Need to split this signal chain into two, get that thick marshall distortion on one side and a nice clear AC30 sound on the other
>shoegaze so expensive bruw

Though whenever I record I just use a Zoom G2.1u, that shit sounds great if you know what you're doing and know how to mix/master properly.

Some shitty tuner for 30 euros
Digitech Whammy V

EHX Micro-Synth

Guys, be aware that the Micro-Synth has an severe internal noise gate, that is never referenced in any reviews or demos. It is such a boner kill

If you're really set on getting a granular based effects pedal, it won't get much cheaper, though that's still pretty hefty for the limited amount of things you can do with it. I'd recommend getting a whammy and a DD-7 instead (for example), you'll be able to do the same things, but be much more flexible in terms of extending the pedal board later on and adding in more effects (and if you're into that kind of advanced tomfoolery, you'll likely want to expand soon enough).

My phone camera is broken, but here's what I have right now. Been thinking about getting another fuzz to put after the descent so I can get that wall of noise shoegaze tone.
>>60334955
How's that Pharoah, man? Been looking at some black arts toneworks stuff and all of their designs are awesome.
>>
>>60334250
i don't get the flint.
it seems just impractical! i heard it's supposed to emulate the conditions of early guitarists who could only use the trem and reverb their amps offered but it's just too pricey to be practical compared with standalone reverb or tremolo pedals.

>how is that reverb? is it excessive? because thats exactly what im looking for.
It's a TC Electronic T2, It has a really long decay time, when I started out with it I was trying to make shoegazy stuff but then realized that the decay was so long that I could use it to go into ambient guitar stuff.
>>
what i hate about most pedal demo videos is that no matter what the pedal is supposed to be for, it's just some guy shredding blues riffs on it. like i saw a video of a guy showing off a pedal called "shoegazer" and he was playing fucking blues riffs on it.
>>
>>60334250
Is that Strymon Flint any good/worth the price? I heard Guthrie Govan say it was his favorite pedal ever but the thing is so fucking expensive.

Those are good enough. I used one for a while. I think it's the cheapest pedal with a reverse mode.

Is the Holy Grail Nano by EHX any good?
>>
>>60336803
I don't have one of those.
>>
>>60336773
yeah, that feature caught my eye but i'm not sure that i'll end up using it.
otherwise it's still a very solid and versatile reverb for the price, and hardwires are built like a rock so i don't mind going used

>>60336803
just google a demo (make sure it's properly recorded)
imo they're good but they have very few settings

how much is your budget?
>>
>>60331925
I bought an Aquapuss bout 5 years ago and still love it. But only recently did I learn about the Supa-puss... and now I sad.
>>
>>60336803
I have one. The sound is fantastic, very rich. But the lack of control over the reverb is borderline infuriating. If you just want a little splash of reverb (say your amp doesn't have a good reverb built in) then it's perfect, but if you want to create lush atmospheric reverbs, look elsewhere (Strymon Bluesky is my jam)

Does anyone have any recs for a good compression pedal?

Goes from smooth overdrive to wall of fuzzstortion. I should mention it's not a straight fuzz, it's got some grind.

So, I'm new to music production and everything, but my friend owns a guitar and we've been experimenting with that.

What are the best pedals/pedal effect types for making a psychedelic effect with a guitar? I know reverb is a must, but is there anything else?
>>
Bump. I don't play guitar but I love looking at pictures of gear desu senpai
>>
how do i get a raw lofi feedback effect like White Light/White Heat?
>>
>>60336803
They're pretty good IMO, I mostly use the Hall setting, but the other 2 offer unique sounds as well

I agree with >>60337220 on the control factor, but I use mine through a synth so It's a bit of a different situation

Modulation pedals. Phasers and flanger especially.
>>60338237
Debating getting either this or a POG. How do the octaves sound?
>>60342514
I'm >>60335804 , so I have the Descent which has a reverse setting, and I have to say that reverb is not that important in the Kevin Shields sound. What I usually do is set up a delay with a short time that goes into a hall reverb or a reverse that blends your strums together to give you that continuous wall of sound thing, and then put that into a big muff and you'll have something. If your guitar has a trem then use it
>>
I use
Boss dm 2
Malekko b:assmaster
Crowther hotcake
Boss hf 2 flanger

Four pedals already seems a bit crazy. I don't know how people can effectively use more.
>>
>>60331925
Boss OC-2 Octave is the shit
DD-3 delay is pretty much the only other thing I use desu. Want to get a good wah pedal tho.
>>
>>60342665
so is that big muff after the verb?
>>
>>60335868
>>60336210
Yes its well worth it. Basically you cant get a reverb or trem as good for $150 so the $300 is justified. I got it for my vox because it doesnt have any effects and coming from a fender I was used to having them on hand. Both effects are very versatile too; the trem can basically sound like a vibe and the reverb can go from great spring to crazy oscillating 80s shit. Overall if I lost my pedalboard itd be the first thing I buy

do it. awesome pedal and make sure to get an expression pedal to make it even more versatile.

>>60337263
If you think $100 is pricey, then that's a bad sign cuz that's reasonable for a decent effect

+octave multiplexer

I run a morpheus capo set to an octave up into the OM with the sub off and the high and blend all the way. It's a fucking amazing monophonic, grinding, glitchy tone
