Just look at this fucking thing.

Its badass, absolutely gorgeous, glows in the dark, astrophage purple LEDs, and sounds incredible.

Custom built by the one and only u/pandagrahams (his Marathon themed 5150 in a box pedal made me reach out to him instantly) with a simple request, go nuts and create a true ssbs Fuck clone with a sci-fi theme. We discussed Interstellar and PHM and his final design is literal perfection. I have a Lightspeed clone before it, and love feeding it 10% hair and slight eq to boost the high mids. I'm using it for a mathpunk weird hardcore album (Refused meets Daughters meets Mars Volta) and it sounds great with everything I throw at it.

I ordered up a cioks power supply as I was getting terrible interference from my cheap mosky power supply so this has fixed it. Anyone with a cheap power supply, get yourself an upgrade! I decided to also order a RAT with this after seeing them for years and everyone on here screaming about them.

Well, holy crap. I didn’t have high expectations but this pedal delivers. I have probably 30-40 overdrives (yes, I have problems!) but never got round to trying this. It’s so versatile and sounds fantastic. Can do everything from light overdrive to Van Halen Marshall type tones to metal.

If you’ve not tried a RAT and were sceptical like myself, just go buy one already.

Beautiful stereo saturation and degradation machine from Pladask Elektrisk.

I particularly like the Wave Sampler and Texture modes, and I think it'd be really interesting with piano and synths, or even a kalimba.

What EAE should I get next to run into the Citadel? I play mostly jam band style music.

It is likely that many folks have purchased this pedal and had remorse once they got it home. The controls are confusing. It is much easier to make terrible sounding noises than sounds pleasing to the ear. Like me, I would guess most people don’t even understand what this pedal does exactly. When I plugged into this pedal, it was like coming home to place I’ve never been.

I love using weird noises and glitchy madness in the music I play. When the Data Corrupter showed up at my local shop, I had to give it a try. Here is my description of what it does. Keep in mind, I don’t really know how this pedal works.

The Data Corrupter seems to turn your guitar signal into three different sounds. The volume of each of these sounds can be mixed in using the three small knobs at the top. The three sounds are:

Master Oscillator which is a synth type sound with octave and interval options.

Subharmonic which is another synth type sound. One of those two has wild modulation you can switch from glide to sign wave. This is where the video game laser gun sounds reside.

Square wave nasty fuzz which is at full gain always and adds a massive or subtle wall of fuzz to the mix.

I found some great sounds right away. Wild shit can happen when you stop playing suddenly or play more than one string. This pedal is supposed to be monophonic. So more than one note sends it into chaos. It’s a lot of fun.

If you add a bit of stereo delay to it, that’s when business really picks up for the Data Corrupter. My favorite about this pedal is it’s very stable. If you play something with certain settings, you can easily repeat the same playing and get the same sound. Most of the synth pedals I own are unpredictable at times. Which is cool, but at times makes it impossible to repeat what you just did.

Do you have this pedal or have questions about it? Did you buy it then hate it? I get it.
Let me know and thanks for reading.

I always avoided graphic equalizers on my pedalboards. Mainly because all my previous setups relied on multi-effects units, which I already had installed, and on my analog pedalboard, because I was afraid of the background noise.

Now, with a two-knob EQ on my amp, something to control the mids became essential.

So here it is. Very low noise, with all the parametric bands, easy to use, and for around €100.

This just dropped today. The demos sound sick! I have one on the way. The only pedal I have ever purchased on the first day of release. Can’t wait for my NPD.

Esse é meu board atual, basicamente toco em igreja e em casa costumo tocar classic rock/blues, ultimamente esse set tem me suprido porem necessito de um drive de mais ganho. Dentro desse tipo de musica sugerem algum pedal?

​

It's the first version of my first board, the pedalboard is big because I want to put more pedals to it, cable management is very sloppy but it works

I recently acquired a 1984 Peavey Foundation bass that turned out to be in great condition under years (decades?) of grime, so I wanted to try and put together a bass rig for. I already had an Orange Crush 50 and a deep bench of pedals, so why not? The amp is solid state, and the bass, while more than adequate for my needs, needs a little help to get a warm, fat sound, so why not try the SFT? Between that and the Compressor+ (always on), it really helps the rig get closer to a decent tube amp sound, and if I want to get more of a "desert" sound, the Stones/Stoner button and the Green Rusaian help get me there.

Keely Compressor+ > EHX Nano Green Russian reissue > Catalinbread SFT (Stones mode) > EHX Bad Stone > Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe > Catalinbread Talisman (plate reverb) > TU-3 > EHX 360

Edit: just a lazy ass hole. Got it out today around 3:30. Is now revoking claims and can’t stop himself from lying. The name will be posted.

Long story short. No names unless I can confirm this dudes scamming me. Smells like a scam but I won’t say it factually until all doubt is eliminated. Bought a used pedal on reverb. Label created basically immediately or the next day. Well within proper time and impressive.

But then… nothing. No updates. Nothing. Tracking still show it wasn’t even taken to a location for mailing. It’s still sitting. Over the allotted time for reverb.

So I contacted buyer. Buyer assures it’s been mailed. Another 24 hours pass. No updates. So I simply sent another inquiry about what’s going on. Then it got weird.

The seller began not answering any questions and instead claiming they were insulted that I asked. So I said whatever, asked for a refund and hoped I could move on. Denied. More insults from buyer claiming I don’t know how the mail system works (I use it about 3-4 times a week for mailing).

Then it got REALLY weird. They reported me.. for something? Jumping the gun before I could. But I did anyway. Now support needs to work with them before me? Weird stuff.

Finally, the seller offered me a full refund. So I sent the request. And obviously, in that moment, they fell off a cliff and stopped responding.

This is obviously a scam, right?

Absolutely shameless. Am I wrong to think that it’s absolutely shameless? They don’t even try to pretend that they didn’t buy the thing just to resell it at twice the price as soon as they get it. Ugh.

I'd like to know what are the characteristics of those pedals in the following use/context :

- Edge of break up tone.

- pushing/tightening your dirty amp tone.

- Boost for clean and dirty tone.

What would each pedal does in those situations?

I've been playing guitar for 26 years and always been a multi guy and never used pedals, so I'd like to finally know what people actually mean or refer to when they compared SD1 overdrive to a TS one.

Any input would be appreciated.

Specifically looking for pedals to tame/balance the famous MUFF/Fuzz mid-scoop that I can put directly after a MUFF/Fuzz in my signal path.

Calling experienced MUFF/Fuzz users!

Spend way too much time on this, enjoy! Link in the comments

I’m doing the 4 cable method in mono and everytime I add the fx loop L block to my preset my analog overdrive pedals pop when I turn them off and on.

Cables are all fine and I haven’t changed anything with powering the pedals via my walrus canvas hp plus.

When running all my pedals normally without the 4 cable method I have no pops or issues.

The photo is just so you can see what I’m using, it was taken before I connected the fx send/return on the side of the HX.

Thanks for any help.

I have one. but my guitarist uses it. lol i sorta wanna reclaim it cause i dont want it to break on tour or something, but wanna replace it with something comparable.

what do yall think sounds and works very similarly?

I see that boss ex-4 is preorder everywhere. I have not seen a date though? Has anyone seen one?

On my quest to have as many of my pedals have master volumes as possible I’ve added the new echoflanger to the board. It does everything I wanted from the Andy Summers pedal with the added benefit of unity gain. It does weird fun stuff too but I’ll be mostly using it as a flanger and it does a great job at that. I’m also learning to dial in the Diamond Vibrato. I found it very dark when set to pure vibe, but adding in some chorus brought some sparkle back. Still not as bright as my old VB-2W but that thing has a crazy volume boost with my setup. While I’ll admit there’s some overlap in my pedal choices overall this board really suits my needs and it is aesthetically pleasing to me to boot.

My “clean” tone is the Euphoria at edge of breakup. If I need pure clean tone I just switch it off. I run the DRV to a moderate distortion tone, with the hoof stacked after it for big fuzz sounds. The spires works as a fuzzy lead boost. The mod/ delay/ reverb chain is in its own loop to facilitate big dynamic shifts with multiple pedals coming on/ off simultaneously. The katana is just a nice clean boost that doesn’t change the tone after both loops. Tuner at the end to kill the entire signal when needed.

It’s all Velcro’d to a pedaltrain classic 2 and powered by a cioks dc7

Looking to buy a space echo pedal, i really like the twist function with the dark dreamy echo tape delay, but i use heavy amounts of gain. Would this pedal work with my setup?

It would be on my pedal board going into the from of a marshall DSL 100w half-stack on the high gain channel.

I’m looking for some sort of fuzzy but not too fizzy pedal for my board. I’ve used a regular big muff a lot for recording, but whenever I bring it with the band, it just vanishes in the mix. I have a rat and it’s solid, but I’ve never loved it.

How does a Rat compare to the newer small Big Muff 2? From what I’ve read and heard the BM2 has a lot more mods than the regular ones so maybe it’s better for band use?
