    I'll be clear; presented with the same set of pedals (I own some of them anyway) I would not be making the same set of loops as Juan, but at least it's not A N Other blues riff. I wouldn't choose to listen to either, but I'd rather listen to / watch this...and a lot of his pedal demo videos are a good watch.
    Yes. He has recorded an absolute shitter here though.

    I was hoping to be able to say the TWA Great Divide 2.0 but unfortunately the used one I purchased never showed up! The seller has refunded me as strangely it got returned to him in the US as it got rejected from customs. He'd lost the tracking code apparently so I couldn't check online if this was correct (I did point out it should be on the label on the parcel that he now has in his possession though).

    Oh well back to the search for another Great Divide I guess!

    So back to the thread.....
    I'd probably say one of the most fun pedals I have is the Walrus Audio Janus. The joystick controls open up many evenings of tinkering for endless enjoyment and weirdness.

    First post! Yes!

     

    I don't own this pedal, but I have used a Boss PS-3 in the past and some of the sounds it created made me weep with tears of joy. Anyone know of any other pedals just like this? They get snapped up quite quickly on eBay.

     

    I would also love to get my hands on the Rainbow Machine just for dicking around.

    Don't know about creative but the Fuzz Factory can be a lot of fun.

    I should avoid these threads as now I want a TWA Great Divide 2.0 too!

    If you use the @Lew bare foot approach at home then the joystick twiddling can be done with your toes! I tend to put stuff down in a loop then fiddle by hand with the settings to get some cool sounds. Wouldn't fancy using it live as the controls would be pretty easily knocked by my feet no doubt while accessing other pedals, but for home fun it is incredible!

    thats a great board for blues tones
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    @Wazmeister Warren! Sometimes I wonder about you and your tastes! You like the weird noise boxes but dont like weird noise textures and sound on sound!

    I saw the Juan Coffee and Riffs earlier and thought it was ace.

    For me it's the Fairfield Maude with an expression pedal. Love that pedal so much. On another day it could easily be the Walrus Descent.


    Lew, I LOVE sound on sound and weird pedals... however, I am a little bit old fashioned in that I occasionally like the old bit of melody and tune to issue forth from them thar pedals...

    Here is MY latest fix for the weird and wonderful;

    Edit. This place should have a Best Place to Torture Me section

    I do like the look of these ones. They looks like a pair that some one in the movie Warriors might wear.
