What is the Craziest, Most Out-There piece of gear you own?

Post by Kellanium »

And I'm not just talking sound, I'm talking about the kind of thing no functional human being should have.

I have a Ca. 1955 Webster-Chicago Reel-to-Reel recorder.

All I can really put on here is my DSS-1. Good fun. No one should own it because despite sounding like a whale (which is a good thing. <3), it is about that hard to transport.

I don't really have any "out-there" gear anymore...probably the craziest thing I have right now is my torn's peaker...however, stacking my OCD on top of my Superfuzz on top of my Hoof fuzz on top of my Torn's Peaker is not something any reasonable human being should hear :evil:

We're not reasonable. Clips are required.

I also once ran my microkorg into a wolf computer, shoegazer, and memory man delay, with a hiwatt theremin plugged into the stereo input of the delay. It was in a band that just wanted me to make some noise. :idk:
