CryabetesParticipant
The analog sound had by a synth and a delay is a bit different; The synth’s sound is more from the analog filter and the various oscillators detuning, whereas the delay’s is “grain” and compressor artifacts.
CryabetesParticipantyeah those durn librulls don’t want us havin sitar-combfilter pedals.
CryabetesParticipantyeah. maybe something like the Digitech RDS 3.6 rack (don’t worry, it’s the same what-you-see-is-what-you-get settings like a pedal) or the Deluxe Memory Boy/Man for both the delay and chorus.
the Alesis ones are hard to find on demand but if you keep an ebay search up for them, they’ll turn up for fairly inexpensive about once or twice a month.
CryabetesParticipantAlso you could try a 2- or 4-pole highpass filter at about 50Hz to get some thick subbass, or a limiter to get more of a hip hop bass sound.
CryabetesParticipantdepending on how much harmonic content from it you’re using, the octave multiplexer might not be the best for octave shifting (heavy artifacts, etc); maybe look at some of the digital solutions – the POG2/Micropog, or even the HOG.
You might also want to look into a non-triggering (envelopeless/fixed) 8-pole filter to get the “richness” that you haven’t been able to get through FM+4-pole filter. My suggestion would be something like the Alesis Ineko/Akira or the Alesis ModFX Philtre.
Another idea for the filter would be getting a minitaur and using it solely for the filter.
You could also buy an infrasound synth (they’re commonly in the DJs section [for dnb, yeah?] or you might be able to find a DOD FX32 “Meatbox”)
Adding a Delay would be neat for leads – the SMMwH would be an excellent choice – and a detuning chorus would make your bass sounds real massive (small clone or stereo polychorus)
Really though I have a hard time believing you aren’t getting excellent bass sounds out of it – triangle wave + 4 pole filter is the triphop bass sound, and if you want to get a square wave or saw, that should be fairly easily available via the FM, XM, and LM knobs.
CryabetesParticipantget both, set them on top of one another.
CryabetesParticipantNot with analog, no, no point in higher than 330; digital though, yeah, I can make use of up to 8000ms.
CryabetesParticipantvoltage doubling circuits to make for easier pedalboard implementation.
CryabetesParticipantEHX will do out-of-warranty repairs for fairly cheap. Get in touch with them.
CryabetesParticipantyou could do that with the switchblade, but not the switchblade plus – there’s been a couple people who’ve tried and came back here complaining.
Otherwise there’s lots of A/B/Y boxes around for fairly cheap that do not have components in the signal path.

March 19, 2012 at 1:16 pm in reply to: 2880 hardware sequencer questions: what are people using? #117153CryabetesParticipantThe 2880’s foot controller isn’t midi (it’s a similar system but EHX-proprietary); However, with midi commands, you can access every function on the 2880’s foot controller (and then some), so if you were to get the softstep, you would not need to buy the controller.
Also bear in mind, depending on what you’re using it for, you may not even need the controller – I use mine for looping/sampling my vocalist doing her thing and then use the faders to play it back (I play sampler in the project – all my equipment is table top.)
Hope this helps.
(ps – you don’t need to make new threads and bump old ones when you have questions – one or the other is fine.)
March 15, 2012 at 3:52 pm in reply to: a few questions about my new stereo electric mistress #117127CryabetesParticipant1 – no clue. You putting it after a gainmoster type pedal?
2 – 9vDC (onespot, godlyke, etc) will be fine provided it meets the current draw requirement (stated in mA)CryabetesParticipantbecause that worked so well for danelectro…
CryabetesParticipantHere is the contact us page, there’s a phone number there.
