Subject: Needing other delay
recommendations (was Re: DL4 question)
I was a little dissappointed by the lack of smooth delay time/pitch changes
when I got my DL-4. I think they should have made some of the patches shift
smoothly and left others for sonic mayhem. Basically I would have liked it if
they just made the delay time control operate the same as it does on the
pedals being modeled. It's sort of redundant for me though as I have another
analog delay, and an RDS 8000 that do it quite nicely. About the
Electrix Mo-FX, can midi signals be used to make it cycle through a sequence
of various delay times, creating a melodic stepping effect as the sampled
sound jumps up and down to various speeds? I've always wanted to get my hands
on a device that could do this. Anyone one here use the Adrenalinn? Can it do
this? Does anyone have a favorite unit for multi-tap delays with
individual pitch shift for each tap? See, I figure if I can hook up enough
delay boxes in the right combination and with the right type of automation, I
won! 't have to play guitar at all -except one note. Then I can
just mess with pitch shift and delay time parameters in various
ways and keep resampling and redelaying the sound. Then once I
get a nice long loop going I can just sit on stage and stare the
audience down, or make origami, or do shadow puppetry. Seriously though, multi
taps with individual pitch shifting and panning, the ability to
create melodies with delay time adjustment via the knob and also via
midi messages from a sequencer for delay time "stepping," what can do all
this? (crossing his fingers that it will cost under a grand) - Kirk

of the only delays I've used lately that behaves this way (and
synchs to
a MIDI clock) is the Electrix Mo-FX You can get really
interesting delay
effects by screwing with the knobs (all accessable via
MIDI) or changing
the MIDI clock, which is an automatic feature of the
Repeater.
(the Repeater part is sarcasm)
