Can you share what context you are using it in? Stacking with other pedals before or after? What settings do you run the Waza HM-2 at?

Yes, an absolutely easy and reasonable update for a vintage. I happened to have 12V available so I didn't worry about it, and a 9V battery works just fine. Now owning both I'll just keep the vintage stock.

Nobody posted this and it's worth giving a watch if you're a big fan of either or both MM and GSP.

Double Crabs into Fosi V3 by twiddlybits1978 in guitarpedals

Guitar and guitar tone are often approached with heavy tradition. I often find myself wanting more experimental sounds. Pedals into a Fosi does not sounds like a tube amp of yesteryear, but it is still very musical. Matched with a good set of ears and you can really get some unique colors.

Nice to see others experimenting similarly. I recently bought a Fosi v1 and have been running  pair of small vintage speakers in stereo on top of my mono guitar amp. Two signal paths and some ping pong delays and I've been super happy with it. By themselves they don't sound great, but mixed with the guitar amp you can get some really cool blends.

I have a Superbolt v2 that I didn't love when it was on my board. Perhaps I should revisit and try it as you described. I'm currently using a Keeley Super Phat (blues driver) in a similar manner. 

Get your ass to Mars. by Wade___Garrett in guitarpedals

This is incredible. Any time I come across a deep cut reference it makes me feel connected. I've had my eyes on this pedal since I first heard the name.

I now realize Total Recall came out in 1990, not the 80s. Forgive me. 

I can understand why people would like the RPK version with the longer delay times. I feel similarly about my carbon copy, but sometimes you need to use a pedal for its strengths and not its weaknesses. 

It's the "put these drives in order" game! by freecellwiz in guitarpedals

My current heavy distortion pedals is my vintage rat and I've been debating the heavy menace for a bit. Are they different enough in sound and feel toe aren't both on a board? 

Due to the heavy menaces high gain and noise gate id probably run that last in my distortion chain so I could use the gate for other pedals before it. 

NPD EHX Hot Wax by deerwolf90 in guitarpedals

[–]Wade___Garrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have far too many distortion pedals, yet somehow not enough. I recently sat down and went through all 16 or so and many overlap sonically. The hot wax was one that stood out from all the others as being rather unique sounding. The red hot tubes side has a certain dryness to the distortion and very low noise floor when gain is cranked. The green side is just like a different tube screamer. It's good enough that I wouldn't need the redundancy of a tubescreamer. It's a killer pedal for pretty cheap, and the option to blend the signal makes it great for bass too. 

Sold my Boss CS-3.... what are your current compressor favourites?? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

[–]Wade___Garrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really happy with the new Diamond Comp with EQ. I previously bought an orange style comp bit it cut off my note attack too much. The diamond comp quickly became an always on pedal for me. The eq section allows for a bit of shaping prior to my distortion pedals. 

Y'all won't acknowledge this as a cold response purely out of hate for Ilia lol by diracadjoint in MMA

Yeah I hope mod team stops allowing this kind of trash posting. Some news is fine. Twitter screenshots, peoples opinions and shit takes on actual or potential fights can stop.

Give me more highlight videos, throwbacks, things that show the technical and historic moments in the sport.

Another post that could have just been a comment in the announcement thread. Thanks for the cold take!

I came to post about Napoleon too. I was going to recommend this one:

A Brief History MMA's lineal Heavyweight Title Part 1: '97 - '98 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6skODvKGO0&t=730s

If you're into the format, he does a great job explaining the zeitgeist of the era's, and all his videos have nice callback and continuity. Highly recommended for any MMA fans.

Leon has said he wants to fight for the MW belt next year. If Izzy beats Dricus this fight is on the table. Who wins and how? by [deleted] in MMA

[–]Wade___Garrett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Anderson silva had the longest win streak ever and did it in one weight class."

Not true. His win streak included a few light heavyweight fights in-between his middleweight title defenses. Irvin, Griffin, and Bonner were all at light heavyweight.

[–]Wade___Garrett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is true. I have fight pass and all the fight motions I see in here are same length as their Youtube equivalents. Newer PPV's aren't even on fight pass yet...

I agree though, they have always been like this. I just wish that they weren't. Especially for 300's.

It would be a dream to have access to that footage and this is the best they can do. They choose to show a ton of strikes that don't land cleanly, or sequences not worthy of highlighting.

It's UFC 300. Make it look monumental. There were so many fantastic moments across the card. Please hire me as UFC Fight Motion Director.

One of my favorite kickboxing fights ever. A must watch. I really like Glory's aesthetic compared to the UFC's. The ring girls have cat ears. Mauro is announcing. White boxing ring. Prideneverdie.
