I'm supposed to be hearing back from Industrialectric soon about my RM-1N and Echo Degrader as well. Super happy for those.

That's a harsh description of the Pitchgrinder. I love it. Why didn't you like it?

[Strange Tales]

I just call it worst pedal ever because I traded my No Memory for it.

I don't like it at all. No matter what I run through it, bass, guitar, synth, farts, it all sounds the same in the end and that really, really irks me. Barely any variation in how anything sounds once its spit out. Except for a drum machine, that just sounds absolutely awful.

Maybe that was a fundamental misunderstanding of the pedal and is totally my fault. I just thought that there would be at least SOME variety in the sounds when I put different things through there. But with no clean blend on there I just couldn't stand that everything ended up making the same noises.

[Inconuucl]

If it makes it any better the No Memory broke almost immediately after it arrived to my Shores. It stopped affecting the signal,but the dry still goes through. I've sent PMs to Brian but he has yet to see them, I'll probably email him later today.

I loved the pitchgrinder, but I would love it a lot more if it had a clean blend. It would have added a lot of versatility to it.

[Strange Tales]

Oh wow thats a bummer dude. I was really happy that the modulation seemed to work perfectly, but looks like it hit you as well.

I'm just going to happily wait for the V2 of the No Memory, because it is a fantastic delay.

You try messing around with the power supply at all? I had a no memory briefly and thought it had showed up dead. It passed signal but no effect. I ended up having to pull the power supply while the pedal was engaged and then plug the supply back in to get an effected signal. It did this on a few occasions so I decided to part with it.

Hoping v2 has all the quirks ironed out as I had one of the early v1's.

[Inconuucl]

Always, I tried it with two different spots in my PP2+, then on its own wall wart, and then through one of my external batteries.

[coldbrightsunlight]

IN!!!!



The eyes light up and it sounds killeeeeerrrr. In your face raunchy rawk fuzz sound. Love it.

[coldbrightsunlight]

Yea your pedalboard is the tell tail sign. You dick.

This ILF not I love being a pansy that doesn't like fucking fuzz!!!!

Hey hey hey now.

I do still love fuzz. My dirt is all away at the spa.

I just haven't found many lately that I'm like "I MUST HAVE."

Devi BDSM seems fun but I don't have 2 amps to get the full effect. Mantic Vitriol was on my list but there aren't enough demos, and the ones I've heard all make it sound pretty scooped. Those are really the only 2 that have excited me. Oh and the new Dunwich one knob pedals but they're not out yet.

I've been missing my Buzzz though. So I think I'm just gonna go for it. Again.

Nahhh the BDSM is great even through 1 amp, I love it. I would definitely not let that put you off, I use 1 amp 99% of the time and it's my current fav bass fuzz.

[neonblack]

How well does it sound in a mix? I can't do scooped. My ears hate the sound. I know its meant to EAT THE MIX but does it deliver?

[coldbrightsunlight]

Haven't used it live or recorded yet so I don't really know sorry! Doesn't sound very scooped to me though. Just big and monstrous.

My Montreal Assembly Positive (Hotcake-style distortion) finally got here today after a long journey from the frozen north of Canada:



Haven't played it yet. I'll get it on my board after work !

[Dark Barn]

Laugh all ya want.
I preordered a Boss SY-300.

Dat tracking. We'll see if it can make any good sounds, lol.

I have this problem too and like the other dudes said you fix it by powering it up, engaging it, unplugging the power while it's on, then plugging it in again. It occurs regardless of how it is powered. I don't think its a problem with the dc power but rather I think the pt-chips Brian got might be kinda dodgy.

Mine also randomly adds a few seconds to the delay time which is also solved by pulling the power supply while engaged.

Please run that straight into 20 different delicious layers of noise and fuzz, I want to experience the chaos that ensues.

nice!
you can never trust gear demos for stuff like that, and plenty of the roland synth units are full of goddamn awesome sounds.
looking forward to hearing an ILFer's first hand impression for sure.
