Devi console news!

[jasonwalston]

yeah i see that point. I'm always curious what DE pedals people use. A few seem cool but so many of them seem the same to me. (not to derail the current discussion).

Whatevs. Maybe she'll make good video games if she can ever stop bitching about Anita Sarkeesian and back taxes.

i've had a bunch of her stuff i wanted to like, but it all sounded poo on bass. the OK is one i always really liked 82% of.

No way someone big (DOD, EHX, MXR) is taking it on. That would be a PR nightmare.

Anita Sarkeesian

had to google that one...and now to discover what all the hubbub was

[Forrrest]

I'm slightly surprised this happened. I thought ken was gonna bring it home!
.

[D.o.S.]

thing is, most of her pedals were never boutique prices. that was the appeal. $100 interesting fuzzes and drives.

Devi Ever/E13 was, to my memory, the first small company that built pedals that married being outside the box (i.e. the big box of what you could buy at ze local brick + motar) with being as affordable and, you know, as available for purchase as Boss or EHX.

Cliffsnotes?

just googled the Anita Sarkeesian. THERE'S the Devi Drama i haven't seen here for awhile.

i'm not trying to be a dick, but it always seemed to me her pedal stuff started to go downhill when she started focusing more on being angry about things than making cool new interesting loot. doessssssn't seem to bode well to try to break into a new industry starting like that.

eep.

[D.o.S.]

There's a whole lot in Devi's approach that makes her seem sort of perpetually 17.

In a lot of ways, I think that the company was more primed for success before the advent of things like twitter.

[behndy]

lol. THAT is why i stay away from super broad reaching mental diarrhea social site interfaces like twitter and vine and shit.

i would SO say something that i wanted back 2 seconds later.

Wait hold up

Decent little neutral video on Her

[woolyh]

Doesn't seem like it would have ever worked out if the original goal to develop the Console was 20k and she spent 20k (half of the 40k) developing it :\

Bummer and I hope people who invested get at least something back.
