Pedal Line Friday (Saturday Edition) – 5/28 – Ashley Emery

Apparently, after my experience with the Foo Fighters, my head is still in the clouds. I regrettably forgot to do a Pedal Line Friday submission yesterday! So today is a special Pedal Line Friday but on Saturday edition! Today we’re featuring the pedal line from Ashley Emery! If you have a pedal line (doesn’t have to be in a board) for your rig, please email me a photo, bio, description of pedals and routing to pedalline@nulleffectsbay.com. Every Friday I’ll showcase a pedal line submission. Make sure you include any links to your band or music page.

Attached is an image of my pedal line. Please note I am a bassist, my pedal choices might be strange but they work for the music we are creating.

Contents (from top left to bottom right)

– Custom built ‘Sonic Pharmacy’ Earth Bazz Fuzz pedal
– Boss DS-1 Distortion Pedal
– Boss BF-2 Flanger Pedal (modded, unclocked the flanger timing/speed settings)
– Boss DD-7 Digital Delay
– Custom build Kill Switch
– Boss SL-20 Slicer Pedal
– Custom built ‘Sonic Pharmacy’ Wormhole effects looper with a light receptive control
– Boss OC-2 Octave Pedal
– Boss TU-2 Tuner

Through the Wormhole effects looper I have placed the FL-2, DD-7 and the Bass Fuzz. This pedal allows you to loop the feedback from these three pedals creating a hellish assault of noise which can be dynamically controlled using the knobs on the three offending pedals. The feedback can be gated and controlled by the light receptive control which acts sort of like a theramin wah to phase the feedback.

The band I am in is called ‘Colonics‘ we are a three piece noise band from Brighton, UK. Our bandcamp URL is ‘http://colonics.bandcamp.com/‘ we have our first EP up for free download at the moment.

If the pedal line is included on the site could you also mention ‘Sonic Pharmacy‘ who built to of my pedals, the MD of the company is a friend/relative of the band and this would help his company reach a wider audience. http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Sonic-Pharmacy/205768589438011

I would love my pedal line to be featured on your site! It would be an honour.

Thanks Ashley
