Godalmighty…I feel like Methusala. Progressive for me lately is old King Crimson,Porcupine Tree, & Sigur Ros, but it’s an interesting education learning about all this music I’m unfamiliar with.
I wondered about Auto mode like many others at first, but experimenting with the SPEED & GLISS knobs got me to a place where I can trigger chords with minimum effort…so, don’t give up on the Auto mode.
Have you tried any of your other boxes in the Send/Return loop? It’s big fun, as the Superego mixes that specific synthy/Poggy flavor into whatever fx you run through it. I’m not even that big into heavy dirtbox washes, but cranking a fuzz w/ some delay into the SE creates an amazing wall of zound.
Think 1 thru 10 on the four controls: SPEED(9) GLISS(1) DRY(9) EFFECT(9)
…this setting should give you easy auto triggering.
