That's actually a pretty sweet idea. Kinda like that sound at the end of an EQD demo hahaha

interesting point,Muddeh. I actually saw a demo of a modded Bassballs that sounded really unique and awesome. I nothing of mods n' such,so not sure what was done. But the distortion sounded fuzzier,and the filter effect was INSANE :cool:


You might be able to do this with some fuzz, two bassballs and a Boss LS-2. Admittedly more work than having it all in one pedal, but it would be pretty badass. I love running multiple filters in parallel. Done that with my Sea Machine and Behringer SynthBass clone, and it sounded pretty spectacular. If I do say so myself.

It would be like running a clip through all the extra plugin effect filters in audacity like pitch, reverb, delay, flanger , and then like sometimes doubling the clip and taking sections of that double and reversing and then splicing stuff together and adding effects in between all with some sort of smart adjustable randomness that always sounds good or interesting in real time. basically like a looper with an expression controlled clean blend and all these fucked up random effects in between which you can program to behave in a certain way? :idk:


You could use a multi effectunit like a Digitech RP-90 or something for that and mod it with an external pedal to control the whole mess you create? I could imagine it being pretty easy once you figured out how to control the behavior of the multi effect...

Would an iPhone / iPad app do the trick?


i don't know...i don't have an iPhone or iPad. i'm so paleo in terms of my portable tech that my cell phone doesn't even flip. anyway, i'm thinking of something that's a standalone box. the idea came to me from the application on one of the high-end tremolos--i forget whether it's the Goatkeeper or what--where you can draw the waveform with a knob. it'd be so much simpler with a touchscreen, where you could actually see the waveform.

That would be crazy and awesome!!

The squarewave mode on my memory boy does what I hear this as, but maybe I don't understand the exact sound you're talking about :idk:

I believe it's the Sonic Crayon Hollow Earth that lets you draw the waveform with a knob. Also agree that it would be simpler with a touchscreen. Or you know what would be awesome for drawing tremolo waves? Not that it would work... but an Etch-a-sketch would be perfect! That's all I used to draw when I was a kid... not that I knew what they were... but still...

well, that combines the two concepts: a viewscreen with a knob/knobs.

multiple inputs are multiple. and good. the more access points for something, the better...i always hate, e.g. software which has only one place to enter a value and it's buried three layers of dialog box deep when it could be in a palette on top.

double/triple flange with a switch option for the waveform from sine, triangle, square, step to random

whammy pedal with a programmable interval sweet based on chords and user inserts, like it sweeps through the notes of a 7th chord as you move the expression pedal. different slots could even be chords, so with some fancy footwork, you could just program all the chords for the song into the pedal, and just play one note. of course there might be some maHOOsive tracking issues.

(probably exists) a loop pedal where each recorded bit is on it's own independant time loop. like i can have a 2.5 second loop, and record a 5 second loop on top of it, so the total loop ends up being the 5 sec one once, and the 2.5 one twice. so i can layer up some excellent polyrhythms

tremowah.

a sort of tremolo/slicer thing where you can tap in a certain rhythm and thats how the tremolo chops up your signal

tremverb. reverb intensity dependant on sine wave depth and frequency.
