Some pedals incoming

Unpopular opinion, I'm using the EHX Ripped Speaker as a gate.

I run gain at zero, volume/tone set to "neutral", then adjust bias knob until it starts gating, and run it in a loop switcher after all my drives.

It was a happy accident that led me there. The best discovery I made in a few years, tbh.

How in the world did you come to this thought process?

I literally have no idea.

Happened when I was stacking fuzz and I discovered the Ripped Speaker is awesome as a slightly-farty boost and can make any drive pedal you run into it a gated one.

Probably sound cool on the right things!

It's perfect for doom/stoner/garage stuff, especially when you're as obsessive as me regarding noise.

Zero noise there. ZERO.
