Cool, thanks guys. And Pepe, now I want your avatar too.
This is a very impressive collection of Roto Toms. That's 21 Roto Toms in all. That is only $33.00 a Roto Tom.

Maybe the HM-2 is becoming the new timebender, but I made a lil demo of what a hm-2 with the gain at 0 can do.

I never was fond of it at 0, but I didn't swedish chainsaw it either - usually gain about 40-50% and bass to max.

I've mostly used it at halfway too, this keeping the gain at zero business has gotten to me though. I really dig it, but it much more depends on the particular guitar I'm using and the hotness of the pickups

If I want pickup crunch, that I can get without the need for a pedal.

Dirty Fingers and the Fender Atomics are....loud. :)

This thread...

Is a good excuse to randomly announce that I've got a good lead on both an affordable PS-3 as well as a HM-2 :animal:

Should make a sick board together with my RV-3 and FZ-2 :)

And I so haven't gotten over my CE-2W GAS yet :/

DD-500 can do lots of cool things (even reverb, which is great because reverb>delay). Does a better space echo than the RE-20 from what I remember about the RE, too.
good deals are here.
flesh couch is here.

My synth board is PS-3 / Mini / RV-3 / PS-3 / EHX 22500 and it is a wonder of efficiency and potential noise-fuckery.
And I have another PS-3 for my guitar/bass board.
So yes, that should make a sick board indeed :).

I need to get on the PS-3 train but fuck paying 100 dollars or more for that honestly.

My synthboard is PS-2/Rat/PS-2/Space so kinda similar to your board. I also have a PS-2 on my guitar board with an RV-2 and HM-2. I think I need a chorus for my synth board because it's definitely important for the moving and ebbing of poly/paraphonic synths like my driftbox RE.

Replace the second PS-3 with an analog delay (ES-2 for now), the mini with a clusterfuzz and FZ-2 (HM-2 isn't happening apparantly), and the 22500 with a Ditto X2...And you got my future guitar board :)

The PS-3's dual detune is wonderful for this... Just saying :).

One day, one day. There was once a PS-3 in a noise/found sound record/tape shop in Osaka and I almost convinced the guy to sell it to me because it was literally being used as a paper weight. Too bad my Japanese was still too poor to convince him. I knew he would've given it to me for cheap. Went back with a better command of the language (specifically because I wanted to haggle) and it was gone with the wind :(

Anyone familiar with the PH1r kinda interested in buying one but I can't seem to find how slow it goes which is pretty important for me.
