DigitechWhammy Ricochet/Dirty Robot!?!

Post by neonblack »

Looks pretty fun! Not as many options as the pitch fork but I'm not in Van Halen so...

yes please.

MSRP
$187.44

That's not bad at all.
This is a very impressive collection of Roto Toms. That's 21 Roto Toms in all. That is only $33.00 a Roto Tom.

The cat is out of the bag!

Specific to this forum: In addition to all the cool stuff the Ricochet does, we also discovered why certain digital pedals don't play nice with fuzzes and fixed them. PSU noise? Gone. Strange noise when a fuzz is post Whammy? Gone.

Thank Leaves Turn (pd~) for these discoveries, he spent a lot of time getting this guy right!

:erm: That's the current moniker these days.

Either way, sounds like good news to me. :thumb:

Can you do it on a black, white, or bare metal enclosure? I have a theme going on :cool:

I mean obviously it's not a deal breaker

I feel like this pedal is my reward for not jumping on a pitch shifter already. The only dedicated shifter I've owned was the bass whammy and I loved it but...too big.

So this can handle baritone okay right?

Seems nice, the Whammy is still the coolest sounding digital pitch shifter around I'd say.
No MIDI and no dry / wet or mix volume I guess though, right? (especially the volume would have been great)
good deals with: the_brow, phantasmagorovich, alexsga, DarkAxel, goroth, The Wood Wizard, Tendollarcat, vbps, monkeydancer, intothegroove, Brobee

No MIDI, that is reserved for the big Whammy's. No mix, mix isn't really a Whammy thing and I really want this to be smack dab in the Wham Fam.

I call this look "Brushed Black Cherry" and it will look awesome as the only red pedal on your black/white/metal pedalboard! ;) Yes it will handle bari and bass just fine.

Okay, the "classic" glitchy mode with slower rise and fall did sound really cool.
