Crazy effect combination ideas

Post by Inconuucl »

I have a lot of pedals, but I always get ideas and curiosities on how certain effects (that I don't own) stack, knowing you guys, so do you! So I wanted to make a thread where people could show/throw crazy effect combination ideas. Who knows, maybe someone with the right combination of pedals can show us how it would sound. ;)

I would love to hear a delay that has an effect loop with a autowah/autofilter in the middle of it, or an arpanoid in the middle of it. :drool:
Or, as I have stated earlier in the forums, a passive ringmod that's being controlled by an arpanoid. :!!!:

There are several delays with effect loops that allow you to do just that... And a ring modulator has two inputs (carrier and modulator). Because guitarists typically have only one signal, pedals usually include an oscillator but any ring mod circuit would work for what you want.

So you want a the autowah to only tweak the echoes from the delay? Easy in a bunch of multifx with parallel chains.

I was going to record a demo but it frankly just ends up sounding like a phaser with a little delay before it.

Oh, what the hell, before I wipe the patch, here's why you shouldn't spend lots of money on this.

Casino > left no delay/autowah , right 2 head (220/666ms faux Space Echo 100% wet into autowah) into Jazz Chorus.

Octave down fuzz > chorus > subtle reverb.

Best monophonic synth tones ever.

This is the reason I love my little zoom pedal

Can chain a bunch of effects together and switch them all on/off with a line selector model

Sot some wacky synth sounds and cool spacey things

Moderately fast n deep trem -> 300ms ish analog delay -> Fuck with crackle on high -> fairly wet Ringmod with no lfo modulation.

Maybe an array of shit pitch shifters moving your signal up and down while losing its fidelity. 8D it would sound like a weird bitcrusher.

I almost jizzed myself when I came up with this combo for a huge stacked synth sound:



Tone Machine -> Behringer Synth -> Boss OC-2 -> Chorus -> Flanger -> Delay

Find a cheap old 90s multi-effect unit and run it through a feedback looper. The possibility's are endless.

long delay with clean-ish ringmod in the feedback loop. it's just MENTAL. every feedback pass gets folded additionally by the ringmod, so you get feedback getting pitched up, then pitched down, then sideways, etc..
