I replaced the CT5 with emptiness. I saw it, preordered... Thought it was exactly what I wanted or even needed. I got it, brought it to rehearsal, tried using it for harmonized delays, sounded way too cheesy to use for anything serious, tried the looping, had constant trouble understanding how to quantize or getting the quantization to work, ended up using it for a simple reverse delay for a while, found some amazing settings I could never use in the band, made a sweet drone track with it as a farewell and sold it for a small profit on Reverb
(then it got lost and I had to refund the dude and never got it back and lost vast majority of the money as well)

Anyway - same thing DADGBD actually described I'd say. It just took me much longer and was much more painful.

I like the initial stutter mode from the demo. Have had that sound in my head before. Could the same effect be achieved with a repeat percussion and a freeze? Can't imagine having much use for the weird pitch-dippy stuff.

Is the airplane and the skull some 9/11 truther wingdings shit?

Is this what Dandy Warhols sound like? I've never heard them before except for that video with the big dance number.

Their first record is a lot of fun.

For looper see these 2 videos:

The best thing IMO is that every knob is controllable by MIDI, so need to bend over and adjust things, but in a table top and some external controller you could get a lot of fun too.

Harpeggiator is where the glitch madness is though, just set every knob to RNDM. If you want to get something more musical then start "decomposing" by setting fixed values instead, one by one.

Saw this post earliet. Looked around for a 2nd band TF out of curiosity. Found a new and minty one with an aux switch oh so cheap, curiosity turned to GAS, said fuck it, sold my DL4 and Afterneath and bought it. In like 4.5 hours.
I'm STOKED.

Enjoy.
Delays are good but Looper is at another level.

Delays at 0ms with modulation can be lots of fun too.

The Timefactor is getting a revival because of the new looper. I have been an avid DL4 user for years, though sometimes I want to swap it for something else and maybe I should try the Timefactor for a change. I have been toying with the idea of pickup up a Space again as well (would be my 3rd). Then, gee, why not just get an H9? Well, the interface doesn't look nice without an ipad and I don't have an ipad. I have a friend that owns an H9, maybe I should pay him a visit and see how I like putting my hands on it.

I think the only feature they have added to the Timefactor since its first release in 2007 it's the reverse function.
Other than that, it's just fixes here and there.

I did get rid of my TF and PF and now I have an H9. I make all my presets with the editor in a windows PC and if I need to change anything, I can do it with the 3 small push buttons and the encoder. An iOS device is not needed, but it could be handy.

I thought the looper was updated for the Timefactor when it was released for the H9. Pretty sure, but I could be wrong.

Good to know you get a long with your H9 without iOS. I wished the H9 was in the Space enclosure with that big display and 10 knobs. Still a bit tempting anyway.

I know right!

I love the huge display and the look of the Space. I would totally buy a white version.

Holy crap, DarkAxel... it's like you and I are living parallel lives.
I had almost the exact experience with my CT5. I've just been too ashamed to say anything :lol:
Well. Except the part about it getting lost after selling it on Reverb... sorry to hear that.

Does the H9 have the same looping capabilities that the TF has?

Can loop direction be flipped in the same algorithm? Looks like, and that's a trick that I can't do in the Eclipse. (Six years and no update. WTF, Eventide?)

Hmm, what do you mean with "in the same algorithm"?
Load your looper preset, hit record, play, change direction and it will do "reverse", change direction again and it will go back to normal.

And yes, the no updates for the Eclipse is a big WTF.
