It will result in a permanent ban from the subreddit, no questions asked. Shouldn’t really have to do anything as a mod of a pedals sub but here we are.

AI pedals? there are a few, the Quilter Elevate is one. It uses plain English descriptions to generate presets across its effects chain. There’s also the Polyend Endless pedal, which uses AI to generate new effects from prompts. And then, there’s something from Chaos Audio, the Stratus, which includes an AI effects builder. So, you can describe the kind of effect you want and it builds a custom signal chain. Most of what’s out there now though is actually more machine learning modeling, like Neural DSP Quad Cortex or IK Multimedia Tonex, which are excellent, but they’re modeling existing gear more than improvising with you in real time. I think where this gets interesting is, let’s say, pedals that can recognize your playing dynamics, like if you switch from rhythm to lead, and it adapts the gain or delay subtly around that. Or, even an analog pedal with digital brain adjusting its bias or filtering in response to your style. So, right now it’s mostly about helping design sounds. But I think the next wave could be pedals that actually collaborate with you.

Hi everybody!

After years of electronique music production, i d like to join my Stratocaster into a new rock/ electronique project.

Cause of these long times, i look for advices for pedals and gears, in particular the distortion and delays.

The distortion pedals ( could be two), must have big Energy and fuzzy ( but manageable).

Delay Is also important, must be warm and with cool trippy patterns( like reverse, grainy..) and i dont know if It s possibile to control the dry/wet parameter, could be cool.

My genre Is like a mix of dub/ Stoner / post rock.

Thank you

I am not dissing Chase Bliss here. They have carved their own niche. From what I've seen, the pedals are very well made too. All that bloopy, glitchy stuff is fun, but i just don't understand how I can use them in a songwriting / musical way. What am I missing or doing wrong?

Sorry, poorly titled .

The DOD rubberneck has an effect loop for the trails. What are some effects you’re loving when applied to your delay trails?

MXR Phase 90 seems like a good start.

For a project of mine I wanted know how to combine two pedals into one enclosure, and then have a switch to change between which effect is active and influenced by the potentiometers when the pedal is on. I know the JHS packrat does something similar but I believe that pedal changes out individual resistors where as I want to change which entire circuit is powered and connected to a universal set of potentio​meters. I would ideally like everything to be analog because I have a very limited understanding of microcontrollers. Thanks.

I'm looking to buy a multi effects pedal for my clarinet pickup (quite unusual). I'm going to use it for live gigs like weddings.

Effects that I need it most for is EQ, Octaver, reverb/delay.

I know a clarinetist that plays with the GT 001 and his sound is quite good, however the availability for the gt 001 is pretty low and I also believe that technology has advanced since its release.

The other choice (that is vfm/cheap) is the zoom a1 four. I have recently found out about this pedal, it's made specifically for acoustic instruments (like sax, clarinet, acoustic guitar) and has some pre installed presets in it but I don't really care for the pre-available presets.

Google says that the octaver quality (which is one of the most important things that I need) is sometimes laggy, obviously because of the low price. It's a very cheap choice to start out maybe.

The third choice is the BOSS GX-1, a relatively new pedal, very compact and at a very good price. It has a wide list of effects and most importantly it is a boss pedal and has the boss pedal library. Google also says that it contains the octaver oc-2 effect which is very widely used and loved for clarinetists that use octaver.

What should I buy? Which is going to offer the best audio and effect quality for its price?

I've heard that this pedal is perfect for 90s grunge and alt rock/metal, but also for 90s numetal too. Someone could tell me the settings on this pedal to get a similar Korn's Debut tone?
