I’ll put it in technical. . . it hasn’t been discontinued too long
julianModeratorQuote:Quote:I just ordered one yesterday, too. Anxious to see how it sounds.I’m thiiiiiis close –
Super curious about that FX loop, are subsequent delays each more effected than the last? i.e. do effects put into the loop build on each other as each delay is passed? It doesn’t seem this way in the 2 demos I can find. Kindly let me/us know when you get yours, if ya could.
An example of what I’m talking ’bout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaWKlLT2kxU&feature=related
Usually that’s not how FX loops are wired unfortunately.
julianModeratormaybe. . . they used so much stuff. . . who knows?
julianModeratorno wonder, those diagrams you posted make me sick just looking at!
Easiest way is to look at what wires go to the switch from the board. On both it’s the light blue and green wires.
julianModeratorThere are a bunch of diagrams here:

this one looks good:

julianModeratorBy EHX style, do you mean 3.5 mm male connector? If so, make sure you connect the polarity right, because I think those are center positive.
I’m looking for a good diagram of 3dpt wiring. I’ve found a couple but they’re incorrect. Maybe I’ll just make one.
julianModeratorI have several pedals with wet/dry/stereo outs, so that’s usually how I split it.
but yeah, what I would do is to split the signal before the Cathedral, set the Cathedral fully wet, then have a high pass filter followed by a distortion after the Cathedral.
Then recombine the dry and wet either at the amp if you have multiple channels that can run at the same time, or with a mixer.
julianModeratorQuote:SUCCESS!!!!
Last night we played around with pre-amps, compression, mixers, pickups vs. mics etc…some stuff sounded good but nothing triggered the distortion.
What finally did it was running a Flange and (or) the Q-Tron before the distortion.–Thanks Julian. If anyone has any ideas why these kind of effect triggered the fuzz I’d love to hear it so we can try other stuff.
We will need to some work to keep the feedback from going crazy but it was difinetly working, usable, and sounding exactly like we hoped it would.
Thanks for all or your time peeps.A square wave is a signal full of harmonics, a sine wave is one devoid of harmonics.
Distortion adds harmonics, making a signal closer to a square wave. (additive synthesis)
Filtering removes harmonics, making a signal closer to a sine wave. (subtractive synthesis)
A saxophone is already very close to a square wave, so I didn’t think distortion would effect it very much. So if you make it less like a square wave, the distortion will have a better effect on it.
julianModeratorsome people put foam in their hollowbodies to reduce feedback, or they maker F-hole covers.
julianModeratorring modulator, octaver, pitch shifter, or any kind of synthesis type pedal would be good with it I think.
julianModeratorlike this?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQNgdepm3_c&feature=relatedI think the first step would be octaving. After that you’d want to try to use a lowpass filter to start to subtract the harmonics from the signal and thus make it more sine wave like.
The hardest part would be the droning reverb sounds. I think a good reverb would only get you half there. It seems that the waterphone has multiple resonances akin to a comb filter. Unfortunately comb filters only really exist in computer plugins and racks right now.
julianModeratorSounds awesome Bill!
If you could spare some time, could you do a clip of just the portamento effect on guitar with some single note parts and then maybe play some chords as well (I’m aware the latter will probably glitch, but regardless, I’m interested to hear how it sounds)
julianModeratorI googled him:
julianModeratorI have that built into my PP2+, but it doesn’t seem to do much of anything interesting to any of my pedals.
julianModeratorI think the new one uses the same power, doesn’t it?
Big Muff + Frequency Analyzer is always quite awesome. Though I like it with just about any pedal!
I can’t seem to find a store selling the 40dc-100 US Adapter, only EU adapters. You could get it from New Sensor, but they have a 50 dollar minimum order I believe.
