a video might help. what kind of warble is it? chorus-y, vibrato-y, etc?

July 29, 2011 at 11:02 pm in reply to: what’s the difference between the stereo and deluxe electric mistresses? #101934jackilocustMemberthe deluxe has a color/tone control, and the stereo has a chorus depth control. aside from that, they should be about the same.
jackilocustMemberQuote:I mainly wanted to know in the act of saving money. I’m kind of annoyed by the fact that the second switch is feedback, when most would want a depth switch.actually this isn’t too uncommon a setup. the mxr micro flanger has the same controls, aside from not having a portion of its rate knob dedicated to a filter matrix. you have to pay more for a depth control. :p
jackilocustMemberQuote:Well that was sort of what the Frequency Analyzer’s supposed to do when the filter is engaged, it’s supposed to get rid of the upper sideband. However the filter doesn’t completely get rid of it.exactly. it wasn’t a single sideband modulator. it was a ring modulator imitating one. and even if it was, it’s still an ehx first at that rate.
jackilocustMemberyeah, I didn’t think ehx would pull a fast one quite like that on us. lol
jackilocustMemberQuote:Well, that’s a first. Must be the one Mike was talking about in the interview of “nobody doing it before”. Is there any other products coming out? Nice to see something new.
well it’s not like this is the first time ehx has done something original. the memory man was supposedly the first solid state delay, and I’d never heard of “single sideband modulation” before the ring thing came out.
jackilocustMemberQuote:Just bought the memory boy today and noticed a problem with the waveforms. When the switch is on the squarewave setting you get sounds for the triangle and when on the triangle setting you get squarewave sounds. Is this a common fault with the pedal and is it worth taking back to store for a replacement?mine definitely doesn’t do that… whether or not you take it back, though, is up to you. it technically still works; it’s just a little bothersome.
jackilocustMemberoh, also, the tone knob cuts treble frequencies as you turn it left of the center position, and random harmonics are added to the instrument signal as you turn it right of the center postions. if you’re using the internal synths, it creates a frequency multiplication of the synths and works pretty much like a ring modulator.
again, I hope this was helpful.jackilocustMemberQuote:yeah, the internal synths don’t have a built in portamento function. but I’m sure you could possibly do it with the right midi controller. I would know, though, because I really only use the vocoder settings with an external instrument. for the record, though, each of the vox robo settings has only one voice, the single drone has two, and the major/minor drones each have three. you can’t portamento between them though. they’re meant to work like chords. I hope this helped, at least a little.also, I’m not sure if these are meant to be used in immediate conjunction with talkboxes… how do you have it setup, out of curiosity?

jackilocustMemberno, it’s still analog. it just follows the same standards. and if you don’t believe me, try this test. put a new battery in it, and leave it on for a few hours. if the battery is dead when you come back, it’s digital. if it still runs like nothing happened, then it’s analog.

I’ve been searching and reading posts, but haven’t found anything that has helped yet. I use the EP-2 Pedal with my Ring Thing and when I use it for pitch shift (up 1 octave), while the pedal is in toe down position, there is a fast warble to the notes. Even the led of the “Preset” switch blinks as the note warbles. If I step on the Preset switch, both the blinking and the warble stop, but if I use the expression pedal, the blinking and warble are back. I can’t tune out the warble with the fine tuning, either. It gets better, but is still there. Can anyone help me???blinking just means that something about the preset is being changed. and the warbling is probably being caused by the filter. either turn the filter rate all the way up, or off, and it should go away.
the fact that it seems to be syncing up with the preset light’s blinking is probably just a coincidence.jackilocustMemberQuote:According to my EHX rep, it turned out there was already a Killswitch on the market so they changed the name.okay, that makes sense.
