ILF 2014 Secret Fucking SATAN Assignments SENT!!!!!

[D.o.S.]

Apologies for the terrible photography. Schlatte is fucking rad. The note was great too -- I realized like halfway through signing up for the SS that I don't post about gear, like, at all.

(so now my only question is... what's a Bass Bacon? Or, rather, that's your question, because I know what it is. Oh yes. I know what it is.)

About fucking time you get a power supply!!!!!! Nice haul dude!!!

[D.o.S.]

Also: That is, actually, not the money shot.

So, in addition to all that radness, Schlatte also included two pedals, cleverly hidden inside the Reisewasserkocher box.

I'm literally at a loss for words right now, but luckily, Lucas sent a note, so I'll copy up the pertinent bits here:

First off, the D.o.S. Fuzz:
A modified Mix between a black russian and a Civil War, fitted with a baxandall tonestack and special clipping stages. The controls should be pretty obvious, so no explanation needed there I think. I tweaked it to my liking, so I hope you'll enjoy it, too. Is it loud? Yes. Does it djent? Maybe. Is it the best fuzz for doom? I don't know

then I was pretty content with my gift choices, but something bugged me. You got a Muff, it's a special kind of Muff, but still - almost everybody has one. You got a little booster. It's also a pretty special little booster but other people have one too.

So here the third gift idea comes into place: a pedal, designed from the ground up: the Denormalizer. It's a boost/EQ/Dirt pedal, originally designed to boost and clip the hell out of everything after it. I have to be brutally honest with you, it didn't come out as I would like... to make up for that mistake, I build you the Noise Ensemble [editor's note: BUT SERIOUSLY DUDE ] with the Satanic Snowman Graphics.

The Denormalizer: It's an OpAmp based effect with an internal charge pump for +/-9V Operation.
Controls: Gain - you know. Gain
Diods -- Silicon, Germanium, LED, Zener, Schottky, All of them, off
Tone- controls the gain between the active bass + active treble stages (because, duh, it has one of each)
Cancel - with this you can control the level of a shifted phase that is mixed to the output signal. But it is not shifted 180* (inverted) like in most pedals, it is shifted about 30-60 percent depending on your tone knob settings... 'so you're basically mixing two distorted waveforms with a shitton of harmonics together.

Fuck. I'm ashamed of my gifts now

We will need demos of all of those pedals!

[Eivind August]

Fuck me, you got an entire little board?

[multi_s]

man, the graphic on the denormaliser has made my day.

[weed_killer]

Fuck. I'm ashamed of my gifts now

+1.

[D.o.S.]

Still beyond stoked, also feeling momentary lapses of inadequacy. But for real, I got just as much of a kick out of the Krampus Chocolates.

[odontophobia]

DUDE!

Fucking awesome posts!

D.o.S. you made out like a killer bandit.

And SCHLATTE. DUDE.
Those are fucking rad ass. That Denormalizer sounds like a trip.

[goroth]

Holy shit balls D.o.S. and Schlatte!

Do want to hear that denormalizer. It sounds rad!

[Schlatte]

glad you dig it!

Well, schlatte wins. (/D.o.S wins for getting that stuff) That is an AMAZING set of gifts.


If that's the same booster he gave me last year it's fucking rad. With the gain cranked it's one of my favourite fuzzes, plus hilariously loud.
