What would be some psychedelics with notably little distortive effects?
The generality of psychedelic distortion would include all distortions of senses and thought/imagination. An ideally distortion-free psychedelic would induce the psychedelic "clearer than sober" effect but in ideal coherence and stability. Without the characteristic chaoticness of a tripping state. With increased conscious control of thought processes. Etc.
This seems to happen (subtly) when using doses of LSD that don't quite manage to produce any wobbliness yet. I'm just wondering if such a state can be induced in significantly STRONGER form without introducing so much distortion.
Actually, I'd say this is perfectly comparable to the principle of amplifying a signal. When you have an ideal amplification for the signal, it remains clean but becomes stronger. In less ideal conditions the signal gets noise and may clip. This is apparent when listening to some old or cheap audio gear at high volumes.
I don't feel that psychedelics introduce the kind of distortion that is comparable to a clipping, noisy signal - it's "clean" distortion, at least on classical psychedelics. (Any examples of "dirty" distortion? Some RCs possibly?)
I'm not wanting to avoid distortion either, I mean, distortion is fun as hell. It's just that a perfectly clear and super-coherent psychedelic state would be of great use for some purposes. Like the perfect nootropic!
