...i can haz instant lo-fi...

[Kayzer]

...okay its not the highly anticipated zvex pedal but at least something as cool and uncommon...

The Hexe Melusine has a filter control to brighten the signal (hi pass), a crackle control to adjust the volume of the vinyl style cracking, a noise knob to mix in white noise and a neat vibe/shimmer...

starting at 01:09 is one of my favorite parts, this thinning out and going full brutal stuff ala ibanez lo-fi is pretty neat with a vinyl vibe... I will definitely use it an upcoming song!

one clip, lots of knob tweaking!

Sounds... creepy. Best way to put it.

Wow, getting further in the video... sounds great!

Nothing I can't achieve with purposely crappy gear, but it sounds amazing nonetheless. Especially the El Cap parts.

Also, nice light on it. Is that an amp jewel?

 

[Kayzer]

yeah it looks alot like an amp jewel from my old bogner...

The melusine will definitely end up on my live board *schwing*

 

[TheReverendCommon]

whoa.i really dig that!

Interesting, how much does the Melusine cost (in Euro)?

Not knocked out by the effect (to each his own) but, wow, what a gorgeous clean tone!

I like the concept but am too broke to put that kind of money into one... at 175 or so I'd be in... not that the instant lofi will be any cheaper
