I'm glad that the DD-500 is not afraid to get lofi and glitchy, as I've seen in demos.

Re: Boss DD-500
I had to cancel my original order, but picked one up yesterday to put in place of my board's main delay (No Memory), I love my no memory, but it's a ritual to get it working, and it sometimes coughs up on me, which is not fun live.

Re: Boss DD-500
Ooh. Definitely would love to know how it stacks up with stutter glitch classics you have known like Judder Possessed Raptio Ct5 (did I miss any?)

Re: Boss DD-500
The hold/stutter effects are cool. You can add 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 note stutter effects via the control switch. I might have to add a extension switch to my board for this purpose although I cant imagine the DD500 replacing my Raptio for dedicated glitch sounds in my set.

If I can get my hands on a judder for a while I can always shoot a video comparing them.

Re: Boss DD-500
Yea, suspected it'd be stupidly tweakable as I'm using the same software on the GT-001 and the depth of control is asstarded.

You can get a better stutter effect with MIDI if your controller has a "momentary" switch:whoismarykelly wrote:The hold/stutter effects are cool.

Hold down the switch -> play your stuff -> release the switch
The beauty of that is that the time you hold down the switch will be the speed the stutter will have.
I haven't received mine to see if this is possible but I can't see why it couldn't be possible if it receives CCs for Record and Play.

Re: Boss DD-500
Im not going to add a midi controller to my board to achieve an effect I achieve perfectly with the Raptio already. I prefer a fixed stutter speed. The music I play is generally too technical to focus on how long Im holding down a switch for in order to set a stutter rate.ramonovski wrote:You can get a better stutter effect with MIDI if your controller has a "momentary" switch:whoismarykelly wrote:The hold/stutter effects are cool.

Re: Boss DD-500
Revolver is why I don't gas for other stutter pedals. Well I mean I do, but not enough to do anything about it.Inconuucl wrote:I've never had a Revolver.resincum wrote:RevolverDandolin wrote:Ooh.

Wanted one for ages though.
One of these days I'll have a board that's only stutters.
One can never have enough glitch though...

Re: Boss DD-500
Yeah, it was not an order, just a suggestion, lol.
Are you syncing stuff with MIDI clock? A click track maybe?

Re: Boss DD-500
Nope. No click or backing tracks live. My problem with the "hold for as long as you want the stutter to be" functionality is that it depends on lifting off a pedal in time rather than pressing down on one and that would be like stepping on the offbeat while playing on the downbeat at 200bpm. Just not going to happen if I hope to also put on a good show lol.ramonovski wrote:Yeah, it was not an order, just a suggestion, lol.

Re: Boss DD-500
What would you guys like to see in a demo? Now that I've had the DD-500 for a couple of days and are more or less familiar with it. Everything is pretty user friendly save for the stupid custom pattern function, but that could be a lot worse.

Self oscillation.
2 delays stacked.
Looper.
Looper + delay.
