Re: OT Tasty freeze

Har! With Bill on board, I do feel validated. And thanks for the hint. I have been using the hold but didn't notice you could mess with the tempo while it was on.
I just hope they'll come around to letting us use the delay time knobs to turn the loop inside out (reverse).
I also love the modulated delay (just a touch). I can't quite get that sound from anything else I've tried.

Protect those knobs! I had to replace one when the little centering tit on the end of the shaft (inside) got broken. Keep it in a box or on the board.

yeah, eventide kicks ass all over the place!

you can do the glitchy changing the delay time on the eclipse as well. especially good if you attach a cc pedal to the tempo subdivision parameter, then you can change the delay time and it's always quantized. very nice.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Eventide Timefactor in the discussion of  freeze and sample and hold.  I just took the plunge and bought one to replace my dying DL-4, Holy shitsky!  I must have not been paying attention when the virtues of this pedal were being discussed. I like the fact that you can apply a hold function at anytime with any delay algorithm, including reverse delay. I also like the fact that once you have hit the hold button you can use tap tempo to alter the loops length which can create some very interesting artifacts. I have been eying the timefactor for a long time and finally decided that it was time to stop pining for one and pull the trigger.  i can't believe how good this thing sounds and I've only scratched the surface. Now I understand what all the fuss was about.
