Great spot thanks. I'm not at all familiar with the slicer pedal, but it does sound pretty cool! 

 

In what ways does it differ from an arpeggiator pedal?

 

its a tremolo basically over the notes you"d get from something like an arpeffiator 

 

and its super hard chop square wave if you want it to be

It's more of a tremolo, that adds various harmonies to your sound. It's similar to an arpeggiator, but due to the tremolo depth (if set deep), it cuts your core tone up into strange choppy textures. It's a thing you need to hear in detail to explain.

Here is an old track, from the band that used the massive board I shared earlier. This track uses the old 2-pedal slicer (in the intro and again later, but more subtle). I share this because it uses the same filter-y octave tone as the one in the video, which is why I think it's a slicer. The depth on this one is low, so the bass tone underneath isn't being fully chopped up, but you can hear the similarities.

The Clusterflux is the one I miss the most. That whole ‘time slow down whale noise’ it can do with some knob twiddling (or expression), is utterly next level. Best Chorus I ever used by far.

every time ppl start talking about moogerfoogers it makes me want to start collecting pedals - they are just cool. 
I have the past-fx 101 clone - and am tempted by a SA Artefakt that can do most of the functionality of most of them.. maybe not them all together

The Artefakt seems uber cool. I've been considering one myself.

NOTHING gets the tone of the foogers though... but they're also massive, colour your tone even when bypassed, have awkward power needs, cost a fortune, have temperamental foot switches and and and a million other downsides. But they are cool

My homemade pedal board with built-in power supply. The perspective is a bit skewed as all the pedals are level with or inside the edges of the pedal board. For anyone that knows the mic mechanic, I don't use those settings. Just for info, the power is from two 550mA discrete switch mode power supplies. The IEC input is on the right-hand side. The two left-hand power sockets to the Zoom and the Thomann wireless system are connected to one power supply, and right-hand sockets supply the Mic Mechanic with one socket spare. 

 

 

I designed it that ways as on the usual cheap power supplies, there is noise induced from the Mic Mechanic

  to the Zoom.

I stupidly made the board before measuring my pedals. I might make this my  "small board" and make another to make the layout easier.  I have some more PCBs for the power supply, so keep your eyes peeled in a month year or two.

Just because… 😆

 

Need to tidy up the wiring but just wanted to be sure it all sounded good. My standard set up remains much the same. I tap the sound from the Simone DI as below:
TU3>4OTF>BSComp>Simone DI>CabM+
all goes to FOH/desk

 

The full board goes to the amp via Simone 1/4” out:

TU3>4OTF>BSComp>Simone1/4”>MB Comp>P&P>Funk> Thumpinator >amp

 

4OTF just as an always on low gain thing taking advantage of the filters. The MB is just acting as a valve stage and not doing any compression worth writing home about (I mean it can but not on this gig iteration). Getting a bit more juice from the 4OTF. P&P doubles as either drive or fuzz depending on the tune and set low gain gets a nice bump from the 4OTF too. Nice to have different drives available to layer. 
 

Funkulator just does its thing and adds a nice scoop to the drive sound for added sculpting.

Great board that @krispn - right up my street 🤩
