Been a while since we had a HARMONIC PERCOLATOR thread, no?

Almost any other dirt?

I've found percolators go well with just about any other dirt pedals.

I've found percolators go well with just about any other dirt pedals.

I've had good luck with a klon type, but the combined noise is just ridiculous. mixed results with a d+ type thing.
i'm trying to find something with plenty of low end, i guess is should try an op-amp muff maybe.

I usually default to Muff-style fuzzes (including op amp), but have also enjoyed results with Boss HM-2 and Roland AF-100 Bee Baa variants as well and Orange, Fender, and Marshall-type amp overdrive. The noise level can definitely be a bit much, but resulting feedback can mask it.

Clubber Lang in da house. Need to get a chance to let it rip.

I did a couple of gigs with my Even Anguish into EQD Monarch. Suitably massive, but not muddy.

So did anyone ever try out the Chimeric Percolator? They're also making an Improbability Drive clone.

Which HP inspired pedal has the most volume? Seems like every HP demo I watch the volume is cranked but it doesn’t seem too loud. Maybe the Dirge Even Anguish or EAE Dude Incredible?

[Chankgeez]

Even Anguish does have a lot of volume.

I also like the Fredric Utility Perk. Stomping Stones At Action Perk is very nice as well. Land Devices HP-2 (with the switch to the right) can also get loud. Champion Leccy Divvy is good too. Been meaning to try a Joe Gore Porkolator. I think all those pedals solve the volume issue. Some are more accurate representations of the original circuit than others. It's a weird circuit and I think the improvements are mostly welcome IMO.

I believe any Percolator clone capable of removing the clipping from the signal path with get you loud enough though.

i guess i'm in the minority, but i don't want pedals to be so massively loud that they can't come down to unity gain with the unaffected signal. i don't "drive amps," i mix voices, and they have to be relatively consistent in volume. that's why i sold my Tone Reaper...it was almost impossible not to get a massive volume leap when engaged, and that's no better for me in a hypothetical band setting than it is on loops.
