So, I've been thinking about putting together a noise board.
What is your preference in noise fare (tone generators, oscillators, and whatnot?)
How are you routing your signal(s)?

when im makin noise
those are always the culprits
this is gonna be a good thread

I usually have two oscillators/synths- one for bassy rubling drones, and then the second one for the contrasting staticy/oscillation/wild shit. I run the second one through a TON of delay, and the first through thick bassy dirt!

I run my Drone Commander through my whole pedal board but my favorite pedals for noise/drone stuff are fuzzes with feedback loops and oscillation, delay (really love my DD7 especially), reverb, ring mods are dope, I love to use the CV out function of the Randy's Revenge into my Faye Sing for choppy square wave phasing too.

It took me a while to see the appeal of dedicated lil oscillator boxes. i think getting reared on modular synths and mixer feedback i saw it as going one way or the other, with the oscillator box as a compromise. very little control save for the seemingly arbitrary twiddling of knobs unlike a modular synth where there is tons of control, and on the other hand, the sounds being something you could get from mixer feedback or other such goofery. i have since changed my evil ways, and i seem the for how rad they are.

my setup for noise is still pretty austere, shure vocalmaster head into dd-5 or rv-5. add some modulation in the feedback. or keep it loose.

fuck it, always keep it loose

filters and modulation. i like things that make the signal go WOOOOOOOOSH. i'd like to get into some more advanced EQ, ideally something with a couple of parametric stages that could switch low/mid/high pass and some kind of graphic EQ that's large enough to manipulate the sliders without squinting. maybe the solution there is to get rackmounted EQs.

Sometimes , like right now, I use all my King Capitol / Skychord Osc with some TGD to bring the NOIZE!!!

now a days, i record vocal samples from black exploitation movies or porn and 3 or 4 samples of the trogo 666 doing weird shit and fire them off at the same time in a never ending loop for a sort of sonic foundation.

then i use a contact mic'ed computer panel plugged into 2 fuzz pedals and an eq. with everything on, i beat the shit out of the panel with a chain, pole, other pieces of metal, scrape it with beer bottle caps, ect. sampler and pedals are routed into a little DOD resistance mixer with the output going into a powered JBL speaker. everything is usually velcro'd into a rondo pedal board. i really only want to plug in one or two power cords for my shows for a quick get away.

Guh I haven't recorded noise in so long. I want to so bad

do it dude. it doesnt take that long to make a working setup. your shit is always really good.

i finally got a new audio interface. im waiting on a used tube preamp then im gonna record a whole bunch of shit.

Once you get moved in we'll schedule something fun.

YES. YES ANCIENT. YES DELAYDECAY.

I'MMA DO IT. I think part of why I hadn't had a noise setup in forever is because I never wanted to take my delays off my board. But since I've got two spares atm, I'm gonna put something together next week and get recording. Thinking I need a Moog Ring Mod again

Oh and though expensive, the Dwarfcraft PitchGrinder is like the best noise pedal ever

damn
look at all them knobs
