Let's see your PEDAL BOARD!

[backwardsvoyager]

it sounds like the world caving in

I scare myself

I didn't know how absolutely fucking immense SOUND ITSELF could be until I put a bowed gong through a micro pog and some delay. holy fucking shit

would love to hear a clip sometime!

what are your thoughts on the starlight DLX? I'm tossing up between that and a strymon orbit, a lot of $$$ for a flanger but it seems pretty insane.

bowed gong + pog + starlight flanger = kill neighbors

Non of your pedals seem to have any power whenever the photos are taken.

Yeah, i just do that so the picture's aren't so messy with cables. I'll usually wind up moving the pedals physically too because sometimes they all won't fit in a picture. like those expression pedals, when playing they were off to the side lined up proper. I'm just trying to give a look at the signal flow, the physical layout sometimes changes when playing. when there are mooger fooger's I don't hook up the patch cabling because it would look like more shit than most of my photos already do.
Also, alot of my pedals only run on batteries. And the newer ones with the option I've already a/b'd with ac/batteries and go with which ever sounds best. Also the settings on the pedals are only where i start.

I thought that might be the case.

I didn't think anyone still used batteries.

Dude, we need a clip of that. You'd be an evil cocktease if you didn't post something, ANYTHING!

ughhjhh.... I want to get better at bowing gongs before I do something. but seriously, I WILL do something with this, a track, a long minimalist track at least. so much to do with this

I'll try and upload a few sounds tonight

it's crazy! got to get a handle on everything because it's easy to switch modes and accidentally get loudness for a second. you get used to it, how to tweak it live. it's a lot of fun

Alot of my pedal ONLY use batteries. or have the option for a wall wart/etc but use an odd style "plug in part". in general i actually prefer batteries cause there is less of a mess.

Geeze cloudscapes!
Hollow earth, micro pog, superego, anti-nautilus(?)......damn. You got any clips of these beauties together?
Even better, do you have any recording projects in the works?

[Uncle Grandfather]

The first fuzzes off.....there can be only one.

okay, I just recorded some clips which I'll upload in an hour or so.
jesus christ. I just gave myself a fucking heart attack. I'm still shaking. I am NOT using this setup again until I do it more intelligently. I pushed/twisted something I shouldn't have and feedback/gong like I've never heard just exploded through the amp. never again, at least not through an amp, and not without a bunch of limiters/compressors.

I'll leave the explode in the recording for kicks. the kind of sound that makes you afterwards not want to emit a single decibel for at least a couple days, in utter fear of your neighbor's wrath

in the works, ehhh sort of. with the band yes, but most of our stuff isn't ready. this track is sort of close to complete, at least

as for solo stuff, lots of unfinished crap, nothing concrete in years. played on the radio recently, sounded like this

i just came

okay, clip of gong through effects, sometimes bowed, sometimes "gonged" lightly but repeatedly, or just tapped. here is the clip *without* the screetching death sound of pain at the end

http://dronecloud.org/stuff/killgong.mp3

now, here is the same clip but with an extra ten seconds at the end. turn your volume down at 5:10
I AM NOT FUCKING KIDDING
seriously, it sounds like the end of the world

^ That's awesome.
Xenakis and Parmegiani would probably like this setup.

[cloudscapes]

playing gong through pedals flattens houseplants and inverts the polarity of small children.

you all have been warned.

[intothegroove]

WOW That is
