Since this is a huge effect and has a lot of sounds. What would you fellow efx nerds want to hear from it? How well the tracking is in whammy? Can it do 5th/1up like the Bass whammy? oh, a bass whammy challenge?
I should have it by Wednesday hopefully... |

Any 6th or minor 7 chords would be fine- a lot of monophonic octavers can track a root and octave double-stop and sometimes even track a root/fifth double-stop. Tossing other notes in there will test how well it tracks polyphonically. |

I wanna hear if the arpeggiato sounds can outdo the S&H on the Prometheus

Oh, and having just gotten an expression pedal, I gotta say it opens the Pitchfactor up to whole new levels of usefulness. |

|  | I'm a tumbler, born under punches | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Northern California | | | I'd like to hear samples in the low register, and possibly with a EQ heavy on the bass.
The only band I've got where I'd be able to use the Pitchfactor would be my ambient dub project and I'm just afraid it would be too muddy.
I've been thinking of getting one for my guitar board, and if I could actually get use out of it on bass I think that would seal the deal. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
