    well… you can’t really fit all this stuff from Macro synth on anything smaller than… let’s say… HOAX-sized box. BUT it sounds absolutely awesome :-) I’d probably buy this and since i’m not a fan of synthesizers (yet… no experience, but the demos doesn’t convince me) you can count that as a succes

    you know there is a Deluxe Big Muff, right? ;)

    yours DBM… dunno. I probably wouldn’t buy it. as said – you dont need presets on a distortion…I own the jekyll and hyde by Visual sound and I don’t even need to bend and set the knobs… ever. when you find some sound, it’s THAT SOUND. if I’d want another sound, I’d buy a Big Muff (oops, I did :clap: can’t wait).

    I think that the magic of muffs is that they are

    1)pretty much simple
    2)small
    3)flexible

    so I don’t know… you don’t need monster like that

    those other two things… nothing for me i shall say

    Oh, shotgun!! that’s really nice, for the first time i’ve got a feeling that this pedal isn’t useless :rawk: nice mods and nice demo (the best I’ve seen so far)

    (no offense to micro synthesizer users, i’m just “not there yet”)

    Well, I use PowerJack by Carl MArtin. It’s basically the same concept…

    here in czech republic, they’re really cheap, 6 connectors daisychain with different extenders, something like… 1,4 amps I think. For the money it’s awesome

    I have just 1 thing… don’t use them for powering up your digital delays. Since I bought it, i had Boss DD-20, Carl Mrtin Red Repeat and now i use SMMH. The Red Repeat was OK, dead quiet… it’s not really a digital… but DD-20 and SMMH had a problem – when I turned on my distortion, I could hear pile of annoying noise and popping to the rhytm of flashing LED… not cool

    So use it, butbe prepared for situations like this

    i can’t even tell you how curious I am :-)

    Porcupine tree
    Opeth
    Explosions in the sky
    Tool
    Amplifier
    Buckethead
    Karnivool
    Incubus

    Owned a Nano Dr.Q … not so impressed

    it sounded too harsh for me… or too muffled

    BUT i have to say that when i had it, i was playing pretty bad sounding guitar with pretty bad sounding humbuckers and i think I didn’t even have a valve amp. So i might try it again someday

    (i don’t think so… i’d probably save some extra money and buy the Riddle… size doesn’t matter :love: )

    and another thing (I do it sometimes) – you can simulate a rotary speaker :-) when you know how to turn the knobs, it can produce a very nice sound (even my PH-2 which is kinda hard to tame)

    well I usually use my PH-2 for… um… some more extreme phasing i should say. Incubus style :-) that’s why I bought it in a first place – I totally dig what Mike Einziger does with it

    but if i’d want something lush, i’d definitely buy a Small stone for some mellow phasing…

    for me, it adds something to the sound that sometimes can be exactly what it needs :-) simply – modulation effect

    yeah, so I just recieved an email response by mr Sel Belamir, the guitarist and singer of the band Amplifier… as i guessed, the sound on their first album is a Big Muff (some vintage model, he didn’t specified)

    so it’s probably solved

    well, i finally sold my old guitar (cort, don’t even ask… well, since I put in those DiMarzios, the distorted sound was gold… but the clean? yuck) so I’ll have some money to spend soon

    I play yamaha tele with dimarzio twang kings to laney VC30 and I’m looking for some thick fuzz sound. for distortion I use an older version od Visual Sound Jekyll/Hyde but I want something that gives me very thick muffy sound like the first album by Amplifier has (anyone heard bout them?)

    well and I’m pretty much torn between the graphic fuzz (for it’s options – EQ) and big muff (mainly because of the price :-) this way I could afford some tremolo pedal too )

    the question is… well i guess the muff is pretty straight-forward pedal. is the EQ on graphic fuzz worth the money? can i get the muff sounds with it? and when i get the muff – would i miss the EQ?

    thanks guys :-)

    Well, so does say manual for my SMMH and there was no damage when I plugged in the Carl Martin Powerjack

    besides that weird noise and rytmical tapping of tempo LED… the Powerjack isn’t really high end piece of adapter so it’s understandable… thats why I use the EHX power adapter

    I hope so… she thinks it’s cute ;)

    anyway… my board is certainly gonna grow bigger… there was supposed to be a Digitech whammy, but some english idiot sent me broken one… whatever, the new pedals are hopefully coming soon
