Re: Mask Audio Electronics
Yes, it's sounds humongously huge when you combine both fuzz together!!!

Re: Mask Audio Electronics
Yesterday I was comparing these 3 dudes.
The Stop! is an animal of its own and it's the wildest of the group. I wrote somewhere I had the first impression this being low-gain version of the Yes, but I think it's more than that. It can remind a bit the Maybe's Yes with the Hell switch toggled on, but not completely... it's more like an in-between setting (?!?).
And I suppose it's more very likely, that Alec totally mis-biases the circuit eheheh
Which gives it place to interact with the Abracadaver. If you try to combine the Maybe's Yes with the Abracadaver... you won't get close to what Stop can achieve, since Maybe's Yes is so thick that it outshines the Abracadaver.
Yup... Maybe's Yes is just the thickest sounding of the bunch: it's a huge thick wall of sound fuzz, no matter how you set the More knob! In term of thickness EldirtchBlast is in the middle (but closer to the Maybe). Stop is way more splattery, rotten and gated, and... ROTTEN!
If you thought the Maybe? was one of the most extreme fuzz pedals out there... wait until you try a STOP!
Also note that to my surprise the EldritchBlast can get veeery close to the textures the Stop's Yes can generate!
In end you notice that Alec is behind all these. Like there's a signature/imprint/watermark in the fuzz sound, you won't find somewhere else.

Anyhow this is my demo for the Stop!

Re: Mask Audio Electronics
It was the temporal milestone of my spectral enfleshment, so I used some filthy-ass earthmoney to purchase one of those OOPEGG guitars and the LARAN. C/E did some demos and it sounded suuuper gronky and blargo PLUS the artwork is on point. I kind of also want the PG and the MAYBE? though I also bought a Porsche blue jazzmaster so I need to chill for a month or so.

There are noisy settings and there are gated settings.

Re: Mask Audio Electronics
I've been making eyes at the No. I seem to like the demo clips more than the Yes. No seems more gut-wrenching while the Yes seems trebly and squelched. Maybe seems good, but I tend to like simple pedals... being a simpleton. Too many options bums me out.

Re: Mask Audio Electronics
Anyone able to explain how the Cascader compares to the rest of the MAE lineup?
(BTW, if you hadn’t noticed, the Malaise Forever Clubber Lang is now in the MAE line and some should still be available at retailers.)
