Your KEEPER pedals!

[BitchPudding]

My Big Muff Pi and Ibanez modulation delay II, sound great apart but together they are absolutely god like!

sweet jesus motherfucker...that's bigger than my entire board. I obviously have much more to learn in the ways of the pedal

srsly. that's bigger than my board, my looping board, and my rack LOL.

Yeah, I've been at it for about ten years now, and I made pretty decent money in my twenties, so I gradually bought a bunch of pedals to try out and was able to hold on to the ones I liked. Nothing really vintage, high-end or unobtanium, just good, useful stuff that's worth keeping around. I bought almost all of it used for relatively cheap, and I'm a sucker for 70's especially 80's Japanese cheap and cheerful pedals.

Much of what's on my boards right now (bass board and bedroom guitar noisemaking board) isn't included in the list - been meaning to get some pics together, but I change up the fuzzes and dirt pedals pretty often.

Foxrox Octron
Pearl OC-07 Octaver

How would you compare these?

It's been a pretty long time since I fired that Pearl up - I should do that and get back to you.

Most important part of my sound is bass guitar itself and tube amps. Pedals are nice addition, but pragmatically I can imagine if there is a situation I could live without almost all stompboxes.
So from pedals the only 100% keeper is splitter with transformer isolated outputs and phase controls.

HERETIC. BURN THE WITCH.

i don't like people with "talent" and "skills" that don't feel the need to cover their inadequacies under good time happy sounds.

BURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN.

[sylnau]

^ and I would add that if everybody sounded the same... music would be useless.
Innovation and experimentation with pedals and sounds is very important to create unique sounds and textures.

true dat. i just suck. and like all the noisy, noisy help i can get. MAKE ME BETTER LITTLE PEDAL THING. MAKE ME BETTTTTTTTEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR.

I can actually play old-man style blues rock quite well. I'm just completely done with it, y'know? It's pretty lame. So effects are good inspiration to my further noisy, post-punkish endeavors. And good time happy sounds.

I think the pedal I've had the longest would be my Ibanez DE7, but I'd probably trade that for something better in a heartbeat. I'd always want to have a muff, some kind of delay and OD, maybe wah, and another more fuzz face-ey/rangemaster-esque fuzz, but right now I'm not tied to anything specific.

I run most of my weird shit in a loop chain so I can make the string sections I loop into a sort of a modular synth. My live violin line, I run with just some drive and delay. And soon, FUZZ.

Weighing up things between a Megalith, a Musket, or a TAFM.

After that, pretty much everything I've got will be a keeper as it's more or less the sounds I'm after!

But I love the weird shit. Seriously. If I could find a way to make rainbow machine noises with my hands, I wouldn't want one.

Ok so why the fuck are you here?

well, sorry I didn't have intention to create any pain for you.
pedals are cool.
sorry once again but if you could tell me what exactly are your keepers I'll buy those for sure.

Strymon El Capistan, SS/BS Fuck Overdive. That's me happy.

oh Talkbass. you silly, silly old man.

[D.o.S.]

Tubes>Pedals, because tubes make fuzz pedals sound better.



Anyway, Singing Tree, Supercollider, Grey 'Stache. But I don't flip pedals very often.
