Is there a cheap (behringer cheap) Freeze copy?

Post by whoismarykelly »

I need a freeze circuit for a custom pedal I'm building and I'm wondering if any of the cheap import companies have copied the Freeze. Nothing has turned up cheaper than an EHX but I'm guessing they have a pretty solid lock on google searches for Freeze. Is there anything out there?

At this point, if anyone was going to do it, I'd put my money on Mooer et al, not Behringer.

The Sound Freezer is a weird one. I can't find demos anywhere, no idea what it sounds like, but apparently you can find it in obscure places - http://overstockguitars.com/product/x-v ... d-freezer/

I got my freeze on eBay for $60. Might be a good idea to just wait it out.

Got it. I poked around a bunch today and it looks like the Freeze is just what I need. Plan is to stuff a Freeze and a Raptio into one box so I can use both at the same time. Would be two Raptios but a freeze costs less for the freeze part and also has latching. Gotta get my glitch/stuttered freeze riffs on!

The Boss GT series can do both Freeze and Raptio with its 'Sound Hold' FX option and some routing trickery. Ignoring the other thousand options it has, a brand new GT-1 is cheaper than a Raptio.

I'm planning to assemble this composite pedal in a 1590BB or 1590D to fit on a packed board. Def not buying a big multieffect for this. Also need to do both effects at once with switches a few inches apart.

This thread has introduced me to the Raptio and IT IS ALL I'VE EVER WANTED. Then, I read the rest of the thread.

As a Freeze/Superego/DD5/DD6 glitcher I want what whoismarykelly is making and dammit now I can't stop thinking about it.

Raptio is real cool. I don't miss mine, exactly (probably would if I did more live stuff) but I would love to have another someday.
good deals are here.
flesh couch is here.

I use it explicitly because its one of the best tools for predictable live results. I have a judder and a revolver and other stuff at home where I can tinker more but the Raptio does what I want perfectly every time when I'm playing a show.

I feel like its something MASF could easily make themselves - just a Raptio deluxe or a Raptio 2 or something. But they're far away and there is a language barrier so I'm inclined to just cobble it together myself and upgrade to some panel mount pots and switches all around.
