WTB: Zvex Lo Fi Loop or Junky

Wazmeister

Shot in the dark really...

Anyone got Lo Fi Loop Junky or Instant Lo Fi Junky for sale ?

Kylef

There's an instant on gumtree. Think the guy is also on here.

GavRichList

Such a great pedal. (The instant). There is one for sale on here somewhere, do a quick search mate. It was a while back.

Wazmeister

@Gavhaus - I did but couldn't find it !

i just got a loop junky this week, and its definitely not for sale! :P

the instant was designed by joel of chase bliss, before he went on to expand upon it in making the warped vinyl

for me the hissy lo-fi is the best part of the loop junky, i dont know how much of that is in the instant, and to what extent its more about tone, compression and vibrato

GavRichList

oh the hissy lo-fi is there. as are all the warbles.

@gavhaus @frazer i'd be concerned about hitting and changing the dials when i turn these Zvex's (Zvexi?) on with my size 9's.. does that happen a lot?

GavRichList

placement is key - you really need them on the front of your board to avoid errors.

they are quite low profile mxr type knobs, but yeah, i feel the same about all the zvex pedals.

i dont feel that the knobs with move too much, but do feel cautious about not wanting to crush them

that short, wide pedal style doesnt really appeal to me from a practical or an aesthetic standpoint

did you try the warped vinyl? and does it have that hiss (in lo-fi mode i guess)
from the demos i heard it sounded quite clean

DesVegas

@gavhaus yes, i guess it would be.. what were they thinking? i agree @frazer

Sorry Waz for derailing your thread, GLWTSearch

GavRichList

@Fazer - not yet...but yeah, it does sound cleaner than the Zvex.

Hey mate,

Not a problem - keeps the thread bumped !

I must admit, I am a sucker for custom stuff... this looks tempting;

the Instant is just an effect... personally I'd rather that and a TC Ditto for the best of both worlds, as apposed to just having a cool looper... but purists will tell you that the Loop junky is wheres it's at, so who knows.

and yes, nice paint job!

Wazmeister

I've got a Ditto (x2) and the amazingly brilliant EHX 360 (tried one of these ?!?!?!?! Best of the bunch), and I agree with GavHaus.

Might have a Instant on the way yet...

I plan to make up a 'Creative Inspirational Machine' board... or some such daftness...

GavRichList

APPROVED

GavRichList

of course, what you'll do with that board is play things like the Terminator theme tune if you're anything like me...BECAUSE IT SOUNDS GREAT! hahaha. EQD Bit Commander into Instant LoFi Junky into Fairfield Circuitry Meet Maude into Mr. Black Supermoon NONSENSE.
