Pitch Grinder Shmitch Grinder.....how about THIS?

Post by Ben79 »

Built a true bypass loop with a variable feedback circuit with a momentary kill switch (which kills the feedback loop in feedback mode or kills the loop with the feedback switched off). Only tried it with an old Clone Theory and a Bass Balls so far- latter yielded some strange filter oscillations controllable with the guitar volume.

Aen, message me and I can give you some tips on how to build something like this...

Your pedals aren't shit. That new one with all the knobs and lights actually looks alright, even though it sounds like an old computer game, but I'm sure you'll find a way to fix that (hint: try increasing the bitrate ;))

Seriously, I was amazed this one worked! But it did, first time! I'm interested in feedback generally as a concept (complexity theory, fractals, consciousness etc.) so I'll be using it in an upcoming art installation.

You didn't invent the footswitchable feedback loop. It's generally the second thing DIY guys build after a true bypass loop.
