I got this RonSound Hairpie 1865 in the post yesterday..
note the inscription inside

Hope he didn't include covid inside the box along with that nice note.

the tone is sick... but not that sick... anyway I wiped the thing with beach when I unboxed it so...

Agreed, although I will say that getting a Cioks DC7 was pretty exciting for me. That thing is incredible for experimenting with pedals that accept different current draws...plus it is SO powerful that you can use it to power any kind of crazy board you can dream up (at least using the stuff I have).

Since the pandemic began I have bought a lot of stuff (why not? I might get sick and die!) but still have plenty* of cash in reserve (so why not buy more stuff?) in case of emergencies.

I've currently managed to resist, but I know how easy it is to talk myself into reckless spending just to pass the time and to have something to look forward to



*Not that much, but more than usual

3 days after caving on a Blooper, I just couldn't resist the new CooperFX offering

I now have 4 pedals en route to me:
- Drolo - Molecular Disruptor - been waiting on that for almost 2 months now thanks to international mail delays
- Saturnworks - Pedal Order switcher - they are back ordered so that one is delayed a week
- Chase Bliss - Blooper - should be here Thursday
- CooperFX - Arcades - I think those ship May 1st????


now how to get these all inside to our mail quarantine area un-noticed by the mrs...and also to not let my kids blow up my spot when I start experimenting with them ("Oh that looks like a new one daddy!"). I am still planning on a Hydrasynth, but I may have blown that budget. If I had more money, I'd buy some time...

I WAS FORGETTING ABOUT CIOKS! that DC7 seems the thing i'm looking for, i see that now it's expandable even with the new Cioks 8

you don't fear option paralysis, right? i could lose an entire year of my life - or more - trying every possible combination of just those three

Option paralysis isn't my issue...my issue is FOMO. I love these weirdo pedals and lately more and more release and if you don't jump on the release, next batches are always so far away and I refuse to pay scalper prices so I end up with a bunch of pedals that I don't get deep enough with...and I do like to get pretty deep with MIDI and digging in. I do wish I had more time...w a career and family w little kids, the pandemic has been busier than regular life. Thankfully I have more than enough toys to keep me occupied for now. Loving learning the Blooper and Arcades has been way more impressive than I expected it to be.

exact same reaction.

Sold a Squier VM Jazzmaster I have basically never played, and sold off two decent road bikes I had. (I don't need so many bikes.)

Getting: Chase Bliss Mood, Dirge Melting Slowly. Gonna be in delay heaven, with less money than before.. but can always flip the Mood.

This has been fun for some pandemic non-sense. I like to fiddle with this when the zoom meetings get slow

Here's a cool free thing to mess with: https://mynoise.net/noiseMachines.php
It's a huge list of interactive generative sound banks, including rain/thunder sounds, scifi sounds, piano soundscapes, african drum polyrhythms, chants, tweakable server room noises and much much more... There's a lot of creativity inspiring ones in there, but also a lot of background sounds for when you don't want to sit in silence.

Thanks for the heads up, surely worth browsing.
