Nice! New Dirty Bursts soon?
I have an idea to expand this set up and record something but I don't have much of a timeline or plan. Just getting back into the swing of things now that my traveling is winding down.

I've only messed around with it for a few hours but:

- I love it.
- The drone sounds spectacular.
- Unless I find some way of softening up the shaker, I don't think I'll use it too much. It's soooo harsh.
- I have to boost the signal on the theremins in order to use them as regular theremins (like in the instagram video where I use the DBA), but they're so much fun to play with. Smart move having two of them on there for different pitches/freqs.
- Tracer has a learning curve, but can result in some psychedelic "whoa duuuude" moments.
- Makes me experiment with pedal combinations and different patchings, and so far it looks as if I'll end up having an enormous tabletop setup, because it makes pedals come alive in such a unique way. Very inspirational!
- I love it

For those of you who use tabletop stuff and have pedals with CV inputs : consider the Koma Kommander as a controller. Nice little thing.

Sounds sexy, looking forward to it. Take your time, though.

I like it a lot too, but it took some time to find the best place to use the IR and to dial it in for the range.

I usually turn down the shaker and loop it through something lo-fi to give me some rumbles (like a boss DD or something where I can hold the quick burst and pitch it)...helps a little bit (i'm also not a dude that wishes he had a harsh noise maraca to shake while somebody sings their little heart out either...so I just use it as a foundation thing to fade in and out with).

The Theremins are a little weird, but I kinda knew what to expect already having the old soap dish one.

Awesome. I'm glad you enjoy it. That active mixer Hypno built for you looks awesome!

I want a coronado somoething shocking, why the fuck is it discontinued, really? Bring it back as a CV squier even and I would be ALL over it.
Seems like you had a big loud day though.

I spent an hour lying on the ground playing with a Behringer Ultra Flange which has been circuit bent by the amazing CBMods out of Western Australia.
The pedal itself plus a lead not plugged into anything served as the only sound sources. So much fucking radness.
I recorded about 25 inutes of it for future use, just DI with the boxidizer. Having big long pitchy feedbacky stuff then tapping the lead with my thumb for shorter transients and looping them in the Ct5. Hell fun.

I dig this. I recently bought the orange crush and realized that it's so much better for fuzz pedals than the micro terror. Here is a shot where I was recording directly though. El cap>ultra fuzz>space. Everything on an reverb on el cap turned to the max. I really liked the sounds and ended up making a song that I had wanted to make since forever. Getting into making doomgaze-y music with a fair amount of noise elements
