Is there such a thing as a consistent glitch pedal?

Re: Is there such a thing as a consistent glitch pedal?
Depending on your definition of glitch could you “fake “ it with something like the Goatkeeper trem?
There’s enough time divisions for it to seem like the volume dropout is “random” to the listener,
and the faster rates could seem like a repeating stutter, especially if you incorporated the trem’ s pattern into the composition of the song itself.
You could definitely get repeatable results with the Hexe Revolver or the MASF Possessed, but to echo others, it would be just a small sliver of their total capabilities.

See, this is why this is the best board for all gear questions and occasional snark. Y'all are awesome and this board is "WOLRD FAMOUS" for a reason.

Re: Is there such a thing as a consistent glitch pedal?
Its not clear what you want to be consistent about the glitching but there are a lot of pedals that do various things consistently.
Hexe ReVolver Auto setting and Charlie Foxtrot fill and dump the buffer in repeating intervals based on setting so you get a rhythmic triggering effect.
Hexe Glitch, KOG Mini Glitch, and Masf Raptio can all be set for a specific buffer length triggered at any moment. This lets you set an intensity of stutter and get the same stutter on your source each time you tap.
Drolo Stammen and S3N Super Flutter offer tap tempo for the stutter speed.

I flipped my Revolver 2 just because I went through a zen phase, but I always like the ability to make something glitch in the same way or be more random with the Hexe stuff.

"rhythmic triggering effect" = Spot on.

ReVolver II is the all time greatest glitch pedal IMO. You have a random time, random speed, and random time/speed options in the mix for varying levels of chaos from just impossibly fast trem picking effects to completely off balance non-rhythmic results with every tap.goroth wrote:I flipped my Revolver 2 just because I went through a zen phase, but I always like the ability to make something glitch in the same way or be more random with the Hexe stuff.

There is a listing in Canada for a Hexe Revolver DX and Vario for $1,000.gila_crisis wrote:I was checking reverb.... people are mad...1000$ for a second hand Revolver?!???

Re: Is there such a thing as a consistent glitch pedal?
There are always people trying to make ReVolvers into big flipper pedals but there are plenty that sell for around what they cost new. And when they're listed for $500 that's not even a flipper price. I think based on the exchange at the time my first ReVolver II cost $485 shipped from Piotr. They're just expensive pedals to start but they're the best.

You can fake a consistent glitchiness with the Zoom MS pedals. I have a few patches on my MS100BT where I stack a Trigger Hold Delay > Reverse Delay > Ice Delay. If you set the delay time to multiples (e.g, 300ms > 1200ms > 600ms) its fairly consistent with good timing.
The HX Stomp/HX Effects Shuffling Looper can sort of do it (not as predictable or consistent) by assigning "Drift" = 0 to a footswitch. That will prevent the glitched sample from changing.

Re: Is there such a thing as a consistent glitch pedal?
TKOG Mini Glitch has a "footswitch mode" where pressing the stomp switch will engage the effect (the other modes are "threshold" or "random"). It's a momentary switch. So your glitches can come in whenever you hold the switch down, and you have clean signal when you let go.
Whether the glitches are glitching how you want is another question, requiring knob tweaking.

I do something similar with a Zoom G3, using the seq filter or random filter -> a couple of delays.ManFromMars wrote:You can fake a consistent glitchiness with the Zoom MS pedals.
