Would be cool, though i never liked the hold-to-record feature. Maybe make it optional?
I don’t like having to hold, as either i overdub a lot so would rather be able to move, or its bad for timing, or if i use the volume pedal for swells its impossible to loop.

I like the reverse, tap, pitch and filter though! Even the attenuation/feedback is cool at times (but very annoying when you don’t want it).
Also the ability to record at 8va then shift that down so its effectively 2 octaves lower is great…but i don’t think you can start looping with it set like that-it has to be on overdub.
Some annoyances are tapping resets pitch, tapped doesn’t seem to apply to pitch shifted sounds.
And the looper feedback is usually set to what delay you are using, when most would just want their loops not to disappear.

A really small minimum loop time could be cool for stutters….But also a way to record overdubs that are a few times longer like a loop multiplier- like recording a lead phrase that you play once, but you want it to repeat once for every rhythm chord you play underneath.

I’d also like to see the reverse mode from the deja vu section independantly. The ‘voices’ knob is great, could even have a forward setting and make interesting sounds with that. See the Earthquaker Devices Afterneath, because that makes very similar sounds to the reverse echo of the hazarai, something similar to the ‘voices’ function on the hazarai’s decay knob.

The only ways i can think this happens:

You plugged into the right output, rather than mono, so the delay is split time in half but first repeat normal time.
Same would occure if you plugged into the right input instead of the mono/left.

mod delay changes the delay time to get the pitch variations, so it can’t be exact…but the blinknig light keeps up with that.

reverse delay is ‘intelligent’ and senses the phrases so first repeat can be off time in an attempt to get that jimi hendrix type solo, not so great for exactly straight delays.. It also has ‘voices’ on the decay knob which is like adding extra delays, but will divide up the time of the main setting.

-I think you have to put in dotted 8 or triplet manually. Haven’t tried it for a while, but switching from 3 sec to 1sec is the only real time division you get, into triplets, but not even sure if the tap tempo resets itself.

i think it comes after the pitch processing so wouldnt affect which notes are triggered.

you might be able to get a good low pass filter to do it, but with a parallel loop to put it in so that dry sound isnt affected

http://digitech.com/en-US/products/trio this is only what i know of to do something similar, yet doesnt do it in that way as it triggers programmed sounds.

some people use specialist bass stings on the lower one or two strings, which i expect is goodon a 12 string type setup too.

somehow i think tuner, but does a tuner need knobs?

some mad pitch glitchy thing that jumps around perhaps on some cool way?.

or something to do with that brand new genre called ‘heavy metal’ (but not enough knob perhaps-but just pitchforks and hell and all that)

or something to do with farmers, like a wurzels signature pedal.

would be cool….

i’m thinking base strings somehow on the hazarai reverse patch, and shimmer kind of sounds, that is, something reverby based because it kind of gets close but no one ever purposely made an algorythm to simulate strings or any other instrument…

and piano would be great if there was a ‘sustain pedal’ pedal, but i’m not sure how they’d create pianos!

an additive synth would be great…like a hog but with many more pitch shifters…and simplified controls like even or odd harmonics or something like that…i’m just thinking like harmor, or kawai k5000 synth, but instead of using sines is it possible to use guitar….

or granular synthesiser…chopping up the guitar signal and putting it out as some synth sound…

could they also create the first convolution pedal? that would also be great…not for reverbs necessarily, but for totally weird stuff.

I figured they were probably using some of these things in their recent pedals already, along with granular synthesis too…just seemed the obvious route to go down!

(i really want a hazarai mark ii first though!)

I’m sure it would compete with the strymons and eventides if there were just minor changes actually…forget adding tons of modes- essentially its great but a few more improvements on how it does things would be great.

Volume drop is due to the phasing of the ouputs i’m pretty sure. There are certain configurations of how you plug in outputs that work(but mean the effect is unusable/lost functions)…or actually hooking up to stereo of course….its just how the two ‘phased’ outputs are summed into mono they cancel on both dry and effect-at about 45 degrees each or something because phase switching doesn’t help much. Stereo is fine, one channel only is fine, running through both channels in series is fine with suitable changes like buffers or preamps inbetween.

I think there are multiple modes so there are presets, the only reason for adding modes is say if they give 3 presets for each mode, then not need 1 sec, 3 sec versions so include somethng else maybe just slightly different like rate knob, oscillation whatever…

yeh anyway reading up i think it works best with the pedalboard- and actually amp preamp inbetween because of those ’90 phase outputs’ so channel R straight after guitar and L one in fx loop creates enough difference for the phase not to matter when ran through itself.

yeh those out of phase outputs were annoying when i built a blend with 180 switch…But i used it with the blend knob off.

so people are saying that expression pedal sweep through the effect (like what is usually the automatic oscillation), but there’s an auto/manual switch–would it not change the speed in auto? or is that another feature ehx just missed/
