Yea same here.

It's fun when I thought I was going to get spacy ambient and I got some harsh noise haha.

Great demo as usual UG. Do they still make those Persephones? I remember when they came out in 2004 I was all excited until I saw the list price...which like a month of paychecks at the time haha. Still wouldn't mind getting one someday though.

You're makng me want to ship my synths faster now haha!

Last I heard they were making the mkII, that's when I scored this one second hand for a great price. That was years ago though so I'm not sure? Their lo-fi ribbon synth is pretty incredibly versatile.

I'll head down to big city someday and talk to 'em. haha. I don't want to go to the valley...

D-50, 86 and Epilepsy came in today. D-50 sounds really good I think...good recommend. I like the hall echo pretty well, but some of those detuned chorus sounds are really nice. I really like the 86...I think the volume is just fine too. Epilepsy I have to look more into but it is fun.

I played around with my geiger counter a lot today, and today is the day where I finally bonded with it fo real. Made a short clip with that+random arpeggios from the timebender. Sounds pretty ridiculous

Yea you should get a Timebender. Shit is absolutely essential to whatever you're currently trying to do.

My one pedal setup today. Experimenting with this pedal and all its craziness.

Image


I dont really have a means of taking a video other than my cell phone, and I don't have anyone to hold it while I actually play something. BUT, that's ok, with the volume knob on my guitar cranked, and in the arpegiator setting, this pedal plays itself haha! The video is also upside down because I don't know what I am doing and my phone died before showing the other settings.

I am just hammering onto two notes, the 7th and 9th fret on the d string while I hold the phone with my picking hand. Not sure if the pedal is really a keeper for me, but lots of fun none the less. It is very responsive to the guitars volume knob and if I dial it back it is less crazy (less, but still crazy ;) )

Yeah I don't exactly know what it is anymore haha. I collaborate with circuit people on builds. I just make/etch and design the enclosures and work with electronics people to make things. I know it started out with a basic DBA robot layout but I think it ended up with several modifications. He worked on them for awhile and there is also a mysterious additional daughter board he added inside haha.
