Remove Your Consciousness And Replace It With Amplification
Two Guitar Piece (feat. DOD Carcosa)
Trying a new thing, with two takes of the same drone metal piece playing against each other. The result, unsurprisingly, just sounds like Pyroclasts when the fuzz kicks in. Yes, somehow, if you just hold notes for ages with loads of distortion, you sound like Sunn O))). Who could have foreseen this?
New to the board this time is a DOD Carcosa, heard in the left ear. First time trying it out, but I was well aware of its reputation as a super aggressive and weird fuzz that can do everything from low-gain splutter to blasting your fucking head clean off. In this case, it was obviously doing the latter. The right ear take, when things get going, is a Fredric Fy-2, a Green Russian, a ZVEX Super hard-on clone and a Black Mass 1312 in series.
I was a little worried as to how well the Carcosa would perform in this setting, as its "exploding transistor" style of distortion is sharp and cutting, and on some settings can conjure screechy, oscillating feedback pretty quicky. But, its high-cut control was all the way to the left, its darkest setting, which meant that when it did want to descend into feedback it tended towards the low-fundamental sine-wave thing. But as you'll hear, when I wanted it to it could do that high-pitched howl. So overall: thumbs up on the Carcosa for scary drones. Well done DOD.

Orange Super Crush 100H - Full Volume Drone
Переглядів 812Рік тому
On Saturday I was feeling extremely sick so I figured the best thing to do would be to stand in front of an amp set to full volume for an hour. This is me warming up to record some other drones, the rest of which you can check out over on Bandcamp. cillian.bandcamp.com/album/guitar-drones-140123 I decided to use the Super Crush that was at the studio for this one (and my own OR15 for the rest) ...
Pedal Demo: Fredric Effects Super Unpleasant Companion

Two old-school fuzzes in a vaguely old-school enclosure running through a tube amp set to a relativey loud volume. Super Unpleasant Companion: www.fredric.co.uk/shin-ei-fy-2-fy2-fy6-fy-6-clone-super-unpleasant-companion

Dude was the orange dirty before you hit the companion? Because it sounds so massive here
Dude i really want the super unpleasant companion i saw this vid on u tube of a dude playing 6 fuzzes and used an og companion and i need that shit but its a little up there price wise you think the carcosa is fine to fill a nasty fuzz itch? Or you know any fy-2 clones that are little less than the fredric? I need something disgusting i got all the prettier stuff down packed by prettier i mean rat's, muff, n fuzz face n ofcourse a sf300
The Carocosa is great. The SF300 is also very close tonally to the FY-2 - the boss pedal it's cloning is itself a version of that circuit with an active EQ.
sounds fantastic! were you using a distortion / fuzz or was this purely the dirty channel of the amp?
Beautiful
i've gigged this pedal stock. it's fine. i play wearing big boots.
Doomtastic 🤘
This sounds awesome.
Thanks for this! Also thanks for the tips in the description. I’ve been seriously considering rehousing a Behringer but couldn’t find many videos. Yours helps. Thought about adding a microcontroller (Arduino, Pico, etc.) and remotely controlling the pots? Would need different pots.
Can I ask what is the pedal with Beksiński's artwork called? I remember I've seen it on the bismuth pedalboard and it really looks sick
It's a custom HM-2 from Inverted Cross Audio! So not the same as Bismuth's
@@voidguitarthanks bro!
Love the HM300! Done the 1.5 mod on a couple of them for friends. Will try to rehouse mine
What guitar is that? I love both the guitar and the riffs!
Thanks! A squier jazzmaster + a baguley baritone neck
Good drones. Been wanting to get the Carcosa for a while now, sounds amazing here.
I am a huge Sunn O))) fan, and I approve this.
Sorry to come to the party so late, but the replacement foot switch a SPST momentary on off? I don't know much about this stuff, I've only built 3 pedal kits before, nut from what I'm reading these kinds of switches are only on as long as they are depressed and turn off when released? thanks in advance, I'm only familiar with DPDT switches and any insight would be appreciated!
Yes, SPST, normally off, on when pressed. It will just have two lugs - current flows between them when your foots on it, and doesn't when it isn't
@@voidguitar Can I use the 1/4" jacks I use for guitar? I have a bag of them and I can't seem to find the housed ones recommended in the manual for less than 20$ since they come in bulk. Also, do I need to get a separate ac adapter plug or can I use the one on the sf300? and if I do is there a specific one you recommend?
@@oliverlangrall2014 I don't know what 1/4" jacks you use for your guitar, so I'm not really sure how to answer that. But if they're open jacks, those are a bit bigger and so may be a little harder to cram into the enclosure. In terms of the AC adaptor plug, as long as it's outputting centre-negative 9V and you've wired the power up in the same as it is with the on-board DC jack, you'll be ok. It's the same as any other pedal.
So do Berhinger do the SF300 in a TC Electronic enclosure, under a different name?
They do not, but realistically the best thing to do is grab a pedalPCB hyped fuzz if you want a top-jacks true-bypass thing
Thanks you for showing the jack pin wiring just what I needed!
What exactly are you using to get that nice of a drone?
Thanks for the nice comment! The signal chain is shown at 2:50, but the general principle is lots of gain with enough high-end roll off to prevent things immediately being reduced to squealing feedback. The RAT that the main section of the Life Pedal is based on is inhereintly good at this, as turning up the gain reduces highs. Plus the clean boost on it helps just slam the preamp tubes into hyper-compressed overdrive. The octave-up blend then adds back in some harmonic interest, so you don't just have a big saturated sine wave. Also: the amp is really loud in this clip, which helps things sustain for longer and when things do bloom into feedback it's a bit more 'natural' sounding.
@@voidguitar Thanks for commenting! I must have been too deep in meditation to have noticed the totally obvious signal chain right there. I've been trying to imitate the life pedal by using an octave pedal with a rat but it's not quite there. I'm definitely going to keep trying. Thank you for the tips! Also poked around your channel after commenting and you make some absolutely beautiful noise my friend.
love the droning towards the beginning, reminds me of a sitar
You created a new genre Hateful mournful psych drone blackened doom well done
Reminds me of dopesmoker
Great Video! i just did 3 mods on this pedal, maybe i'll do rehousing inspired by your video!! yeah !!
Sunn O))) approves this
What reverb/delay pedals do you recommend? Thank you
Currently on a Disaster Transport Sr, an Echo Shifter and an Afterneath V3. But i'd reccomend getting a feel for what kind of delay and verb you like before diving that far into things, maybe try something like an oceans 11 or one of those multi-mode joyo delay pedals if you don't know what style you want. I personally like the cavernous stuff from the Afterneath and the washed-out nature of the Dis Transport and the Echo Shifter.
@Void Guitar awesome thanks for the reply. Yeah that cavernous massive doom drone vibe is what I'm after
@@voidguitarwhat were you tuned to?
@@StarcleBlaze This was in drop F I believe.
good man!
Good
I’m your 310th subscriber 💪😎
Just purchased it. Gonna stuck it with a rat in series and then in parallel with a soda meiser...
Hey did you ever stick it with a rat??
great stuff man!
If your socks have tiny astronauts on em' then that'd make your shoes rockets! Love the energy...
Sounds awesome bud, what are you using
I'm kinda thinking about rescheduling my date, so I can check your bandcamp page...
That’s an outstanding tone and some the most original drone/doom I have heard in a long time thanks for the inspiration my friend
Thank you for the kind words! x
killer tone you got there bud.
Very nice ! I'd love an illustrated walkthrough as it doesn't seem so hard to do but I don't really know about electronic wirings.
😳
I have viewed this numerous times I am enthralled at how good it is.
