Randys Revenge LFO output

Post by Doctor X »

if i got a randys revenge and set the internal dip switches to osc output for the expression pedal tip, can i then use a stereo cable and plug it into the expression pedal input of another pedal, and basically have a LFO running at what would be the full sweep range of the expression pedal?
and i'll get the full speed range and sine/square i set on the randy?

it outputs the LFO via the tip (with maybe the ring optional?), is that what will trigger other pedals? the tip signal?

I thought so. Just the tip. Email them. Quick with the response.

i have that pdf and it gives the info on how to set the randy, but i wanted to know if anyone has practical experience of how it works with the other pedals

for example, if i plug it into the expression pedal jack of the dr s elements, can i get a LFO sweeping the full range from 100% dry to wet?
i imagine that i would have to set the ring also, so perhaps ring sets the width and tip sets the speed.

I've been looking at it, and it seems quite interesting. already have a fooger ring, but still it kinda has my interest. readying that bit on how versatile the cv is sealed the deal.

i'm getting one :lol:

i dont think you can control wet/dry on the cv out. connect ref to osc, and control full range of the lfo using the freq knob. could be wrong. good question, should just email them. :idk:

I know this doesnt really answer the question. I have hooked the LFO out on the Randy to the Four Eyes and I believe it swept a comparable range as my expression pedal control would. And yes you get the sin/square from the Randy. Honestly, I don't remember the details of how to set the Randy.

I'm not entirely clear what you're asking, but if you're asking if the Randy's CV out has the whole range of an exp pedal or the knob it replaces, the answer is yes as far as I remember.

yes, that is exactly the question i was asking!
using the randy set to output CV, as a LFO instead of an expression pedal on another pedal, and having it cover the full range

so thanks for those answers, i'll get the randy at some point soon.

I don't think you'll be disappointed, although I still haven't messed with the CV capabilities yet.

If I could I would. So good. Only thing I wanted was a fine tune knob...so he sent me a schematic. So easy. If I get one I will.
