Panning Tremolo

The Boss PN-2 is easily one of the coolest pedals i've ever had a chance to come in contact with. Of course they go for like 150$ and over, so i could never buy it. Anybody know of any similar pedals, or perhaps have some schematics :cool:

It's a blast. I need 4000 of them.

Just had the chance to mess around with a Digitech XP 200 Modulator (actually an XP1000 which has all 4 XPs built in). It's in stereo and it has a load of cool phasor, flanger, and trem modes, some that pan. A few modes let you control the speed of the pan from amp A to amp B. Pretty trippy stuff. But the xp200s tend to go for $150+ as well.

didn't behringer release a clone of the PN-2? they ripped off everything else.

i used to have a real one...it was OK for certain applications but not worth what they go for now.

that's why it'd be awesome to get the schematics :lol:

The Marshall Vibratrem will do panning/stereo tremolo. You may or may not like it who knows.

it also has vibrato mode, but its pretty subtle sounding, and in stereo it actually plays one channel vibrato, and the other channel is still tremolo so its kinda weird in that respect.

decent pedal though, you could get a used one for fairly cheap and its mroe durable than a behringer

Also, Ibanez reissued the Flying Pan, which both Phaser and panning trem in one box. I think its around 300, but I've been seeing them going on eBay for like 200 recently.
