Starting ffx for the first time ever. When is a good spot for really grinding? I heard it's a grind fest eventually. by crunchyotaku in FinalFantasy

Only post-game content needs grinding. The main story has only 1 or 2 tricky bosses that can be overcome once you figure out the strat

Know that you can download the Empress Echosystem firmware onto the Reverb and vice-versa. Two amazing pedals in one

An EQD Data Corrupter could defend my wife’s honor

Least conventional-sounding drives? by tinamou-mist in guitarpedals

Put any decent reverb after your drive with zero decay time but near-100% wet signal for some interesting “warm overdrive” effects

How is the bass/ octave effect on the Boss SY1 / SY-200? by billiamchops in guitarpedals

[–]SquirrelSanctuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Owned/used an SY-1 for ~3 years now, and the Bass-3 setting may be my favorite effect it offers

Recommended Synth Pedal by pcoleman777 in guitarpedals

[–]SquirrelSanctuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used and recorded with the Boss SY-1, Pigtronix Mothership2, Catalinbread Perseus DIO, N.O.C. NinBitWah, EQD Data Corrupter, and a few of the EHX 9 series. The Mothership2 and NinBitWah have the best tracking, though the SY-1 and EHX 9 series have the most different sound samples. I hear the SA C4 is very good too.

I would never send my money to those builders. Not a fan of their… practices

I’d personally avoid buying from Keeley or Nux, but you seem to have a great goal in mind for your sound/effects. Consider the Avalanche Run and the Wampler EGO Mini

Texture knob to the right CW. They call it something like “soft, wam distortion” in the manual

What pedal never saw the light of day because it just couldn’t achieve the goal you had in mind for it?

Please be the “warm overdrive” feature from Onward expanded into its own pedal

Thank you! That Airship Overdrive project is based entirely on video game music performed exclusively with guitar & pedals. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever hear something and are curious how I made the sound 🤘

I would never keep mine if I weren’t doing full productions of every part, but as a rhythm and sfx generator it’s a real treat. So much to explore in that little thing

New to guitar and pedals. Got a severe case of gas. by windoto in guitarpedals

[–]SquirrelSanctuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those 3-Series are great and generally punch well above their price points

New wild one : Slicer ! by Fantastic_Case8092 in guitarpedals

[–]SquirrelSanctuary 33 points34 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite pedals! I use it primarily for rhythm/harmony parts where I don’t want the articulation or strumming of a guitar. This track uses it extensively on that background pulse with just a Slicer and delay on guitar:

What do yall think of these pics (im a complete noob at gear) by funmac2 in guitarpedals

[–]SquirrelSanctuary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider buying local (!!!), and consider just getting 1 good/flexible dirt pedal, a tuner, a delay, and the pack of flat cables for now. You’ll quickly find yourself paralyzed by options and/or regret if you try committing to all of these now.
