  • Get glitchy circuit bent synth sounds from your pedal board. Remember to keep the volume low and try this setup at your own risk. This is not how your pedals were meant to be used, but it's a whole lot of fun!

    I discovered this as a stoned teenager and thought I’d unlocked an inter-dimensional portal. I remember the whammy pedal in particular was totally crazy sounding.

      I haven't actually tried a whammy with this, I can only imagine it would be beautiful carnage!

    You can do that no input synth thing with a mixer also. Simon the Magpie has a video showing that kind of stuff. All the eq knobs affect the tone and you can use pedals there as well. I like how vocal the filtering in the Phaser sounds.

    Very cool idea . Would have been fun to see it paired with drum machine. Chords are ok but a simple beat really let’s the weird sounds shine without needing harmony.

    • @probindemufhoes42069
      @probindemufhoes42069 Год назад +3

      Wait do you mean like putting the drum machine in the chain or to substitute the amp with the drum machine and route the chain of pedals into the drum machine input?

  • @elemkay5104
    @elemkay5104 Год назад +3

    You can do this with pedals that have multiple outputs, rather than into the amp and out. The Digitech Bad Monkey has an amp output and mixer output. You just patch from the mixer output into the input, and out of the other output you have your self-oscillation. Everything else works like the way you explained in the video. Nice work!!
    I would love to hear what sounds could be gotten from using some exotic reverbs on full wet. You could get some more mellow sounds by doing that and reducing the volume.

    • @stuartchapman5171
      @stuartchapman5171 6 месяцев назад

      Hi, I use pedals for soundscape, most of the digitech dirt pedals have this feature. I have 4 now, as our Lord Josh Scott showed us, the Bad Monkey is a superior Tube Screamer clone because the eq is better. The digitech hot head is a DS-1 clone, with, Yep, a better eq. The Death Metal is a HM-2 I beleive, I think the eq is the same though, but you have the extra output and cab sim function, that all those era digitech dirt have, I beleive you hold down the footswitch whilst connecting the power. I think the mixer output has the sim on it, you'd have to look it up. I have the Digidelay and the Turbo Flange as well, the delay has cab sim, but the extra socket gives you ping pong delay!

  • @waynegram8907
    @waynegram8907 Год назад

    MIKE BANFIELD, have you tried taking the effects loop SEND and then connected that to the fenders amplifiers TREMOLO Channel input#1, while the guitar is plugged into the NORMAL channel input#1. You can also try making a video lesson about both of these sets ups, but also try connecting the guitar pedals backwards in this circuit bent setup because they will oscillate when the output port is now the feeding an INPUT signal through the output port. Try make a video about this

    My bandmate/ friend Ryan still asks me which side is the input sometimes ... I mean bro.

    this is up my alley. Akin to "no-input-mixer" approach to synthesis/sound design. I didn't know you could do this. What does the amp input being patched into the pedal input do, in terms of lay-person's explanation of the electronics?
