Timebender discontinued

[Fuzzy Picklez]

Woah. Guess I should pick one up.
These have interested me forever. I got turned off at the $300+ price tag at my local shop though.
Maybe I'll call and see if they clear out discontinued products at a discounted price.

Shiiiiit. I really been meanin to snag one.

Okay, gave in. Ordered One. Ibanez Echo was disapointing. I send that back so the time Bender is only 40eur additonal.
Thanks for the heads up.

do tell about the Ibanez Echo!

i still can't oversome my general dislike towards Digitech not even after the Digitech PDS 20/20 kind of became a solid keeper for me

Would somebody care to share some favorite settings?
Especially in regard of the harmony section. Really curious how you guys use it. Thanks!

I would love to but I have to remind my self of what they are, I have them stored in presets and like the DL4 once you make the preset you have no visual cue as to what you did

I know the 2 octave up stuff with short delay does a shimmer type sound maybe better than a shimmer
and the low octaves with the dynamic delays are massive

also: Holding down the left footswitch for I think 2 seconds freezes the delay and you can play over it and it responds to the dynamics of what you are doing, which is insanely cool


In defense of digitech, this plus the whammy and supernatural are all pretty much fixed on my board, they make some really great stuff, including the digiverb and digidelay which for the price offer a ton of great features. Plus in my experience their customer service people are incredible to deal with, exp factory was way up on my list as far as awesome sounds, but was challenging to dial in because you had no real visual cue as to what you were doing, and I hate having to dig through a manual just to get a tone.

Harmony settings really aren't something you can keep on tap outside of octave stuff generally IMO, you have to adapt them to what you're doing. I'm partial to thirds and eighths, but I'm not making usual people music with it.

Presets I'd know what was in them if I use them more, there's two in one bank so I can use the expression pedal to do fake echoplex head/knob turning. Think toe down is about 300ms (vs 660 up) with much higher cranked repeats on toe down.

Other than that it's fast enough to dial in I just don't worry about it (and with 4 patches it's always mystified why it had them, other than to say they did)

I use the patches alot, when I get a sound I love I like to lock it in for a while
plus when you have the footswitch you can keep the pedal on the looper and scroll through your patches and have instant access to stuff

Ok this is why i need the footswitch. I use the looper so much when jammng that i dont get to use the fun stuff enough.
