Note that the volume on this recording will fluctuate between silent and violent clipping... so you may want to adjust your vol down b4 you listen.

I have uploaded an mp3 of a loop I created playing over and over (and over) thru various pedals I built. -just click my avatar and hit play on the track marked 'homemade pedals demo'. Thanks for listening in advance.

basic setup: I have my gtr going thru an mxr carbon copy and into an envelope filter I built. this is being picked up on an sm57 right in front of the speaker on my crate v18.

edit - new shorter mp3 uploaded...

anywho, for those who asked for a sample of the sound of the pedals I've been building... here it is.

Thats pretty cool mistermikev, I been wondering when you were going to get around to posting more than the pictures and desriptions.

yeah, finally got around to it!

so what did you think?

I couldn't tell much about the other different pedals sounds since the envelope was on the whole time. Maybe do that again without the envelope. I like the envelope, it just covered the other sounds too much. Oh, and I REALLY liked the Shizhouse Blues.

think i have the new recording up now...
still has env filter tho... but no clipping. (forgot to make it downloadable/listenable)

hey thnks for the comment re shithouse blues...

will take the comment about no env filter into consideration on my next recording.

Yeah Mike,
Real nice slide playin' on Shizhouse!
Were you useing any homemade enhancement on that?
(wouldn't surprise me if you were usein' a Budweiser can for a slide)
Howlin'

hehe, I can assure you it would have been hacker shorr weiss or grolsch but never budweizer!

no, I didn't use my pedals on that recording. hadn't even thought about making pedals back then -that was done back in 98 or so and it was just my dano u2 into my halfler t3 and then into a peavey tube poweramp. my fav slide is this big heavey chrome guy I picked up somewhere.


thanks for the comments.
