Depth Charge!

[Jwar]

Well Trent used it in his live version of Reptile with Peter Murphy. I specifically asked Justin about this one.

Damn son. That bass sounds killer.

This wait is getting harder.

Also, I think I accidentally like Nine Inch Nails now. I didn't hate them before or anything. Its sort of that thing where I write a band off based on their fan base. Like Tool or Slipknot. Well, Slipknot based on their whole image. The point is, I should stop.

Dude you gotta remember where Nine Inch Nails came from. If it wasn't for Ministry dude would probably still be playing clubs. Al helped him by giving him a voice in 10,000 Homo DJ's. That's old school shit bro. OLD SCHOOL. Now I can understand why hardcore fans wouldn't like some of his new material. It's pop rock in a sense, instead of industrial where his roots were. I think Trent adjusted as he stopped drugging. Not a horrible thing.

[neonblack]

it still has an edge to it though. I mean, he's older now. You can't expect a dude his age to want to scream and thrash like he used to. I had The Downward Spiral and Pretty Hate Machine back in the day. I guess I just sort of left them behind when I got into all my abrasive noise rock, hardcore, and punk stuff. Definitely gonna revisit it now.

The Slip has really awesome fuzz textures all over it. Really fun record.

[neonblack]

Im gonna make a spotify playlist in preparation for my new fuzz.

[Holy Schnikes]

The Buzzz is fucking killer. So many textures hidden inside, some of which have crazy low end. Roll back the volume knobs on your guit or bass and it gets trashy. mmmm.

This!

Someone should temp trade me for one.

that bass tone is fucking awesome, woah

[kbit]

Do you have a Buzzz? Maybe once I get to know the DC a bit we can do a little temp trade. Id love to try a Buzzz. Im hoping theyre different enough to justify getting both.

Maaaybe haha im a lil attached at the moment but maybe.

Is anyone using the depth charge for heavier stuff? I know the bass tone on The Ocean by Against Me! is a DC but I want to hear it used in doom or heavy hardcore or something.

[neonblack]

Thats sort of what Im hoping to do with it. I dont know of any recorded stuff like that with the Depth Charge though. Although, excanes demo vid with the b3k + depth charge is pretty heavy. Its a full mix demo iirc.

Even the mode 2 of the FZ-2 sound more similar to a DC than the B:Assmaster: you can get a sound that's really close. Obviously, the DC has more sustain and more harmonics than the Boss.

Heavy truth right here. The DC is tiiiiiiight. It really did remind me more of a superfuzz than a Brassmaster, because it gets really white-noise-y sometimes. And, the blend allows it to work nicely with other pedals really well. I loved it for big, overwhelming chords on guitar. Also, Munky from Korn used one, I think. I actually really enjoy Korn's tastes in fuzz.

[neonblack]

Does it handle fast runs and staccato stuff well? Most of what I play alternates between pretty fast stuff and big heavy chords. On bass, of course.

Got my Depth Charge in today! I need more time to play with settings, but it didnt play as well with my mini as I would have liked. Not yet, at least. When I have more than 10 minutes to mess with it, Im sure itll be good. I'll try to post clips at some point soon.
