FUN pedals
Dunno. After stripping down my setup to bare essentials and things that I only really use, I feel like sometimes I don't have any pedals that are FUN. I've been playing with a single knob clean boost into a tube amp to give you an idea.
I know all of our interpretations of the word fun are different, but I guess what I'm trying to fish for are pedals that you can sit in front of for a really long time, experimenting, tweaking.
I have one FUN pedal right now, and it's my BitQuest.
I know the Count to Five is vast as well.
What pedals are FUN to you?

Re: FUN pedals
I dont think I would have pulled the trigger on a Kompakt Kassette if it wasn't so much fun. Not a very deep pedal but its great to just listen to how it reacts to your playing.
Same goes for the looping on the el Cap but in a less "active" way, more just listening to the processing it does to a loop.
EDIT: missed the tweaking bit you mentioned before, disregard my comments

Re: FUN pedals
Yeah, I had a lot of fun with the El Cap when I had it. I miss it, that looking feature was awesome an unique

Lastgasp Rattle Crow: I have fun messing with the Sens and changing guitars and trying to get it work totally differently. Sometimes it is synth, sometimes I can get it to barely trigger and just add snaps here and there, and sometimes I can get it to be continuous like an LFO controlled filter.alexsga wrote:Looking forward to my Ibanez PM7, Vitruvian Mod & Pitch Pirate Deluxe pedlols that are on their way
Moog MF-102 Ring Mod: Because it is a ring mod.
Kompakt Kassette is fun trying to get it to do some different stuff.
Lastgasp Cyber Psychic: sometimes it just makes sounds that makes me laugh.
Togotronic 669cv: it's jsut different to play an effect kind of like a keyboard.

Re: FUN pedals
I don't really have any tweakable fun pedals right now besides the Warped Vinyl and I don't tweak it very much because I have 2 presets that I like. It is fun to mess with the waveforms and ramping different parameters to make weird rhythmic skipping record sounds.

Re: FUN pedals
Maybe try and get your hands on an Infanem Improbability Drive or build yourself a clone since they are out of production now. I built one from a kit with a PCB and it even has a voltage starve, but I'm sure you can read schematics and work with Vero. Those things are a lot of fun and will have you tweaking for weeks and you still won't find all the sounds inside. The schematics out there are drawn from the E13 version (which is a dirty word around here these days) but I wouldn't let that stop you. I built mine just before all this recent shit blew up.

Re: FUN pedals
fairfield unpleasant surprise
pretty simple layout, but lots of cool gated sputtery sounds that are fun to put before and after reverb/delay.

Re: FUN pedals
I finally bought one last month after wanting one since the tour box came around to me years ago. The most unique fuzz and the most aesthetically pleasing pedal I've seen.

Re: FUN pedals
Dimehead PLL, Hexe Revolver and CT5 definitely fit that bill on my board right now. And to be honest, my H9, BigSky, Timeline and Mobius just because of the infinite possibilities and doing stuff like syncing the Tap Tempo with different tap divisions (delay on quarter notes, quadrature on whole notes, etc.) and also controlling all 4 of them with a single expression pedal.
