I came here for a pedal demo and instead got this incredible piece of art. Ive never seen a demo this good. I cant tell if its the pedal thats amazing or the artist. Please point me in the direction of an album

[@drolofx]

I'd say the artist, definitely :) you can hear more from @basementlyle here: basementlyle.bandcamp.com/

[@basementlyle]

Hey thanks so much! That pedal is just instant inspiration for me. Can't recommend it enough. 🥰

[@basementlyle]

@@drolofx You're way too kind! The pedal most definitely did the heavy lifting here. 😍

This is already a top favourite for Pedal-Of-The-Year-2023 🙌

It's up there for sure...but Mood 2 is the king at No 1...

[@jakubbujakowski]

This demo blew me away. It's everything I would want from a pedal & more, it's an instant nostalgia machine and soundscape generator, simply beautiful. I feel inspired by just watching this video.

[@spltrcl]

damn, that is GORGEOUS, david! and, well..... so elegantly designed, re: functionality! PLUS: you addressed the longer time-stretching! dude. sir.

[@pamelaa4010]

Making notes for myself.... =) Stretch mode at 12:08 - KILLER BEAUTIFUL....! ASYNC mode at 15:27 - Holy crap, WoW....! Lofi mode at 17:40 - Crazy cool jitters....!! Lofi mode at 18:49 - Another spine tingler...! Rand mode at 20:30 - Incredible sounds.....!

[@PedalPlayhouse]

This is so lovely, you really have a natural way in making everything sound beautiful. This was an exploration of sounds I enjoyed from start to finish. 👏 ❤ amazing

[@basementlyle]

🥰🥰🥰

[@ezzeapiaggio]

I kind of got lost in the music, specially the passages with piano playing, absolutely love that piece of music. The pedal had the perfect input for the music and sounds played. Beautiful video and pedal.

[@basementlyle]

Thanks! :) It's a very inspiring pedal and it seems to really work well with piano.

[@outsidersounddesign6915]

Ordered. Really looking forward to this one,

[@federicopianciola5370]

Love your pedals, David! I already own a Molekular and a Stammen but I will sure get a Stretch Weaver and this one in the near future!

[@maurobelarde8527]

Your creations are such unique! Greetings from Mendoza, Argentina! ❤️❤️❤️

[@drolofx]

thx and greetings from Belgium!

[@bnz70]

I love my Strands. I also love my Pladask pedals. Both have their own unique sound and twist.

[@drolofx]

glad you like it !

[@spikemoss]

thanks !

Looking forward to getting mine! =)

[@MarcQuigley]

this thing is amazing! 🙌🏼

[@G.GordonMidi]

Sounds great. Bummed I didn’t see the email in time. You think we’ll know I’m advance for the next drop? I can’t see the name without thinking of this line from The Big Lebowski: “This is a very complicated case, Maude. You know, a lotta ins, a lotta outs, a lotta what-have-yous. And, uh, a lotta strands to keep in my head, man. Lotta strands in old Duder's head.”

[@drolofx]

haha that's brilliant :) the next batch will be announced ahead of time like usual ;)

[@delivrance3961]

fantastic job!!!

Already sold out??? Dang!

Brilliant demo. Love the delicate playing and all that wild movement from the Strands! What a beautiful creation! 🔥

[@olavchristensen7264]

Congrats on this amazing new release!

[@drolofx]

thanks !!

[@Zappatalist]

Sold out before I even got the email. Hopefully the next batch…

[@sons7429]

Man, I wish I got in on this batch ! Gotta be quicker on the draw

[@winstonsmith8236]

damn, this one slipped by me. crap.....David has the most eloquent, tender grasp of glitch.

[@maxxrosen]

New drolo pedal? Insta-purchase.

[@CJIeDonbIT]

You sold it to me!

[@cougarman8]

Was on the site exactly when the pedal was released. Made it all the way to PayPal, but the site stalled every single step of the way, and I didn’t reload or anything. Sold out within 5 minutes. It’s impossible to get one of your pedals unless I pay big markups on reverb. It sucks:( Wish there was a preorder.

[@elpadresuerte]

Nuuuts!!!

[@yoyokitu]

Nice ! Is this pedal stereo ? It sounds like in this demo but I'm note sure...

[@drolofx]

no, like mentioned in the video, it's mono and the effected sound has been panned to one side and the direct to the other ;)

[@xchris1ian]

"Wet is panned left, dry is panned right" How is this effect achieved in a mono pedal? Looks sweet, patiently awaiting your next email :)

[@drolofx]

this is not done with the pedal but simply how basementlyle recorded the video, one side with the effect and one dry, for reference.

[@xchris1ian]

@@drolofx makes sense, thanks!

[@gabrieledistefano4985]

Do you know Maybe when will be possibile to buy one?😊

[@drolofx]

no definite date yet but they will normally be the next ones to get restocked

[@paulversey6589]

Any idea when the next batch will be for sale ? Can we have some warning next time so we can be ready to purchase ? Sold out before I even opened the email 😥😥😥😥

[@drolofx]

Not sure when but soon. the next batch will be announced ahead of time like usual ;)

[@paulversey6589]

@@drolofx Thank you David. Your a wizard. This pedal sounds amazing. Can't wait to get my hands on one.

[@marcdebroey2276]

Not stereo ? Missed opportunity. 😕

[@cougarman8]

They get bought up so fast and sold for way more on reverb. It’s discouraging.
