and the cv inputs on the HP totally eliminated my need for other modulation i can easily find crazy different tones just by moving the pedals ever so slightly. I've taken on the saying i used with drums, "Sometimes less is more, it forces you to focus on what and how your playing instead of what sound can i make"Iommic Pope wrote: Skip, you rule.

It sound amazing, its the first pedal that i felt really complemented the Ghost Disaster. The pair together is as eerie as the weird guy on the corner with the asymmetrical face who always stares at you for no reason as you pass. The phaser > trem combo with the CV inputs is insane, can easily get some analog synth sounds outs my guitar and couple it with the delay and some 2 footed modulation and its a psychedelic trip not seen since the late 60's. The hoof isnt as high gain as i'm used to but i needed something to stray me away from my usual high gain habits and it fits the bill perfectly, some great vintage fuzz tones to be had. I'm currently using it as a low gain fuzzy booster and its perfect. All i need now is a cheapo p90 equipped guitfiddle and i'll be set.
skullservant wrote:CV inputs?? Holy hell, just keeps getting better! Coincidentally I'm building my girlfriend a RAT into a Tremolo, I'm just so intrigued by the concept of the chopped fuzz, especially with delay after like you said!

Thank you my friend! I just found it easier to focus on using effects to their fullest instead of just having a bunch of different pedals. It's also easier on the gigging back. Everytime i look at the AA board i feel like its sooooo TGP though with the buffer and strymon and the lava cable.... but then i play it and it's totally worth it best tone i've ever had hands down so happy with it. It's straight forward but has so many tones at hand. Once the fav switch is in i will have 3 different dirt tones and 2 delays on that tiny lil board

Holy Schnikes wrote:As for the dreaded "TGP Stigma": A truly ridiculous TGP board is ALWAYS a hilariously bad thing to see. A Strymon and/or Lava cables + buffer don't qualify imo. Anyway, only a true moron/pedal-scene-queen would worry about stupid shit like that and you're too busy rocking in awesome bands to concern yourself with those types.
Music gear is a musicians tool, just like a wrench and sockets are to a mechanic. I grew up working on cars and learned the value of good tools, but also buying only what you need not what you think you need. The thing about the car scene that bugged the hell out of me and eventually made me completely give it up is that its not about You the driver, it's all about the car, whose faster because they have more money in their car. Which is redundant because their is always some one faster or with nicer stuff. The nice thing about playing music is that is 99% you and 1% your gear, people don't care how big your board is or how expensive your guitar is, is about what you play, if you can't play you can't play. I go and play a show and put everything i got into it and thats what people remember, maybe 1 out of 20 non musician fans will comment on the gear, but its also nice to talk shop when the chance arrises.Iommic Pope wrote: Skip, you rule.
