PYPB 44: ...like Tetris with boxes, wires and cables

Yep, el'capistan has to be the best designed pedal ever in how it works. H9 i'm using mostly as an overdrive/fuzz and synth-pedal, love it!
Tell me, please! Do you use Pitch Fuzz and Octaver? I have got H910 (core basic algorithm), Diatonic (bonus) and i have bought Quadravox. I am going to buy more - so i wonder of what is going to be next... Thanks!
I'd love to see you od/fuzz and synth settings...
How good is the AMT pedal? Is it the expression or the volume?
I could put some in one of the eventide threads. It's dependent on the Tonehammer as it's my main "amp", so my drives are modeled around how I set that one also. I use one eq preset for bright/dark together with the Mesa Flux. One soft overdrive over to more drive on the crush algo. And a 2-band distortion on the sculpt algo, sort of like a DUg drive. There also going from fat to bright. And from distorted bottom to more distortion in the hi-end. The AMT is the expression version.
I have a core too.
I mainly use synthonizer, crushstation, eq comp and sculpt. There are good things in all of them. Haven't found pitchfuzz that useful so not got it yet.
Ring mod is good and great sounding, makes good tremolo and fake Lesley also!
i still wonder how to set a big black knob same with the medium knob of the Pitchfactor...
Probably... However, I am really digging the 125B Volt Thrower as the mids control just makes it sound so much thicker than the original VT. But, I am dedicated to only keeping pedals I use and fit on my PT pro.
Been enjoying seeing all these boards. Here's mine I put together recently.
The VT bass is acting as a placeholder until my omnicabsim arrives.

The one thing I really don't like about my OmniCabSim - I love it otherwise - is that it takes a convincing bass played into a synth pedal sound and makes it sound like a bass again, trying to be a synth.
I dealt with it by first modding the low end control of the pedal, which worked, then decided to run it on a parallel signal line.
It's such a great pedal for massaging the pedalboard sound (harsh) into a great direct sound. That rat of yours is going to love its new best friend.

I ended up selling mine because it made my sound too harsh. There's a resonance bump where the LPF rolls off, and with the amount of upper mid/low treble distortion I play with it just didn't jive. Once I heard the resonance I couldn't un-hear it. Really liked and appreciated it (along with the Drive Maker), and I love what Daniel is doing, just didn't do it for me after a while.
Got some nice old-school petals there bro... and the meatsmoke is icing.Been enjoying seeing all these boards. Here's mine I put together recently.

That's the same reason I'm replacing the VT bass. Because of the resonance hump. I'm hoping I can deal with that with the tweakability of the omnicabsim. I've actually been just using the record output of the Meatsmoke with decent results to hold me over until it comes in.
