DOA

Unfortunately, there was one casualty Friday night... My circuit bent Alesis Wedge, which has been a large part of my live setup for the last two years for every project except Animal Law, finally decided to retire itself. No smoke, sparks, or explosions. No heroic final burst of white noise from the stage... just silence and one final message on it's display:



So... it seems I'm now going to need to be on the lookout for it's replacement. If anyone happens to have an Alesis Wedge lying around that they're not using...

SLUDGE TONE

a few simple control mods to an octave multiplexer:
left stomp switch replaces the sub toggle
right stomp & additional pot: the additional knob is a second blend control... one is usually set about 50% & the other to full octave for maximum tarpit sludge tone. stomp switches between the two settings.
