I'm having him build me a pedal and I'm trying to convince him to get a spot in the shark tank:

[Disarm D'arcy]

I took out a big pedal from my backpack on the subway today (because I'm easily bored) and an old woman sitting opposite of me looked absolutely petrified. I thought she was going to scream or have a heart attack. I put the pedal down on my lap and told her not to worry. I went on to explain to her what it was. So, now there's a 70+ year old lady in Oslo that knows what guitar pedals are, lol.

TLDR; Pedals lool like homemade bombs.

Did you invite her to the ILF? Because we could explain her one thing or two about NSFW memes as well.

I'm about to take my modular system on to the Acela because there is no way I'm sitting for 5 hours bored out of my mind. Now that should be fun.

Whoa Crudman! The poor rich man's Mellotron. I was going to embed a video but I can't get it to work for Vimeo...

So a pic and a link.

Not really feelin the GAS but it's a cool hack/idea.

Bringing this back because of the second video with the spoken word. That's crazy and would be really useful for any sort of project that uses tape loops even if it's kinda costly.

DiPinto have got a real Mellotron they're selling:

But can you put any random tape into a real Mellotron?

[Chankgeez]

You can try.

I haven't been to DiPinto yet, but I haven't heard anything good about them.
From multiple sources.

One story involving said Mellotron

When you get a package delivered and you're at your inlaws!!! This has always been emotionally exhausting (kidding... Sort of) but our new neighbors are so sketchy!

Trying to figure out whether to buy a Maxon AD-999 or Maxon AD-999 Pro. Pro has them multi-tap switches which I probably would enjoy, but the regular seems to have less filtered, tasty repeats, and I could always run my AD-9 into it for sorta multi-tap fun.

Edit: Never mind, found an AD-999 for cheap locally.
