Let's talk about messing with the knobs on delays.

I love turning the regen way up and then slowly turning the delay time way down, then back up right before everything explodes. Fuzz + crazy chorus settings + delay trick = lasers, huge lasers, fucking shit up. Obviously this seems very dangerous because it's just an infinite feedback loop very quickly escalating, so turning the delay time back up at the right time is very important. Does anyone else do this or am I just a crazy bastard?

So fun. I really wish the Headrush 2 would do it, but luckily I have a DMB now and it does it and more! Goodness it's great!

It's like it messes with the delay know for you! :love:

Do you know about the "easter egg" sequencer-ish thing?

I hate when delay can't self-oscillate :oldrant:

i love my Disaster Transport because it self-oscillates beautifully and you can mess it up even more with these crazy modulations from hell

In an old band of mine, for the first 10 minutes all I did was do self-oscillation:

One day i'll have a space echo and an army of gnomes to make sure it's in perfect condition / they will make me new tapes and junk. Some day.
