Antdroid

I've just searched the world wide web and everyone has no clue...what is the fate of this?

Its that awesome! i love it! I didnt like any of the video demos of it, but i was really interested in a ring mod. Its a very different kind of ringmod than the moog(which is the only other ringmod i can compare it with), its alot "dirtier"? Its more unpredictable and it stacks way better with other effects(i think). I think it really shines when you use it with distortion pedals.

Im not a fan at all of the regular trem function on it, because its way to noisy for post rock or other semi clean playing, and the range is a bit isnt all that great. with that said, the tremolo function is awesome if you dont think of it as a tremolo and try to tune it to the base note of the riff your playing. Then it adds alot of character to chords etc. I hope that helps, if i were you id go for it.

It has a bit of a learning curve though, i didnt like it very much for the first two months, but then one day it just clicked, and now its my favourite pedal!

You have one? When did it come out and why aren't there any for sale?

I think about a year ago the AnTdroid was going thru some design development. Adam said he was going to continue it but I haven't seen any new info about it. I don't think too many actually hit the streets. I managed to find one used and have to say it's a fun animal.

Maybe Adam from Copilot will have an update, he posts on here sometimes.

Here's an older thread about it...

Sorry, didnt catch the AnTdroid. Still if the regular one is then the second one should be exponentially cooler ,meaning

I really want one. I hope he didn't abandon this idea. He was getting really stoked on perfecting it. It'll be a masterpiece if he ever makes it.

Wouldnt buying to separate androids give you the same result? or did it have any extra mojo?

there are 9 antdroids out there i think all of them are from rev.9, the pedal evolved so much i think i have 10 different prototypes of it, ranging from 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 knobbers. It started as combining an antenna and android, but it took life of its own. I will go back to it, late december/january when i finnish some part time jobs i'm working. Even now i'm not clear wich path i'm going to follow since i have too many options i could incorporate and in the end i'll like to be an unique pedal but sadly that will mean a long curve to master .

sadly i dont think you could get close, from the versions that are in the public hands one side was very close to an antenna2 the first side was different since it was fuzz with an square wave lfo chopping the carrier for some sick telephone tones.

The version 10 i try to added some filter options for more sonic possibilities, that version is the video i did but later i planned to add and tweak, that the beast destroyed my brain and i decide to take some time off, so i can comeback with enough wisdom to overcome and turn it into an awesome riffing sonic machine, that makes you go to unthinkable path of tones that you never experienced before and only thought it could achieve with alien robot technology.

Personally I like the prospect of the constant evolution of the pedal. It'd be neat to do small runs of ten every so often, however each batch altered. I NEED IT!

You're right they're both

[Nychthemeron]

My interest, it has been peaked.

[Bellyheart]

You and me both

If it is anything like the handroid then it is worth going out of your way to get your hands on it.
