now i’m thinking make a strymon timeline/delaylab competitor. EHX has the POG, small clone, Holy grail tons of effects enough envlope filters i don’t know which to chose. that we could get a taste of with delays…would i guess be a hazarai with more modes, like delay shimmer, chorus-delay, swell delay, grail+delay, filter delay, dual/rhythmic, more glitchy superego type stuff like the redpanda particle etc. and the formentioned updates to the hazarai!

one thing i realised is the multitap isn’t a true multitap, as it only taps a straight rhythm. its just tap delay, MISADVERTISED, a multitap taps out a rhythm. therefore i want an actual real multitap, because its the whole reason i’m buying a second delay!

Could make the first big delay with separate dry/wet outputs switchable with LR. it would be so useful especially with loops! i can then send to separate amps so they don’t get lost in mix, or step on massive distortion whilst having delay on a separate amp and it not get lost, then maybe switch back to standard stereo for a clean ambient preset..

Here’s my addition for a hazarai deluxe, so many want one!:

I actually don’t think the above ideas are the most important improvements, but to make it more perfect i’d include:

third switch- accesses the looper functions and is in non-latching recording mode (so you press once to record, once to stop record)
(OR a latch/non-latch toggle and just two footswitches)

tap tempo switch- can perform the loop erase function without bypassing when held down instead.

better buffer and volume loss sorted: the cathedral seems to be a lot better, so perhaps they can do better now.

loop controls: set as default to something sensible whilst in other modes-particularly the repeats on full so no attenuation, maybe the preset of the looper can be set to run and not be affected by other modes at all.

expression control!

mod speed on the mod setting

analogue pitch bending delay control on some of the modes for that oscillation sound (keep the stutter on some though.)

something similar to the voices on the reverse reverb, but on the standard mode!

and some new crazy delay variants you’ve perhaps not added yet!

I think it was just input gain, so would affect everything in turn, but really you want to aim for the same level as a guitar so should be similar..
line level and instrument level have that 20-22dBv difference approximately, i would think that you’d turn down to feed it with the similar level to a guitar. then fine tune with the trigger slider.
alternatively you can find an attenuator-like the keyboard’s volume knob and it could have the same effect.

there are lots of other sites on the My bloody Valentine sounds. I was surprised to see a weird version of their song Soon when i clicked on that link under The Horrors.

You would only really need one of those pedals. the reverse reverb setting on the cathedral, a good fuzz and MOSTLY playing technique…when i make MBV sounds it should sound like MBV before i add any effects at all because its all about trem gliding and weird open tunings with unison notes..
you can get a big reverse reverb that i prefer on the smmh when you turn up decay and down the time, but its very string like. on the reverse setting..and a fake normal reverse reverb on the multitap with short repeats and the decay swellling it in.

Kevin shields says he didn’t really use many effects on loveless, except the occasional reverse reverb 100% wet.
