i really appreciate all the people that have been part of this tourbox :hug: :thumb:


Glad you liked it! Sure, you can definitely post to the site. Thanks again for setting this up - I'd love to take part in any further Copilot tourboxes. Any clues to what the next one might be?

Thanks, man! Yeah, I found my favorite sounds to be when I played above the 12th fret, and usually with everything cranked, which is also how I usually like "traditional" octave pedals. I did like using it with the tone rolled back on lower notes, but that was more of an aggressive fuzz sound than a synth sound. The crazy noises you can get out of the Mantis 2 are pretty dang impressive.

Excellent! I'll keep my eyes on the forum to see what it is and when - I'd definitely like to be a part of it.

Oh, and of those four pedals you list, I want to try them ALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!! Caracol and Orbit definitely top my list, but they all intrigue me a great deal.

I second the Orbit, I want it so hard. Caracol is cool too. I bet I could do some cool stuff by splitting my signal, and using my whammy going to the external jack.

Mantis II... what a cool pedal! :omg:

Whacked-out trashy biker fuzz, ring mod fuzz, messy synth bass, textured noise. OK, I spose I've got to let it go... :cry:
ILF pedals: DE Eye of God, Mellowtone Wolf Computer, Mellowtone Singing Tree LE, Fuzzhugger Arc Flash Oscillator, DSc Miniberator, Mysterious J boost/cut/tremolo pedal

I miss that little copper-orange box of glitchy wonder. It feels like years have gone by since it was here.
Do you like listening to homemade music? Me too. Why don't you try one of mine?

remember to play with bends and add some short delay or flanger after it.

Hopefully next week it will be in nyc for the sonic hand-to-hand swap ultra mojo tonzzzz :thumb:
