  1. The Guitar Synth side gets demo-ed briefly about two and a half minutes into the clip. Just after he says "envelope control over the attack and decay".

  3. I think one mistake many effect pedal manufacturers make in their NAMM demos is to only show the pedals being used with guitars. Not that the HOG would be that much more interesting, but what about the POG? Don't they know Electronic musicians buy more pedals than guitarists? We're not concerned about stomp boxes "sucking tone" from our precious amps (Tone: often best described as a pound of hiss and hum engineers have to gate out during the quiet parts). These demos are boring even when the products aren't.

  4. Sooooo... ugly pitch shifting and garden-variety low pass filter in a stomp box?

    Whoop de doo...

    Since when is a low pass filter 'synthesis'

    I'll pass.

  5. I've got one. Frostwave FAT sequencer feeding CV sequences into the Expression pedal input to do all sorts of madness from freezing and releasing the audiot mad pitch jumping. All locked to whatever clock my foot could never repeat successfully over a measure.

    I agree most of these demos never show what you can really unlock with some other gear. If you don't want to use CV sequencing.. the expression part can be midi sequenced because the mod wheel midi controller is routed to it as well. Freak it!

  8. I like this sound. Of course, I am very drunk right now.

    I suggeast, humbly, to people who don't like this pedal, to drink lots of Pinot grigio. That wine goes well with this pedal.

    slide.
