Nels Cline and Mid-Fi?

by **hazelwould** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 11:25 pm

On "Draw Breath" on the song 'Mixed Messages' towards the end is that a Clari(not)? I could SWEAR it sounds like it.

Just curious...

Also could anyone point out and definitive MID-FI moments on any of his albums?

I've read he's a Glitch Computer owner but id like to know what else he uses...

He has a Glitch Computer on his "noise board", but I've never noticed it on one of his albums.

It's number 4, I don't think Doug makes them like that any more though.

sounds like there could be a Pitch Pirate around the 9min mark.

Just remembered this pic -

It's Scott Amendola's board (drummer). I remember reading the orange one is a custom Glitch Computer/Pitch Pirate/fuzz

That is a SEXi board!!!!!!!

Look at the mini-fuzz probe!

Yea I guess it does sound cleaner like the pitch pirate.

that song is a pitch pirate, there is glitch on the giant pin i think....he borrowed one from bobb bruno for it if i recall correctly.
he also has a clarinot, a psych byke/fuzzz, and a random number generator (and 2 pitch pirates).
also jeff tweedy is using a "glitch pirate" double pedal.
and thats that!

Is that a one-off?

yep!
just a regular glitch and a pirate in one big enclosure, nels bought it for jeff for his birthday a couple years back.
rumor has it will be showcased a bit on a new track!
im psyched to see if it ends up somewhere.

Apparently Nels Cline is a huge mid fi fan at the moment. At least according to that guy.

between my clari(not), pitch pirate and peace gun mid-fi has been seriously infecting my rig in the best possible way!

Rock on. You need more pedals with custom graphics on them like that. Nels has a great taste in effects. :thumb:
