So I finally did a track with my Mini Ark and Faye Sing

Post by Wes Mantooth »

Mostly just used the Mini as a drone machine but I'm still liking this set-up I've been plugged into recently (have to switch around things since I don't have a power supply that allows me to have all my pedals on :( )
This thing is awesome for drones but I definitely want to get a hold of a drum machine and make some more electronic/8 bit silliness.

Description from my Soundcloud:
Yeah the name is pretty nonsensical and all...

Here I used:
Snazzy FX Mini Ark
Snazzy FX Wow and Flutter
Infanem Compact Faye Sing
Dr. Scientist Radical Red Reverberator

I used the Mini Ark in mode four (8 bit fuzz kind of) to capture a drone. The rest of this piece is just fooling around with parameters on the pedals. I changed the octave and interval settings on the Mini Ark, messed around with the warp and decay on the Flutter and all the settings on the Faye Sing (especially the phase rate if you couldn't tell). At the end I turn off the drone and bang out some power chords. The Mini Ark doesn't really track chords all that well so that's where the glitchy chaos comes from.

Let me know what you all think! Or if you have any suggestions or cool ideas to use this stuff for :thumb:

Holy damn, that is beautiful. And you just totally reignited my GAS for a Faye Sing. Crap!

I'm not really into that drone stuff, but that was cool man :thumb:
I love that the Faye Sing can get so vocally.

yah. it's an awesome pedal. i actually like the TAFM -> Faye -> Octaver combo a little more than the 2nd Voice most times. the sweeps on the 2xVox are still crazy fun, so it's got a special place in the gummy bear/skittles mass that i call my heart.
