Hi,

I just got this pedal in a trade and am thinking of cool ways to use it in my band.

Im thinking for solos or lines that i want to stand out a bit, also ive got some really cool bits that im thinking i could use the whammy changing the odd note etc(kinda inspired by tool)

But i do have an ls-2 lying around doing not that much if i put some distortion and the whammy in the loop set to the octave up kinda be similar to a guitar and thicken the sound but im thinking it might be waste of the whammy?

Also anyone got any suggestions how do u use yours?

Just for info its not the bass whammy i believe its a whammy 4?

Andy

Listen to Brian Cook. He uses the OCT harmony a lot. In down mode it helps get really heavy, in up harmony mode, it helps you cut through.

I use the Whammy a lot. Combining the up octave shift with distortion is great. Making whale calls with delay is cool too. And sometimes just letting out the inner guitar player is great. Like this: YouTube - ‪these arms are snakes- mescaline eyes (live)‬‏ starts about 2:03.
