The Whatever Thread .. For Gear!!

Somehow I always overlook the "i" in Alesis' Recital keyboard.

Did Muffwiggler tell people to make a new password, when they changed the name to Modwiggler? I can't log in. I asked for a new password but I haven't gotten an automated reply yet. It's been a minute already.

My friend has an Oberheim OB-XA synth he wants to repair. Does anybody know of a good synth repair person in the Chicago area? Anyplace else to research this besides Modwiggler?

Rock n Roll Vintage seems to have a lot of repaired/refreshed synths in their listings on Reverb - either an in-house person or they know a tech. Might be worth a contact there.

Thanks!

Found my RM-1N that's been missing since I moved and when I haven't used it for a while and plug it in I'm shocked again at how good it is.

It's a good pedal! Been considering selling mine for ages but then every now and then i turn it on and it just sounds great

From the latest Mattoverse email dispatch I just learned there's an Emily Hopkins Air Trash demo:

[MechaGodzilla]

do i want a minitaur? for drones and squelches and such? or an ms20 mini? does anyone need anything? much to ponder.

First world problems ...

MS-20 mini is awesome, though!

Is there anyone who has/has played the latest revision of the EAE Halberd?
i'm curious about it and would love to hear some first hand impressions. I'd like to know how much of the original TOAN is preserved or how dramatically it changes it: I went through some demos but haven't found one that shows how it behaves stacked after other pedals except the one from just Megan.
The Longsword is one of the pedals i used the most during 2021, but its distortion qualities even out a lot in the upper range, and while I know the topology of the Halberd is different from it, we're always talking about transistor gain stages, though it seems to be more dynamic-responsive, especially in the top end.

I wanna buy an amp which would work well alongside my Orange in a biamp rig. Can anyone suggest something? There's so many options my head is spinning. Needs to be a head, not a combo. Something nice n loud which loves pedals. Preferably one that isn't hard to find on the used market either. Price not a huge issue but I can't pay much over 1k really.

I'd also be interested to know. The clang mode sounds cool, and I wonder what it sounds like compared to a Surveyor for that kind tone.

Do you need something clean-ish to complete the usually crunchy orange sound or are you looking for something along the lines of the amp you already have?

[Moustache_Bash]

You reckon we're going to get a fuzz pedal?

[KingNed]

Sorry yeah should have clarified, I get my distortion from pedals so it would be something that runs clean. Obviously the Orange imparts its sound upon whatever I run into it, and it runs through a 1x15 so does all the beefiness in my sound, so I need another pedal platform amp to complement it.
