New Guitar Day? Obsessed with tone? 10 on the volume dial not enough? Celestion vs. Electrovoice? Cum in, feel the noize.

To piggy-back off of Lt. Bob's series, this is my latest pedal acquisition:



Legit, getting this pedal has been about a 4 year quest for me! I am quite happy with my purchase.

So, the "most usable" tone sounds a bit like a ring-mod... holy mother of fuck. Can you give us the weirdest tone?

Not me personally. I've tried it twice in the past with little success, so I commissioned an actual pedal builder to do so. Specifically, this toy.

Honestly, it's not incredibly exciting. It's mostly variations around those 4 tones, but about half of them don't respond to the pitch of the instrument: they pitch based on the knob in the lower right.

A lot of the result in the usable tones comes from the fact that I have to tune the pitch-shifting effects, so I get a lot of interesting phase cancellation from the dry and wet signals being slightly off.
