Honestly this is like 80% of why I want the Ibanez ES2. :lol:

Well the Source Audio Orbital Modulator can do the envelope mod thing and that's hardly pixie dust. Envelope controlled pitch shifting is a cool idea in fact why doesn't the POG2 have that? They already have the envelope, they just have to apply it to the effect instead of the whole signal.

THIS

I'm tired of pedals with less than four knobs. More knobs = more control = more sounds = less generic. I'd rather pay more for pedals with more knobs than pay less for ones that feel like they're missing something.

Why aren't there more Ampeg Scramblers and mutron based stuff that isn't DIY?


MORE AMPEG SCRAMBLERS AND FENDER BLENDERS

NEED MOAR FLANGERZ
There are like only 3 different flangers in the whole world. I want MOAR.

I still haven't found the right phaser for me so that means everybody better keep working hard on their phasers.

And I want to see more filters. Everywhere! And not just envelope filters, those are lame (not really but not for me :D ). Greyscales new wah filter-y thing he posted a couple weeks ago looks so freaking awesome. THATS WHAT IM TALKIN BOUT. Cool things like that!

oscillating fuzz.
delay with modulation or additional processing on the repeats...i've got processors for that.
compressors without enough controls to really make them useable. attack and release, PLEASE.
modulation using chip-generated whole-tone arpeggios as "magic" fairy dust. stop with the unicorn-crapping-rainbows sound already.
600ms analog delays that go for $350.
and fucking shimmer reverb must die. NOW.

All of the above.

Currently have a Harmonic Percolator on my guitar board.
Sliders make it look as bad ass as it really is. :animal:

And the (Audrey) Fromel Shape EQ is derived from the Ibanez PQ-9; but (sadly) lacks the sliders of the original:

Still want. Look at that layout/color scheme :love:

Chet Atkins had most of the same effects we do in his 50's studio and he built most of them...

Holy Schnikes wrote:^ Agreed.

I love a wide array of muff and FF variants but I can't imagine them getting much better. Probably get a custom BAT IC muff soon as I don't have an IC option currently but I'll be done after that.

The Tube Screamer is def overdone and underwhelming in my experience. That's probably the only circuit I actively avoid.

Is he doing an IC muff? :snax:

Check out the ModFactor then,I do believe Envelope is an option for all of it's modulation.
