anybody here can tell the differences and/or the similarities between the Hexe Revolver and the Dwarfcraft Grazer?
The Hexe is super cool, but quite hard/rare to get. I was taking a look at the Grazer, which seams to do similar stuff.
They're both samplers, but I don't think they could be any more different in function and, more importantly, their sonic capabilities.

Hi Casanova,
thank you for the reply! Well, now that I look at the Hexe video... this kind of sampling sounds more intriguing and useful for my needs. Kind of more fluid and not so glitchy as the Grazer.
I also have a Mandala and a Raptio (which I love, especially the Hold function, since years it has a fix place inside my pedalboard).

The Hexe is like a much higher fidelity and dramatically expanded version of what is happening in your Raptio or Mandala. Its definitely worth the wait/price as nothing does everything it does. If you're looking for a more affordable version of a similar idea then the Red Panda Tensor would be more in that arena than the Grazer.

The beauty of this genre of pedals is that they are all so different from one another.

@whoismarykelly thank you for your comments! I was checking a video, and yes, the Tensor get's a lot more into Hexe territories!

Actually in the Grazer I miss it goes only high with the pitch and not down...

Perhaps look at a Charlie Foxtrot for real-time processing that does pitch drops and rises.

Not mine but if you buy one new that's about what they cost. I think my DX was $485 including shipping when I got it. Exchange rate differs day to day though.

+1

You should really figure out what kind of glitch sounds you want to make before you try to buy one, because all of them specialize in different things.

FWIW, I like to throw the Pigtronix E2D in the glitch category. Although it's structured primarily as a delay, there are a lot of ways to misuse the pedal that can do a lot of glitchy, mangly stuff. For most of those you need the remote switch that lets you loop the delay line.

E.g., while the delay line is looped, you can quickly tap reverse over and over and it sort of re-records the direction reversals onto the loop. Similarly, if you mess with the time knob while the delay line is looped, it re-records the time changes onto the loop.

It's a super-deep pedal in terms of range (though very user friendly)

That sounds pretty rad. I remember using the Digitech PDS delays sorta like that but they didn't store the manipulation in the loop.

Yeah totally. Been using my PDS to do that. It's pretty neat!

Too late.
The Tensor is sold out everywhere, ordering directly from Hexe would take too long. So ... I got it from here! :animal:

This for sure. Plus you get to talk to Piotr who is a cool ass dude.


I need a glitch pedal. I sold all of them. Sad face.
