Any Doom Bloom owners here?

I'm thinking of selling/trading my Black Arts Toneworks LSTR towards a Doom Bloom, but there's only one clip I've found of the Doom Bloom, and it really didn't do anything for me. It's alright, but not anything my LSTR can't do and then some. I know the DB has gotta be able to do WAY more coming from the Algal Bloom, but I need to know, ya know?

I use my LSTR all sorts of ways, for traditional trashy to heavy Muff tones, to Muff fuzz with a good amount of mids added in, and most recently I've taken to using it as a fuzz boost for either lower gain chunky fuzz tones into my clean channel, or stacked with one of my other boost/drive/fuzz pedals or amp.

In my mind I want the Doom Bloom to be something that can cover Muff to Tonebender Mk 2 to maybe BeeBaa type fuzz tones, but with more flexibility and the ability to get truly crazy ripping huge power chords and chunk. I need something that has some mass, I need to be able to palm mute, and must have aggressive enough mids to cut through next to a 6505+.

Bump, cus I'd like to know too.

Not sure if you're refering to the same clip, but the only one I could find seems to be recorded with an iphone or something...Which is the best way to make any pedal sound like a ds-1 :facepalm:

I've been waiting for the Fuzzhugger Tourbox for like a year and that's really the only goddamn pedal I wanted to try.

It does suck that there is so little out there on it, but I have been so impressed with my stock Algal Bloom that the changes and additions are sure to make it a monster.

Mad Titan, I wouldn't sell your LSTR (they rule and are hugely underrated) until you hear/read more but easy for me to say...I got tired of waiting and signed up for the March run of Doom Blooms, so I'll get back at you dudes in about a month.

I'm curious to hear some input on the Doom Bloom too...ever since I saw this video I have been thinking about picking up some kind of Algal Bloom - just don't know which one will fit my tone best. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHnHhcsKYg0
