Random Pedal thread

Yeah, this might be one to put next to the Octa PSI.



I don’t need this, but I kind of do.

Wish they would have used concentric pots for the secondary controls.

I was drooling over that vid the other day

These sorts of one-off minimal-use-case pedals suck, because I like them.

I know it may be controversial, but I’ve always loved the over-the-top look of this pedal!

Kinda cringe-y, but it's a legit-sounding pedal.

I have the Ventura, Polara, and Dirty Robot. They're all pretty cool, but the looks... Meh.

Use the included "StompLock" protector, it hides the face.

How do you turn a super clean Two-Rock CRS into a metal breathing monster?

Three gain levels, responsive EQ, and a useful foot switch activated noise gate make this pedal so much fun!

Heavy Menace

HEAVY MENACE The Heavy Menace is the most versatile distortion pedal that Empress Effects has ever created. It’s an evolution of the original Heavy with new features and a compact enclosure. In addition to the original Heavy and Heavier modes, the Heavy Menace adds a new Lite(ish) mode...

This looks brilliant. Parametric mids ftw!!!!

I didn’t want to start a new thread and then thought of this post. I bought two “random” pedals today. With coupons and such it was $83 for both including taxes/shipping. That’s my pal, @timbuck3 level of budgeting wisely! He’s the equivalent of our CFO.

Never even heard of these but here’s the Mooer LoFi Machine and the NUX ‘63 Diamond Amp Reissue.
Telephone line type tone and a VAIB with top boost. This ought to be fun!

Not to burst your bubble - gave the Mooer a try about 10 years ago, when I had my weirdo soundscapes phase on a tight-ass budget, and took it back to the shop the same afternoon.
Maybe you'll find more joy in it, but I was massively underwhelmed.

That Nux Vox (Nox? Vux?) might be awesome tho.

Thanks for the heads up @dronerstone ! I consider it a toy/one trick pony thing but your perspective is appreciated!

Report back on the Nux @KingsXJJ . Might be a cool little addition to the "arsenal"

A friend suggested last week I should hook up my 50 plus Beringer pedals and play through the lot .
Film it and put it on YouTube .
Do you think people would be interested in seeing that ?

PastFX SD1/OD1 variant

This one is an unusual pedal. It's cool with guitars, synth... whatever you want to run into it. It's a creative noise maker, a textural effect, random chaos if needed. Not something you'd use a lot, but could be perfect for that one section in a song. I've had it for a number of years and like it.

From their webpage: https://lalweb.com/mc/mc-e.html

The "MISTY CAVE - analog resonance echo" (MC) is an effect pedal which creates a kind of reverb/echo.

Characterized by a sound of a space that is resonant to the pitches of the input signal.

It makes the sound of delay style oscillating feedback which decays naturally. This increases the playability of your instrument over other delay pedals. You can control which note oscillates using the D.TIME control.

There is the "CV PEDAL" jack to control the "D.TIME" with the expression pedal.

Watched that this morning and think it sounds great. I want one.

Andy make everything sound amazing. No exceptions here….
