  1. Couldn't help but notice there are quite a lot of audible clicks and pops when enabling/disabling effects on the playground, guessing thats a quirk of running in the browser?
  2. Does the online demo gui allow for uploading clips to loop? Being able to use actual clean recordings of your bass etc to play with would be a game changer.
  3. Just wondering if anyone is using the Dwarf alongside other analog pedals? I have some pedals, 2x preamps and 2x drives that I have no intention of removing. Stuff like the GT1000core and Stomp definitely have an advantage over this in the sense that they have 2 fx loops which give you way more options for wiring them up. Would be curious to see how people have wired it up.
  4. Haha it's an acquired taste, I love them though.
  5. I've had this pedal for a while now and always intended to do a quick video like this. It's not annotated, no talking, no plan and it's far from scientific but it's a pretty good showcase for how I like to use it. I'm not sure how well it'll be picked up in this video but the Model FeT adds a smoothness to high gain drives that just sounds incredible, it pairs particularly well with the EAE Longsword (featured near the end). I think it took me a while to really get my head around this pedal, capitalising on the brite and normal channels to get just the right amount of breakup and thickness. Also coming from mostly GK heads the FMV style tonestack felt super unintuitive (and still does) but I've started getting more of a feel for what works, I just need to really ignore where I think the bass, mid and treble should be and go completely off what I'm hearing. I really can't get enough of Electronic Audio Experiments gear, everything they make is incredidbly high quality.

  6. Did a very quick demo of the Capo, running through the controls and showing how it reacts to drives etc. No annotations or talking just me haphazardly twiddling dials and hoping for the best.
  7. After much deliberation I decided the Mastro Valvola OFF1 just wasn't for me. So back to drawing board, this gap isn't going to fill itself! Thinking about grabbing an EAE Halberd to pair with the Longsword and replace the OFF1 at which point i think it's safe to say I've got dirt covered. I have been blown away by everything EAE and aside from the Capo they're the only pedals which have lived up to my internal hype. Considering grabbing another GT1000core when I can afford it to introduce some additional effects and experimentation. It would be really handy for recording guitar too.
  8. I borrowed one off someone at work a while back, it sat on a shelf until a few days before he asked for it back when I actually tried it. It's a prettier hideous design but sounded fantastic. Been looking out for a decent price on one ever since to have more of a play.
  9. Its a beast! Have you tried the Pharaoh or any of the Black Arts Toneworks stuff?
  10. I'm not sure what range is effected by the treble control but it's much higher band than most preamps I've used. I only touch it when I'm putting guitar through.
  11. Schecter J4 and P4 Exotic with DR hi beams mostly. Music wise it's mostly the band stuff which is noisy rock, kinda like Quicksand/Rival Schools I guess. Lots of Tool and other heavier stuff but also lots of folky stuff which calls for a much cleaner rounder tone. I'd say its a fairly broad spectrum tonally and I never have much trouble dialing it in. I even use the Capo for some light tone shaping on guitar which works great too. Probably gonna pop flats on my p4 for a little extra variety in future.
  12. It's been discussed already but its very easy to configure the Evertune to respond to any string bends and vibrato.
  13. It really is fantastic, I don't think you'll regret it!
  14. Hahahaha didn't even notice, copied you on the off1 and now the avatar. You're a trailblazer of monochromatic pedalboards and profile pictures.
  15. Haha aye will slide into DMs for future Capo fanboy posts 😂
  16. Aye! It felt like a gamble ordering it given the price tag and how many alternatives are out there but paid off massively. It adds a lot of life to the sound, even with the B side at lower gain. Sounds absolutely incredible going into an all valve head but equally nice to know you can go direct to FOH and it'll cut through fine.
  17. Interested to know how you get on @Woodinblack I was thinking of trying to pick up another Boss GT core but the mod looks like a really cool option. The main thing that puts me off it is the single FX loop, i have a few other drives and preamps I'd like to incorporate and FX loops make it way easier.
  18. As someone who plays quite aggressively with a pick i can see the attraction. The initial attack on the string is always sharp, I usually account for this with tuning but that means any sustained notes will be slightly flat. From what I've read it sounds like you can set it up almost like a dead zone so only deliberately bent notes affect the pitch. Sure there would be a little learning curve but pretty sure you could set it up to be very subtle.
  19. Progress is slooooooow but very close now. Ended up using the Fiebings Leather dye and came out great although it's taken some knocks before being finished.
  20. Awesome! Will check it out 🙌 Not that I can afford to add anything new to my board for the foreseeable 😬
  21. Nice! I've never really found a fuzz I liked until the OFF1, only found a small demo of this but sounded great.
  22. All my broken cables are instrument, xlr and power cables that aren't fixed to a pedalboard. My EBS patch cables and Cioks power cables are by far the most reliable part of my board. I think even if I had a larger HX effects or similar I'd still want it mounted on a board like the Rockboards so everything important could be neatly wired and secured. Then again I couldn't imagine ever putting a board together that didn't include the Jad Freer Capo, even if I had a multi for everything else.
  23. I was thinking probably Darkglass are the other big player in multifx, i bet there are a lot of ADAM and Proton users etc.
  24. Bargin! If I hadn't just grabbed the WB-100 I'd have snapped that up, amazing amps.
  25. The LFSys sounds awesome although I'd need 2 and that's definitely out of budget! 2nd hand barefaced is much more in line with what I can justify.
