    As you can tell by the title, this thread is going to be about drone doom. Namely, how one would go about achieving that “Lawnmower through seaweed” tone. Which pedals/amps/mods would the EHX community suggest?

    Thanks

    😆 I actually didn’t get that from the title; I clicked on the thread out of curiosity to see what it was about.

    Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) I have no idea what ‘drone doom’ is, so I’m afraid I can’t help.

    I tought this thread was about synth sub octave tones 😆

    There are some guys around here that like doom/drone, like me. Main difference is that I don’t know how to achieve that sound, but someone will appear to enlighten us

    I get close with a delay pedal set as high as it can go, but I also use quite a bit of distortion. My bassy amp settings and low tunings have also helped, but I can’t get the right fuzz.

    hey chromanaut check this…

    tune low…(C or B or A is always good)
    turn up the monster tube amp (something that breaks up nicely… obviously SUNN amps are good, but also check a Fender Blackface Bassman)

    let the feedback flow freely through-out your pick ups and cabinet(-s are preferable always, the more the merrier)

    i also like to use loads of reverb on what i am doing and it sounds really good… fuzzes and OD are a must, also try a POG or Octave Multiplexer, to get that extra octave growl

    extra tip: use a very light chorus before everything else, and compress NOTHING!

    you can listen to the stuff i just said over here: http://www.myspace.com/dronesofviridiana for the full on drone experience and http://www.myspace.com/beggingshaman for something with a bass and drums…

    hope i hepled… for more info you can just pm me i have tons of info on what you are lookin for

    cheers
