Should I get an Electro Faustus Drone Thing?

Or should I not? Would I like it or not? Is there something else I should be looking at instead? Something cheaper? Something I should save up for?
I've been thinking about both the Drone Thing and a Dwarfcraft Somms before but never pulled the drigger. So far I've just been droning "via guitar" or the feedback of my Baby Thundaa. From the demos I've listened to I ten to like the sound of the Drone Thing, more so than other "drone devices"..
Any other suggestions?

I like mine, even more so with Simon the Magpie's mod.

Cool!
What do you like/not like about it? Do you have or have you had any other drone synths/units? What are you using it for/with?

Edit: Listened to the clip you posted in the other thread. Nice. :thumb:

There's nothing I don't like, it does what it does. I don't have any experience with any other similar pedals or synths.

So far the track on that thread is the only one I've done using it, but it won't be the last - what I want is something like an Idiotbox Mad Doctor Stutter to chop up the signal occasionally to add a little more versatility.

I definitely want more drone-generating things (whether or not the Drone Thing) in the more-moneyed tomorrowland.

When I was in the same situation I found Rucci Maximal Drone to be the most pleasant sounding one.

I appreciate your input, I just don't understand a word here, haha.
Would you care to elaborate a bit more? Why should I find a utopia synth? What is unstable? The Drone Thing? Or is the utopia unstable in a good way? What about the two oscillators phase/change? Who/What is jmt? Why shouldn't I buy from Faust (electro faustus?) Does fcknoise only eat vanilla icecream? Are you endorsed by etzy and nycpedalboutique? Sooo many questions.

Oh come on. You can do better than that :D
I already have all the guitars I need and more at the moment. And a bass. Is there a pedal you suggest I'd get instead?

How many oscillators do you want?

If you only want a couple, you might consider this?

Really curious about the JMT synths, but there's so many different ones, and it's hard for me to understand the differences.

Gotta go for the Fugue State over the Drone Thing.
