Sitar Swami

[0pethravn]

i thought this pedal were a clean-sitar em emulator... but it's like a tube-twist distorted noisy trinket how disappointing T_T

[DENISDNSM]

"Sitar Swami : j ai vomi tandoori"

[pearljamporch]

well, this doesn't sound like a sitar at all... it sounds like a rare flangered fuzz... but cool video

[Ln192]

This video has brought me new meaning in life.

[yourpaljc]

I like it too. On its own it's ridiculous but I like what you're doing with it!

[minusjason]

I can answer your question. It sounds nothing like a sitar at all. It sounds like a a really crappy flanger. I'll check out your other video to hear it without the fuzz though.

[herrloop]

All I hear is overdriven flange.

[NapalmBBQ]

I know where I can get one of these right now, but that sweep is so dominant...

What were your settings on the french toast? I've seen your other video, and the swami seems to have some fuzz built in. Is that your experience?

[ironbuttermilk]

Sounds like an F-15.

[kensteee]

Like what you saw and heard? Then join the Danelectro Sitar Swami group on Facebook!

[BrianMorrison71]

Does it sound like a Sitar? I don't know, but I like what I hear. Now imagine Christopher Walken saying that. now imagine Walken saying everything he said...LMAO

[BrianMorrison71]

I love it it sounds like a planet of snarloriaons being blasted with a partical ray.

[BrianMorrison71]

I bet it works better without the distortion

[Djici62]

c'est bien pourri comme son !!!

[ccbyeg]

This is the funniest guitar video I have ever seen...

Love it!

[apehyes818]

notic how it sounds nothing like a sitar

[Texasredfish5114]

5 fu*&en stars thanx 4 yer time.

[fighterinferno]

This might sound better with a higher end octave/fuzz with the gain turned back.

[Costch]

It sounds like a (shitty) ring modulator with flange.

[goemonronin]

Agreed

[Mazjinga]

Brilliant - the most entertaining guitar effect demo I've ever seen!!!

[mauroo33]

can you do a demo with clean signal???????? it will be awesome!

[GBZ10TROY]

I just got outbid on an ebay auction. Should have checked YouTube first. This is a terrible pedal. Yuck! It sounds nothing like a sitar. And nothing like a guitar. Awful and hideous.

[stephen102]

fukin terrible

[iorispiegel]

do one whit out the french toast :D, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeaasee!!! theres no demos in anywhere about this pedal

[bozsomo]

I will! Will post it in the next couple of weeks.

[goemonronin]

the distortion does really throw it off

[tbnmusic]

It's like a bit-crusher tremelo crazy weirdo thing.

And than it also sounds like a sitar, of course.

(I'm writing this as I'm watching by the way.)

Would be nice if you could mess with the speed and intensity.

[Yoshio1988]

toooooooooooooooooooooooo flanger

[GeorgeBrooks09]

What would you use this for?

It just sounds jike white noise with some filters on it....

Thanks for the vid

[bozsomo]

It's good for electro, experimental, or noise. It's more for sonic textures than for actual music. I mix it up with a lot of other effects, fuzz pedals and delays. I use it on keyboards and drum machines. The worst thing about it is the fact that as soon as it's turned on, the signal gets super weak and quiet. That's why, in the video, I have to augment it with a fuzz pedal. I would not recommend using it in a live setting!

[MarsHottentot]

The problem with the Swami is it's wildly limited and has such a radical signature it can only be used ONCE. It's cool, it's insane, how it got green lit I'll never know, but it's the kind of gimmick pedal where you really can't dip into it very often without getting a diminished return. Just my 2cents. Fun vid.

[PeterRosenqvist]

Wierd sound, not sure if I like it, however, thanks for posting this video. {;o)

[Dreelamb]

Gave you a 5 Star I think it sounds Jimmy Hendrix cool. Especially when it goes higher. Thanks! ~Andree'

[dj7eight]

great shot...

it's obvious yr a film guy.

the shelves, the glasses and the tele set it off.

pedal sounds good too
