Presets
Description
My attempt at the "Vibrato" setting on the Univibe
Description
Here is a second Univibe preset. This one is a slightly more "in the pocket" and is more useful because I've added a speed range for an expression pedal. 9/9/2022
Description
Buzzy, galloping tremolo.
Description
Many of the H9 / 'Factor algorithms can mimic envelope and gating characteristics without an integrated compressor. Besides, I've always been a sucker for these Poltergist / Hendrix type of effects, when used sparingly.
The expression pedal mapping simply folds in the depth of modulation. One favorite technique is to set TEMPO ON, then play to the reverse reverb in a call-and-response manner. With precise timing, it's easy to create complex & overlapping phrases out of sparse input. Pauses are followed by a sudden 'gate' after DECAY time completion.
Use the HotSwitch here to kick in an infinite dimensional SIZE, and also add a FEEDBACK loop around the entire algorithm. Detuning and pitch bends can occur over time with expression pedal control over MOD-LEVEL. A beautiful holding pattern pushing a wall of sound; one that churns and recycles.
Disengaging the HotSwitch quickly brings up the reverse envelope once again, followed by the 'gate' slamming shut.
Description
Sample-and-hold style filter modulation.
Description
Expression Pedal Heel: Pitch A = 25 cents
Expression Pedal Heel: Pitch B = (-)25 cents
Expression Pedal Heel: Feedback = 100%
Expression Pedal Toe: Pitch A = 5 cents
Expression Pedal Toe: Pitch B = (-)5 cents
Expression Pedal Heel: Feedback = 0%
Deep vibrato echoes on offset loops that deconstruct over long decay times.
Flex switch doubles the pitch detuning at any given moment ('printed' within loops).
Expression pedal decreases detune while fading out loops to a single echo & slapback pair.
Description
Expression Pedal Heel: Feedback A = 110%
Expression Pedal Heel: Feedback B = 110%
Expression Pedal Heel: Mod Depth= 10
Expression Pedal Toe: Feedback A = 0%
Expression Pedal Toe: Feedback B = 0%
Expression Pedal Toe: Mod Depth= 20
"Utterly without redeeming social value" preset. Crazy vibrato in phase-offset loops.
The Repeat switch latches feedback anywhere from the default runaway setting on down.
EXP PED increases modulation depth while decaying the loops (+ base pitch shifting).
Not for the squeamish, but can be tamed (lower Mod) for fast-syncing phased looping.
Description
This is a blast-from-the-past with one early commercial use of the H910 Harmonizer. It has a dry mix for more of a background effect. The expression pedal is mapped from 30 to 112 milliseconds for both delay lines.
Description
If you have tried to use the trim knob in EQCompressor you know that the lowest it will go is -12dB. That's not enough for a true volume pedal. This preset will go down to zero and up to any level at which you set the trim control. 0 dB is like a passive volume pedal but you can set it to boost up to +12 dB if you want. Also note that, in this preset, the max is 0 dB with the treadle toe down; so that is the equivalent of being in buffered bypass mode. From there the hotswitch add will another 7 dB of boost for a solo. And you thought volume pedals were simple.
Description
The Warbly Spring Reverb
A vintage amp like spring reverb with a little of warble in the repeats. It uses a low mix in order to reproduce a warmer sound from the springs. Sounds great with an analog delay in front of it as the subtle warble from the springs create a fluter like sound. Hope you enjoy.
Description
Instant pitch drops and ramp-up's.
Description
Les Paul > H9 > Vox AC30
Your standard Edge double delay set roughly to the correct tempo of With or Without You.
He kind of favors strats now but the real magic of this tone is 3 things:
1) AC30 driven just a little bit
2) Heavily Modulated Double Tapped delay (1/4 and dotted 1/8th)
3) The Most Important - A pick with grips played upside down so you are scraping away from the strings.
Officially I believe he uses Herdim picks but Dunlop Max Grip does the same thing are more easily available state side.
