Strymon Zelzah & DIG: No talk noodle with an OB-6

video upload by Richard DeHove

"I've been slowly trying to come up with the best but minimal effects replacement for the OB-6 internal effects. I like the OB-6 disortion but the others don't really inspire. The combination of the two Strymons might be the answer. On this little noodle three sounds are played live on the OB-6, dry then with the Strymon Zelzah and DIG. The Strymons are on the same settings for all three sounds. You can see the settings on the Zelzah pretty clearly. For the DIG the two big knobs are showing the secondary function positions - so the left knob indicates dotted eighth-note base delay and the right knob a flat filter response. Modulation is light and the type is 12-bit in ping-pong mode.

The first sound features the maximum possible OB-6 distortion :) Other than this the OB-6 plays no effects and there's nothing added in post - just the Strymons and the OB-6. The second sound has some light distortion and is in unison mode. The third sound is a classic little proddy-squelch thing with a theme that's a nod to Gary Numan.
