    Octave Multiplexer or POG into Big Muff…… although I’d much prefer a Blue Box into Big Muff.

    I’d probably buy a few pedals to make ambient tracks backing my acoustic music.

    Polychorus, Flanger Hoax, Q tron, Nano Muff.

    Then the Voice Box. And i already have an SMM/H and am getting a Small Stone. POG would be fun.

    That about sums it up.

    I don’t mean being revolutionary, it’s just nice to see attention to a band that is semi-unique, or has their own personality. I’m more excited that they’d be putting more attention towards music….maybe raise some standards, even if it is just a little bit =P.

    Here’s why I’m excited they’re reuniting. I’m not a big fan, I can listen to them sometimes, but it’s like listening to acdc or the ramones, you can only take so much.

    MY REASON it’s exciting: My collective group of friends are excited about this, posting stuff on facebook changing their aim messages to Blink 182 related stuff. It’s the first time people (from what I can tell) are excited about something in music (besides guitar hero….but thats not a specific band, you know?). I just hope they can sort of revive popular music to something a little less “hannah montana” and a little less “lil wayne”.

    No matter what you think of Blink…..they’re better than a lot of the bullshit music they have on mtv.

    my at-home-too-large-to-gig setup is a bit messy at the moment. having power daisychaining problems 😥

    Could you list the pedals, I’m curious on a few of them…. looks like you’re a fan of delay, haha.

    You could also probably use it effectively to manipulate synths and samplers and what not.

    Seems like a studio muff. I honestly wouldn’t see the point for it live unless you could turn two or three of the muff’s on at the same time. But i’m a fuzz whore so… you know.

    IMO of course.

    This could’ve been mentioned before, but I’d like to see a Hazarai like pedal that encompassed modulation/tremolo effects….

    Oh I thought you did by the way you phrased things when you said digital pedals aren’t for you right after talking about having trouble with Boss and Danelectro bypass.

    But digital pedals are for you, but only digital pedals with good buffers like the SMMH. :D

    And also I suspect you’re the kind of guy that could totally rock out on a digital pitch shifter of some sort.

    Haha I used to have a boss ps-5 and used it like jack white uses his whammy. However I’ve concluded for now that octave up isn’t for me right now since I play in two/three piece bands. However my microsynth’s octave down is quite useful. :thumb:

    That’s my point my pedals are on all the time, so if a buffered pedal makes my fuzz sound nasally and compressed, I’m taking it out of my chain.

    are you talking about output impedance? that’s usually what makes fuzzes sound bad…a lot of the vintage types like to see a hi-impedance guitar signal, the double muff is like that.

    I really have no clue. Whenever I’ve had a boss pedal or once i had a dano tuna melt and a milkshake, no matter where it was in my chain it totally changed my fuzzes. I don’t use my big muff too much due to its loose wiring. All of my fuzzes use Silicon transistors and they’re no more than five years old. It’s just way easier to use true bypassed effects so I don’t have to worry about screwing up my sound and having to readjust everything just so I can have a chorus effect I’ll only use for one or two songs….. Obviously it’s rather a specific problem to the way I configure my guitar’s sound, so I’m not damning digital effects, they just aren’t for me. Buffered ehx pedals don’t seem to bother my signal at all….so good news there.

    As far as my memory man:
    The SMMH doesn’t suck anything in my experience just like everyone else says, great pedal, never letting it go, I was just curious. The number oen reason I have it is because it can do flanger/chorus sounds as well so if I need a trippy effect I can just dial it in rather than buying another effect.

    While we’re on the topic, are digital ehx effects like my good ole SMMH true bypass? When i hear digital, I think buffered, and that totally fucks with my fuzzes. That’s why I never use boss pedals.

    I think as far as ods/distortions/fuzzes, they should stay analogue. But I’ve played with the #1 echo and micro pog and it sounded just fine. The only thing is digital isn’t as spontaneous, it’s very precise and exact usually. Thats what charms me with analogue is there’s always that small (tiny) factor it could do something amazing at the right time. Example: Blue Box.

    I think prefer buffered pedals. I wish all pedals had high quality signal buffers/regulators on the in’s and outs, I believe you’d get far less problems with volume drop, fuzz pedal incompatabilities, pedals not working very well with different pickups, switch popping etc……I don’t know how much that would add to the price of a pedal though. True Bypass is nonsense, the only time you’d have a TB signal is when all your pedals are turned off….and how often does that happen? 😆

    That’s my point my pedals are on all the time, so if a buffered pedal makes my fuzz sound nasally and compressed, I’m taking it out of my chain. I don’t have any volume loss problems. I’m not saying my fuzzes are incompatible with each other, its just if i have a buffered pedal in my chain the rest of my pedals begin to sound like shit.

    I’m sure buffered pedals work great in some cases, but for me they don’t. No one gave me a clear answer on my smmh question, I assume its buffered? It sounds fine, I’m just curious for knowledge’s sake.
