I know some folks on here are fans, and I've considered buying one before, but may have to now! Or risk never seeing them again.

dooooooooooooooooooood

THIS SUCKS SO MUCH

Everyone needs a timebender

first the space station and now this!!!

With the Footswitch this thing is an unstoppable monster

I thought this had been discontinued for a while. Either way, timebender rules. I seriously need to get an expression pedal for it.

It's a keeper for me!

I think it either needed a better looping system, or no looping system at all. That way I won't feel bad about wanted a dedicated looper...

As a stand alone delay it's pretty impressive. They're still going used on fleabay for pretty good deals, or at least mine was anyway. I thought the harmonizer settings for the delays were probably the coolest features.

Speaking of the looper, does anyone know if I can use the stereo outs and have the looped signal going into a separate amp and my clean sound into my regular amp?

I have a dedicated looper and the timebender and that is a great combination

I think the looped signal goes to both amps but I can check it out tomorrow
even though the pedal is stereo it loops in summed mono

glad i got one

Thats pretty much what i plan on doing once the ditto is released in the states.

Does anyone know if an expression pedal can control the setting of the pitch, like if heel down is unity and toe down is an octave up will it gradually shift up ?

I don't have the exp pedal just a footswitch
not sure my tym expression knob will work it

I can dig around a bit

[bugzaney]

no big deal man. i actually figured out how to use my ernieball vpjr as an expression pedal this afternoon, but i got too distracted using it with my rainbow machine to even try it out on the timebender. next time i'll hook it up to the bendah.

nope, you wont be able to shift, you'll go from unity to octave up, but wont get the semitones in between

I love my Timebender, and paid full retail when it was still stupid expensive ($250+). I still love it.

Here's to hoping they come out with something even meaner and with more options instead of dumbed down idiot pedals.

And the 'looper' on delay or damn near anything else I routinely ignore - I'm buying a delay for the delay, not the looper.

There's nothing quite like the Time Bender, it's up there with the venerable Lexicon Vortex as one of my favorite digital units of all time

I generally prefer a dedicated looper now but a few years back when i got my timebender it was my looper and it really turned me on to looping.

It really probably is one of my favorite pedals ever and definitely in the top 3 delays I have played

And they were selling for $150 new around the holidays. Of course I passed. Dang.

[hbombgraphics]

I picked mine up at a local place for $100

which was exactly what I was given at christmas to buy gear that year!!!
