one of my favourite things to think about is somehow being signed up as a volunteer for an endangered monster breeding program.. something something getting bred by a variety of weird giant creatures and its all for a good cause teehee

going to get stoned later tonight and think about it some more

Yesssss. We all have to give up our fertile bodies forr the greater of monster kind. Bent over on breeding mounts for rounds upong rounds of different monster breeding. Maybe you have one cute litter or multiple beasts at a time.

Kashiyuka: My partner's role is played by a guy named KTR, and he is a dancer.

A~chan: I hear he is an amazing dancer.

K: Yes, he is! But in the music video, there is no dancer element at all. (laughs) His face is also processed in a rugged way, so it's hard to tell who he is. And the direction was to have him high-five, like, "Oh, that's nice."

Nocchi: Oh, you guys did it!

K: So we both talked about when to high-five. If we decided to do it when the score reached a certain number of points, it would take a long time. So we decided to do it when the ball drops, like, "Oh, it dropped, yay!"

A: "Yay" when the ball dropped? (laughs)

K: But then my eyes would follow the ball, and my gaze would be lowered. Then the director said, "Kashiyuka, please raise your gaze a little higher," and I said, "Yes, you're right, I shouldn't look down all the time."

A: You should have done it at a different time. (laughs)

N: You could have asked the director to give you a signal. (laughs)

K: It's just a momentary scene, but if you watch it in light of this story, you may understand the awkwardness.

KLON - CENTAUR / KTR

"(`・ω・´) Let me explain! KLON is an effects manufacturer based in Massachusetts, USA, and the builder is Bill Finnegan . In 1994, they released the high-quality but expensive overdrive pedal "Centaur," which gained cult popularity, but in 2009, they stopped production amid rumors that "the stock of that sturdy case had run out." Then, in 2012, they announced their successor, the "KTR," at the musical instrument show "NAMM2012" held in California, and it was released in Japan in October.

For a long time, the "Centaur" was considered the best and most luxurious overdrive pedal, and was a symbol of the highest quality equipment. Even so, in the early 2000s, it usually cost around 60,000 to 70,000 yen, and I bought a new one for a few thousand yen, but in 2009, it was discontinued and it easily cost around 100,000 yen.

Then, in 2012, the KTR was released. The price was surprisingly around 30,000 yen. "Centaur" is currently out of stock all over Japan, with people wondering if it's really worth buying for 30,000 yen.

So, the problem is [...the one adressed here; note], does the "KTR" produce the same sound as the "Centaur"?

When you actually play them side by side, the distortion characters are surprisingly similar. They both have the same pleasant midrange. There are some differences, such as oscillation when used at full volume, but there's no doubt that they basically produce the same sound.

So, what's different is that the "Centaur" has more depth and breadth in its distortion. I feel like this breadth gives the distortion of the "Centaur" a subtle sense of luxury. The distortion of the KTR is more forward, and in a good sense, it is clearer. The KTR has a switch on the side of the case that allows you to set whether or not to use the buffer, but strangely enough, turning off the buffer gave me a sound breadth closer to the "Centaur". That's all for now. My honest impression is that it's similar, but a little disappointing. I think it's the best Centaur clone ever. I think it's one of the best ODs in the 30,000 yen range. I can fully recommend it."
