Do you even QOTSA

Stone Deaf just announced that they'll have SIX new pedals for NAMM, plus a new version of the PDF... and a line of amps! Damn!

yeah, definitely interesting stuff. Not sure how I feel about the cartoon-y graphics, but I'll wait to pass judgement until after I hear 'em.

Five new pedals (not including the PDF-2) = 28 knob + 10 switches.
Luke at Stone Deaf is a solid dude and I really like what he does but I sometimes wonder if he builds too much functionality into his pedals, if you know what I mean. Amps will be interesting. I think his amp designer is Australian.

The PDF-1/Maestro MPF-1 is one of the raddest distortion/filters ever. It can also be used to get like 90% of the guitar tone on the first QOTSA record.
Not sure I dig the stylings of the 2 quite as much, but that's ok to me since my PDF-1 isn't going anywhere.

do we know about this? Spatial Delivery Envelope Filter with Sample & Hold

Head on over to that hip new YouTube thing.

I c. Thanks!

:surprise:

But really, I do kinda like their new graphics scheme (Trashy Blonde is no longer so trashy, Fig Fumb is high key early Merrie Melodies, etc.), which is way more appealing than, say, Way Huge's similarly sized boxes.

I really really like the warp drive's aesthetic. Might pick one up just for the pretty.

Teaser audio for the CSIDMAN---

Full release:

CSIDMAN is the epitome of embracing nearly forgotten technological limitations. CSIDMAN functions as if it had a mind of its own: emulating the textures and rhythmic character of a skipping CD. It is an effect that can take a mellow groove and add unexpected tension, chopping the predictable into unpredictable restless stutters, and percussive patterns.

Launch Date: May 23, 2016
Street Price: TBA

The Bicycle is slated for an April 19th release. Street Price: $199.99

The Bicycle Delay is a unique delay with pitch-warped, amorphous repeats. Like a micro dose of morning dew, the Bicycle Delay can emanate lightly affected echoes or hover into nebulous haloes. Much like the intrepid explorer, this pedal responds best when you yield to your instinctual self.

new stone deaf looks kind of similar to dr. no pedals, a bit more stylish though.

Very interested to hear what the Warp Drive can do.
