PYPB XXXIII - Effects are STOOPID

[Melvin7822]

Nice! It is as cool... What kind of cables are those? Man I've been interested in cables lately...

The cable is Sommer Grindy Cop Beast with G&H Show Saver plugs. It gets the job done. The red and green you see is the braided carbon fiber/copper shield.

Now THAT is proper scary!

oh MAN. it's so BEAUTIFUL in there! my Reverse Tourette's turns everything i hear into a magical, whimsical phrase! usually involving duck on unicorn genital violence!!

..... dressed in high socks and short high school mini-skirts. that really, REALLY need to pee. rarrrrr. OMORASHI.

actually im half cockney and half glaswegian

that.... urm.... only leads to one joke.... that the filters on TalkBass would just MANGLE. so i'm gonna... i'm gonna just leave that'un alone..... and sit over here.... yeah......

Sometimes I stare at Ben's posts for five minutes and just think to myself: What in the f*** is he trying to say?!

Ben, I wouldn't be able to live in the effects forum if it wasn't for you.

yay! i'm an enigma! a dancing monkey ENIGMA!!!

*preens*

d'awwwww!! you GUYS!!

also........

gah. i'm such a GIT with cameras.

 

[Josh Pelican]

Yeah, I've decided to go with the Pedaltrain Mini. Hopefully if stays that way.

I think I know exactly how I'll set it up. My only problem is that the Proteus is getting a little tempting... I haven't heard many samples of it with fuzz, though. Would someone here like to provide me a few samples? Behnghay, I'm looking at you.

I don't play a lot of experimental music. I'd be using my board for a lot of grind/pv, doom/stoner metal, and some softer things like Circa Survive, Castevet, If These Trees Could Talk, etc. I can only see the Proteus being useful for doom/stoner metal.

*SALUTES*

lol. will do! you want fuzz in front or behind it? or both?

(no vested interest at ALL since i have one for sale....... really.......)

 

[caeman]

gah. i'm such a GIT with cameras.

As much money as your spend on pedals, one would think you could buy a decent DSLR so your pictures don't look like a monkey on a crack with an iPhone was taking the pictures.

 

[behndy]

meh. i'd just screw it up WITH NICER PHOTO GEAR. what's the price range on a decent little photo box?

....... and yesh....... i use the iphone Crap-a-mara a LOT.

Don't worry, I saw that.

Give me some quick settings in front and behind.

Oh. That sounded nasty.

 

[HiFi]

behndy, what's hanging out on the far right of that Mini? I'm sure you've mentioned it before, but it escapes me at the moment.

 

[behndy]

that's an OhNoHo Utter Stutter. it's an oscillating feedback loop. i just dump EVERYthing in there. it's.... pretty wild and unpredictable and NASTY.

very much fun times.

Did you try reverb?

Hmmm I'll have to look those up, thanks

How do you like the Flashback compared to some of the other delays you've tried?

yerp!

H2​0 Aviator - i dig it a lot actually. i just got it in a trade with ca(V)eman (thanks homie!) so i've only put a bit of time in with it. but the LoFi is a lot of fun. i like the way the looper works way better than the Hardwire DL8, and it can overdub.... so...... bonus.

NOW I CAN HAVE 4 DELAYS RUNNING INTO EACH OTHER. ***ing NOISY.

....... Flashback NEAT.

 

[Josh Pelican]

Baan Thai - Thanks for the clips, dude. I don't know how much I would use something like that in a band setting, but it intrigues me greatly. I just want to spend money on pedals so I can fit in.

alexa. - I haven't tried a reverb, either. I really want to get my hands on one for both guitar and bass, but I'm waiting until someone sells a beat up Strymon Blue Sky for cheap. SOME DAY.

Uhm.... oooooookkkaaaaaayyyyyy.....


Funny thing is, I was actually trying to imagine said scene in MY head. Safe to say it wasn't very.... nice.

Btw, it's probably somewhat like [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]?

 

[behndy]

meh. i spend way too much time with dogs to find them at all sexual. even a sluttly little chihuahuahuahua like that. it's probably more like this....

i like LAYDAYS. laydays that are into some weird **** mostly, but still laydays.

FOOGHAPHH. i think...... what i like the most about pedals.... is that being just stuck for an idea for a part or song or whatever, sometimes turning on 7 pedals going into each other gives such wonderful noises that it leads to a cool riff. or a horrible riff, that totally works.

rarrrrrrr.

JushJushJush - for sure homie! it's a DAMN fun pedal. if i had the space, i'd so keep it on board. it's a lot more versatile than the M9 patch i use to fake it.

 

[Josh Pelican]

Could you do one more quick sample for me? I know you want to.

Depth and Frequency at 10:00; Switch at 2:00; Tap/Mode off. Then chuck the switch to 4.
Depth and Frequency at 11:00; Switch at 2:00; Tap/Mode off. Then chuck the switch to 4.
Depth - 1:00; Frequency at 10:00; Switch at 2:00; Tap/Mode off. Then chuck the switch to 4.
Finally, Depth - 11:00; Frequency at 4:00; Switch at 2:00; Tap/Mode off. Then chuck the switch to 4.

If you do, I'll LUFF YOU FOREVER. I don't need them RIGHT NOW. Whenever you can.

P.S. Please forgive me if you showed these. These are settings I've heard and really liked from the almighty Burgerman666. I just need to know how it sounds with FUZZZZZZ. They sound so good and almost wah-like at times.

for suuuuuuuure! 'm at work till about noon or so my time (MY ****ing time zone. back up off me.), but i'll bang those out when i get home and pop it in that other thread. don't wanna clutter up the PYPB Goliath.

Indeed, lets not clutter up PYPB with anything to do with effects. Let's have more pictures of unicorn-models, skinned disco ducks and plaid skirts.

Woof!


Sorry, couldn't help myself, Behndy! It was just too ripe for the plucking, as it were. Cheers, buddy!

 

[behndy]

i...... am a model....... of on-topic'ness.

i throw in a tad pedal related mumbles when i go afield. or i try to.

I WANT A SQUAREWAVE PARADE. heard he might be making the TSP's again. i think..... i need........ to email him.

Here is my latest incarnation, with the tafm's triumphant return from ss/bs with a new gated footswitch switch! I'm still awaiting word on my micro chorus (at mxr for diagnosis), which the empty space on the bottom shelf represents.

At this point, I have all the basics (for me, for now) covered. Eventually I'll be upgrading the devices I currently have. Though I would be hard pressed to upgrade the top shelf, and the FEA mixer isn't going anywhere soon either.

Someday I'll give a reverb a try, maybe a bit crusher, an overdrive (again)... Could use a tuner pedal, maybe a volume pedal too... ugh... never ends does it?

Oh, like my board? I made it myself! Gaffers tape, velcro and cheap pine are my friends, heh...
