    Yeah the sustain is a moot point when the only other things in the chain are a delay and a looper haha :) everything lasts plenty long either way

    You guys never question those rules of thumb when you've only got a couple things in the chain tho? I basically just crank the knobs on my delay pedal all the way (I play a lot of ambient guitar, so sue me) putting the compressor after it is creating this awesome effect where it masks the decay...

    Actually hey what do you guys think, in general -- compressor before or after delay? I'm hearing pros and cons to each. I'm one of those weirdos that oft enjoys putting my distortion after my delay tho so hey

    And Grayling WOULD have largely evacuated south to the Midland/Bay City/Saginaw tricities if that whole area wasn't fucked. Wow.

    The Edenville Dam in Midland, MI (world HQ of DOW Chemical) collapses forcing thousands to evacuate

    Right up I-75 Close to me as a rural Michigander, where I live driving 25 miles to work (past soybean, corn, and sugar beet fields) every day is pretty much the median commute. Tarrant is close but he's what we would call a "cidiot" (easier to say than spell, portmanteau of city+idiot lol)...

    Even further away, about half way between Midland and me. Michiganders use the backs of their hand as a map of the lower peninsula, I'm in the middle of the thumb nail, Midland is just left of the thumb crotch south of the index finger, for perspective... The place I buy my weed is right on...

    @Tarrant is actually a bit geographically closer to Midland than @Tuco is I believe. This is just up I-75.

    The Edenville Dam in Midland, MI (world HQ of DOW Chemical) collapses forcing thousands to evacuate

    Yes. Very close to home for me, I have many friends and family whose houses are underwater. The place I was attending school prior to getting cancer is ~15 miles from Midland city center. I was gearing up for a paid internship at Dow Chemical before I got sick.

    Just so damn weird that the last update was "depart facility" then it never made it to the next facility. So gotta ask if it even made it on the truck, or if it did make it on the truck if it made it off the truck at the Flint sort facility it should have showed up at later that night. It was...
