Damian Kastbauer and the Modded Crybaby Expression Pedal: Today we, well, forgive us but: express ourselves. We're joined by Damian Kastbauer of Pedal Brainz to talk all things expression.

We get some calls from the hogs about their favorite pedals to express, and try to give some technical info on both expression and CV while exploring the creative realms that open up when you don't take sound so linearly. Andy and Damian find a commonality in their approach to musical gear setups while Dan periodically reminds the listener that Old Blood just came out with the Expression Ramper X3. by Object Worship
