Boss slicer

[Astricii]

Sounds just like Boss slicer to me. maybe an EQ to isolate the highs?

my $.02, Midi Murf. More expensive fo sho but it's like a slicer where YOU decided the patterns it holds. you program the sequences and what have you. fuckin eh right.

The sound in the first few seconds sounds like a dry bass signal through a slicer, but then at 0:16 it turns into this noisier sound. I was wondering if the slicer is able to not only slice the sound up, but also alter the initial tone.

Does anyone know how HEALTH get this bass sound in "In Violet":

I know it's a bass through a BOSS Slicer, but I'm wondering if they are using any other effect pedals on the bass signal, or is it possible to get such a sound just with the Slicer?

He uses a Moog Ring Mod. Maybe some delay and stuff too. Honestly, you could almost get that sound by just running feedback through the Slicer. I think "In Violet" is 33? Don't remember.

For awhile, the Slicer WAS my tremolo. You can totally get those sounds from it. I quit using it because there are too many damn knobs for live use for me. It was often hard to get the mix/volume right. It's on our other guitarist's board now; he's way better at using it with guitar than I was.

If you turn the tempo way up, you can get some sweet modulation.

I am thinking of buying one, but since it's pretty expensive I'm not completely sure. And what have you meant with:

I think the Setting Number of the slicer for the Song "in violet" is 33

Oh, ok, thanks!

What about like, for crazy stereo ping-pongy nonsense? Can any pedal do this besides a Slicer?

[bigchiefbc]

The Murf has stereo outs, so can get pretty close to the slicer.

Uhhh, what else. Boss PN-2?

My Alesis Ampliton can do all kinds of crazy panning patterns, but that's more of a table-top thang than an actual pedal.

[rfurtkamp]

Only thing close (and I have one) is a Digitech Time Bender on the Envelope Delay mode - you can run the onboard harmonizer to step sequence including random patterns.

It gets retardedly wild, especially with multi-head panning in stereo.

And I thought I extinguished GAS for one of those...

So wait, you can strum in patterns, that then pan? Strum-pattern panning YES PLEASE.

[rfurtkamp]

Yea, strum pattern random harmonized panning.

Pardon the lack of trim on the front end, I was lazy.

The thing with my Roland GR-55 synth through it can be mindblowing.

Suppose I shoud add using a patch like this and the expression pedal where you fade the harmonizer in and out can be stupidly brutal, especially if you alter the delay time too, but I was again very lazy.

I don't get the comparison of Slicer and MuRF. They're just too different. They are both sequenced effects of course but I can't get Slicer sound from MuRF and vice versa. For rhythmic stuff I prefer Slicer. And it gets like billion times better in stereo. And if you use it in mono put some crazy envelope filter after it. I tried it with Robot Factory Wormhole and was blown away.

I was able to get them to sound reasonably similar. When the envelope knob on the Murf is all the way counter-clockwise, it does the Slicer effect pretty damned well. But I agree that for stuff like that, I prefer the Slicer, which I why I sold the Murf and kept the Slicer.

[Muse FTW]

I think one day I'd like to try the Goatkeeper running into the trigger in of the Boss DSD3 while all of this runs into the Murf.

In a feedback loop which contains a boss slicer and another feedback looper, with this chain you just described. FUN ALL DAY.
