Oh for the LOVE of flanger... Tortuga Content

[excane]

So Brian releases the Subdecay Quantum flanger and THEN Tortuga has a PERRRTYYY awesome sounding flanger.... dayyyummm.

I'm burning the cash this week like a hole in my pocket....

That sounds NICE. Not '80s spandex shit.

that was a lot lusher and smoother than i expected.

i dunno if i'm nuts about the basic flanger sound, but i like the way it can span the chorus<->flanger range and it does some really interesting stuff in its extreme ranges.

When I first saw "dual flanger", I thought for a second that you could blend the two flanger signals together, which would let you do through zero. Then I watched the vid and saw that you can only have one or the other on at once. :sigh: Oh well. That would have been cool.

That is precisely why Tortuga has always irritated me.

Yep, I thought the same thing. Honestly as much as I love flanger, the whole through-zero thing is something I could do without. I have the Jack Deville Mod Zero and it has a SERIOUS spike when going thru zero, so much that it's unuseable in a live setting - almost threw the speakers out of my cab during a rehearsal.

This sounds like it's useable through the entire range (which I'm a big fan of)

Agreed......Not to mention the price.

Sounds really good? CHECK.

Worth 3 bills? HELLZ to the NO.

Interesting, the through-zero on the Flanger Hoax actually has a bit of a volume-dip, but it sounds awesome. Sounds like the signal is being sucked down a black hole. That's why I love it. The FH really is fucking awesome, I just wish it was 1/3 of its current size, and worked on 9v.

I think this about pretty much everything cool EHX releases.

For some reason I hate Tortuga effects. I don't care how they sound they just irritate me. This flanger irritates me because I actually like the sounds.

[goroth]

I know why it is now. It feels like their pedals have been designed by a committee. The features committee (featuring lawyers) and the hipness committee (featuring accountants).

[coldbrightsunlight]

Didn't expect much, but this sounds reeaaally nice. But for me, all Tortuga pedals sound pretty great, but don't have enough controls. I'd much rather have a couple of extra knobs to change the sound than 2 footswitchable rates.

[sylnau]

That sound nice, but nothing special (just the regular flanging sound).

Yep, I WISH there was a width control (kinda need it for a flanger) cause that's where the magic happens.
