Filmmaker Bob Moricz demos the Sitar Swami guitar pedal. NOTE: The Swami pedal's signal is bolstered by the Danelectro French Toast (fuzz/octave) pedal.

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

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

  • What would you use this for?

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

    Thanks for the vid

  • 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!

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

  • "Sitar Swami : j ai vomi tandoori"

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

  • This video has brought me new meaning in life.

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

  • 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.

  • All I hear is overdriven flange.

  • 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?

  • Sounds like an F-15.

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