A new graphics card, my pc seems to rebooting at odd times, and it no longer supports two monitors. Only happened since a power outage last weekend. Power was mad flickering for a minute before I pulled the plug :(
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Ironically, it's now worth more as a Paisley :rofl:

I've decided I don't like the digital sound. All that shimmer nonsense with endless trails - I just want a nice natural reverb sound. I love the Demeter Reverbulator and the Screamin' FX Uverbia, but they're expensive. $500USD for the Reverbulator and $300USD for the Uverbia.

Analog, like what was used in actual amp tank units, etc. Not essential though, I just don't like all these extra unnecessary sounds that are in reverb pedals these days. I'm starting to lean towards analog stuff in general.

I've looked into the Neunaber stuff, but those just make me regret selling my BigSky. I know you think Strymon is "sterile", but the BigSky is far from that. I want that Uverbia I posted above... but it's battery powered only, which puts me off.

some sort of chorus/flanger, a straight forward classic overdrive of some kind, and something synthy/quirky/fucked-up. I keep trawling trademe & here but nothing has caught my eye (ear) thus far.

I think that one is a custom shop colour over Paisley one, but it's gorgeous and I want it.

Yeah; didn't think it was original.

At least 3 or 4 anyway, I think my second one might be one of the postmodern ones they did for the last few years.
