although this idea isn't all that original, it's something i've been thinking about and obsessing about for years . i think i'm finally at that stage where i can make it happen... here's a little simulated demo idea i put together. i have ALL the details to think about so this will be on the backburner and i'm open to ideas about how to make it better. goddamn i wish i could post in the main forum without feeling too spammy... it is only an idea, though.

certainly some refinements will need to be made - vibrato depth, overall overdrive distortion sound, filter, etc.
thoughts/comments?

So, have it be MIDIish, to where it like, chimes to each note?

huh? no no those chimes are in the music

it's doing the vibrato, crackling, gain and filtering.

Ohhhh, so like the modulation section of a Lo-Fi Loop Junky, but maxxed hardcore?

yeah more or less. with some other options as well... maxxxed, though.

Kinda sounds like a lo-fi loop junky and a mindwarp mashed together

Baddassssss.
Not that I use them, but an expression control would kill things with awesome.

I want this badly

I like this alot..if you turned the vibrato depth all the way off, could you use something like this as a controllable lo-fi filter?
It would be cool if you could control what sort of 'lo-fi' sound it had..and maybe controls that altered the way the distortion circuit interacts with everything else?

yes to the first part... i think each block of the circuit will be controllable in some way, though i want the controls to be as simple as possible as it's the combination of effects that make the particular sound:
vibrato, crackle, gainstage, filter

that sounds really cool!

It sounds like getting sick on a merry-go-round at the carnival, passing out and then being molested by my uncle in a clown suit.
That's one of my favourite memories evar.

This is the first pedal in a while to get me excited. I hope this makes its way into production.

This is spectacular.

The pedal sounds great!

And this sounds very disturbing... in a familiar way.
