IOTA

Today our hosts talk a little about one new OBNE product (Float V2) and a lot about another: the Iota Tone Generator! It's a very different device that followed a very different path to development, and our hosts are each quite proud to see it out in the world and finally discuss it freely. A simple idea from Andy for a tone-generating pedal with no input jack, iterated on over the course of a couple years, is now one of the more exciting new products in the Old Blood lineup. Something to let you truly play your pedalboard, no guitar required.

Today our hosts catch up on Dan's experience in Japan around the Tokyo Pedal Summit. He talks about a very special show at Gizmo Music, some pedals he brought back with him, and other tales of the great company he was surrounded by. Your hosts just wanted to catch up with each other, and figured you'd want the chance to listen in - so listen away!Buy some Old Blood: https://oldbloodnoise.com/Join the conversation in Discord: https://discord.com/invite/PhpA5MbN5uFollow us all on the socials: @danfromdsf, @andyothling, @oldbloodnoiseLeave us a voicemail at 505-633-4647!

Today our hosts are joined by Barton McGuire of Cosmodio Instruments. Barton is celebrating the release of the Horoscope Echo Sequencer, so our hosts naturally have a lot of questions about it. But they also learn all about the Mutable Instruments Anushri, the open source DIY semimodular synth kit that taught Barton a lot of early lessons in his journey as both a musician and a pedal builder. There's a lot of process talk - some good old fashioned Object Worship fun!Buy some Old Blood: https://oldbloodnoise.com/Join the conversation in Discord: https://discord.com/invite/PhpA5MbN5uFollow us all on the socials: @cosmodio.instruments, @danfromdsf, @andyothling, @oldbloodnoiseLeave us a voicemail at 505-633-4647!

Dan is in Japan! But don't worry, Andy has it mostly under control. And just like last time Dan was out of the country, Jeremy SH Griffith joins to talk mics, midi, tabletop pedalboards, and listen to some dispatches from Dan (and a few other fine folks).Buy some Old Blood: https://oldbloodnoise.com/Join the conversation in Discord: https://discord.com/invite/PhpA5MbN5uFollow us all on the socials: @danfromdsf, @andyothling, @oldbloodnoiseLeave us a voicemail at 505-633-4647!

Today our hosts engage in a quick checkin to talk about how busy they are! They start with a deviation about a particular guitar noise, then dive into a small episode about a small object: the Dunlop James Hetfield Signature White Fang Flow pick. Dan talks about how it came into his life, how it's made him appreciate other styles of pick, and why he keeps coming back to it.Buy some Old Blood: https://oldbloodnoise.com/Join the conversation in Discord: https://discord.com/invite/PhpA5MbN5uFollow us all on the socials: @danfromdsf, @andyothling, @oldbloodnoiseLeave us a voicemail at 505-633-4647!

Today our hosts are joined by Zach Broyles. Listeners may know him as the man behind Mythos Pedals, his guitar shop High Voltage Guitars, and as a host of the Dipped in Tone podcast. Our hosts talk shop with Zach, starting with the early excitement of tinkering with pedal mods and getting into the realities of running a brand in 2026. There's Tube Screamers, Klons, and Neutrona Wands, and a lot of insight into how different brands approach making a new product.

It's that time again folks! Our hosts are in a busy season and they have neither guest nor object, so they catch up on some anecdotes and take some voicemails. Expect a history lesson on the OBNE Headphone Amp, tips on optimizing your life, and a new analogy for riffs that may or may not hold up to scrutiny. It's Object Worship!Check out the Black Bobbin Flat Iron: https://blackbobbin.com/collections/black-bobbin-flat-ironBuy some Old Blood: https://oldbloodnoise.com/Join the conversation in Discord: https://discord.com/invite/PhpA5MbN5uFollow us all on the socials: @danfromdsf, @andyothling, @oldbloodnoiseLeave us a voicemail at 505-633-4647!

Today our hosts are joined once again by Shelby Pollard of Black Bobbin. He and Dan had some good conversations at Fretboard Summit in Chicago this past weekend, which meant it was high time for round two of Object Worship! They talk about the history of guitar manufacturing in Chicago, revisit the conversation of what makes a tele, discuss the symbiotic relationship between player and engineer, and Shelby encourages any and all of us to use these tools to make art in whatever form that takes. It's another good one full of facts Andy and Dan had never heard - hop on in!

Today our hosts are joined by Isaac Nelson to talk about the development of Beam Splitter. Isaac is the other half of OBNE's R&D department, and an actor of some renown, recognizable for characters such as Old Ike and whatever we call the corporate guy who drinks the Sunlight tincture. Isaac gives nod to his object (a blue strat) and describes himself as not a particularly curious gear guy, while also giving insight into the inspiration behind his triple tracking multi-distortion mono stereo trereo embiggening behemoth, Beam Splitter.

Today our hosts discuss two solo sets. Andy recently returned from Post Fest, where he played his first solo set in several years. He talks about how it went, the one technical difficulty he ran into, and the overall setup to create a visually and aurally compelling experience. Then Dan talks about prepping for his first solo set in a couple years, and the line between exploratory instrumental improvisation and simply singing the songs he's written. Then, some voice mails allow them to both give and take advice. If you don't feel like listening, just remember this: it's ok. The show will go on. You're doing great!
