  • Are they plugged into multiple amps?

  • @sikamynoreg they are plugged in to a little mixer, then into one amp - Fender princeton chorus.

  • @EA78751 Thanks! Can I also know what kind of mixer?

  • @sikamynoreg nothing special, just a Realistic (Radio Shack) mixer that runs on 9V battery.

  • I've only got the lone Grendel, but it gives oh so much goodness day in and day out in the studio.

    I do set the DSI Evolver to drone and get the two playing nicely together as well.

    Your clock output from the LFO rate can drive the input on the Evolver to step the internal sequencer perfectly.

    A very satisfied owner of a Grendel Drone Commander in Minneapolis!

    FYI..my oldest daughter is 3 and she drives it rather nicely

  • dude you would be the coolest dad!

    thx

  • that a fat azz joint dogg?

  • ye too bad I can do all that on my laptop using minimal elctricity and with the same production quality.

  • @garrettlolwut seems like a blunt mate

  • Are you burning sage ????

  • fucking dream...

  • I like this a lot. Also it's cool when four single musicians with instruments play thus.

  • Would love to have one of these. Such sick tones. Maybe one day Mr. Archer can make this open source and I could build one myself... Can't really justify the price on one of these right now.

  • haha did he consecrated it with a chicken sacrifice when he opened the box?

  • The grendel has so much to offer, it really is a fun drone instrument. :o)

  • @EA78751 The tonewrecker!! Paul Birken makes some great sounds.
