This is a test.
This is only a test.
If this were an actual drone emergency, you would proceed to the nearest exit at the sound of the first note of the tanpura.
Thank you.

Yeah, an octave fuzz, some sort of multimode digital delay, a looper, and something envelope driven too, whether its a filter or envelope controlled delay cause I could imagine it would sound cool with the sitaringing

Saw a guy busking once with a sitar and the most beaten up looking boss delay i have ever seen, looked like it had been burn in a fire or in an explosion or something
But it sounded really cool
Flanger, delay, a big reverb, particle
Man it would be fun to have an electric sitar

Thanks, guys.
I'm pretty sure I've tried it with octave fuzz before. Can't remember if I liked it. Will have to try again.
Flanger and delay are a given. Always sounds great with those.
Wah wah is good too.
Yeah, it's pretty fun, tomlane95. I love it.

I did not ask for the best sitar effects for doom.

I would think that the combination of a real sitar being processed through a fake sitar sound box might make for some interesting effects. But that's just one man's opinion.

Reverb. Probably a kickable spring reverb.
Also, don't be a tease. Clips.

I just played it through the pedals I've been playing through lately. Which includes the Randy's Revenge.

It's not even a real sitar. It's really just a guitar with a jawari bridge.
