You really don't need an expensive pedal such as The Decimator. There are much cheaper noise gates/ killer pedals for less than half price. The T2 electronic reverb prdal is good but there are cheaper but equally good reverb pedals out there. The copper wire is only for effect and does absolutely 'NOTHING.'
I own only the T2 pedal and a noise reduction pedal. You don't need an expensive T2 and instead buy yourself a standard reverb pedal and noise reduction pedal. Settings wise, turn the dial on noise reduction pedal to max on the right and slowely turn anti clockwise until the loud noise becomes less noisy but still audible. For reverb settings, try church or concert hall mode. You can buy reverb and noise reduction pedals from Donner at less than half price of just one of the TC Electronics pedals. Marshall make a pedal with reverse reverb mode.
The copper wire does nothing and only used for effect. Avoid buying crystals as they do nothing either. A pedal or two plus a radio and speaker is all you need.
Bernard Kelar so in other words your saying have the noise reduction turned all the way to the right cutting out all noise except the voices will still come through? I already have everything lunchbox amp decimator ll & T2 pedal. I’m also trying to have a voice recorder hooked up to all this so I can record the portal PSB-7 audio only.
Read the answers to your previous questions regards the settings. Keep your PSB7 away from anything electrical such as kitchen appliances and computers as this causes interference.
Tghhere is no function of applying a copper antenna to a already copper shielded wire. I build boxes, and I could see zero difference between having it, and not
@@lifeafterlife9939 I have made boxes with, and without the antennas, and crystals, and I can tell no difference.Huff isnt talking at all about his boxes, so I dont know his position about it I personally would say that the are just for looks, but the problem is that everyone expects to see that crap all over their boxes, so I ultimately have to include it. Remember, all the cables used on the boxes already have a copper sheathe around them, under the insulation for grounding, so adding more doesnt make much sense.
@@kimsleep4111 Right, I thought so too. Can I ask you for advice please? I have a reverse Donner pedal, 7 effects. Can you recommend a good cheap reverse pedal? Is the flashback better than the Donner, or does nothing change between the pedals? Thanks so much
@@lifeafterlife9939 I am a HUGE FAN of the simplest pedal possible. You dont have to fiddle with a hundred knobs to have a workable signal. I like the HOF Mini Reverb, 1 knob....you dial in until the signal cuts out, then back it off slightly. like the HOF mini reverb, again....1 knob, and its pretty much set and forget. I cannot comment specifically on your pedals, as Ive never used them....but I would say...TRY THEM, and see how they work, and if they do...GREAT....if not, then try something else. ALWAYS try to buy used, as these little pedals are usually used pretty gently. I honestly do not believe in Mr. Huffs comments that kinda say, use these pedals, or else it wont work. If you have spirits around, and take the time to have them speak to you, ANY BOX will work, often without a feed from a Receiver. Im always available to help.
If you use the pedals that are mentioned, that Steve insists on, and even a half decent speaker, it will work like crazy. Ive made several boxes, with no trouble, I just dont do the ridiculous copper antennas, or crystals...as I found they do not work. The main problem is that its expensive enough to make one, and when you but a $300.00 speaker......it makes the overall boxes price sky high
I purchased: The Original Portal with lights from Ghost Outlet. I am really excited to get it I paid USD$799 plus to Shipping fee correct if I am wrong but if I can remember was something over $80 I think🤔.anyways I live in Canada and that was the best one I could find at the time. I Bought it July 31st and now it is August 17th. I really hope it comes soon. A while back Last year I purchased Pico Poltercom Spirit radio. I barely had it for two weeks and then it stopped working during a session. I later on noticed that the Brand new rechargeable Energizer batteries get really hot inside the radio yet the radio doesn't even turn on or make a sound😭. I am really sad about it. I contacted their Staff so many times for help and I never got any help from them ,So I don't know what to do. I could of connected my Poltercom Pico to the Original Portal with Lights whenever it arrives but now I am stuck with either using a scanner ITC Research Ghost box or an App. Either way I am just so excited to eventually receive this Portal
It doesnt. you are attaching a wire to the shielded part of the plug, which is already shielded with a copper shieth. I make boxes, and I dont include any of that silly stuff..no crystals either
hey try using the wire and not batterys and see if there is a diffirence, In spirit battery acid is the spirit of sick shit and they could turn you amp into a harsh realm, if you color it yellow it will be more tech spirit to and work better harsh realms can be built in black, yellow would be best since its a tech device.
I used Steve's directions and built his Mini Portal box using the same things, but cheaper, and it sounds as good or better than yours and I already had an amp, and it cost only $120 in all the other parts.
Actually, all of his inner parts are just to add the lighting effects, little else. He adds crystals, but he refuses to talk about anything having to do with his boxes, so we just have to guess. Many different people get just as good reception (like me) from absolutely different configurations.
@@kimsleep4111 actually huff is a personal friend of mine and I know for a fact he has videos that speak about his magnets with copper and other stuff within... but i also have made my own huff box.. however, his new box he has his own frequencies and so forth. Then again one would have to be his patreon member.. but, it is more than lightings and theatrics
@@GamsVB The problem is, that when you actually speak to him, he will not talk about all this stuff, as well as placement, and any other specifics. I have sent him several emails asking him questions, and only once has he replied, basically stating that he has given out enough information. You will note that his earlier boxes did not have any additional stuff on them, and they seemed to work just fine. The boxes that I make without all the extra things work quite well.
@@kimsleep4111 well, his box are still made the same. However, the only difference with the astral doorway is the frequencies he uses. However, everything else is pretty much the same. I mean, this man has been working on this for years. So, him not wanting to give his work away for free... can you blame him? As long as you understand the inner workings thats all that matters.. you just tinker with the magnets and you figure it out. Outside of that, you must have that connection with your spirit team. Meditation and grounding and protecting.. i personally have been in ITC since 2002. So, i am more of someone who likes to use my intuitive abilities, dowsing rods, or my DR60... i use my box once in a while.. but, unless you're able to establish your own personal connections its pointless... which many do not fully understand. And a box is not even needed honstly. We are the best tool.
@@GamsVB To be honest, he should be helping people, rather than keeping all this a secret. All this does is spur questions on his honesty. He should at least tell us about the theory of what the add on items do, so people , will at least head off in the right direction when trying things on our own. Im sorry that he feels like he has been ripped off, but thats what happens when you monitize and sell things, you leave all your ideas out in the open to copy. I have been making boxes for years, inexpensively for people who are really honestly trying to delve into this. I have sent several questions to him, and have received nothing back. I really dont think that things like this should be considered profit making devices, but thats just my personal opinion. To be honest, I think that not replying to emails i s just crass. My boxes without all the silly Bells and Whistles work just as well as his.

I use the TC HOF mini programmed with Steve Huff's preferences. Works great. I get them off e-bay for $75-$80.
Very well explained.. Thank you!

Bernard Kelar May I ask what settings you use for the decimator ll and T2 pedals? I’m trying to get the clearest PSB-7 responses for FM & AM.

@@bernardkelar6089 settings vary from day to day...just keep experimenting, there are NO rules
This is why Im a HUGE FAN of pedals with only 1 knob
I used the TC Hall of Fame reverb and it works very well.
Oh man I bet if you hook up a Strymon Bigsky and a Cali 76 comp you could hunt some demons then play a gig.
I could buy a 20 watt Fender amp with in built effects costing $130 less than the small Lunchbox Junior.
Thing is I've tested out many of them, for some reason the Lunchbox jr. seems to be the best for this setup.
@@Rspenesmit Huge speaker units are fine....just not very portable, which is the key
Hi, sorry, I also built a similar one. Listen, what's the function of the copper coil attached to the pedal cord? thanks a lot

someone just needs to make a good ghost box with decent speaker, reverb and a noise gate

How do you make it so quite?...my Psb7 makes a lot of noise while connected to my box..any pointers?
u might need a better noise gate peddle
or play with the settings, the noise gate pedal is the most important here
I think you have an ORB in Duration 4:08 lol shoots from left to right
Nice catch!
How does the copper cable enhance it?
what i assume is that it would act like an antenna. normally i would think this would cause interference, but in this case thats kindof what you want.
It doesnt. you are attaching a wire to the shielded part of the plug, which is already shielded with a copper shieth. I make boxes, and I dont include any of that silly stuff..no crystals either
Kim Sleep copper shieth?
@@MetallicaFanSandman All audio cable have copper braiding around the cables inside to shield the cable from EMF. Cut one open, and see for yourself.
Kim Sleep makes sense now. Cause when I have the copper antenna on I can’t push the cables all the way into the input.
hey try using the wire and not batterys and see if there is a diffirence, In spirit battery acid is the spirit of sick shit and they could turn you amp into a harsh realm, if you color it yellow it will be more tech spirit to and work better harsh realms can be built in black, yellow would be best since its a tech device.
The amps he specifically uses are no longer available....most amps are just as good, Just add a 9.6V rechargeable Li-Ion pack, and off you go!
I used Steve's directions and built his Mini Portal box using the same things, but cheaper, and it sounds as good or better than yours and I already had an amp, and it cost only $120 in all the other parts.
You sound like youre from Wisconsin
Huff's box, is more than just the outer parts. How did you enhance it within? Cause I didn't see this mentioned?
Actually, all of his inner parts are just to add the lighting effects, little else. He adds crystals, but he refuses to talk about anything having to do with his boxes, so we just have to guess. Many different people get just as good reception (like me) from absolutely different configurations.
