ILFSS '18 Wishlist Thread

Post by DRodriguez »

stealing from Neon. A few of us were concerned about not being stalkable enough. So help your satan out!

A couple things:

-Try to keep it pretty general in the wishlist thread. Maybe builders you like, types of effects you're into, etc. Instead of being like "Get me a Count to Five!" maybe say "I'm into looping and glitchy stuff and pitch shifting madness." and then maybe you'll get a ct5 or maybe you'll get some other awesome glitchy thing you weren't expecting. FUN!

-It might be helpful to post your pedalboard or your collection so nobody buys you something you already have.

-What are you currently waiting on or buying?

-Include T shirt size, any dietary needs/restrictions/things that gross you out, music you're into, and stuff like that.

-Look at last year's wishlist thread and the unboxing for inspiration or if you're just not sure what to do.

-Don't use this in lieu of stalking. The hunt is the rewarding part, not the kill.

Things i am currently waiting on. 2 Lauren Audio Corsair versions. A reverberation machine. Will remain pedge otherwise.

Things I like. splatty gross drives, rythmic things, dying warbly messes, synths. Been into random broken cheap vintage solid state stuff or amps. Anything utility is raddddddd. diy stuff and components, used enclosures? Is that a thing?

After having read through my own posts to check how stalkable I am, I think this thread is for me.

- I'm not super into modulation, but I'm down to be persuaded otherwise. I definitely don't like phasers or flanges though. Got to try some RAT clones this summer. Those were cool. I like ILF builders. A tiny cheap verb that gets fully wet? Random DIY kit that I can build and/or paint? Flatwounds for my Bass VI? A thingy?

My boards:

(tuner > Barbershop > Enzo > Fuzz-E-Cat > TAFM > stammen > Fabrikat > Meatbox > BitQuest)

Waiting for/buying: Nothing I can think of right now. Been meaning to try a Frazz V2 for a long time now, but I don't see myself getting one unless I find one locally for cheap (which is highly unlikely).

T-shirt size L (I'm 185cm tall and slim build, so I guess it depends on the brand)

Happy hunting!

So, my stalker can look into the past for this info...

But, my current board: Mini, Fuck, Tonal Recall RKM, Echo Degrader, Mantic Proverb (and to abide with the spirit of ILFSS I will not change my board until after the holidays :!!!: )

POSSIBLE DESIRES:
Dirt.
Some kind of glitchy, stuttery buttery.

Wow, I might be a PITA about now because I am trying to settle into my stuff and cut back on the GAS, so I don’t ooh and ah as much as I used to.

I need to configure my rack of doom, but I am so mostly set on the components of that. Conventional delay, reverb, and choruses I have covered.

I’d totally dig a cool fuzz or an ILF-ish overdrive (e.g., Mini, Improbability). But I don’t jibe with Big Muffs and their direct derivatives.

Despite having access to delays galore, freeze and hold modes, etc., in rack, I am still a sucker for trick pedals on the floor. I’m rotating ILF-DD, Rubberneck, Freqout, Freeze, and some utility players like iStomp, MS-100BT, Digidelay, DL-8, and Delay Lab doing specific things I want on the floor. Synth-y pedal stuff and glitch loopers are where a lot of my GAS still lives.

I’m a huge them fan but only have a DIY square wave trem. Don’t give a rat’s ass about smooth, amp-like trem, but like it weird.

For left field stuff, something like a Volca Sample, a Micro Granny, or a lap steel would be awesome.

I’m an XL tee unless they run big. I’m not a metal guy or a big punk fan, but I love a lot of things on the fringes of either genre.

I get to send stuff to like the coolest guy here, this year, and I'm such a lurker, sorry. Let the thought of my pleasure assuage your pain.

Oranger Rockerverb MKII 50w with Orange PPC412 w/ Vintage 30s

EBow
2x Axoloti that will be turned into Synths/Synth FX/Noise Makers

-What are you currently waiting on or buying?

To be honest, I'm thinking about buying a Moog Grandmother. No Santa is buying that for me.

-Include T shirt size, any dietary needs/restrictions/things that gross you out, music you're into, and stuff like that.

T-Shirt Size Medium. No Dietary Concerns. Very little grosses me out. I've been pretty open about my musical tastes on here. Enjoy coffee and beer. Enjoy savory/salty.

Stalk more for my stuff. I post boards and modules and things. ;)

Gear stuff below:
NSFW: show
The only thing I'm currently thinking about is researching a new wah pedal or one of those phasers in a wah enclosure things. This is only an idle idea. I'm not really lusting for anything else but I like surprises. I really feel like I have enough fuzz at the moment. :lol: And I think I've found that really crazy guitar effects don't work for me (count to five, granular things, synthy stuff etc) because I like that more in synth format. But no hard and fast rules, if you have a great idea maybe I'd love it :)

Should mention my modular rack is full and I'm pretty happy with it all so if you go that direction you'd have to be pretty certain it'd replace something I already have. Fortune favours the bold though. :p

I'll post my synth collection soon. I'm pretty happy with it all but maybe it will spark ideas.

I won't buy any new gear till after the festive period so don't worry about that.

Feel free to ignore my "rules". I just wanted to give context on where my gear is at. If you get me a rad pedal of any kind or a thing that makes fun noises I am sure I will be delighted.
T shirt size medium.

I'm gluten free and vegan food-wise. I looove cooking and new flavours. And coffee. And tea and things. Less keen on candy but I wouldn't necessarily turn it down.

Music: stalk me! I don't have a record or tape player and don't use CDs that much these days (but I still can).

Books: Stalk me.. ;)

I'd guess I could be a marginally difficult mark since I spend more time talking about the passage of electrons instead of the end products that facilitate that, past Satans have proven me very wrong though so maybe I'm easy. I dunno, in the case whomever is reading this still needs any concerns assuaged:
NSFW: show
I've had no personal gear budget for a very long time, so pretty much anything is "new" to me and will be appreciated, don't let any supporting gear I have pollute an otherwise good idea. The only incoming I have is a trade deal in which I will end up with an Akai Timbre Wolf, I highly doubt I'll be buying anything through the season unless I come up on something far below market as a fluke in my daily travels.

TL;DR have fun with it and follow your gut, I'm happy to have a go at running signal through just about anything.

Here are some other links to my internet presence:

I enjoy unusual sounds, dark and savory flavors and am growing into my skinny kid wearing big clothes habit of decades past (AKA I tend to grab the XL when available).
I'll try and post more pictures of my gear, it's usually a cringe-worthy experience for me.

My guitar setup:
NSFW: show
Image
The ones you won't recognize are the round germanium fuzz with mods, Laowiz Pigpile (modded percolator) beneath that, and the Echoluxe analog delay. Revolver is my GOAT pedal while EP3 is my magic pandora's box of sounds. I will not be making changes to this before Christmas. In fact, a SS gift may help decide on a direction my board will take in the future while keeping some on the sidelines.

Feel like I am already drowning in gain. Love glitch pedals and have owned many. Have a love/hate with reverb, always love the sound but end up disliking it in my rig for one reason or another, but then I always want to get another. Don't like modulation much, except tremolo is always classy and I have a place in my heart for the old big box Polychorus (not the tamed XO model). Generally really dig black, silver, or etched pedals because of the general utilitarian nature of a pedal board. I have one EGC guitar and play into a 70's Marshall JMP, and rarely into a 70's Fender Twin.
My Modular:
NSFW: show
https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/757113
Image
Planning to pull the SMR and replace with Clouds2 and Ataraxic Iteritas, and I don't want to wait it out on these and will be my only purchases in the next few months. On the fence about Stages though, so maybe if you are in to modular and have a suggestion to replace Stages with something 14-16hp that does good CV stuff (LFO, EGs, etc). Bonus if it is black. This stuff is spendy so I don't expect anything. FWIW, I don't have much interest in the 2HP brand right now.
With budget constraints I feel it is necessary to mention I would be just as happy to receive an old RV3 or DL4.

Food: love coffee and chocolate.

Music: Would love your own material! Or something from a local friend?

I guess I'll do this as well. :)

Pedals-I have a ton still. I'm always looking for more fuzz, modulation...whatever. I'll even take ring mods now (I know right??). 856 is the top (LOL). Really, I'm cool with anything. Some of the best gifts have been the ones that are homemade. I mean, as long as it works. ;)

Food- I cannot have my beloved whey protein anymore. Turns out I'm legit allergic to it and all dairy products. :( I do like vegan stuff though! I also like candy, but try to limit it. I'm into coffee a ton and I love getting local stuff from folks.

Music- I'm all over the place with this. I'm currently listening to a ton of female singers and music that is sorrowful but uplifting (Chelsea Wolfe, Garbage, Torres..etc). I dig doom metal, hip hop, trip hop, post rock and metal...etc. I like just about everything but country. I'm really not a country fan save for a select few artists. I love vinyl and cd's. I don't have a tape player currently.

Shirt size-XL athletic (my shoulders are 44 inches around if that helps).
Underwear size-31 waist
Pant size-31-33 (the legs have to be at least 27 inches).
Shoes-9 1/2 (what I'm short!!! Leave me alone!)
Hat-uhhh I have a big ass head, thats kind of why I have a big ass body. I had to equal it out ya know? :) I can't do fitted hats lol. I do love beanies.

Books-horror, thriller, theology (not joking), crime thrillers, and anything about serial killers. I've always studied them. Don't ask. No I'm not crazy. Wait. Am I? Maybe...

Uhhhhhhh....what else.

Oh! I like art like a lot. Any kind of artwork, is my love.

Take a walk with me through the Jack Shack. Pedal inventories will be explored, my current pedalboard will be uncovered, the mystical purplequiose color scheme revealed!!

I am not buying anything for the rest of the year, except for my Satan’s gift.

My T-shirt is L. I subscribe to Apple Music, so it has to be pretty far off the radar. I’m super into surf right now.

Anything with peanut butter is delicious to me.
