Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
I don't know about the actual pedals, but I sure would love an OEM Klon shaped cake pan or Jello mold.
Yum!
Yum!

You could probably make a lot of money selling Klon Kakes® at guitar conventions and trade shows.crochambeau wrote: Klon shaped cake

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
$145 for the enclosure on their site, so if you can live with a non-spec $45 Klon clone enclosure, that'd be the thing to do, insteadGone Fission wrote:I dunno if Ceriatone sells the enclosure separate from the pedal/kit. That would be the best thing for the repro enclosure—sticking some really contrary thing in instead, like a ring mod or a rehoused Miku.

Why no company has not cloned the Miku is pretty surprising, but maybe it's a Yamaha proprietary thing (hands off, she's mine). Also, can't imagine any clone of that thing wouldn't already sound totally borken anyway, at any price

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
In other news i preordered the warm audio Klon clone. No idea if i will like that. But their Foxx tone machine clone is great so i thought probably worth a try...

Dibs on the flip, at least if anyone wants to split the cost and take the guts so I can put my modded Metal Zone in the housing.univalve wrote:In other news i preordered the warm audio Klon clone.

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
I should note I do like my Klon(e) - and was tempted by the Warm Audio thing simply because they make good toys. I have one of their Jet Phasers and it's everything it said it was.
Sometimes you just want the heft and "feel" of the original thing (same reason I have the Hebrihger SDD-320 rackmount clone, even though I have a Boss DC-2W that does the job just as well).
That said, I'd hate the Klon as my only dirt pedal.
It's more in the same range as my channel strips and EQs for what it does to the sound.

I use a Mosky Klone as my only overdrive. It is fucking awesome.

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
miku is no longer owned by yamaha. yamaha always had a contract with crypton future media inc, the company that developed miku. crypton went independent a couple years ago.coupleonapkins wrote:Why no company has not cloned the Miku is pretty surprising, but maybe it's a Yamaha proprietary thing (hands off, she's mine).

since yamaha is doubtless responsible for the tech inside the korg pedal, it seems pretty unlikely that we'll get a reissue ;~;

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
Thanks! I figured it was probably some proprietary chip or softsquare fancylad eprom or w/e, but I stand by my borkenness as the root cause of clonesmachip from ever happening, even if they were non-Miku Mikus. Borken vocaloid will always sound borkin'!Bartimaeus wrote:miku is no longer owned by yamaha. yamaha always had a contract with crypton future media inc, the company that developed miku. crypton went independent a couple years ago.coupleonapkins wrote:Why no company has not cloned the Miku is pretty surprising, but maybe it's a Yamaha proprietary thing (hands off, she's mine).

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
Wasn't there something in the miku manual about potentially being able to change the voice/samples? I seem to recall reading something when it came out, but never saw anyone explore it.

Just scanned the manual on the official Korg site, and I didn't see any option to do this, unless someone hacked it? It seems to be built as a novelty (takes 2 AA batteries!), without any way to alter the innards without taking out a soldering iron, maybe? I wondered about this, too, before the Stomp turned into unobtainium, but maybe it was the Pocket Miku that I'm confusing it for.dub wrote:Wasn't there something in the miku manual about potentially being able to change the voice/samples?

Meanwhile, Yamaha's Vocaloid 6 (recently updated & totally non-Miku) looks/sounds like a glossy nightmare, but I'm sure someone here could wrangle it into a SNES meltdown with enough time & plugins.
Also, for posterity, here's:

Re: No Fuzz is as Good as a Klon
ah, looking back at the original thread, I think I was remembering the iphone app that went along with the pedal .

Pocket Miku definitely has that possibility under the hood:coupleonapkins wrote: I wondered about this, too, before the Stomp turned into unobtainium, but maybe it was the Pocket Miku that I'm confusing it for.

As well as rather a bunch of MIDI stuff, which is surprising. I've never fussed with any of that. There must be some footage on youtube of someone doing this though?
