    Ive decided that even though I like the Goat for its ability to simulate a guitar/bass sound out of one intrument, I wouldn't prolly use that in a band. Practice lately has been cool with just the Hema, which I love cus of the boost. I just set up a nicely overdrivin' midrangey type sound, and use the boost to go from big to HUGE sounding.

    Problem is, I have nothing to add some epix movement during a slow part of a song.

    Ive been looking at flangers, especially the electric mistress cus of the chorus capability as well, but am trying to find something with a depth AND rate thing. BF-3 is high on the list too.

    Anyone have any other recomendations for adding some deep, slow, shwoooshy movement?

    Thanks in advance :D

    I would get one of the tremolos that has fancier rhythmic patterns, or maybe the Pigtronix delay with its 2/3 pattern.

    The Nano Stone moves! And it's fairly cheap. Lots o' control over the rate.

    I wasn't thrilled with the Mistress. Boo did have lots of positive things to say about it. Check his soundclick for clips.

    another Phaser vote. I love my Maxon PT-9... my old Nano Small Stone was cool too.

    I thought trem when I read the thread tittle, but slow and swooshy for me would be a filter of some kind with a really slow LFO sweeping it. I'd go with a quasar, as the feedback control lets it get phase-y or filter-y, good range of rates, and a blend.

    :meh:

    Phaser seems to be the consensus so far. Been listening to some clips on the nets, and I like what I hear. I might just pick me up a quasar just cus it seems like the most versitile.

    Just gotta figure out if I can fit it on my board. The in/out/power jack position seems like it could be a problem....

    A flanger or phaser AFTER a tremolo would be awesome.

    + 1 to the Nano Small Stone.

    I love mine, especially with a good bit of distortion in front.

    Chorus, high depth, slow rate.

    Or if you want something more fancy, i've heard the MuRF do some swishy stuff that was really nice too.

    yeah the MuRF can add movement. it is easy to add too much movement though.

    Oh yeah, the Murf is perfect for "movement"! It is tricky to set up the tone, however & it's not programmable - so don't count on easily repeatable settings.
