RE: whats the effect, kenneth? (OT)

["Liebig, Steuart A." <LiebigSA@Maritz.com>]

in that the amplitude modulation in the vox circuit is so extreme that is
virtually cuts the signal to zero in the deepest setting. what you get is
that very on/off wobbly sound (which btw was used in combination with a
noise gate by johnny marr to get his trademark stutter). i have a demeter
tremulator pedal in addition to a de-cbs'ed super twin w/ a blackface trem
circuit,
and neither of these trems do the stutter like the vox. i don't know what's
out there in tremelo-modelling land these days, but i would think someone
would have taken the time to digitally cop this classic effect by now.


** you could check out the fulltone supatrem. it has both hard and soft
waves (i guess square and saw?). the hard gets a pretty cool gating sound .
. . and you can mix the effect versus straight signal. 

the (allegedly) soon-to-be-released mm4 from line6 is supposed to have a
trem based on the vox trems . . . 

i don't know the sound that's being discussed, so i don't know if the
supatrem would do - - it may be worth investigating tho', it is akiller
trem.
