Don't get me wrong, I am all about effects and have owned many, including 2 Moog products. For me the bottom line for a good effect is actual musical application that I could even play a whole song with as opposed to random, too often muddy or out of key, noise-making.
Yes, sometimes a momentary efect, whether a jet engine howl bending to a high harmonic or a simple echo, can really spice up a song and be very cool, but I long ago decided not spend 2-3 hundred bucks-or more-for a moment.
But for those who feel differently--go for it! |

It's interesting, because the FatMan has never interested me as a filter (I like wetter, funkier sounds) but hearing the clip, I completely understand it's appeal for what you do.
And again, the Nocto Loco sounds great. |

And for my other thread, you should have just showed me the fatman clip. 
What is the DANFILTER? |

You both need to tour the UK so I can get you drunk and steal your stuff. |

But I'm hoping the Holley Erectus (1) comes out this year and (2) is as awesome as I'm imagining it to be. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Queens, NY | | | Oh, also, I forgot to demo the VCA in the Warp 9 and try that volume envelope idea you were talking about.
And also also, the keyboard you brought out for comparison was a Yamaha CS01, right? |

How was all this recorded?

And Dan, have you ever used the Moog Ring Mod? If so, what did you think of it? |

No, I've never used any Moog thing until last night when I tried John's filter. Sorry, not helpful, I know.
Another reason that not getting into the MAM's VCA was a failure is that it does some strange ringmod toanz. |

Endorsing Artist: Aguilar, D'Addario, Subdecay, Tonefactor | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Brooklyn, NY | | | as far as the recording, it was a Neumann U77 (a FET mic with a 67 capsule and transformerless out) on my Aguilar db212 and a Bova Ball for talking/ambience. Mic pres were Neve Portico. Each went to a channel on the console, with a Drawmer 1968 on the bus in case we got too loud. Captured in Logic.
