Sonic Mayhem on a budget? Recommendations?


Recommended Posts

Posted

The guitarist and I would like a pedal that does bleeps, bloops, white noise, whatever. Doesn't matter really as long as it sounds a bit dissonant/oddball.
Just for a couple of songs we have in mind.
Don't want to spen too much either.

you have to have pedals that go in the feedback loop surely? But yeh a feedback loop with a distortion pedal in will make some weird noises for you. If you could afford to get a multi effects, like one of the plastic Zoom units, and then put that in a feedback loop, you'd have loads of fun.

Analog delays will make an oscillating tone which can be useful.

I got one of these:

I got the Napalm feedback looper (Snowball) - it's fun. If you get a distortiony thing and a modulation thing in the loop it does a whole lot of weirdness.

Look at Devi Ever stuff too. She makes some that self-oscillate which brings the nasty!

they're dead easy to make if you're on a budget

I'm too hamfisted with a soldering iron. If someone wants to make me one for a small gratuity though........

Zvex fuzz factory has many levels of craziness.

If you can solder you can also build one cheaply:

I've done it. Well worth it, especially if you're looking for mad sounds.

My options for a single pedal with loads of noise crazyness...

WMD Geiger Counter Civillian Issue
Subdecay Noisebox
Devi Ever Soda Meiser

Each of the above go for about £70-£80 2nd hand and each do some crazyness!

Cheaper than that - listen to the folks above!

They missed a trick not installing the option for expression pedals on that.
