If you've been following along with us at all by now, you know we love our pedals. And you know we love our super talented/local artists. And you know we love offering hand-painted limiteds whenever we can. And you know we love a certain legendary show that takes place in the very state we reside in.
Add all that up and you have 5 Hand-Painted Old Blood Noise "Parting" Pedals; hand-painted by In the Wash Artworks, and featuring 5 of our favorite characters that never saw the end of the series. They are:
"Maccaviti" - Met his end via car crash/suffocation at the hands of the boss.
"My Smelly Valentine" - Met her end after word got out that she flipped; clipped in the woods.
"The Shah of Iran" - Clipped during the NY/NJ War at a gas station while encouraging his grand children to "wave bye bye pop pop!"
"Sales Person of the Year" - Tragically took her own life (and the only death not on camera) out of these five.
"The Jacket!" - We all saw this one coming...fiancee retaliated after he put his hands on her. To be fair, he was lucky he made it that long.
As for the pedal itself...if you don't know...
In creative collaboration, harpist Emily Hopkins and experimental eect makers Old Blood Noise Endeavors are proud to announce Parting, a new musical device with a curated suite of eects inspired by their favorite glitch, signal crushing, and ambient sounds. One central knob crushes the signal or sends it into reverse, while knobs to its left control a selectable modulation and knobs to its right control a chance-based or envelope-controlled glitchy delay that you can smear into a reverb. Everything interacts with various layers of chance-based clock-changing randomness to create a box of pleasant surprises.
PARTING Features:
- Knobs to control delay buffer chance and time; reverb smear; random glitching; modulation rate, depth, and shape; signal dissolution; low or high pass filtering; and mix
- Stereo input and output, with the option for mono or mono-in-stereo-out routing
- Aux footswitch for tap tempo, half clock speed, or preset switching
- Expression and MIDI control over all parameters
- MIDI clock in and out for external tempo syncing
- Presets onboard and via MIDI
- Analog dry through
- Trails or true bypass
- Soft touch switching
- 9V center negative DC power
