New IRON ETHER Pedal: Arcing Prisms

First setting I’ve settled on, used with an expression pedal. Heel-down is a nice slow flanger, toe-down shifts to a ring mod sound with some bubbly overtones. Very nice.

Note that the knobs are fairly sensitive, especially in hexagon mode.
 
Got a few moments today to get into the music room and play around with the Arcing Prisms for the first time. Set up my phone to capture some of what at it does and maybe give everyone a feel for what kinds of sounds are in @Taylor Livingston 's little box in terms of bass fun.

First with no other effects:


Second with more of the kind of chain I'd work with. In this case, Frazz Dazzler fuzz into Xerograph Deluxe into Arcing Prisms into a Nimbus SE:



This isn't really meant to show off the 'playing' obviously since it's more or less a quick noodle, hold then knob twist but you can sort of get some vibe for what you could do with this.
