Red Witch Synthotron

Post by Dandolin »

This has apparently been in the works for some time, and interestingly enough, was at one time called the Red Witch Prometheus (oops).

(Naming :facepalm:)

Apparently coming late this year--looks like an interesting all-in-one guitar synth solution:

+8va. -8va, amplitude mod (trem--but can it do autoswell?) and filter w/s&h

--maybe not as many bells and whistles for control of any if the units as other more focused pedals, but could be an interesting one stop option for teh analog synthies. Might be one of those whole is greater than the sum of parts thangs like the, well, Subdecay Prometheus Octasynth.

Anyone care to join me in drooling speculation? :drool:

I saw a glimpse of this in a friend's copy of Premier Guitar a couple of months ago, and was intrigued. Of course, I'd want it to work on bass. Very intrigued by the s/h function...

Yeah--this definitely seems like it has potential, but I'd really have to hear it to judge how all the parts work together before getting too excited....

Looks pretty cool, I like synthy things. Interested to hear if it's much different from anything else around.

Dealt with a broken Empress Chorus V1 and had the horrible titan triple delay (FX loop was killer but the delay was more like a dano sound wise)

This one looks dope once again i hope it will stand up the expectations and not make me reverse GAS on his stuff once again...

Man, I'm stoked all these dealers are making pedals that make your guitar sound less like a guitar! Outstanding
