You missed it... there was one a b/s/t just a couple of weeks ago (i bought it :p )

Now I gotta get a decent flooper and see what kinda noise I can get out of her.

Mine just arrived in the mail today! Had a bit of a time tracking one down. These are becoming very scarce and with good reason.

Truly unreal! It does a superb "normal" slapback that is instantly and completely addicting.

I haven't even begun to the scratch the surface of what this device is capable of, but it is clearly a home run pedal purchase.

The Clari(not) is a fun pedal with too many sounds to count inside it. The fuzz part makes it so great too. Hoping Mid-Fi comes back with a vengeance soon!
Do you like listening to homemade music? Me too. Why don't you try one of mine?

I just purchased a Clari(not) and I have a feeling it's going to be one of my favorite effect units for years to come. A definite must-have for anyone obsessed with dirty, wow and fluttery, seasick soundscapes. It can make even the most sterile digital synth patch sound like a well-worn Mellotron tape set.

Effector 13 (by OohLaLa) - Synth Mangler, Torn's Peaker and Truly Beautiful Disaster. Dwarfcraft Devices - Thumping Double Squaresnakes and Rot Yr Brain. Malekko - Vibrato, Ekko 616. Mid-Fi Electronics - Singing Spoon, Pitch Pirate, and Clari(not). Earthquaker Devices - Disaster Transport, Hoof, Bit Commander, Sea Machine. Fuzzhugger Phantom Octave, AB Synth.

I just got mine in the mail today, and now I don't want to go in to work! I just want to stay home and play with this thing all day. The breadth of sounds that you can get out of this little box is just amazing. The basic fuzztone is fantastic, and with just a bit of depth dialed in, it just... breathes... like nothing else. But then there's the delay... and the tracking... and... and... and... :omg:

Also, I haven't had as much time to play with this as I'd like, but stacking the Clari with other pedals is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. For example, Wolf Computer > Clari(not) = BADASSERY!

I suspect it will fit in just fine... and if not, you know it'll find a loving home around here reeeeeeeeeeeeal quick.

Not to keep raving, but has anyone else tried putting modulation before their Clari(not)? I put my bent BF2, and the Clari went INSAAAAAANE!!! Like, totally crazy-go-nuts.






:idea:
I think I'm gonna do that again!

if you haven't done it....

you absolutely have to buy a ohnoho utter stutter and put the clari(not) in the loop...

its freakin bliss.... i mean so freakin cool... start working your volume knob and the fun never ends... i jammed with my buddy for about an hour over one bass riff doing this and we both were grinning like freakin school girls the whole time... :)

That does sound like fun... actually, I haven't tried the Clari in any feedback loop yet, which is a foolish oversight on my part & must be rectified!
