Glitchy pedals

[moon-bass]

I've been messing with some glitchy pedals lately - bit crushers, glitchy fuzzes, some wierd delays. I saw this on a other thread -

And was intrigued by something that would replicate warped vinyl (when I was younger I would set old lps on my radiator to warp them because I liked the sound)..

What other pedals will do warped vinyl?

What are your favorite gitchy pedals? Would love to hear your picks!

Recovery Effects does some cool stuff. I have an early version Cutting Room Floor, and a Sound Destruction Device. HXFX is littered with many cool glitchy fun times. Many delays that modulate, induce tape style wow and flutter, and a sliced looper that is captivating.
Count to 5 is a classic already, deservedly so.

Instead of looking for glitchy effects I like to play the ones I have and get them to misbehave. The SA C4, octavers and other pitch shifters are easy to get quirky as well as some combinations on the Zoom pedals which also are loaded with fun. I use those sounds a good bit when creating sound effects for the cartoon series.

If you're looking for a fun delay to play the @Sushi Box FX Echosaurus is excellent, quiet and has all sorts of tricks from Hank Marvin classics to Doppler effects and Slapback to self oscillation, lots of wow and wobble changing speed, swell or heads.

Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl for one. I use an EHX Canyon for this - there's a tape delay mode with some warping and distortion that can be dialed in, and the DMM mode vibrato can get you there too.

Delay with an LFO controlling time.

High on my "don't need but want" list is the Malekko Charlie Foxtrot. In addition, the SolidGoldFX NU-33 Vinyl Engine has recently caught my attention for a range of lo-fi-ers in a box.

Ehzi & Aka Polarized Flutter is a mean son of a gun for its fuzzed tape stop abilities, too

That NU-33 looks like a lot of fun

Demedash T160 VHS delay does a great warp.

Really surprised no one has mentioned the Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water yet. It's probably the most musical warped-vinyl pedal there is (IMHO). I like it so much I have two so I can have the effect with my stereo synths.

The For Parts & Repair is more like a poor man's Generation Loss, and I can confirm it's a great pedal.

As for glitching, I love my Charlie Foxtrot.

Has anyone here used a Demedash T60 on a bass? Thinking I'll pull the trigger but looking for any feedback.

The Hungry Robot Wardenclyffe can get a nice lo fi warble/warped vinyl sound.

High on my "can burn some cash on something cool" list! It seems to have a ton of potential, esp with upper tessitura harmonies and all, or in front of a filtered reverb etc

There are few with more glitchy potential than Empress Zoia. You have all your usual effects, like overdrive, fuzz, delay, reverb, pitch shifting, etc. and also granular effects. And you can modulate just about any parameter on any of them via LFOs (including random ones), envelopes, sequences, expression, pitch detection, transient detection, ASDRs, various math modules, or chained combinations of those.

Sky and or CPU are the limits.

but yes you can definitely make a warped record sound in Zoia easy. It even has oscillators including noise so you could mimic pops and crackles.

Meet Maude comes to mind as well.

Tone Butcher makes some really cool glitchy weirdo noisy pedals.

I can’t believe I forgot about the Air Trash by Mattoverse. Perhaps the glitchiest pedal I own.

Air Trash redux. Since I got it, it’s been little more than a novelty. Just too noisy and unpredictable, only fun for a little while. I had never tried it outside of a buffered signal chain until yesterday. This pedal doesn’t play well with buffers. Placed a passive pickup emulator in front and the difference, while not extreme, was notable. It crossed into the realm of manageable. Still crazy, still glitchy, dynamic and weird, but inspiring. A couple of long solo jams and I’m hooked, can’t wait to bring it to a group jam.
