What's your favorite musical effect?
Kwaping:
Musicians and music lovers, what's your favorite effect? You can answer either in general terms (heavy distortion, shimmery plate reverb, etc) or specifics (Big Muff, Empress Superdelay, Pigtronix Mothership, etc). I'm thinking in guitar terms mostly (because that's my instrument), but feel free to answer in your own perspective.
For me, it's tremolo. I think it's possibly one of the most underrated effects around. I love a nice subtle trem on blues and surf, and heavy trem on experimental stuff.
Specifically, I'm deeply in love with my new Empress tremolo box. Check out Andy's demo for a good overview of its capabilities. I demoed a lot of units and this one was the winner by far.
valley_parade:
Straight up filthy, heavy germanium transistor fuzz.
Shin-Ei, Superfuzz, that sort of stuff. Think Fu Manchu in the later 90s. Or Wata's lead on Naki Kyoku.
Kwaping:
I am definitely developing a taste for fuzz. It's too bad my budget won't allow for a fuzz and a distortion, and I already have the distortion. :(
ThePianoMan:
Spring reverb. Or plate reverb. Vintage reverb in general, I suppose.
Scandanavian War Machine:
i don't know if this even close to being relevent or if it's something completely different, but....woodblocks.
I have a huge boner for woodblocks. It's like a much classier cowbell.
