wow, that was sick.
that rainger delay in particular is fucking adorable and tiny and awesome and jesus fucking christ WANT.

Nice! Thanks, Knobs.

seriously.

all the knobs from namm footage is gonna be amazing.

Ugh that Knobs... GAS pains.

For me it's the Rainger delay (despite not being a fan of the looks of their stuff—not a dig, just some people's thing, not mine) and the Geiger Pro.

This could've been posted already in previous pages, but just in case:

That RaingerFX echo is awesome, particularly with Igor. I'm seeing that in my future.

Also, not to be a total dick but does anyone else think that Fuzzrocious delay sounds like hot garbage?

I had been meaning to add some pics of the newest art for the Geiger Pro, but hadn't gotten to it. I bought a Geiger Counter around 2010, and it was one of the most frustrating processors I've ever owned. I was running synths and electric pianos through it. If you played the middle C you'd get one texture/sound. If you played the neighboring D you'd get a completely different character and decay. In some contexts that might be cool, but it was impossible to ever recall sounds. I would write down clock face settings (12:01, 3:05, 9:00, 6:00) and then when I went back to these positions, it had lost all of its magic. The sharp, grizzled attack with the sputtery decay was gone. It would just be something brisk and disenchantingly dull. This was repeated with several instruments and the results were always the same. It was too temperamental, too unpredictable, and too inconsistent to justify keeping it, even though some of the sounds were quite exotic---brutally melancholic, sorrowful industrial walls of distortion. But what could I do with something, where I lost the magic by moving a pot from 12:05 to 12:07 or by striking a D instead of a C?

Personally I'm still really skeptical of this. When it debuted at NAMM 2012 they were telling players that as-is with MIDI and storable presets it was going to be a nightmare to get it under $900. So I suspected that if it ever actually got off the ground, it'd be 3-5 years later and come with a hefty $450-550 price tag. So have they gotten it to something more manageable and more consistent? When you start talking about $450-550, I'd personally just recommend that someone buy a used Sherman Filterbank 2. The FB2 is the greatest wall of sound distortion I've ever used in my life. It has teeth like nothing else. It's just a powerhouse of gritty, robust distorted bliss.

It sounded like the score for a Scandinavian student film. If you were making a low-budget artsy film about depressed youths struggling with mental illness, set against a background of wintery desolation, then people would forgive, if not appreciate all those extra artifacts. It certainly has its niche, but an engineer would hate you if you asked to record with that. With all the people complaining about the lo-fi character and noise of the Wizard, it would seem this pedal would have a lot of detractors as well.

Hey. Keep us Scandinavians out of this. That pedal sounds horrible.

Are we watching the same video? This is the delay I've been waiting for

I feel like the fuzzrocious pedal was created for the ILF crowd. I mean, the footswitch thing is cool IMHO, but the lack of other knobs/cool things and the very noticeable noise is admittedly a deal breaker. Too bad actually

I don't know who they were appealing to with that pedal. Seems like it's gonna be a total flop. It's a PT2399 delays with no time pot, no modulation, and no runaway feedback switch. It's a basic chip delay with none of the features that make me like the 2399, and it's gonna be $200. What a joke.
