana today and opening this thread. Lol.
Sorry. We were all relying on you to get yours first...
I will have mine this week. Let me know if you all have any specific questions.

How tall are you in the morning before 8am, are you a different height at the end of the day at around 8pm?

Don't answer that right away, it can wait 'til after you have the Matryoshka.

:) Thanks! I'm doing alright. I wasn't really playing music much for a bit so I didn't come here too much. Well that and my wife was probably going to kill me for being on here and constantly getting massive amounts of GAS.

I think I might snag one of these Bananana pedals. Everything they make is weird as far as I can tell. Definitely want this little synth. Not sure if that's what I'll go for right now though. There's some Digitech and IdiotBox things I want to grab too. This thing is high on the list though. There's a buttload of stuff I want right now. That's the cool thing about being away for a bit. I know nothing about anything from the last year or so.

Good to hear :thumbsup:, apart from not playing music much.
Me either. Haven't been playing much at all. Need to find a band again.

Bananana's "everything weird" tendency is precisely why I love the brand.
 
Need to be more specific, I think, FNM.
Like how soon after arrival should it be forwarded to you, via which courier or just postal? How many boxes it will be contained in, what sort of packing material is involved in its redistribution, expected ETA, will additional goodies be included (gettin' close to Kirstmeis, after all), is the warranty transferable, money-back guarantee, is it insured and for how much... etc?
 
This pedal is sick. I started by tweaking knobs in every single mode and trying to learn it. What I discovered was that it takes a little work to get the level balanced with the clean. But another cool thing is it's an octave pedal. So if you have an OC2 like me, you can run that for the classic sound where the bass tone is still blended in and then use the Bananana for super synthy, sub octave down sounds.

Another thing is you can leave the filter static where you like it and the ctrl at 1oclock and then just focus on the octave knob. From there you will basically be able to use the pedal live and get a lot of sounds by tweaking the octave and then using the colored LED to quickly select the mode you want.

Modes I am really digging are the dirt, bitcrusher, pitch (5th up is nasty) and LFO. Super synthy vibe and you only need to turn on one pedal instead of a chain. It's insanely cool.
