[warren0728]

i'm getting the script phaser and am working on a name.... :whatever:

so far i am really liking "phazed & confused" what do you guys think?

[sunvalleylaw]

"Phaser Set For
STUN"


:rockon: :D

[warren0728]

"Phaser Set For
STUN"


:rockon: :D
yeah that was an option but i'm really not a huge star trek fan....

i like "phazed & confused" because it is a play on "dazed & confused" by led zep (obviously)....one of my favorite songs by zep....

[duhvoodooman]

"Phase the Music"?

[sunvalleylaw]

I like Phazed and Confused too, but I was just throwing some other options out there.

[warren0728]

I like Phazed and Confused too, but I was just throwing some other options out there.
i appreciate it.... :beer:

[warren0728]

"Phase the Music"?
that's good too.... :whatever:

[Robert]

I like your suggestion Warren.

[Tone2TheBone]

You been phased and confused for so long it's not true.....

[just strum]

I like it Warren.

The only one I could come up with is - Going Through a Phaze.

[warren0728]

i thinking i'm sticking with "phazed & confused"....it's fitting... :thwap: :pancake: :beer:

[sumitomo]

Yea Warren,your's is the best.All I could think of was Phazed out or Phazed in.Sumi:D

[oldguy]

I like it..........:AOK:

[marnold]

Or you could go the Internet meme route and call it "Don't Phase Me, Bro!"

[warren0728]

Also a movie based in the 70's that's way too similar to my high school years, especially dig the music. The only thing we didn't do was the paddling of the freshmen. All we did was party hearty... :beer:

Burned way too many brain cells back then. That could account for some of today's issues... :messedup:

[Gil Janus]

Well, I'm a Trek fan :thwap:, so the one script phaser I ordered is being named Phasers To STUN

Gil :cool:

[Kazz]

I love Phazed and Confuzed....but their is also the great Purple Phaze that Jimi would have uzed.

[warren0728]

Gil :cool:

[warren0728]

Well duhvoodooman would love that :dude: :rockon: :AOK:
i'm sure he would.... :D

i have decided to stick with "phazed & confused" although there were some really good ideas in this thread....i think you should all order the phaser pedal from dvm so you can use your suggestions! :bravo:

i'm working on the graphics for my pedal now!

[warren0728]

just uploaded my graphics to dvm....here is what the pedal is going to look like....

[sumitomo]

Warren make it plaid and you've got a winner.Sumi:D

[warren0728]

Warren make it plaid and you've got a winner.Sumi:D
i might have to get another pedal and go with the plaid thing!! :beer:

[tot_Ou_tard]

Phazed & Confused is a great name, but you should come up with names for the knobs other than depth & rate.

[warren0728]

Phazed & Confused is a great name, but you should come up with names for the knobs other than depth & rate.
yeah i was thinking that too....suggestions?

[warren0728]

i'm drawing a blank....anyone got any ideas for renaming the depth and rate knobs.... :whatever: :pancake:

[Algonquin]

Tough one for sure...

Maybe 'Gravity & Velocity'

[duhvoodooman]

i might have to get another pedal and go with the plaid thing!! :beer:
I strongly endorse this approach. :AOK: :dude: :D

[warren0728]

can you do plaid dvm? :beer: :pancake:

[warren0728]

Tough one for sure...

Maybe 'Gravity & Velocity'
not bad....anybody else? :whatever:

[duhvoodooman]

can you do plaid dvm? :beer: :pancake:
You buy another pedal, and I'll find a way.... :AOK:

[warren0728]

You buy another pedal, and I'll find a way.... :AOK:
oh i'm sure i'll be getting more of your pedals! :beer: :pancake: :AOK:

[Algonquin]

not bad....anybody else? :whatever:
:cry:

[duhvoodooman]

Maybe 'Gravity & Velocity'
not bad....anybody else? :whatever:
How about 'Vertigo' and 'Panic'? I like those because of the connection to state of mind....

[warren0728]

How about 'Vertigo' and 'Panic'? I like those because of the connection to state of mind....
those are good too! :beer: :pancake:

[duhvoodooman]

I thought I oughta get a copy of Gil's phaser graphics posted here, too. The phaser graphic is from a photo of a model based on the original Star Trek phaser. And "Phasers to" is printed using the same font that MXR uses on the classic "script" version of the Phase 90:

gil's is cool too! :beer:

[Gil Janus]

gil's is cool too! :beer:

I approve this message :bravo: :beer: :dude: :rockon: :AOK:

Gil :cool:

[bigoldron]

How about "Altered" and "State"?

[sunvalleylaw]

I like both pedals, but I would be all over the Trekkie one myself. Beam me up Scotty! I can't think of something Trek oriented for Depth off the top, but Rate should be changed to Warp for sure.

DataVM, Make it so. ;)

[Ch0jin]

Good to know I'm not the only person who obsesses over these things :)

Love "Phazed and Confused" though. Nice work.

[Kazz]

Depth and Rate = Death and Destruction

[warren0728]

How about "Altered" and "State"?
i think l like this the best so far.... :whatever:

it's gonna take me longer to design the graphics than it will take dvm to build the thing.... :thwap:

[PAPPY]

search and destroy or seek and destroy

[duhvoodooman]

DataVM, Make it so. ;)
How about "Space" and "Warp"?

And, SVL--DataVM would be happy to make it so! $115 + shipping. :D

[sunvalleylaw]

Whoa boy, just virtual shopping here. I'm cut off for just a bit after my last round. :-)

[duhvoodooman]

Hey, we take "make it so" very seriously!! ;) :poke:

[SuperSwede]

On/Off toggle should be named Energize

[Algonquin]

On/Off toggle should be named Energize
+1 :bravo:

The thing I hate about coming up with "clever" names for the controls is that invariably they won't describe the actual function too well. So you have to practically keep a cheat sheet nearby so you remember what's what. Seems to defeat the purpose to me.

you know....that makes sense....i think i'll just go with the correct names for the knobs...otherwise it will look like i was trying to hard....

[Gil Janus]

As will I - my old grey neurons have enough issues, I don't need clever names for controls :nono:

Gil :cool:

[Algonquin]

I don't know Gents, this is a pretty cool chance to customize a pedal being handmade for you! In all likely hood, it will never leave your possession... and it's only two knobs. ( Not talking about you two... honest :D )

Find a synonym for for each word (Depth and Rate) that go together and have fun with it. I still think you can rename the knobs and keep the functionality of the pedal simple.
