I don't know about the actual pedals, but I sure would love an OEM Klon shaped cake pan or Jello mold.

Yum!

You could probably make a lot of money selling Klon Kakes® at guitar conventions and trade shows.

$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, instead

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

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.

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.
Distortion is another kettle of fish entirely, of course.

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.

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

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'!

Also respect to cake-eatin' anime & all who sail with it, no matter who says they own you.

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.

saw this KTR clone with a pretty funny hype text

still not miku tho

The suspense is killing me!

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.

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:

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:



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?
