Fairfield Circuitry - THE CLUB

Hi Folks - don’t know where else to put this but this forum seemed like the place.

I’ve been itching for a Shallow Water and I just got an email from Arturia saying their new Lo-Fi Tape plug-in is free until 12/31. Not sure if this is only for product owners or not.

That said, I tried it out and it seems to do a lot of the things the SW promises and the price is certainly right. It will definitely tide me over until I get my hands on one.
 
The Barbershop now has a board buddy-----

Again, from all I've read here, there seem to be many who sing praises for the Accountant so, when I started GAS'ing (when will it end!?!?!?) for another flavour of comp, this one happened to pop up used on the local ka-g-g site and I figured why not?

Have played around with it before and after the BS....I think I'm liking it after. Still bouncing between R at 1 / P at 0 and R at 0 / P at 1......they both sound good to my ears. Setting both pedals volumes to be at unity, and running them together...pretty much all the time. Great combo!!

Finally finally finally quit fudging about things and will have a Randy's Revenge on my board by the end of the week.

I'm also looking for another dirt pedal to go with my MBD2 and You're Doom. Top contender is probably the Lil Fella or maybe the Fifth Gear, but I'm also looking at the Barbershop. Dark horse candidate is an Accountant, since they allegedly are a little gritty and I like the idea of flexibility on my board. Any thoughts on a dirt pedal with some mids in it?

Barbershop is magical, *especially* in the mids.

The Accountant is a best a novelty item, IME; noisy, counterintuitive limited settings, and sounds best when switched off.
