New demo of the ADD Sonic Devastation up now! It's the perfect middleground between an octave fuzz and a gated fuzz, and it can definitely get wild. It's pretty similar to a Kill Kill Filter with an octave circuit added, but still stands as its own thing. Dan made two of these and was kind enough to send one over for me to demo, but he might make more/a slightly updated version if there's some interest in it.

Just put up a demo of the Side FX Bug Elektrik ring mod! This is a super tweakable ring mod with 3 modulation speeds (tremolo, low ring mod, and high ring mod), envelope control over the modulation speed, a half time momentary footswitch, switchable waveform, and a nice overdrive to glue it all together

Just put up a demo of the Swindler Iron Drive. It's a pretty basic TS clone that ditches the mid hump in favor of a powerful two-band EQ (a lot like the Adventure Audio Glacial Zenith)

Just put up a demo of the Art Van Delay from Bondi Effects! This uses the CoolAudio BBD chips to emulate the dark filtered repeats of the DM-2 and adds a Deluxe Memory Man-inspired modulation circuit. There have been a lot of awesome analog delays coming out recently, but I gotta say I am really in love with this one

Very nice, man. That thang sounds lush! Dig the small footprint and preset feature.

Just put up a demo of the Dunn Green Priest! Unfortunately due to some postage delays and other factors, this didn't get to me until after he announced he was calling it quits, but theres still one available on reverb (and who knows, maybe he'll make more some day). Anyway, this is an Orange/Matamp style preamp that's perfect for the stoner fuzz you'd expect, but can also do really nice distortion and overdrive tones.

Just put up a demo of the Spruce Effects Giganteum Drive. This is a silicon overdrive and germanium boost in one small enclosure, both independently switchable. The drive is great and has a pretty flexible tone control, but the boost is where it really shines. The boost's tone knob (labelled Girth) controls the peak frequency of the boost, so you can sweep from treble boost to a more full low-mid boost. This alone sounds amazing pushing an amp, and it combines with the drive really well

Here's my NAMM recap with clips from some of my favorites and explanations of what I didn't get to!
The clips are Keeley Eccos + DDR
Fuzzrocious Mantis + Grey Stache + Knob Jawn
Deep Space Devices Bit Crush/Ring Mod Delay Prototype
SolidGoldFX Sub Octave Fuzz Prototype + Athena Phaser + Counter Current
Cooper FX Prototype/Outward V2
Caroline Guitar Co Somersault + Megabyte + Meteore
Rainger Drone Rainger + Deep Space Pulsar
Native Audio Catches Two + Midnight
OBNE Rever + Dweller
KMA Queequeg + Dead Stag + Horizont
Red Panda Particle + Tensor

I didn't get audio of the Chase Bliss stuff because my setup wouldn't have done it justice (just a zoom and line in for all of this), but I got some b-roll and explained as much as I could

Cool, stoked to watch the recap, dude.

[Chankgeez]

… and I think I saw a purple pedal in there.

[Dowi]

Super useful recap, thanks Ian!

The last thing I want right now is guitar gas...but Meteora
