Honestly, whatever feature set you decide on is going to be amazing. Like I already mentioned, I am a buyer for any euro version of Pretty Years. I should never have traded the pedal :no:

Dude totally same here. Fuck. LOL. I'm horrible with flipping stuff.

I'd love this in a Euro. I don't know much about that stuff yet, but I feel like it'd be fucking killer.

I was just wondering, what's the best way to stop the pedal "whistling" when it's first plugged in?
I'm looking to get it on my gigging board, but the need to unplug and replug it everytime has kept it off for now.

I am using a Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2 Plus. Yeah, it's abit of an odd one as it seems to happens fairly regularly.
I'm heading back to the UK next week and I'll use the pedal again then and let you know how it's behaving.

Have you looked into Korg Nutubes?
More expensive for sure, but might make euroracking easier?

Who knows, I just found out about them and am intently curious.

We don't want none of them fancy display screens in our fuzz pedals.

Hello!

I realised I haven't posted my example of the Pretty Years as an outboard effect, sort of thing. For my tune (term used loosely) "The Cradle" the PY is giving the preset "Bell Pad" from Mikro Prism a thorough going-over, as heard here:

http://kbospeak.bandcamp.com/album/on-glass

It's amazing how it howls and feeds back on the sustain, isn't it? It wasn't until a later session days later I realised just how hot a signal I was hitting the pedal with. Glad I did! I used the Fuck for a couple of the field recording snippets too.

Thanks for this amazing thing Brian. Can't wait to get a recording setup going again :yay:
Bandcamp for the musics
Instagram for short looping clips and dogs
Youtube for longer looping clips and inactivity
