Joey(HC's Seifukusha) was over during our Harvest Moon Festival house party, and took this vid of me playing the Jazzmater on a single take of arrpegiated doo-doo thru the new Moollon Delay and straight into the Fender Pro Junior. Those of us at the company are going to do a proper video sometime this week that I'll post later, a few days ago we gave it a shot and weren't satisfied with the sound quality of the shoot...Although the JTM45 on 11 blowing up the camera's microphone may have had something to do with it. The company demo this week should be more comprehensive.



Joey loves heaps of modulation.

Dude, if Moolon doesn't use close mic'd undistorted and uncompressed audio to do it's demos just ship them all to me. I promise to return some of them.

It sounds very nice though, although a lot of extreme knob twiddle without commentary just confused me, I couldn't really tell what was happening.

Yeah, t'was a twiddly noodle session of sorts that just did the swirlie stuff for a little too long.

We've got a studio booked for close-mic'ing the demo, but believe me, you'd be first choice for a demo abroad. I'll at least talk to the guys about it, you doing a few minutes thru a few would likely be a better help than probably half our int'l promotional budget.

I was only kidding, I know it would be a hassle to get stock out to me so far away, I'm not saying I wouldn't love to do it. And the gear demos do get "some" exposure.

Mezz would chew my arm off though if I got to play the Lotus before him.

Haha gotcha. At any rate, anything is always worth a shot.

What I mean to say is "If it at all possible, I'd love to do it, but I understand your company's ethos, and that I don't exactly pitch to your demographic"

Coooooooooooooool. I was confused, too, but I like it... I never really like those types of pedals, but it's sick.

Uploaded the "first impressions" demo I did when after first getting my grimy kimchi-laced hands on the thing two weeks back. Will keep it up until the proper demo can be uploaded. I EXPLAINING SUM TINGS TO THE PEEPLEZ.

Very nice demo mate, the filter is really impressive.

I now understand why the the delay time knob wasn't doing anything when you were in tap tempo mode.

Cool demo Ultra. The delay sounds really great - very flexible. Love the boxes too, such beautiful things!

Bit of a learning curve on that one!

Sounds coooooooool though.

As with the art of learning the pedal demo! You, Count Livesley and the others have been fine guides, but I've far to go...And memorizing just what 5 of the 11 positions of the mode knob do has been sufficient so far...

It's got cool tones hidden here and there, with enough patience they come out quite nice. I suck at playing guitar for more than 2 notes at a time and don't have editing softie to chop and paste the good takes, but we'll see what shmokin' rocker (and Moollie prez) Mr. Park will pull off at the studio next Tuesday, while I narrate the thing in my nasal SoCal twang. Mr. Park always pulls out Pink Floyd's Run Like Hell when in dotted-1/4 + 1/8 note dual mode with slight modulation, and it's bound to come out again.

Ta for the listen, chaps.

I'm really looking forward to hearing what you come up with in the studio. I'm a big fan of this stuff and I think you did a really grand job - I find that delay pedals are actually the most challenging to demo. I always lean on "Where The Streets Have No Name" which is terrifically embarrassing.

Haha, funny you mentioned it, I don't believe I've ever successfully pulled it off before watching eyes myself. Incidentally, Mr. Park likely does Where the Streets it by instinct usually right before or after Teh Floydz. I predict some rockabilly slapback, Little Wing-style bluesy lines/Jimmy Page-isms, and a little aforementioned chorusy '80s chunkies. We'll see.

So we finally did a properly-close mic'd demo at the studio, which is being edited and should be up soon.

If nothing else at the moment, you can see a little what one of the Moollon test rooms look like. despite being a bit dark and piled with vintage gear behind lurking shadows.


Session cat Samhee Cho tunes up the '81 Tokai Love Rock, a beautiful Paul copy. The little guy in the lower lefthand corner is the new Moollon Silicon Treble Boost, a full-production screamer of a pedal that will debut at NAMM '09 that sounds like a "dulled-dynamics but spitty" Rangemaster with some fuzz-like breakup (Built just like Ritchie Blackmore's old Hornby Skewes Teble Booster). With a Strat pumping through it into a JTM45 we got his tonez, too. Plenty of old prototypes all over the floor... And racks of other pedals on the other side of the guitar stand.





HIWATT, Voxes, Sovtek, and heaps of Marshalls.



Fuzz Face, Uni-Vibe w/speed control, more fuzzes, they were all waiting their turns.






Mr. Park and Samhee fiddle around a bit...

MOOLLON SIGNAL BOOST FOR HER...
Probably NSFW

.... about right....

Lovely sneak preview pics Andi, the fun I would have in that room

I'd probably cry if I ever went into that room haha.

You guys would absolutely love his fuzz collection, his vintage Color Sound in particular.

I absolutely froze up several months ago when he let me work the Uni-Vibe thru the cranked JTM45...It was quite embarassing, really. The fact that he slipped his lovely vintage '59 Les Paul Jr. over my shoulder didn't help either, it was like I had to just stand there and revere the moment in a highly inebriated musical stupor of sorts. My fingers were literally retarded all of a sudden.
