I love the sound of volume swells into high feedback delay / massive 100% wet reverbs. It's great for those ambient drone sounds. A problem to me is, if You want to follow a chord progression it easily just turns into a big tonal wash.
So I came up with the following idea for a custom pedal:
- one input, one output, 2 always-on parallel loops (loopA, loop B)
- loop A and B can be seamlessly blended/mixed via an extern expression pedal (Roland EV5) into an expression jack (I don't want a rocker style pedal, prefer external expression control)
- the blending works in 2 ways at the same time, at the send AND the return side of each loop but in opposite direction. Example: When Loop A return is 100%, then is LoopA send 0%, LoopB return 0% and LoopB send 100%
In each loop will be an verbzilla with 100% wet, max decay cave setting. The operation would be like this:
1) play a chord (swelled in via an autovolume pedal) to feed Loop A (which send is 100% open)
2) move the exp pedal in the opposite direction. The loop A return is now 100% open, so that You can hear the first chord now.
3) While the first chord is still ringing You play the next one which now feeds loop B but cannot be heard as Loop B's return is closed
4) move the exp pedal in the opposite direction. You blend in the second chord while the first one disappears.
5) go on with 3) and 4) for each new chord
If You just want the sound be let through as normal You park the exp pedal in the middle, so both loops get 50% and put out 50% all the time.
