I just ordered a Drowner, because more pedals will both make me play better and increase my happiness.

They seem to be making some rad stuff, though the secondary functions on that delay scare me.
Anyone else jamming their gear or want to get on the hype train with me?

I've got a Pizzacrusher (which is currently in its box) I like it a lot.

Yassss, Darko makes some wonderful pedals.
Re-Drowner: i don't like the shimmer thing in general but the combination of fuzz+crush+reverb and the ability to switch their order makes me want to grab one each time there's one for sale - not that there aren't dirt+reverb alternatives out there, but it just clicks most of what i'd like in that combo. A report is expected
The Young Hearts has been my main delay for a while now. Really nice pt2399 delay toanz with tweakable modulation. The oscillation fs is super cool, all the different combinations might not be not really intuitive at the beginning, but after a while you get familiar with those. In case you have no interest in feedback and oscillation you can always set up the secondary fs for tap tempo or for a secondary delay time and switch between two time settings on the fly.
I thought I made a detailed review of the YH last year but can't seem to find where, maybe i never did.

I recall chatting with you about it - I recall you telling me not to be afraid of the secondary functions. But I don't recall a review as such. Write one up next time you need to avoid some work.

Yes. 100%. It’s his signature pedal.

Hopefully coming by the weekend along with the other ones, finally had the chance to play a bit more in the last few days.
Anyways, today I was wandering about buying a second YH but Black to complete the colour coordinated board.
And cop Blackened obviously.
