That does sound like something I will have to try. I'm fairly sure people have run other pedals in what amounts to a Zoia FX loop.

Input L > output L > pedal or pedals > input R > output R > onwards

Doing that I could have an infinite no. of Zoias running in parallel :)

The Post Office has been trying to deliver this to my job before we open for a week, they finally left a tag so I could just pick it up.

Ezhi&Aka Brom... Fuzz

I've been casually eyeing this one for a few months, Laowiz happened to have one for sale and was kind enough to ship it back to the old continent.

I was intrigued by the parallel-mixing approach to three different fuzz voices, and it makes it really easy to set on the fly - obviously you have to like the original voicing of those, 'cause there's no room to change it very much other than messing with guitar knobs or other pedals placed in front of it.

Of the 4 knobs on it, 3 are dedicated volumes for the three fuzzes (Noise/Ringmod, Tape, Amp) and the fourth one on the top sets the rate for the noise engine.
Being parallel, the interaction between one and another is limited and mostly just a matter of frequencies jumping in and out when mixing them, but the envelope and ring mod switches add a good dose of unpredictability. :animal:

The envelope tapestop is wild but just takes a few minutes to understand how it reacts to picking, same with the autoswell, which is cool for mid tempo swells but glitches out a bit with long sustained notes.

The noise-floor of the noise/ringmod engine is surprisingly quieter than i expected - just to be clear: it pops when working with lower-frequency rates, but that's it.

Nice write-up. I find it super interesting from what clips I've heard. Year of dirt, indeed!

Some friends with fast fingers gave me a heads up and I was able to finally snag an OG Silver Rose, all the way from Canadaland. All the weirdness aside, sounds great! i think if i dial this in right it could be a member of the Clang gang.

Full family shot.

Nine months and one cancelled preorder later, got my dream synth (since I saw Elena Poulou play one when I got to see the Fall). Darker green in person, more army green, better than I hoped for

i'm greener with envy at that than the actual synth is. The Fall are another band i didn't get into till they were gone, and sadly there won't be a reunion.

Well done Alec! That DE family gives me all the feels when I first joined this forum - I had a Sliver Rose and sadly like most DE things it died on me and I returned it.

I just have the dumbest gas for Neural DSP Quad Cortex - I keep coming back to it and keep reading good things about it. I am almost afraid to keep reading as my board is pretty spot on and anything I am adding now is just for the LULZ and because I can - I would hate for it to knock almost everything off but it would be the ultimate upgrade for my little desk / jam area.

But again I know better and this is just the flavor of the month- there is always something else down the line.

Also baratone gas has not gone away.

I know - I have been fucking around with bass my entire life and never drifted towards guitar land - I'd figure a baratone is still in the bass register and I can do some shredding at the same time. I owned a really nice G&L at one point but sold it like a dumbass
