AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!! It's so pppuuurrrtttyyyy.

Can GAS result in a legitimate trip to the ER? Because i'm pretty sure I am having a heart attack right now. No, seriously

 

[behndy]

HAH!! DELICIOUS!!

we could be twinsies! but, you'd be smacking me on the hands every time i reach for a passing hawt grrL's bun-bun's because "I'm the ELDEST. I was born 12 MINUTES BEFORE YOU. Behave.".

Nice one Bryan,

Am I right in thinking that's the standard finish ?
Is that a gloss or a flat matt finish ?

Who will post clipz the quickest ?

 

[Bryan R. Tyler]

I do my best to not smack the hands of anyone that's about a foot taller than me My wife is a twin, and she argues that she's the youngest of all the kids because she was born six minutes later than her twin.

Working now so I can't do any clips (don't even know if my recording interface will work), but I'll try to get some tonight. It's so pretty next to my Oxide- makes me want to order a Xerograph Deluxe even though I don't really need one.

 

[Bryan R. Tyler]

Mine's a matte etched finish, like pretty much all IE pedals I've seen.

 

[behndy]

heh. your's looks like that racer they were going to hurtle into the sun for the climax (giggity) of the Disaster Area show.

"man... that is black. that's just... so.... BLACK."

 

[behndy]

hee! clip ADDED.

again, sorries for the sloppiness. just had way too much fun with it. 'bout to go dive back in.

RARRRRR.

 

[DannDubblewe]

YES! YES! GOD YES! It sounds SO FRIGGEN good and I'm only 20 seconds in!! AIJGAWIJGA(WJK$Gawgjpaw04gjawpoi4jgfaw$GJ$W(GJAW$(Haw

haha nice!

 

[caeman]

I have absolutely zero need or purpose for a pedal like this.



But I want one.

 

[Wud]

Plus we need to consider that Ben didn't even touch any of the Frantabit controls.
There are lots more expression control options.

good times are a coming

 

[behndy]

yes. yes you do.

****. just.... ****.

it's just Franta until about 1.28, then the TAFM Brian made me with a gate goes on in front of the Franta, then about 2.05 it's just Frant into an IdiotBox Mad Dr Stutter (squarewave trem), then at 2.35 the Pickle Pie B goes on.

FURK. this thing is crazy good.

edit - WuD is right. there's (like all of Taylor's stuff) CRAZ amounts of tones in here.

 

[emjazz]

I must own this.

 

[M Sterling]

Thanks, behndy you just made two week old Parker poop himself...one more diaper to change today!!!

Sounds beautiful in the most destructive and dirty of ways...

I feel EXACTLY the same way.... loved the clip Ben; sounded like you had a pretty major braingasm at the end.

How does it sound with the octave?

 

[Bryan R. Tyler]

So far...
Built-in tremolo-y-thing-sound is a cool bonus. I'm trying to get the hang of knowing which knob positions lead to ring mod-esque mayhem and which are crunchy wonderfulness. The blend knob is really helpful for the atonal ring mod sounding things- it gets a nice chimey tone. I used an effect like that with the bitcrusher on my VF-1 quite often.

 

[behndy]

Sterlz - thanks homie! glad to help with the Diaper Economy Stimulation in any way!

MatterDeaner - it sounds, thick..... and angry..... and just bitter at every grrL in school that held on to her looks. like it's plotting REVENGE on them.

urm. it sounds GOOD through the Aggy Octo.

Bryyyyyyy - yesh! love to hear what you do with the little beasty!

 

[JamesHommersen]

AAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Thanks Behndy, that be some ever so tasty clip of the Franta. Will you do a full review/demo of it later?
